  1. VARIOUS ARTISTS
    All Ears (10 New And Original Hits With A CB Theme)
    1977 U.S. pressing

    Quite the ridiculous record that I just couldn’t pass up, because it looked JUST like my kinda stupid.

    Made for Radio Shack in the mid #70s , this is a collection of songs that all have a CB theme to them.

    Rock, jazz, R&B, gospel, soul… this thing is ALL over the place, but all the songs drive down the Citizens Band 2-Way radio highway.

    In all honesty, there’s some pretty good tunes on here. “Honey Bee (Please Answer Me)” by Randy Goodrum is a particular standout for me, as is “Everybody's Somebody (In Our C.B. World)” by Ed Bernet.

    For only $1.00, I couldn’t go wrong.
    Pretty entertaining shit, straight down to the “Index Of Terms Used By CB’ers” on the back cover.

    10-4, good buddy.
    Over and out.

  3. Look, another gizmo promising to be the Swiss Army knife of tech toys 🤖✨. Apparently, it's for "makers, #pentesters, and geeks"—because who doesn't need an overpriced doodad to prove their superiority in tinkering 🔧🙄. Spoiler: It's just another gadget you’ll abandon in a drawer after the #novelty wears off. 😂🔋

  5. LEONARD NIMOY
    The Two Sides Of Leonard Nimoy
    1967 U.S. pressing

    I mean… put yourself in MY position.

    You’re in the record store, minding your own business, flipping through some used bins… and you come face to face with THIS record.
    Are you telling me you’re gonna walk away without buying it?
    You’re gonna leave the John Lennon of Vulcans there alone for some OTHER asshole to buy and have it enrich THEIR life?!
    No. I didn’t think so.

    “Highly Illogical” and “The Ballad Of Bilbo Baggins” are legitimate bangers.

    Tomorrow, when I wake up, I can look at myself in the mirror and know that I made the only LOGICAL decision there was to make.

    Live long(ish) and prosper, I guess.

  7. FLASH PACKAGING

    A lot of things marketed as pleasure are really just agitation with flash packaging.

    Sugar, outrage, scrolling, gossip, novelty, compulsive buying, the whole glittering little circus.

    Perfume on things that were never designed to make the body peaceful.

    This one has been in rotation for years but I remastered it yesterday. If you tune in long enough you'll hear it.

  11. "Cartoons" (also popularly known as "The Cartoon Song") is a #contemporaryChristian #novelty song by #singersongwriter #ChrisRice. The song humorously imagines popular #secular #cartoon characters #becomingChristians and #singingPraise with their own distinct variations of "hallelujah". Originating as a #tongueincheek #comedicSkit satirizing the Christian tendency to adapt #popularCulture.

  21. DR. DEMENTO
    25th Anniversary Collection (More Of The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time)
    1995 U.S. 2xCD issue

    Everybody needs a few chortles now and then.

    Novelty songs are the fucking best.
    Even the bad ones.
    Their main goal IS to be ridiculous and to make people laugh and smile.

    Dr. Demento’s sole purpose in life was to shine a light on these kinds of tunes and serve them up to people, both GOOD AND BAD.
    He introduced the world to Weird Al Yankovic, Barnes and Barnes, and so much more.

    Both artists are here, as well as a bevy of other insanely goofy and questionable tunes.

    You can’t throw something like this on and not laugh or feel good in some way.

    Today is definitely a day for it.
