If Trump's personal Viagra parade doesn't get rained out, here's what I want to see: Someone Tiananmen Square the tanks. And in an act of rebellion, one of the marching bands plays this as they pass the orange overlord. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWF8...

Things you wanna do in your 50s: Smack people in their early 30s who moan about getting old. Bitch, you're still really young! Everything still functioned throughout my 30s. You got a loooooooot of livin' left to do!

Looks like I did a Radiotrola Program the day my future step-daughter was born. Hear the best stuff from that episode. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/best-of-th...

It's the gift nobody wants for Father's Day...SYPHILIS!!! In six minutes, I review the 1938 don't-let-this-happen-to-YOU flicker, Sex Madness. #movie #moviereview #podcast ftmelo.podbean.com/e/the-6-minu...

I asked a mathemagician friend to figure out how much I'm getting from Podbean per listen. It's 0.004 cents per listen. I'll put a positive spin on it. I'm getting paid Rock star on Spotify money!!!!

It's olde timey songs about dad on my Waxy Buildup #podcast. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/waxy-build...

So, Trump is sending the Marines in to break up the protests in California. Phew! That should end things peacefully. Can't think of anything that ever went bad when the military was sent in to handle protestors. Oh, fuck you if you voted for Trump, or didn't vote.

from today post. maybe you remember this, too link: bit.ly/43AfmSZ

It just occurred to me that I'm the same age my Gramma was when I was born. I'm getting her shaky hands, too. :/

Rush to listen to this week's episode of Eric Wincentsen's podcast "What Came Next..." ftmelo.podbean.com/e/what-came-...

Remember June 6, 1944. Because the President of the United States doesn't. Or thinks it was a bad day for the Nazis.

I think the title of my Substack post says it all... radiotrola.substack.com/p/because-my...

Ya know, I wish I had the annoying persistencey of a cat scratching at the door to let the human know they want to go in a room that's closed off.

In this week's Eric vs. Eric we talk about childhood for Gen Xers parented by Boomers, and a little sodomy from Billy Joel. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/eric-vs-er...

Summer=Hell, so I play Christmas songs from the early 20th century on my Waxy Buildup #podcast to put my mind in a time of year when there is no sweating. #Christmas #christmasmusic #holiday #christmascarol ftmelo.podbean.com/e/waxy-build...

Even I have a Substack! radiotrola.substack.com/p/waxy-build...

EDW takes on ELP in his 10 minute #podcast "What Came Next..." #emersonlakeandpalmer #EmersonLakePalmer ftmelo.podbean.com/e/what-came-...

I count down the top 40 songs from June 1, 1959 one snippet at a time! #podcast ftmelo.podbean.com/e/americas-t...

In the first six months of 2025, my podcasts got 26,109 listens on Podbean. I got $75.25 from ad revenue. By my math (and it may be wrong,) that's $0.002 per listen. And I have to split that $75.25 with other people. So with the bottomless hours of work I put into the shows, I got $0.001 per listen.

I need a female voice. Requirements: Can act. (Don't have to be Meryl Streep, but better than Elizabeth Shue in Back to the Future Part II.) Can record with decent sound quality.

#ColinHay from #menatwork got his own #documentary, and I let it fly with my thoughts about it on my #podcast within 6 minutes. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/the-6-minu...

It's 45 minutes of a #rain #storm on my Podcast Art #podcast ftmelo.podbean.com/e/podcast-ar...

I play Summer songs from the early 20th century! Listen for my oopsie-doodle in the Intro I didn't catch until just now. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/waxy-build...

Eric Wincentsen goes on a Wild Planet with the #b52s on his #podcast What Came Next. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/what-came-...

On this Memorial Day, let's remember those who called people who died in our wars "suckers and losers."

If extraterrestrials invaded earth, and captured us, do you think they'd think farts were a built-in evolutionary biological weapon to drive off invaders?

What happens when the meek becomes a god? Find out in my 6 minute review of the H.G. Wells story "The Man Who Could Work Miracles!" (Don't worry. You don't. have to read anything. Just listen for six minutes.) ftmelo.podbean.com/e/the-6-minu...

Making my way through the Fleetwood Mac discography. Haven't hit the Buckingham/Nicks years yet. Christine McVie doesn't get the dreamy song-making credit she deserves.

Eric Wincentsen makes his own contribution to the Podcast Art podcast with his recording of 15 minutes on the Kelvin Bridge. It has nothing to do with J.J. Trek. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/podcast-ar...

Oh, come on!!! Whoever's in charge of deciding who lives and who dies needs to be fired! Harmless George Wendt? He needed to die? To remind you, Trump is on the verge of being 3 years older than George was, and he's still thriving and killing jillions of people with his actions.

Let's get sick again, like we did last century! I play old records about being down with the early 20th century sicknesses on my podcast. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/waxy-build...

Anybody else do this? You hear a song you absolutely despise. You either leave the room or building, if you can, until you're out of earshot, and come back when the song is over. Or find a song you like on your phone, and put that in your ear to drown out the crap.

I have podcasts uploaded and ready to post until June 30th. My brain: You're six weeks ahead. Take a day off. Watch a movie. Put together a Lego set. My brain: You can rest when you're three months ahead. Get to it!

It's the most reviled ELO song. Fortunately, Jeff had nothing to do with it. #electriclightorchestra #podcast #podcasts ftmelo.podbean.com/e/face-the-m...

Today in Lego sets I have: Mission Control (1999) The 4th shuttle at my Legoland Astroplex, the space shuttle A-109 Millenium. With lights and (((sound!)))

It's been a couple days since I've said this, but, fuck you if you voted for Trump, or didn't vote.

It's my 6 minute #moviereview of second #StarWars movie in the third trilogy. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/the-6-minu...

Today in Lego sets I have: Countdown Corner (1999) The Legoland Astroplex went through a big expansion in 1999. This separated into three sections. The three buttons on the bottom made three different rocket sounds, and the orange engines lit up and flashed.

It's 15 minutes of a morning walk on a nearby walking/biking path. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/podcast-ar...

It's birthday songs on my old records #podcast for the coolest people ever birthed. ftmelo.podbean.com/e/waxy-build...

Eric Wincentsen rocks Dio in his 7 minute podcast What Came Next. #ronniejamesdio #podcast #podcasts ftmelo.podbean.com/e/what-came-...

Today in Lego sets I have: Railway Express (1999) Christmas 1999.
