Controversy
The episode "A Warrior in the Making", which aired on May 21, 2013, was subject to criticism from the Parents Television Council due to a short scene in which Kesha supposedly tastes her own urine.[11]
gollark: Of course, FLAC is cool and good™ as it is *lossless* audio compression.
gollark: Well, assuming those aren't just generated from lossy audio too, it might sound better.
gollark: Oh, I see.
gollark: If you got a WAV file from the original artist or something, maybe. If you got a WAV file from an MP3 file, no, it will not sound better than that MP3.
gollark: Yes, it is distorted and gets noise added when you run it through the annoying analog world too.
