Motor City Sonics

Last week on my Under The Radar show I featured the new White Reaper album and they were/are heavily influenced by Cheap Trick, so I played Dream Police. We're not a Classic Rock station. Got a few positive emails about it. I guess the classic rock stations don't play them anymore. Wonder why, most of their songs were radio-perfect.

I think Biden is doing a fantastic job. Old Sleepy Joe (OSJ) is exactly what we needed after the chaos of 2017-2021. The only "scandals" are some shit about his son that happened a long time ago, and really isn't much of a scandal, the whole balloon thing, well, he shot it down, Trump did not - 3 times. To me, that whole nonsense is more Spy vs. Spy than anything else (if you are young look it up) and really, to me the biggest scandal, if you can call it that, is the airline computer meltdown, but I don't really blame Joe or Pete for that. Inflation? Well, that's a worldwide problem. And it's funny...........most people want a higher wage and want people to get paid better...........and to ween ourselves away from relying on Chinese goods. Well, OSJ is making those moves, but since we actually try to pay a reasonable wage for manufacturing in this country, if you want to shut out China, it's going to cost you more for the products. And I find it ironic that the guy who bitched about Old Sleepy Joe the and gave him the nickname is only 3 years younger and will be older than Biden in 2024 when he runs for President, than Biden was in 2020. Isn't it ironic? Yeah, I really do think. Plus he is surgical with this Social Security/Medicare issue. Even Mitch McConnell is siding with him on that. I'll take Old Sleepy Joe over Con Man Game Show Host who is not a Billionaire any day. I knew he was a fraud back in the 80s. He was just an annoyance then.

Very good speech by Hamlin.............especially considering that he's a clone (or some shit like that).

R.I.P. Burt Bacharach............one of the greatest songwriters ever........defining a sound and inspiring so many others. You hear his fingerprints on so much music that came after him. I can forgive him for the most sexist song ever (Wives & Lovers) because he did not write the lyrics. What a legend.

I worked for a radio station owned by Disney. They are evil. Pure evil. South Park's depiction of "Mr. Mouse" is far closer to the truth than anyone would like to admit.

I don't know. I am of the belief that free speech protects you from arrest or governmental punishment. It doesn't protect you from backlash you might get from people and private companies who are merely expressing their own free speech in not wanting to be involved with you. Media companies/networks never used to profit off the news, in fact it often was a profit loss, but they considered it important. Now they are another wing of the entertainment division, and an entertainment company can sell whatever they want to you. You now have thousands of options to get news or entertainment and if a media/"news" division is saying things you don't like, you can turn elsewhere. But Free Speech is not and never has been absolute. Using speech to knowingly plan a crime is not covered. Charles Manson thought free speech would protect him from the murders he ordered. He told his people what to do and then left. Free speech isn't covered when a kid makes a bomb threat or shooting threat to a school because he used that free speech to commit the crime of false reporting (we've had a huge wave of this in the last week in Michigan, and it may be coming from the same person or group). There are limits to everything, it's common sense.

Trump refusing to go to Biden's inauguration was only the fifth time in American history and the first once since Andrew Johnson refused to attend U.S. Grant's. Johnson was a childish, scandal-ridden, insufferable prick, just like Trump. It perfectly encapsulated who he is.

Twitter is a private company. They can ban anything they want. They can ban people for being Packers fans if they wanted (that would be awesome). Then you can turn around and leave Twitter. I was never active in it, but if I was, I would have left as soon as Elon Mush started his bullshit. Anyone can start their own version of Twitter. Free Market. Funny how they love the Free Market when it favors them but not other times. I don't go to Chick-Fil-A, and not because it's totally overrated, but because I don't like their support of homophobic organizations. My problem with them is therefore solved on my end.

Did you see where part of the Super Bowl script was leaked? 37-34 Philly wins. It's all rigged, it's like wrestling.

Funny how it's kind of really come to this...............The Onion is now factual.

I like the new Depeche Mode single. The new Dave Matthews Band song is a gigantic stiff. Not a huge DMB fan here, but they seem to have lost their ability to produce any kind of hook, and that was a big reason they were successful. Either the band has the ability in their contract to pick their singles and they wanted Madman's Eyes out there, or it really is the best track to pump up interest in the upcoming album in May, and if it is the best, it'll be a bigger stiff than Black Summer by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. There is almost zero buzz on this album too. You'd think with their track record that there would be more interest. (I am speaking in radio terms here, not in personal taste terms), that RHCP track was as going through the motions as they've ever sounded.

You'll never live like common people, you'll never do whatever common people do, you'll never FAIL like common people. You'll never dance and drink and screw because there's nothing else to do.

I'm sorry about the crass, tasteless remark about what Cris Collinsworth snacks on, Rodgers just brings out the worst in me.

that last interception he threw, the TV announcers were going on and on and on about how he was rushed. I don't care how he was rushed, that was a bad and stupid throw, that was a rookie mistake and it was beautiful. If they came out with that pill from Kids In The Hall Brain Candy that takes you back to your happiest moment and has you relive it over and over and over, my moment might be this. Cris Collinsworth couldn't get AR's dick out of his mouth fast enough to blame the O-Line on this dumbass throw. Go get another tea tree oil enema, Aaron. Kudos to the music that was added to this clip. I would like to meet the person that did it and shake their hand.

He spoke at an Astrology conference about using Astrology to learn how to love yourself. I don't think he needs any help there. All I see on your chart, Aaron is a big blue "31".

Everything I hear or read about Aaron Rodgers makes me hate him more. He's so desperate to prove that he's just so fucking enlightened, it makes me believe that he knows what a fraud he really is and he's desperate to hide it. 4 days in the dark? How about 4,0000..................just go the fuck away.

The Detroit Swimmobile ! Both my parents worked so I stayed with my Gramma during the week in the Summer. She lived on Tappan street near Van Dyke & Lynch. The Swim Mobile would come around a couple times in the Summer and it was a HUGE HUGE deal. Probably a Petrie dish of disease and kid pee, but it was the 70s and NOTHING could kill us !

I think China is doing it just to fuck with us. I think they can learn all they need to with the satellites, and they have more control over those. This is basically a middle finger

they lasted longer than most.

that is brilliant advertising, because not only do you remember the spot from the mid 70's, you remember the client too

He seems like a guy that once he starts slipping, it's going to be a very fast fall. Trade him to the Raiders for Derek Carr and draft picks (of course the Raiders probably don't have the money to pay him)

NEVER EAT SPINACH WITH A STRANGER
