Surviving Taylor Swift Terror, Band-Aid Bans, and Comedy Must-Sees
It’s the Tuesday News Roundup, and host Grace Fuisz is joined by our producer Marie Cecile Anderson, who was in Vienna to see one of the Taylor Swift concerts that was canceled due to a terrorist plot last week. She’s got the first-hand report on what it was like to be there, and how the Swifties rallied to take care of each other in the wake of the scary news. Comedian Cortney Warner is also on the mic this morning to help us talk local news — wait, school nurses can’t give bandaids to kids anymore? — and give us a preview of some great comedy shows coming up this month. And we’re celebrating the 30th birthday of the Batman building by learning that Grace is … related to Batman? No, seriously. Thanks to Tecovas, our Western wear faves, for being our exclusive launch sponsor!
