PLAYLIST FOR “FEELS LIKE FALL” (9.28.24)

Why did I wear a sweater to the show this week? No buttons to struggle with? (I thought we were friends.) Because it feels like Fall!  So lots of fall and Autumn songs this week including Sarah Vaughan’s insane but irresistible version of Autumn Leaves.

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.
