Here's to Jimi Hendrix, who died OTD in 1970 & ever since, has been part of every high school kid's life as they begin exploring rock history and digging into classic rock. I was thinking the other day, as Jimi came on the radio, about whether that still happens with the youth, and God, I hope so.

Can't recommend adopting a rescue dog enough.
Shelters nationwide are overflowing. I know budgets are tight right now ... but if you can, please adopt a shelter dog. Some of them might have a little baggage from previous mistreatment, but the love and gratitude you'll get from an orphaned dog is beyond amazing. It'll feed your soul.

I've been 58% into Ted Lasso S4 (the Goose rating method @mikeshza.bsky.social ) but this week's ep was the first to move the needle. Felt like old times. Ted on a dating app is nuts tho. He's probably a bit of a celebrity in England; an EPL gaffer. But whatever. Good Lasso Vibes are back, baby.

Wait...why does Ed Sheeran need a backing band? Isn't his whole thing live doing the Keller Williams thing from back in the day, where he does all kinds of loops and stuff, layering instruments he played?
Ugh, actually...

Happy 30th anniversary to one of the coolest albums ever, Endtroducing by DJ Shadow. Funky, smooth, sinister, atmospheric, menacing, mesmerizing, dense and so much more. And hey, that's Lyrics Born (in a wig) on the cover and that's cool.

I’m just saying, if that rascal Johnny Blue Skies added a horn section to the mix, even for a show or two, it would be effin incredible.

The Guardians: As a Green Lantern, you'll have this ring. A super-powerful ring. Can create anything you conjure up. Anything. The only kicker is that you will need to drop everything and recharge it every few days.

Maybe it’s the weather.
Maybe it’s because it’s Monday.
Maybe it’s because I eeked out wins in fantasy.
Or maybe it’s just because all I can listen to lately is good ol’ Johnny Blue Skies but it’s a Sturgill kind of morning.

Love this take on Neil Young's "Like A Hurricane" by My Morning Jacket & Preservation Hall Jazz Band. Starts out super delicate and ethereal, then gets huge when the horns come in & the guitars start shredding.

On this day 20 years ago, Snoop buys a new nail gun and it’s one of the coolest season-opening cold opens ever. The Wire Season 4 Ep1: “Boys of Summer.” The whole season is a wrecking ball of genius.
