STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. Business in the front, party in the back - which is one way to describe the mullet, a hairdo popular in the '80s. It fell out of favor among some people but not among participants in the U.S.A. Mullet Championships. What started as a local competition in Michigan, Mullet Central, spread to New York, other states and everywhere online. So who's the next mullet champion? That's up to you. Voting at mulletchamp.com today. It's MULLET EDITION. 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.
