There are rumours that a Stipe solo album is imminent. We can hope 🤞Incidentally my favourite REM track is Find the River . Stipes voice on that at his finest.

Oh yes. The least stereotypical gay guy ever. Writers decided they must have a gay storyline on S3 so pick the guy with THAT hair.Also make Keeley lesbian for 3 episodes and her lover is the gay senator from For All Mankind . Which begs the question is Ted Lasso in the same fictional universe?

Keeley is one of the most irritating characters ever. Beard as a character just constantly misfires . Why do such ardent fans watch home games in the pub when the ground is round the corner. Nothing makes any sense.

That looks like Spike . Let’s face it Spike had form when it came to Daleks .

You should watch the You Tube video of Jon Anderson and the Band of Geeks doing this recently. He maybe 80 butJon still hits the high notes on Soon. Quite an emotional experience.

You’ve not seen the pub quiz episode of Ted Lasso then . It involved adults supposedly.

I had so many vinyl records with unique covers. I note that the vinyl reissues are never packaged like the originals . I had Melanie’s Garden In the City with a scratch and sniff cover, various Stevie Wonder albums with braille embossed , some origami covers with stand up figures in the gatefold .

Karl @snowbear56.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
Morning Andrew. Another album I had on vinyl. The gatefold sleeve had windows in it and you could revolve a disc inside so different things appeared. What an idiot I was to sell my vinyl as soon as it was available on CD . My vinyl all ended up @ Plastic Wax in Bristol .

Same here. Cover was the pen and ink drawing by Nick Mason and price was £1.49 I think.

There's a reason Radio 4 works and is successful. And some bloke from Google is never going to understand it.

The BBC doesn't help itself though does it? They could keep all those R4 progs, reinstate some of their news ones, by axing 90% of the idiotic DJs they've brought in at R2 and replacing them with cheaper and better quality.

I used to love listening to the radio, and I'm saddened by even more loss of spoken discussion, education and information element. But then, BBC thinking is probably,'Who needs literate radio when TV keeps it classy with Mrs Brown's Boys, and has pap like Bargain Hunt on almost interminable repeat?'

There was more and Ruby got far filthier. That boring bloke kept apologising to the viewers. She said you could stuff the cucumbers with the contents of your medicine cabinet and he almost blew a gasket. Unfortunately the VHS tape got mangled

And on a trivia note . On the vinyl version the third disc was on the Apple Jam label with the normal Apple label replaced by a pic of a jar of apple jam .

My favourite album from my favourite Beatle . “ While the Pope owns 51% of General Motors and the Stock Exchange is the only thing he’s qualified to quote us “ Now that’s a lyric. Behind The Locked Door is up there with Something as one of the best things any Beatle did .

You mean Ted Lasso gets worse? Does that mean the irritating Juno Temple character sets the questions? For a show so twee there’s a lot of the F word.

Morning Andrew . Final track “ My Weakness “ is the one they used on the X Files when Mulder finds his sister . Haunting and ethereal and the perfect choice for that scene . In fact every track on that album was licensed for use on ads etc

64 years ago, on the 27th of September 1962, Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring was published. It handled the environmental harm caused by the pesticide DDT and the disinformation spread by the chemical industry. Carson managed to sway public opinion and even policy. #otd #history 🗃️
