As a Big Broadcast fan it is your duty to "Murray Watch" when listening to the Big Broadcast. If/when you hear Murray needlessly injecting politics or cultural division into the Big Broadcast, or simply saying something stupid in general, go to the current show's page, click on the "Reach out to us" tab and file a complaint. It is worth your time to do this and you're protecting the integrity of the Big Broadcast.

Hi Gina. How cold is cold? How’s the fence?

[Vision]

Thanks, it’s also in the third post.

Murray the commie gaslighting Jack Benny. Screw you Murray.

[WXRGina]

It wasn’t that cold during the day today (into the low 50s), but it got down to the mid 20s the last couple of nights. Not as cold as it sometimes gets, but it hurts the tender plants.

With the rain and the cold, windy days, the fence isn’t done yet. The posts are all set, and the stringers on one section, so the hard part is done. Hopefully he’ll be able to get it done this week.

We were 14f one night. It’s been a cold winter so far. Sooner or later we’ll get walloped with snow.

[WXRGina]

Yeah, it’s been very cold in lots of areas. We still have two more months to get through. :-/
