One day I will cut the cord…
This is a message to Time Warner Cable, my second-favorite cable service provider (all the others are tied for first): Your days are numbered, bunky… Your days of promotional rates that vanish in a heartbeat are numbered… Your days of bugging me to bundle my cable and internet service with a phone service I’ll never…
Read MoreThe return of “Amazing Stories”?
It’s 1985, and three anthology programs are now part of the prime time lineup. There’s a revival of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, where new episodes are filmed with wraparound introductions by Alfred Hitchcock himself (taken from old episodes and colorized). There’s a revival of the Twilight Zone, featuring awesome new stories from modern science fiction scribes.…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: Your Easy Listening Station
Back in the day, “easy listening” music didn’t have screaming guitars, screaming vocalists, or anything else that screamed. It was mellow music (probably what you might call “Yacht Rock” today). And the lyrics were cool – mostly about love and relationships, sometimes inspirational, sometimes wistful. So if K-Chuck Radio became an easy listening station today……

When the “first” really was the best

It was 1977, and I stood in line at the Cine 1-2-3-4-5-6 in Northway Mall for the new motion picture Star Wars. I had already read the first three Marvel Comics movie adaptations, and was so psyched to see this film on the big screen. So much so, in fact, that I saved up enough…
Read MoreNaked came the snowflakes
Here they came. Light drops of white upon my windshield. Flying towards me in tiny, chilly streaks. The snowflakes arrived. It’s mid-October and there were twinkling, dusty frozen ice droplets in the sky. And for some reason, some unbelievably sensitive, internally reflective reason, I recalled the arrival of many snowflakes in my life. The snowflakes…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: The Rocshire Memories
It seems like a generation ago that this little startup record company came along and tried to conquer the world. Rocshire Records, an independent label from Anaheim, signed a slew of artists, and within a few years it blasted through on its way to conquering the music world. Grammy Awards, gold records, worldwide tours… Yeah,…
