This week, Fancy Ray returned. In 2017, he simply arrived. It was his first visit, and both the show and the very planet itself have changed quite a bit since then. Ray seems unperturbed. In fact, he may even be higher energy now than he was six years ago. Now's your chance to compare and contrast for yourself.Disclaimer: this episode isn't technically "lost" in that it can be found by digging around our Megaphone archives, but for ease of access and visibility we're republishing it here. Besides, I'm not even sure how most people do access our archives. Maybe you can't. Learn more about your ad choices.

Sometimes it was a little too local, like when the guy across the street is the wrong denomination of your religion. Even then, these were the things that gave communities their identity. Globalization has stripped away the uniqueness of our neighborhoods, and whether you think we're better or worse off than the "good old days", you have to agree that they generated some pretty interesting stories we're not likely to see the likes of ever again.
