As I write this on Easter Sunday, I want to share something that has roots going back thousands of years, but for my family, it’s something we’ve participated in for at least fifteen years. Tradition. In my family, rather the family of my wife, this tradition began way before I was involved. The form of […]
This is definitely an observation, I hope it’s not rambling, but for sure I am cranky, also angry and very sad. When I first started writing this article, Art Fredette told me, “No politics.” I plan to stand firm to that, and as much as I can I will not be finger pointing or flag […]
This month, I chat about an issue that has exploded in New York. A lot of people have been, are or will take advantage of it, but for me, it’s a turn off and I’ll tell you why. Online gambling is now approved in the state. Instead of fantasy leagues, casinos, OTB, or maybe Saturday […]
Greetings all, hope you’re surviving 2022 as best as possible. Personally, I always feel optimism at the start of each new year, then before you know it, it goes right down the crapper. Technically the flush happened about a week from Christmas, but the pain still lingers. When you’re an old bastard like me, you […]
Happy New Year! Fingers crossed this year will be better than last. Funny, we said that last year, how did that work out? Let’s just hope. I start off this column with a question for those who are old farts like me. Not looking for an answer, but maybe it’s crossed your mind as well […]
How are you? Two quick notes before the topic at hand. One, MAJOR thanks to those who made it out to celebrate Broadcast Legend Jim Barrett. Second, and I’m VERY late in doing so (thanks Fredette, or COVID, not sure which is more deadly). Last summer, I had a heart attack and a bypass. I’m […]
As I write this, it’s hitting September, the month where we celebrate the 55th year of Jim Barrett being on the radio. And not just because of that long of a career, but that his talents have been heard on various radio stations in the Capital Region over the decades. As I mentioned couple of […]
From where I sit, many, but not all people feel the COVID crisis appears to be over (depends on who you talk to, me, I got both my shots so I feel fine), and here’s hoping your ongoing summer plans don’t take a “variant” turn and get all screwed up again. Let’s focus on the […]
Hi once again, hope you, like me, are enjoying the (slow but sure) return of freedom and normalcy. That’s not the topic, just wanted to say it for a “Yay Us” moment. In reality, it’s celebration time! Three years of RadioradioX, and well over two years of this publication. Not to mention RadioSoulX in that […]
Let’s call this a cautionary tale. That said, it’s certainly nothing to lose sleep over. Literally. Opening question, do you, a loved one or a friend snore? When I say snore, I don’t mean the occasional “I got wasted and passed out” snore. No, I mean the loud as Penn Station snore. The kind that […]
