LIONEL PODCAST: How to Drop an F-Bomb With Class and Not Sound Like a Morning Show Retread

Listen. If you want to curse, fine. Do it with some class. Never as a substitution for wit. Dig? There’s an art to it.

It’s the mainstay of morning zoo-show anachronisms and trite broadcasting swill. Herein, is my disquisition and tribute to the noble art of cursing and cussing. There’s a place for the off-color and scabrous but only if well-timed and deftly placed.
