RIP Sinéad.

A person, Sinéad O'Connor, on a stage with a boom microphone, holding a guitar. SHe is wearing a red outfit, and the background is dark.

Sinéad was a hero who sacrificed her career to expose the abuses going on, and denied, in the establishment church. It wasn’t until decades later that these wrong-doings were taken seriously. I rarely get bent out of shape when a famous person I don’t know dies, but this one hurts. Rest in peace, Sinéad, you’re one of my biggest heroes.

I'm the executive producer of the CPB-funded public radio program Cafe Chill, which airs on about 50 stations across the USA. I'm also the owner of KRXX 103.3 FM in Tonopah, Nevada, currently being constructed. A fun thing I do on the side is the Friday Drive-at-Five on C89.5 in Seattle with DJLightray. FYI, she's way better than me.
