Frank’s friend Kira Cupp is filling in for Kathryn Frady. Kira asked Frank to get her an autograph from Internet cook Adam Ragusea. Frank recorded an interview with Adam for “Up Close with Frank Murphy” on East Tennessee PBS. Frank sent Adam a link to a video that Kira made 10 years ago at the Holy Land Market.
Kira has been posting videos on TikTok and Instagram. In one, she plays herself and someone who doesn’t think videography is a real job. The website for Kira’s videography and photography business is https://www.nothingrhymeswithorange.net/
Frank is often asked to donate his time to serve as emcee for events. When he had a full-time radio job, the station would list his charity appearances in the public file for the FCC. He recently emceed a fundraiser for Friends of Literacy. In exchange, they gave logo exposure to the Frank & Friends Show.
The fundraiser was on a Friday night during Lent. Frank and his wife Jere couldn’t eat the chicken entree and had to choose the vegetarian option. It was an imitation meat patty with sausage-like flavoring. Because Frank was the emcee, he was served his meal and had to eat it before anyone else at his table.
One of Frank’s Facebook friends made a post asking why Easter is two weeks later this year. Frank tells Kira that Easter is on the first Sunday after the first full moon after March 21. There is always a full moon during Holy Week. Abraham Lincoln was assassinated on a Good Friday. Frank wonders if the full moon helped John Wilkes Booth flee the scene.
Kira has a doorbell camera. Frank wonders if she has saved any interesting footage. Kira plans to make a surprise video to show at her sister’s wedding reception.
