Yes, we had an outage today. Here’s the story:

We have a UPS in the studio that provides clean power to our gear. It also has a large orange button on the front with a pulsating light. It’s a light that would charm snakes, angry rats or most importantly — small children.

You can figure out what happened. UtahFM unplugged is not as acoustic and trendy as you might imagine.

So, the moral of the story is this: you can have the best gear and engineering in the world and the one thing you never planned for was a bored toddler.

With that lesson, go forth and build things but for the love of god –  go easy on the glowing lights. They look cool, but they might just sink your battleship.
