Tangent Achieved - Week of 8/19/20

The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of Live Aid, the huge charity concert from 1985. It was a huge event, and it gave people a lot of memories (for better or worse). We talk about the concert itself, a bunch of history behind the event, its iconic status, some tangents on Band Aid and Farm Aid, and a bunch of stuff in between. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.
 
Announcements:
Come hang out with us! We may have finally come up with an alternative to our monthly meetups on 2nd Saturdays in Garland, TX; details on Facebook & Twitter & the Events tab on our website
