STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. At some point in life, I figured out how to solve a Rubik's Cube. You gently pry the pieces apart and just put the colored squares in the right place. A teenager named Jesse Bradford can solve Rubik's Cubes the legitimate way and solved 300 of them. Not only that, he did this while riding a unicycle.

NOEL KING, HOST:

Steve, wait. Did you hear about the guy who couldn't write a unicycle?

INSKEEP: Why couldn't he write a unicycle?

KING: He was too tired.

INSKEEP: Doh. It's MORNING EDITION.

KING: (Laughter). Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
