I haven't made a roast in years but when I did, no granules were involved.

Bizarre story: at some point in the 1930s or 1940s, a missionary came upon a Kipsigi village in Kenya and decided to introduce the natives to American music, and one they really latched onto was a singer called Jimmie Rodgers:
I don't know exactly what songs the missionary played for the Kipsigi, but they were convinced that this could not be a mere human singing like that. They came to the conclusion that he was a spirit, half-human, half-antelope. They also wrote their own songs to the spirit Chemirocha, including this one recorded by Hugh Tracy, the man who brought the Kalimba to the west:
And 65 years later, it got turned into a pop song:

If I learned today that it's worth valuing theory B for practical reasons in order to better put theory A into practice then I learned something today.

Bah, he shoots he misses. Oh well, and on the plus side, we have a new, apparently valid and quite weird (and wonderful?) character on the block.
