As you know, this is paywalled.

As you also know we always tell you that, because not all of you getting this message, will read this story. Those that do, we’re grateful to you; those yet to come? we’re still hopeful. And as a result of that hope — after having cancelled THE CELEBRITY DINER — we’ve launched a second part for our PAID Members of THE PORTAL CLUB, and that’s POET’S CORNER. Some of you might have noticed we started reading Geoffrey Chaucer’s THE CANTERBURY TALES. We started because some exec downtown heard someone say in one of those throwaway lines, that someone should try to read a classic masterpiece out loud—and just that, voilà, here we are. Well, the host has a hard time with the nothing else part of any deal, so he does talk. A lot. They say it’s a mock TV station, BTC-TV Channel 13 (it’s never a bad time for a promo), but we here at the station take our work real serious.
