I saw one show here, with Dana Gould and a female comedian whose name I can't remember as masters of ceremony. The show I saw had Ron Funches and David Koepnick. It was a good value. Kumail Nanjiani and his wife and that tall white guy did their Comedy Central show there. On Wed, Mar 21, 2018 at

Re: [TV orNotTV] NoTV: iHeart radio owner files for bankruptcy

I depend on radio to hear new music. There's only one radio station of in Reno that does that, but not as much as they used to do. Why should I listen to radio to hear music I already know when I have hundreds of hours of music I actually like that I can listen to on my phone? Reno has a problem

Re: [TV orNotTV] SKB SNL

I thought it was a great episode as well. My biggest complaint is that they have Kate McKinnon playing everyone. But otherwise I liked the sketch. The Nickelback sketch was memorable. I will even defend the Kyle Mooney sketch. It mostly was the same joke told over and over. I liked how they
