The truth comes out.

So! It seems I was quick to jump on the "Oh hey guys, I have the best new show on CFCR, just saying." type of announcement. That distinct honour belongs to the lovely Jennifer Freeze over on Sunday night's Thrice Removed, who raised over twice what I did for FM-phasis.

A lesson in fact checking.

The show won "Best New Show" at the CFCR volunteer appreciation night.

Awesome!
