The Ticket’s New Promo Is Pretty Tone Deaf

Yesterday, while driving to our broadcast location to record the latest episode of EarBurner, I was listening to The Ticket, as is my custom. Just before parking, The Hardline went to commercial and I heard the familiar voice of Conrad, the guy who reads all the station's promo copy. Or most of it, anyway. I forget the first few lines of this particular promo -- which I had not heard before -- but the part that made my ears perk up was this: "Bruce Jenner has stopped training, and started trannying." You're better than that, guys. Fix it.
