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!

When’s the last time you played “Is It Animal, Mineral, or Vegetable?” Maybe the last time you ate at Denny’s? Maybe the last time you watched the U.S. Senate? My version of the game (with songs) was a lot more rewarding than the previous two examples. And swinging! Don’t you agree?

PLAYLIST FOR “IT’S WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY! SIGH…” (10.10.20)

11 Oct

Saturday was World Mental Health Day. So, of course, I wanted to play two hours of positive, motivating, and encouraging songs. JUST KIDDING!! Doing that would have made me part of the solution, not part of the problem. That’s not the way I roll. In addition to some favorite songs about the questionable mental state of the world, I also played songs about several of the stressors indicating less than optimum mental health. Okay, yes, it was just another show about me.

19 Nov

Saturday afternoon, I sat in for Garrett Stack on his program American Jukebox, rock and pop hits of the ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s.  So I thought I’d spend Saturday evening on my show playing jazz versions of pop tunes.
