Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 27/03/2025My young old friend Ben Felten @mysteresdeparis.bsky.social and I have started a new podcast called "Radio Tombola" (you never quite know what you're going to get when you reach inside), and the first episode is about "improbable covers". It's a fun hour-and-a-bit. www.mixcloud.com/RadioTombola... 131
Reposted by Jimi Inc.Ben Felten @mysteresdeparis.bsky.social · 27/03/2025For the three of you who miss my musical radioing / podcasting, @jimiinc.bsky.social and I are launching a new podcast, RADIO TOMBOLA. I think it's a ton of fun, and hopefully the first of many. Please like, share, email, talk about it!mixcloud.comRadio Tombola - Episode 1 (24 03 25) 071
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 22/03/2025You're probably hip to the fact that the "Time Is Tight" melody line appears in the horn parts on Eddie Floyd's "Never Found A Girl" and both are derived from "Theme From 'A Summer Place'". 😲 120
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 22/03/2025Thanks. I thought it was appropriate, especially since I feel it more than ever these days. ✌🏼 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 22/03/2025First time I've spoken in this series. In fact, I talk quite a lot here, sharing anecdotes and music connected to some Memphis music legends I had the strange fortune to encounter through the course of my life. www.mixcloud.com/jimiinc/a-wo... 220
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 17/03/2025So what the fucking fuck do you propose to do about it, apart from fundraising? 000
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 17/03/2025I'm also confident I will win the lotto draw this Wednesday. Both statements are equally newsworthy. 000
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 17/03/2025When is Shumer doing Newsom's "Nazis Are People Too" podcast? 120
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Was it out of her own pocket, or did she put it on expenses? 000
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 16/03/2025"Safety features" like locking you in the car as it burns? 040
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 13/03/2025It sounds like it could be a cutting edge antidepressant brand, with an unforgettable theme song destined to be indelibly imprinted on the brains of hundreds of CNN viewers. 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 13/03/2025On Walcot Street in Bath, if you look up on the high wall on the west side of the street, you'll see some very interesting faces. There are many more, but these really stood out to me. 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 12/03/2025So it's a transfer of public sector activities to a different malignant narcissist? Great! 030
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 12/03/2025Yeah, the kind that refuses to open the doors when you're trapped inside and the car's on fire. 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 12/03/2025Shameful coverage of the Tesla reputation-laundering stunt at the White House by @news.sky.com. No mention of the obvious quid pro quo between Musk ($300m in campaign donations) and this ludicrously corrupt event. 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 11/03/2025Watching Enron nearly burst into tears when the odious Larry Kudlow asks about his inability to run his various stupid companies while simultaneously destroying the government is almost sad. But remember his own words: "the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy". Cry more, Enron. 020
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 11/03/2025There's no "both sides" here. What he's doing is patently unconstitutional and illegal. 0241
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 11/03/2025If you're in need of a great read, if only as a distraction from the endless doom scroll, I heartily recommend this portrait of a true revolutionary. I grew up a few blocks from Sam's house in East Memphis and often saw him out mowing his own lawn in the sweltering Memphis summer heat. 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 06/03/2025Kavanaugh also seems a bit disturbed. So it goes when the manifestly unqualified sell their souls. 021
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Yep. When I say "property developers", I mean descendants of plantation owners and cotton merchants. Surreal that 160 years after the fact the same people could be calling the shots, but in my experience that largely seems to be the case. Yet this Musk/XAi thing is a new level of fuckedupness. 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025You ain't wrong about Gus's. I could go on about what's wrong with Memphis, but to my mind it's a two-way apartheid mentality and the vice grip of property developers. It's empowered charlatans on both shades to play games and pillage at will. It's fucked, even before Elon's supercomputer bullshit. 110
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025I'm a refugee from Memphis, where, whether people admit or not (usually not), New Orleans lives rent free in our heads. What a city! Anyway, I'm in the UK now permanently, and the America that once was is an increasingly distant memory. What a shit show. 110
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025I agree wholeheartedly, even if my mother was born in Shreveport. It was the only real hospital in the ArkLaTex at the time. 110
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Louisiana (New Orleans and Lafayette, at least) deserves every bit of special treatment which it richly deserves. 100
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025I'm sure many right-minded people in Louisiana would love to be liberated from the AmeriKKKan hellscape! 110
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Priorities! And in 2025, any adherence to rules is a winner! 010
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025If Australia can be in the Eurovision Song Contest, Canada can be part of the EU! 100
Jimi Inc. @jimiinc.bsky.social · 05/03/2025But Navarro's unfailingly wrong on everything, so this may be a positive. 🤣 000
