PLAYLIST FOR “A MUSICAL TRIBUTE TO INANIMATE OBJECTS” (AN ARCHIVE REBROADCAST 10.18.25

20 Oct

Saturday’s show was a blast from the past, a show from about a year ago. Here’s what I said back then:

What do you do when you’re so sick of politics, you can’t stand to turn on the news— and when your football teams are losing so badly it ruins Sunday afternoon… and Sunday night… And Thursday night… And Monday night… and when your favorite restaurant starts listing the calories for every single menu item.  I’ll tell you what you do to take your mind off the real world. You do a two-hour musical tribute to inanimate objects!

Had to take a “snow day” and play a show from the archive. Don’t want to make a habit of it, but snow happens. Here’s what I said about the show in 2021:

We all have them. We may try to hide them with varying degrees of success or failure because – let’s face it – they totally reveal us, they embarrass us, and the worst ones can  actually define us for the rest of our lives. Of course I’m talking about our high school yearbook photos. Of course I’m not talking about our high school yearbook photos. I’m talking about Bad Habits. So it was nothing but Bad Habits this week – ranging from binge watching to smoking, drinking, co-dependence. magical thinking, and more. I’d go on but I’ve been told that rambling is a bad habit.

PLAYLIST FOR “MANNERS MATTER” 11.18.23

19 Nov

What on earth is going on?  Punching in the house of representatives.  Senators challenging witnesses to fight.  Road rage.  Parking lot rage; grocery store rage. What’s next? Library rage?  People: What are you thinking?  What do you need?  Maybe lessons in good manners?  Okay.  We can do that – because this week on Turntable For One, Manners Matter.  Good manners teach us how to dress, what to say (and not say), how to be courteous and kind.

PLAYLIST FOR “THE TURNTABLE FOR ONE YEAR IN REVIEW – 2020” (1.2.21)

3 Jan

Looking back at the god-awful events of 2020 was entirely too upsetting, although looking back at how I reacted to those events with my musical themes may be almost as upsetting. I think we can do better in 2021. We have to.

(BTW: I played the Michel Legrand as an anniversary shout-out to my wife. That cut was her processional at our wedding 51 years ago.)
