Aren't those all the rage in Raymond? Or is it more of a Oaksterdam thang.

She said she did that herself.

Global pop powerhouse Major Lazer, led by Diplo alongside Walshy Fire, Ape Drums, and new member America Foster, are set to provide the musical centerpiece for the Closing Ceremony of the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics. Taking place in Verona, Italy, the performance will be broadcast live on Sunday, February 22, at 2:00 p.m. ET, reaching a massive international audience as the winter games conclude.
The group is expected to deliver a high-energy set featuring their most iconic hits, including the Diamond-certified "Lean On." In keeping with the scale of the event, the performance will reportedly feature several surprise guests, drawing from a deep catalogue of collaborators that includes the likes of Beyoncé, Burna Boy, and Ariana Grande.
This Olympic showcase serves as the official launch for a landmark year for the ensemble. Following the ceremony, Major Lazer will embark on their first extensive global tour in seven years. The 2026 schedule sees the group returning to major festival stages across North America and Europe, including highly anticipated appearances at Coachella on April 12 and 19, and headline slots at Ultra Music Festival in Miami on March 27.
The tour also marks the group’s return to iconic UK and European events later this summer. After hitting the Governors Ball in New York on June 6 and Bonnaroo on June 12, the band will cross the Atlantic for a string of dates including Solidays in Paris on June 27 and Pukkelpop in Belgium on August 21. Fans can also catch them at the Lowlands Festival in the Netherlands between August 21 and 23.
These live dates offer the first opportunity for fans to hear material from their recent mixtape, GYALGEBRA, performed live with new London-based member America Foster. With a reputation for boundary-pushing stage production and a heavy touring schedule through August, Major Lazer is positioned to dominate the 2026 festival season.

And just like that, the US Men's Hockey Team crapped all over the good will they earned on winning the gold medal.

Bay Area radio station to honor Alysa Liu with one-day rename
By Victoria Meza • Published February 22, 2026 • Updated on February 23, 2026 at 8:39 am

Long-running radio station 96.5 KOIT is calling itself “Alysa 96.5” for the day to honor Oakland’s gold medal-winning figure skater Alysa Liu.

A Bay Area radio station will be honoring Olympic figure skating gold medalist Alysa Liu by renaming itself on Monday, according to authorities.
The 96.5 KOIT radio station announced it will change its name to Alysa 96.5 for a day to celebrate Liu. This comes after the 20-year-old delivered a shout out to her hometown on Thursday.
"Alysa Liu has made the entire Bay Area proud, and we wanted to celebrate her historic achievement in a way that reflects just how much she means to this community," 96.5 KOIT Director of Programming Operations Brian Figula said.
Then, Liu’s golden performance at the Olympics was the first for an American woman in individual figure skating since Sarah Hughes in 2002

.Does Raymond even have its own radio station? I mean aside from your neighbors Ham radio.

We usually just use the two cans connected by a string when we share news around the neighborhood.

I think our closest radio station might be out of Mariposa.

[Drunk Monk]

Maybe you could start one. 

You could call it Antlers & Crotches.  Then rename it after Alysa.
