Derek live on location
Derek reports that The Shaughnessy River II is pretty good but rather shallow as compared to the original. He's also looking forward to the third one... He attempted to interview one of the beavers who dammed up the The Shaughnessy River but get's no response. The Nsburg Geological Society is out playing in the water and Derek manages to talk to Ralph live on the air. The Pipesman of whom Ralph is also a member are also there. The "secret" Pipesman get loaded on weekends and take care of the local Highways. Ralph explains that the Nsburg Geological Society is a fraternal organization and that the Nsburg Geological Survey should have recommended against building the Highway in a flood plain. If you are interested in joining the "secret" Pipesman there are recruitment posters up in the Town Hall... both of them.
Traffic
Richter Hammockslam is in the fan boat and having a blast on The Shaughnessy River II. He may have hit one of the people from the Nsburg Geological Society... He's been out there for days. He's the only mechanical thing on the river and says it's awesome.
Live in the Studio
Raphael Crinklestouf is a local inventor and advocate for alternative fuels. He has used fermentation of human and other waste products to run an engine. He get's 90 miles to the turd kettle. He's brought in his apparatus and samples... and opened them in the studio... The studio will now be sanitized by nsburg hazmat.
Coming Up
- Derek will be on location for the annual pipesman time capsule opening
- Nsburg Hazmat will demonstrate how to sanitize a broadcast studio (which was a coincidence, but now very urgent)
