Josh is one of my favorite artists, Austin. I recommend checking out his album Exorcism Rock if you dig the theme song. It's got a bunch of really fun tunes.
Avatar 6:05pm

His other releases are really good, as well, of course. But, that's a good one to start with.

On those releases, he just goes by Berwanger.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:10pm
Austin Rich:

I just realized that "Teach Me Tiger" is an April Stevens track. I have a record of her reading "sexy" weather reports, that I found at a thrift store. They're generic, so they should be "ever-green," so to speak. I should dig out that record.
Avatar 6:10pm
shangri-lounge:

That sounds AMAZING, Austin. What is that called?

Sarcofiguy:

@HYPER: Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:11pm
Austin Rich:

I'm not familiar with "White Noise," but this is REALLY COOL.

I think the 7" is just, "April Stevens Reads the Weather." and the tracks are, "RAIN - Light." "Sunny." "RAIN - HEAVY." Etc.
Avatar 6:12pm
HyperDose:

@Shangri Transforming this space into the most radical tiki lounge each week must take up a lot of your time. It's understandable how you may miss a show or two.

Here we go. This is the listing on Discogs. It fails to mention, "She reads it all really sexy-like."

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:17pm
Austin Rich:

The copy I have says, "Not for Sale." I think it was one of those "distributed to radio stations only" and might have gotten forgotten, somehow. I've played it a few times over the years, but I should probably revisit it. (Each track ends with an "ENDLESS GROOVE" so you can't actually play it straight through. It's truly a radio record.

I do love those old shows, though. Just really excellent sitcom comedy.

Yeah. TV Land sort of raised me. I still sort of long for just endless re-runs of old TV shows. But that's not really how any kind of TV is done anymore.

I think dispensaries need to embrace the "other kinds of people are interested in this product." Like, all the places in Oregon look like some grunge kid from a Nirvana video is about to sell something to you. If there was a goth pot shop with strains like "Too Dark Park" and "Elder Pot" I would probably only shop there.

I'll always think of him as Iago the parrot. Aladdin was big when I was little.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:26pm

While absolutely great, I remember before the movie came out, casting Gilbert for a Disney movie was a little controversial. His humor was usually... surreal and not child-friendly. But he really nailed that parrot well.

The solace I take away from Gilbert and Bob Saget's passings is the second wind their careers had with stand up and podcasting through new tech. Brought them on an even bigger platform where they were just as beloved by the younger generations. Incredible people who will be dearly missed.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:30pm
Austin Rich:

We're at that weird period in history where more people than ever before are celebrities, and more people are more aware of different kinds of celebrities, and when they die, than ever before in history. Chances are, almost every day, someone of significant note passes away. It's too much to keep up with.

Gilbert Gottfried used to go on Howard Stern and was able to recite chunks of dialogue from old horror/monster movies like "the Invisible Man" by heart.

Wanda was just in the first episode of season three of A Black Lady Sketch Show. She played a heckler at a comedy club who got more laughs than the comedian on stage. The funniest line she said in her inimitable voice to the adoring crowd was, "I work at the post office."

I spent most of my youth listening to comedy records, and then I sort of stopped following comedy. I've seen / heard occasional people over the years, but I think all of that energy has now been replaced by radio / podcasts.
