PLAYLIST FOR “GOING TO EXTREMES” 10.19.24

20 Oct

It can describe the weather – especially these days; it can describe a variety of sports events; it can describe powerful emotions. This week it described Turntable For One because I spent two hours going to extremes. Plus an affectionate salute and thank you to Terry Gibbs in celebration of his 100th birthday.

I celebrated National Piano Month, playing some of my favorite pianists, singer/pianists, and songwriters.  However, I did have to take a moment to talk to a small portion of my audience – thr pets that listen because their people listen.  Pets had a scary week with all the talk about bad people kidnapping and eating them  I wanted to reassure them with some special songs to say that we love them and they are  safe.

PLAYLIST FOR “DELUGE OF DILEMMAS” 9.8.24

9 Sep

When they come, they may be small, they may be large; they may come one at a time or maybe in bunches. You don’t always see them coming, but they’re coming. 

Of course I’m talking about mosquito bites.  No — I’m talking about Dilemmas – those tricky speed bumps life throws at us.  You know, Which is better: fire or ice?  Window or aisle?  Or the one that vexes me most: fries or side salad?

PLAYLIST FOR “SEASON FINALE 2024 – Summer Listening Assignments” 6.29.24

2 Jul

You think you’re getting rid of me, but I’m going to be even closer to you when I bring my ice cream truck to your neighborhood.  And what extra-special ice cream treats will I be dishing up this year?  I’m so glad you asked. 

  • Still trying to recover from the Presidential Debate?  Try my Biden Brain Freeze Blizzard. After a couple bites, you won’t know where you are; you won’t know what you just said. 
  • And speaking of brain freezes…you’re going to love my RFK Jr. triple-decker ice cream cone.  I hide a gummy worm in each scoop.  Enjoy – it’s a no-brainer!
  • Looking for something you can really bite into?  Try my new Christy Noem hot dogs. Just don’t ask me where I got the the meats.
  • Taylor Swift — I don’t have an ice cream about her. I just thought if I mentioned her name, it would be good for business.  
  • I know everyone’s talking abut them, but I’ve got them: genuine Lauren Boebert hand-rolled waffle cones!
  • In tribute to the Supreme Court, I’ve created three special ice cream treats this year.
  • First, we have the Clarence Thomas Ice Cream Sandwich – It’s vanilla ice cream sandwiched between 2 one-thousand dollar bills. How much does it cost? It’s $2005 for most customers – Clarence Thomas just pays with his dignity.
  • I’ve also got the Upside Down American Flag Frappe – It’s Justice Alioto’s favorite –I wasn’t going to sell it this year but my wife made me do it.
  • And last but not least, I’ve got the Supreme Court Banana Split – it’s 3 scoops of delicious ice cream…and 6 bananas. No need to add nuts.
  • I don’t know about you, but I’m totally over Drumsticks – everyone’s tired of Drumticks, right?  I can do better.  This year I’ve got a Breast-and-Thigh Frozen Treat.  It’s white meat and dark meat in a cup, covered with dark chocolate syrup and peanuts.  Look – Don’t blame me – this is what happens when A.I. creates a sundae!
  • And remember: At my ice cream truck, there are no Gag orders!   All the gagging starts after you eat the ice cream.

PLAYLIST FOR “BUCKET LIST BONANZA” 6.22.24

23 Jun

My next-to-last show of the season and it made me think about all the music I haven’t played for my audience this year, which made me think of all the things I haven’t done in my life. (Sadly, that’s how my mind usually works.) So far there’s only one thing on my bucket list: buy a bucket. With the help of an internet list of bucket list suggestions, I gave myself – and my audience – lots of potential and some obvious choices for things to do before kicking the bucket (which I haven’t bought yet.)

17 Jun

What can you do when you’re in a foul mood except play songs about foul play, and foul weather, andfowl weather, and on and on in that foul trajectory?

What do these things have in common? 

  •      I’d rather have a root canal!
  •      It’s like putting lipstick on a pig!
  •      It’s totally gone off the tracks!

No, these are not descriptions of my show. They’re Cliches – which I wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole and, the end of the day, I bend over backwards not to use them as if my life depended on it. Except last Saturday when I gave a Clinic In Cliches!
