I wonder how long she had been waiting to say that for
E: spelling

Katy wouldn’t invite him on for kicks, it’s because he also happens to be an elected official. Pretty sure he’s a selectman in his town in ME.

Correct, Lincolnville, ME.

I'm not so sure about this. I had this on in the background, saw Fishman on, and it reminded me of something I posted recently.
I'm no phan but it seems Katy seems to be!

Katy's definitely a phan, but Fishman is definitely also on Lincolnville's board of selectmen and has been an outspoken activist regarding the ranked choice voting issue. Regardless of Katy's musical tastes, Fish is an excellent choice of guest to speak on the topic.

Katy seems to be!
If Fishman wasn't an activist and also involved in politics/government then she wouldn't have him on, that gives him some legitimacy. But yes, she's been a vocal fan for a long time, hence why she had him on at all.

Yeah, but calling him an elected official is a bit misleading. I actually went and read some of the minutes of their meetings. They're literally voting on stuff like whether to send out postcards to remind people to renew their boating permits.
I wholeheartedly agree with ranked choice voting. But his bona fides as a politician are limited at best. His appearance was more a function of his godly drumming.

Small town government at its finest.

Haha, she was just talking to a different guest, and said "Say it to me in normal moving time." Quoting the Växt now!

That's Jake Sherman -- a writer for Politico and also a big phan

This dude used to wake up at 5am to dose and wake up tripping for class and now he's a got-damn elected official.

Guys, I have the same socks as Katy Tur!

I’m curious if she will drop her normal phish filled nomenclature to Jon or if she will lay off that and try not to phanboy too hard. I hope she goes full tilt and drops mad references to the most legendary drummer in rock history

Bob Weaver!!!—err—achem...

I love Katy Tur's ongoing phishiness, and Fishman's tie. Rank voting sounds great as well!

I would trade my second born for that tie. Or buy it. Anyone know where to get it?

Dagnabbit! Consarn it all!
Give my sub some love? I’ve been trying to get this uploaded to YouTube for the past I don’t know long just so I could post it to r/wildcaughtphish so I could then come post over here and say, “give my sub some love, y’all!” But no... stupid asynchronous internet. Stupid YouTube processing processing processing. OP just ended up beating me to it. Sigh. When I saw her talking to Fish I thought, “finally - my chance to get people to learn about r/wildcaughtphish.” Well, I’ll get y’all one day. I’m always on the look out. Paz y musica!

Wash your feets, they drive me to a frenzy.

I enjoyed Fish double-clutching on the “Mr. Mainer” for a split second...then it kicked in and he smiled.

This is so surreal. Ranked Choice Voting has been an interest of mine ever since being introduced to the concept in college, and now the drummer of my favorite band is one of the most vocal activists about that very niche issue.
Really excited for this, but I also don't have a cable subscription and I'm at work, so really really hoping someone uploads the full segment.
If you're ever without a way to watch cable normally in the future, This website is great for streaming the major news networks for free.
yup that's where I just watched it
This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing, I'm not a news junkie but I do miss being able to check what is being talked about on occasion without having to pay for a cable subscription
damn. nice.
Sometimes I need a good nervous chuckle, so I'll pull up the Fox News stream on there for a bit. Definitely not going to support the station by watching through a cable provider though, so that website has been great
