2019/07/23

Without going into too much detail we find out generally what the structure was of the Senator’s marriage encounter retreat and a little bit about what the process was like as always from the perspective of a moron and by they way this moron is a two time loser in the marriage game. Before we get to the marriage retreat stuff there’s a quick blip about Mexico’s President Obrador… we mispronounce his name... claiming that he wants the 14 Billion dollars that El Chapo made selling drugs in the United

You know my friend the Senator has a lot going on this summer… he’s on a Marriage retreat, he’s preparing for a 12 day hike around the Lake Tahoe rim trail and in that preparation he tells us about an encounter with a snake and somehow he thinks that if a poisonous snake bites you it dies. Seriously… again, the word Moron is in the name of this show for a reason. Somehow this snake story brings up Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom. Remember that show? Was it on Saturday afternoons or Sunday

Please forgive this lengthy intro as we really cover some ground in this show. We talk about how great local neighborhood 4th of July parades are and how the Senator really brought a nice afternoon party to a screeching halt by reading the declaration of independence aloud… some nice work there… We quickly talk about your FRA… or Full retirement age. You can start claiming at 62 but you’ll get 25 to 30% less for the rest of your life, so you might want to wait until 67 and get the full amount. The

Radio Daze Gone By

2019/07/03

Many years back, and I mean many years back in the late 80’s and early 90’s I worked in the radio broadcasting industry in Southern California: Los Angeles, Palm Springs, Santa Barbara and an area known as “The Inland Empire”... it’s sort of a “shadow market” of the Los Angeles area which we didn’t particularly love. It encompasses the San Bernardino/ Riverside areas of Southern California. It was there during the early 90’s that I was actually on a morning show for a couple-a-three years. It was a

we b.s. about the lack of diversity in the party that claims to embrace diversity and the leading candidate, “huggin’ Joe Biden” we also talk about the old news of Trump saying he would look at any “dirt” provided by another country on a competing candidate for president and how Trump said in front of the reporter’s corps that he was “the most transparent president in the history of the country”. Right. In one moment I appreciate what I call his honest answer and in the next I think he's nothing

One of the great things about podcasting is that I get the final say as to what goes on each episode, yay! One of the not so great things is that I get the final say as to what goes on each episode. If you think it’s good, then Yay for both of us. If you think it stinks then it’s on me. But what one person thinks is good another person thinks it stinks… like sound effects for example. Or, the first ten minutes of this episode. The Senator is back and in the first ten minutes he makes a feeble

My guest is radio personality in the Boulder, Ft. Collins and Denver area and stand up comedian Christine Lederman. We talk about her afternoon drive shift in Denver and Boulder Colorado and what a great sports town Denver is. I get so excited about it that I refer to Colorado as a city. I have a Larry Walker story to tell from the Colorado Rockies. She also talks about her time in the hotel industry where she used to book hotels for paranormal Ghost hunters… seriously. That’s the kind of top

Welcome to another episode of the Modern Moron! I’m flying solo today and it will probably show. I talk about Donald Trump’s visit to the United Kingdom and a welcome he might have been able to see as he flew in. Then I cover an article in USA Today that discusses tips on getting the most out of your social security… that’s right in our wheelhouse… and I wrap up with a couple of recommendations on Netflix. And I start out by discussing the invasiveness of Alexa, Cortana, Siri, etc. but mainly

I’ve had way too many occupations for a moron my age and a good number of those jobs were in the Los Angeles area. I catch up with a long time friend of over 20 years who is originally from Boston. In this episode we do some catching up and talk about her son who has finished his junior year of high school and has already visited some college campuses. You probably know through your own kids or grandchildren even that this process starts waaaaayyyyy sooner than it did when we were contemplating

What do you do when you can’t count on a moron to keep a commitment? You get a 10 year-old to replace him. My daughter and her friend, with mommy’s consent, sit down with the Moron to examine some of the challenges ten years on this planet can bring. We talk about birthday parties… we talk about what it’s like to lose a pet, what it’s like to have a ceremony for a pet and then rapidly switch to the subject of cartoons and life before Cartoon Network. We have a discussion about boys and I’m not

Hold on to your protons… because in this edition of the Modern Moron we change our initials MM to Miraculous Madduri. If you remember some time ago I interviewed Achyntia Madduri who has a PhD in Electrical engineering. His work involved independent solar grids that could be deployed to disaster victims. Well in this show we’re going to talk to the block that he is a chip off of as they say, his father, Dr. Somayazulu Madduri. He is a scientist as well and is part of a breakthrough in

In this episode we have our first 3-way! The Senator and I interview a mutual friend and our second retired firefighter. This gentleman was an Emergency Medical Technician and Ambulance driver for his department. We find out the difference between an EMT and a full Paramedic which is interesting to me but apparently boring to the Senator as he takes over the interview and instead we hear about a firehouse prank and about our guest’s successful battle with cancer… we even tease him about his cancer

We conclude our Easter chat by talking about Bernie Sander’s new found wealth, I get angry (surprise) about the old farts running on the democratic ticket as well as Rudy Giuliani. We have a weeks old Mayor Pete update so I guess that’s not really an update is it? Then the Senator talks about (and to) his new Alexa device. We have a couple of entertaining YouTube videos we point to and then… We’re done. Except I forgot to stop recording and we end up truly exhibiting what white privileged idiots.

The Senator has belated Easter wishes for you so we have to talk about the horrible fire at Notre Dame Cathedral last week and ALL that money that was donated… over a billion dollars! Then we can’t figure out the name of the Yellow Vest Movement in France. (morons) We chat about a brief meeting of the minds between Cher and Donald Trump over immigration. I confess my brief foray into Facebook that lasted about twenty minutes. And we conclude with a tragic story of the Senator losing a cat and

On this very special episode our initials TMM stand for ‘The Music Man’. I mentioned that I had the privilege to attend a memorial service for an acquaintance and a friend named Ken Welch. He and his wife and collaborator Mitzie were musicians, performers, musical arrangers and producers and worked with some very notable talents that you will definitely recognize. I get a chance to interview one of Ken’s daughters about his life in music which will take us back to the golden age of television

2019/04/16

The Senator's father has written an obituary for himself and the Senator has a rebuttal to the obituary. What a moron. The old man attends a memorial service himself. We talk about a sexist comment in the new Spiderman trailer and we conclude with the Jussie Smollett case being dropped and he refuses to pay the court costs of his staged assault. It's all worth it because Charles Barkley puts it all into perspective for us.

We’re back with the Senator discussing the heavy hitting important issues of the day like: Joe Biden’s Hugging Habits… Donald Trump as a 5-year-old boy… literally not just behaving like one. We mention the Meuller report and the definition of the word “redacted”, the Yelp documentary called Billion Dollar Bully and the Senator ponders an ancestry DNA test. I hope he passes.

Our consultant gives us notes and recommendations about the show. It's scary but we're going to try and keep an open mind. Also, our consultant is a retired firefighter and we talk briefly about the time he spent in the administrative end of firefighting and how he felt it helped his career. And we discuss a little bit about the not-very-pleasant side of being on an emergency scene and how some firefighters might use humor to deal with tragedy.

We discuss the possibility that we could actually have another listener besides you. we talk about our responsibility and commitment to our listeners and our guests because it's you guys who are doing this Moron a huge favor which leads to me having a guilt trip over thinking I am a sexist. BUT… I am NOT my thoughts. Everyone has a thought now and then that does not reflect their true nature. Except the Senator who apparently is a magnanimous humanitarian 24/7.
