I’m gonna make that dream come real

Sometimes you gotta go somewhere to make dreams come true. I know… that often means that I end up leaving you for a bit, but I try to leave something nice behind for you when I do. So here’s a Read more ›

You could buy me a burrito

You bought me a junior once.  We were stunned that they’d only let me have 4 ingredients. I’m way too greedy and needy for that.  So you made them just keep piling on and on and on. Then I ate Read more ›

And I can’t wait to see you materialize

I’m looking for you all the time. Hoping you’ll just pop up wherever I am.  Online.  At a show.  Walking around aimlessly the way that I do. But no matter what, you’ll aways pop into my mind when I’m letting Read more ›

And I’ve got wild knees for you

Yes. My knees shake and get weak and quiver and click and straighten and bend and kneel and and and… But it’s all to get to you. Maybe you should soothe them with silliness rather than making me do it Read more ›

You be my baby doll, there’ll be a whole lotta shakin’

I try to make you shake your stick every week. I know I do in my own way whenever we get together. That is just one of the millions of reasons I dig being with you. Hopefully this archive will Read more ›

Making the nighttime a fool

Who’s making who the fool? I love the nighttime.  I want to be awake for more of it.  Or at least aware of the best parts of it. Things get quieter.  The dark feels cozy.  I’m more attentive.  At least Read more ›

I dim the lights down very low, here we go

During our time together, I don’t like for it to be too bright.  I don’t want it to be totally dark though.  I mean, after all, I need to see what I’m doing. How else am I going to hit Read more ›

The girls don’t wear no tights in Jersey

Everything that comes to my head to say for this post seems like too much, and you know that’s saying something. But in the spirit of my transparency of process, I will share with you, the listener, although not in my Read more ›

At last the stars are bright and shiny

When I walk out of the studio every week, I look. Can I see any stars, even in the city?  Is it a full moon?  How fast are the clouds moving?  Could that be…? I used to drive to the Read more ›

Why don’t you leave it on repeat all day?

As though you could get me to stop repeating…. Someone asked me a few days ago how I could be on the radio and sound so in command when I’m such an introvert. (We can debate any part of that Read more ›

But there’s a force driving me on, I follow it gladly

Why do I keep coming back? Is it the wattage you continually put in my cottage?  The potency of your pizzazz? It must be the collective charisma that draws me back each and every week so I can experience the Read more ›

The curtains have been drawn

I know what that means, and I love it. You get up and close the blinds and that’s when I know you’ve got no higher priority than paying attention to me. No one else needs to see you behind the Read more ›

But don’t you try talking when you’re ringing my bell

I can barely talk when it’s happening sometimes. I might manage to get a little squeak out but ,if I somehow manage more, there’s no guarantee I’ll get out what I want to say, the way I want to say Read more ›

Mamma may scold me ’cause she’s told me it is naughty

To this day, I still get scolded quite regularly. I guess that’s because I can’t help but be naughty. At every turn, I’m lectured for my nastiness, castigated for my wickedness and even chastised for my scandalous ways. Are my Read more ›

I know I like the touch that makes you glow

Remarkably it works every time. The show starts and within seconds we’ve made the connection and somehow manage to maintain contact no matter how long we go. Each flick of a switch seems sets you aflame, every nudge brings you Read more ›

I dream and its got me scheming

I dream a lot. Sometimes it’s a simple dream.  A bubble above my head, a preoccupation with what we do together. Other times, it’s an all out fantasy of everything sensational and silly, a trance that transports me and seems Read more ›

Lately I got an awful urge to hang around

Some people think this radio show is nothing more than seconds to shilly-shally.  You and I know they’re wrong. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t see it as my weekly opportunity to lounge about audibly…lingering on every sound…lollygagging as Read more ›

My mind it exploded with beauty

Yeah…there are a few things that make me explode.  You’ve seen it happen any number of times. A good tune can touch off my tempest like you’ve never seen. A caress of comedy and I simply come apart in convulsions. Read more ›

The B’s Knees – Best of 2011

2011 surprisingly made this B’s knees weak on any number of occasions. And the music was pretty good, too. Here’s the rundown of our faves with a smattering of the running commentary from the staff and listeners over at the Read more ›

These tangled hours we just can’t unwind

I don’t even know how we got here. But I am oh so happy we did. No matter what uncomfortable spot we find ourselves in, somehow we manage to find a way to be more comfortable than we’ve ever been Read more ›

Her sugar bowl is loaded

I’ve been described a lot of ways in my time on the air. Sweet.   Temptress.  A fucking scholar.  Pornographer. That list could actually go on and on. Instead I think you should listen to last night’s show and come to Read more ›

Well let’s work up an appetite

I get really really hungry sometimes. And, when I do, I get a little crazy.  All I can think about is devouring what isn’t in front of me.  I try to figure out how to get it and get it Read more ›

We’re gonna do things with our fingers

My fingers stay so busy during the show. I type.  I poke.  I make air quotes. I prod.  I point.  I let my fingers do the walking. I count.  I cross.  I burn my fingers. But what’s my favorite thing Read more ›

But I take my thrills 33 and a third

Record Store Day sure got me thrilled for last night’s show. I could barely contain myself…or all of the material I brought to share with you.  Heck, I didn’t even have time to take pictures! Yet you still seem to Read more ›

And some, like me, could use a whole lot more

Last night was one of those nights. One of those nights where there was just no way I was ever going to get enough of you. One of those nights where you kept begging me for more.  And I wanted Read more ›

I wish that I could blame it all on you

Just how many times can I reference “You, the listener” anyway? You know I like to invoke you whenever I can. To utter your “name” arouses me to the fact you’re really there with me. To vocalize your presence reminds Read more ›
