Intro:

  Welcome back, punks and rebels, you're listening to Radio Free Ilium, broadcasting whenever we can on
whatever
  frequencies we can hack. Let's start with a song for the haters out there who, uh, polish Olympian Spears.
  The government may say he's a crook, but we know who the real crooks are.
  You all know this one: it's Prometheus by TLS!
