The exterior door directly into the bathroom is a nice touch.

Cig *almost* smiled.

Curt. Go.

Carla and Crappy Show: The Hoo-Hoo-Hoosier Champion Edition Also, Cig’s many memes, FCS craziness, and hoo boy, were we wrong about this year.

It’s gameday, people, and you’ve gotta hear what @carlaswankfox.bsky.social, @ajkuftic.xyz and I think about tonight’s CFP champinchip game. Thanks for an awesome 14th season, yinz guys! open.substack.com/pub/carlacra...

Sometime, I’m gonna show up — I don’t think I’ve talked to you in person since a Podcamp years ago. 😀

Pittsburgh folks: I need to get back to yoga — and I need a yoga studio. From South Side up to close-ish North Hills. Evening weekday and weekend morning classes would be best. I’m feeling old, stiff and cranky, and practicing again will help with all three. Thanks. 🕉️

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announces it is shutting down in May The company said it has lost more than $350 million during the past two decades while operating the Post-Gazette.

Oh, yes — I have some thoughts. But there are dozens of good people — many of whom are among my best friends in town — who just found out they're losing their jobs in a couple months. In deference to them, I'm going to be quiet for a bit.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announces closure The owners of Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announced on Wednesday that the newspaper will “cease operations” on May 3. “Over the past 20 years, Block Communications has lost more than $35...

The Post Gazette was killed today because the Blocks, after fighting the longest strike in US history at 1,133 days, were irrevocably told by the Supreme Court today that they lost. So they're closing a newspaper that first published in 1786 because they're mad.

Happy new year, everyone. Love and light to each of you in 2026. ❤️

Carla and Crappy Show: How the Grinch Stole Bowlapalooza Edition With apologies to our esteemed panelists and, well, Dr. Seuss.

The meat of the bowl season gets underway today and our annual Bowlapalooza show is the best way to preview every single non-CFP game. And you *must* read the show notes prepared by @carlaswankfox.bsky.social. open.substack.com/pub/carlacra...

There are Santas from different cultures in the lobby of PPG Two -- they're cool if you haven't seen them before. But I think the gingerbread house contest has moved to the City-County Building.

I will never understand a college football game with a dress code.

Carla and Crappy Show: The Allegedly Champinchip Week Edition Also, Mormon cookies, Cal football, Lane’s exit, and Team Sprinkles.

We start with #MACtion at noon and conclude No. 1 vs. No. 2 in prime time. And this week’s Carla and Crappy Show will get you ready for all of today’s champinchip games. @carlaswankfox.bsky.social @ajkuftic.xyz open.substack.com/pub/carlacra...

I'm not sure what it is about me and jumping into uncomfortably chilly water, but I'm doing it again, this time to raise money for Special Olympics PA. Got a few bucks to chip in? I'd be grateful.

Oooo, interesting question…

And thank you!

Aaaaannd, it’s Birthday Eve. 🎂🍺🥃

Happy Birthday Month Eve!

I think I’d rather see @nauerbach.com in the Senate. Is that an option?

Listening to ACC officials discuss replays with the conference control room is one of the best things to happen to #collegefootball in a long time. Pay attention, other conferences.

@trailion.bsky.social My assessment of UVA may have been incorrect.

14 all, 5 mins left in the first half. UVA converted two FSU turnovers to touchdowns, but I’m not sure they can hang on.

There are many, many college football questions (how to smoke a pork shoulder is not among them). This week, as conference play really gets going, we may start getting some answers. #CnCShow @carlaswankfox.bsky.social @ajkuftic.xyz podcasts.apple.com/us/po…

We saw that! Along with a pronounced lack of defense! 🤣

Hello. City resident who would gladly sign that petition here.

Carla and Crappy Show: The 'What Are They Thinking?' Edition
