It was, perhaps, the single greatest moment of my career at the station, especially considering we didn’t get written up. I’m reminded of this modern day Ayn Rand tale because it’s $5 Friday, the day where we celebrate the collective power of small, monthly donations to WBEZ. To make it even more interesting, the station is throwing in a new WBEZ pint glass so you can enjoy that cold beverage in style. All you have to do is donate $5 a month.  YES, I PLEDGE $5 A MONTH! It would mean a lot to me if you’d consider donating, because individuals like you chip in to ensure this essential community service stays strong. So before you kick off those weekend plans, make a monthly donation of $5 or more in support of the important community resource that is WBEZ and we’ll send you the new WBEZ pint glass as our thank you. Cheers! And thanks!
