Episode #250: The Push


Look at that! They let me do a quarter-thousand of these suckers! That's right, this is Star Time No. 250, or MML, 11111010, or 0xFA if you prefer. I resisted the urge to turn this into a Very Special Star Time, even though it was perfectly warranted. Instead, it's an all-'60s revue, something we do less often these days, but is always productive. I could think of no better way to celebrate #250, though I'm told we don't look a day over 225.
