The Scoop for March 5, 2020

It’s been a tough year for Alex Trebek. Only 18% of people with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer make it to the one year mark, but Alex just hit that point.
Now, it hasn’t been all roses and rainbows.
Alex says he’s had some good days, but an awful lot of bad days.
The point is, Alex is still here and still fighting and we’re in your corner Alex. Keep fighting the good fight.


And thanks to the fact that I’m having technical issues, the only other thing I have to tell you is that Journey fired their drummer Steve Smith and their bassist Ross Valory. Something about a corporate coup in order to take control of the songs or some such. I don’t know. Rock n Roll Drama.
