Happy 78th birthday today to Kate Pierson of the B-52's! They, of course, were referred to as the B.C. 52's for their appearance in the 1994 flop, The Flintstones. This B-52s version of the Flintstones Theme is perhaps the best thing to come out of the star-studded film. Even though it was a box-office success, … Continue reading Movie Music Monday – The Flintstones

Share Your Nostalgia – Round 3
A while back, I asked some blogger friends if they'd want to write a piece for my Share Your Nostalgia feature. In the past we have looked at Favorite Childhood Toy and Favorite Childhood Book.

Rocking At The Schoolhouse
I thought about ways to tie this post into Movie Music Monday, but I really couldn't find a way to do it. That being said, the feature will return next week. I decided to revisit one of the first topics I blogged about, as there are many new followers since 2018. As a kid, we … Continue reading Rocking At The Schoolhouse

I don't remember when I first was introduced to this show, but I am guessing my dad had something to do with it. Early on in the draft, I chose Police Squad, which … Continue reading TV Show Draft Pick – The Honeymooners

We began listing the shows he and his brother watched and had many laughs as we remembered specific episodes. This led … Continue reading Tunes from Toons

Usually, you can hear the sounds of "Little Brown Jug", "Turkey in the Straw", "Pop! Goes the Weasel", or "The Entertainer" (among others) when … Continue reading Summer Memory – The Good Humor Man
Picking a Partner
Yesterday I received an e-mail from a radio buddy who is now out-of-state. He was surfing around the internet and came across an article written by one of my radio mentors, Jay Trachman. It is probably a huge coincidence that just a few weeks ago, I wrote a blog about him, but then again, sometimes … Continue reading Picking a Partner
Toon Tunes …
As I stated at the end of yesterday's blog - I could easily write an entire blog about Cartoon Theme songs. Some readers messaged privately with suggestions, while others commented on Facebook. So, I sat down and gathered some thoughts and have come up with a list of some of my favorites. In doing so, … Continue reading Toon Tunes …
