For the first time in recorded Blue Tiger history, a former guest has made the ascension to the cosmic throne of cohost. Theoretical models warn that even the most subtle adjustment to the BTR broadcast transmission may cause what is known as a ripple effect in the space-time-continuum and thus causation of unpredictable universal events. This is a risk that we here at BTR are willing to… risk… for you… the cubs. The wonderful Leila Del Duca replaces Tadd since he, the garbage humanoid that he i...
