Our weekly rendezvous

It doesn’t matter what is happening.  This is what is happening.  Nothing else happens that doesn’t affect it.  Its effect on all that I do is manifest at all moments.  I experience nothing in which it is not. It was not my intent for it to be this way again, but I am unsure that it [...]

You’re just talking about words

I’ve been quizzed a few times over the years about why I will occasionally play material that is clearly not funny on Bubbles in the Think Tank.  I usually just fall back on the standard “it’s not a comedy show, it’s a silly show” answer, but that’s just ducking out of larger conversations. In this week’s [...]

We were just too pure and peaceful to decide

I think it would be superfluous to add any comment on current events if I doth quote “Lemmings’ Lament“: We all want to go underground and get back to the earth, We don’t want nothing if it isn’t free. A mighty mass of furry little mindless animals – A million lemmings marching to the sea. Rather, I might consider other [...]

Never rush a pug

What?  You think a blog headline like that is irrelevant to a Bubbles in the Think Tank post?  Ok…so I’ve been watching the dog shows again, and I don’t believe that you can’t dispute the accidental precision of the random quotes of the color commentators. But back to us.  Consider this from MyDogBreed.com: Some of the words [...]

Blow those covers off

When I was still hosting the home show, Bubbles in the Think Tank ORIGINAL, I played the cards close to the vest. No last name, no job references, no lots of things. And you say to yourself, “Didn’t she tell us stories about (insert personally embarrassing or revealing story about Belinda)???” Well [...]

This is better than the others, it’s American too

While the WMFO transmitter has been at the spa, I’ve had chance (no…I’ve made the choice) to listen to a Boston area talk radio station during my weekly drive in to the show.  It’s been a harrowing experience.  The talk radio, not the drive…and that’s saying something in Boston. The female talker delivers a monologue (or [...]

A sweeping probe of what you want

At least I hope you want it.  You keep coming back for more of it, so what am I to assume? I’m secure knowing that Bubbles in the Think Tank makes me happy.  I believe that it holds the relative transitive property of the philosophy we’ve espoused here for years: It’s nice to be nice when you [...]

The two hours a week news cycle

In this archive, witness the virtual smackdown among news stories such as the 40 year anniversaries of both the Apollo moon landing and Chappaquiddick, as well as health care reform and the ridiculously large number of passings acknowledged in the weekly RadiObituary. We ask the question: If there had been a 24-hour news cycle in 1969, which [...]

The dark hand of evil attempts disruption…and fails

Oh, Robert Strange McNamara.  You just couldn’t let go and let it happen, could you? You could have taken a lesson from Oscar Mayer with the scariest version of the Wiener song ever.  You could have let it happen to you as it happened to Ken Roberts.  It could have felt like dancing on stardust as [...]

The rave of the brave

Was it the fireworks, the sight of the moon for the first time in weeks, or just the delirium of a four hour show?  Whatever it was, I’ll take a bucket of love like this anytime… it was olympian silliness (not ‘nati-, not philly-ness) golden eggs in the pre-dawn lawn– oops, sorry, wrong holiday… – sb i Loving the show tonight, [...]

If you’re from Kentucky, you can beat the odds

Kentucky is the saddest state.  Or so says the Centers for Disease Control. But you’d never know it by listening to Bubbles in the Think Tank.  Oh, we are definitely prone to a bout of melancholy on occasion or even some bittersweet tears.  Yet somehow we are able to maintain the silliest of demeanors even as [...]

Are you Randy in the Morning?

Now that’s an intimate question. Or is it just another insider style question asked by the self-styled leader of the original Think Tank Posse that merely references the title of a song about a radio show host?  How referential do I need to be anyway? Years ago I attended what some in my life claimed was a [...]

How a radio show made me modulate myself

As long as I didn’t over-modulate myself. That would be the real shame. Bubbles in the Think Tank is many things to many people.  Sometimes many things to just one person.  On occasion it seems like it’s nothing to anyone but me.  But if that were really the case, you wouldn’t be reading this right [...]

Do you make these mistakes with your RadiObituary?

Was it a mistake?  Or was it merely irrational exuberance? The process of crafting (and yes, it is a fine craft) the weekly RadiObituary segment is a malapert endeavor.  Seeking those recently deceased deemed worthy of recognition punctuated with scurrile comedic content takes a puissance that is one part passion and one part dharma with a [...]

You don’t have to be a cereal eater to be a bumblebee

Gosh, I didn’t even think to play “Eric the Half a Bee.” Whenever I do a theme, a tribute set, or, these days, a RadiObituary, I spend the next weeks thinking of what I coulda/woulda/shoulda played.  It’s a great way to help bump out whatever tune from the show invariably gets stuck in my head for [...]

See how easily you can love your mother and your Fairy, too

For years and years, I have leaned on something known to the in-crowd as the “Q List” for help when I’m looking to broaden my thinking and playlists as I work on the myriad theme shows we’ve done at Bubbles in the Think Tank.  This week, a lister made a preemptive strike at songs with [...]

Do You Recognize the 10 Early Warning Signs of a Clang!over?

1.  Catching yourself humming “Florida” on the train loud enough that other passengers notice. 2.  Ending the answers to all questions with “Sir!” 3.  Sending Scopitone clips to your parents. 4.  Suggesting to Chandler Travis that he may be in need of a backup Valette. 5.  Placing memorabilia at eye level on the other side of your office. 6.  Appreciating [...]

The lazy Belinda’s way to a great radio show

Manomanomanoman! Let it be said that DJ Easy Ed rocked the Tank this past Saturday night sitting in for Belinda. He rocked my billy, he made it silly.  He will be invited back. I’ll be back this week and see if I can live up to the high marks set by DJ Easy Ed and Mike from Classic [...]

If you don’t laugh now, you’ll hate yourself later

I love it when other people sit in for me at Bubbles in the Think Tank. No, not because it means I get a week off (well, two in this case), but because I get to hear their own brand of silliness in my stead. This week, Mike from the Classic Rock Mine set the bar high [...]
