The Gerard Cosloy Radio Hour (That Feels Like Two Hours)

Because it"s really two hours long. Sometimes even longer. How long a musical journey would you go on without having replaced the windshield blades?

Last Friday's National Shutdown here in the USA raised a number of question that may or may not be answered in this week's program. For starters, it is a (slight) shame none of the organizers saw fit to credit retired MLB veteran Derek Bell who popularized the phrase "Operation Shutdown" some 24 years ago. While there's little in Bell's resume to indicate he'd be an effective ally for this particular movement, it would only have been POLITE to reach out to him> On a some...

with last week’s passing of longtime New Jersey cable fixture Florio Vivino aka Uncle Floyd, there’s been much said about Vivino’s comedic chops, his many celebrity patrons (including but not limited to David Bowie and Howard Stern) and the countless appearances by iconic musicians including by not limited to Adrenalin OD, Rupert Holmes, NRBQ and Blue Oyster Cult. Comparatively little has been written about the two appearances by Genöcide (featuring the late Bobby Ebz) and even less abo...

while other programs have done a wonderful (well, adequate in some cases) job of memorializing Bob Weir over the past week, I will instead leave you with the following words from Sleep Chamber’s John Zewizz that should really put everything into proper perspective LIFE IZ NEVER FOREVER. DEATH IZ. NOTHING IZ EVER FAIR. NOTHING IZ GUARANTEED. YOU ARE WHAT YOU MAKE YOURSELF. YOUR DESTINY IZ IN YOUR OWN HANDS. YOU AZ AN INDIVIDUAL STAND APART FROM ALL OTHES BECAUSE OV YOUR THOUGHTS, DESIRES...

in recent times, the film world’s powers that be have mercifully decided that biographies chronicling the lives of nobodies like Freddie Mercury, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen are no longer necessary, instead trying to mollify us with the saga of a Neil Diamond tribute act. While I would not necessarily describe this as progress, it does slightly open a window of possibility of a forthcoming feature film telling the story of STUPIFY, one of Cleveland’s top 5 or 6 Disturbed tribute ban...

for the first (or second?) show of 2026, I regrettably need to preface the program with a couple of apologies. As opposed to the nearly half dozen apologies that proceed most weeks. for starters, I know I’d promised with great fanfare that this week would feature the global streaming premiere of Vinnie Vincent’s hotly anticipated CD single, “Ride The Serpent”. As you’re probably aware, Vinnie is selling said CD online for $200 (plus $25 shipping) to discourage piracy, however, his keen busin...

i’ve been told there’s a lengthy essay in today’s NY Times, something along the lines of “Is Rock Dead : Maybe?” I’ve neither the time or inclination to read such a piece, particularly as I’m already aware rock has been on life support for some time and only following Rusted Shut’s January 17 set at the Crowbar can we conclusively declare it d-e-a-d. However, following news that a revered local nightspot (ok, repository for the worst fucking pop-punk / dork metal / who-gives-a-sh...

I’ve been asked once or twice, what, if anything, would i want to do MORE THAN ANYTHING to commemorate my 6100st birthday? I’ll admit, it was a difficult choice. Drive into the Comal Street's White Horse with a bulldozer? Visit the Turner Curling Museum of Weyburn, Saskatchewan? Spend the afternoon with Texas Railroad Commissioner Wayne Christian and his lovely family? These are all very attractive options, however it’s too late in the day to rent a bulldozer, the Curling Museum is closed for...

today’s program, the penultimate episode of 2025, was meant to be a full review and unboxing of the latest reissue of NME’s 1986 classic (?) ‘Unholy Death’ - a 7 LP + blu ray + coffee table book collection. Sadly, I misplaced my half dozen or so box cutters (these are like socks for me except they’re much sharper and cause more damage when you find them inside pockets) and I cannot get the fucking box open. As such, I am only able to speculate as to the quality of the unreleased demos, the qu...

it’s been several years since I asked you, dear listeners, to join me in mourning for my dearly departed Amaré Stoudemire Skullkandy headphones. To recap, said cans sounded like SHIT, however they were glorious to look it. Sadly, they were also about as durable as their namesake. And with that, I pivoted to Grado Labs’ open back headphones (looked like shit, sounded glorious). In the space of less than 4 years, I’ve had no fewer than 2 pairs of new Grado phones fall-the-fuck-apart and it’snot...

with each holiday season, there’s typically one or two highly coveted items that set up a frenzy amongst consumers, the-must-have-gift-of-the-year, if you will. The Furby. Nintendo Switch. For the well heeled and easily influence by marketing amongst us, perhaps the Peloton. In 2025, however, the can’t-miss gift is unquestionably the 7 DVD box set, “Dr. Gene Scott 95th Birthday Commemorative Edition : The Spiritual Nitro Pills” Currently marked down from $139.99 to a mere $59.99, ...

as a few of you are probably aware, today’s NY Times has an extensive report cataloging recent signs of abject fatigue displayed by the current chief executive. While I am typically not in the habit of defending a charmless, thoroughly corrupt pathological liar and bigot, in fairness, his alleged propensity for DOZING OFF while on the job is something I can (sadly) relate to. Over the years, here’s a short list of circumstances in which I have fallen asleep : du...

today’s show marks the 21st anniversary of what came to be known as “Malice At The Palace”, the (in)direct inspiration for Wizznuttz’ amazing reinterpretation of Picasso’s “Guernica”, aka “Aubernica”. For all the seismic changes the incident brought about in spheres of professional sports and crowd control, it is deeply regrettable “Aubernica” does not occupy space in a public gallery (aside from, well, this post), but we live in different times. If I want to watch the clip of Jermaine ...

We live in times of GREAT UNCERTAINTY. Who can say, for instance, if the charade we call democracy will even maintain the pretense for another 12 months? If you’re lucky enough to afford to climb aboard an airplane, what guarantee is there you won’t smash into another? Will anyone, besides the uber wealthy, be capable of feeding their families or availing themselves of health care? The answer to these questions, much like “should anyone pay for a premium ...

good morning friends, and as deeply encouraged many of us might be following last night’s mayoral election results in New York City, I remain cautiously hopeful that some day in the future there will be a major candidate for high office willing to address the needless, senseless proliferation of hot takes.

And that’s why I do this program each and every week, to try and help you make sense of the senseless. I’ll admit that I’ve not done a particularly good job in the regard — I tend to get sidetracked with a particular musical theme and completely disregard whatever larger point I’d so...

so none of my so-called friends thought it was worth mentioning that the National Crime Prevention Council’s ill-advised 1988 cassette, ‘McGruff’s Smart Kids Album’ had recently been reissued on multiple formats by some enterprising record label and all available copies are G O N E. On the endless list of things going wrong near and far, this probably ranks rather low when it comes to issues to be massively upset over. But as you have probably learned by now, with the possible exception of Pa...

if you’re like me (and I suspect a few of you are), you were surprised but hardly outraged at the NFL’s recent announcement that Bun E. Carlos would be headlining the Super Bowl halftime show next February. Granted, a 15 minute drum solo is not everyone’s brand of entertainment (and technically, since this is an instrumental performance, no one will be singing in English) but given Cheap Trick’s election to tour without Bun E. for several years now, this is a unique opportunity to remin...

greetings friends, I nearly wasn’t able to complete this week’s episode after being diagnosed with a case of minor men’s whiplash acquired while reading the New York Times’ recent, “Is It OK To Use Your Phone On The Toilet?” article. Weirdly enough, I was not reading said think (?) piece on the toilet but instead an airport monorail that made an abrupt stop, hence the Joel Gertner signature neck brace that I’ll be sporting for the foreseeable future. On the bright side, this does open the doo...

this week’s planned Goner Fest preview was scrapped at the last minute in favor of a two hour roundtable (pizza) discussion concerning the mooted mid 1990’s merger of eco-cult Zendik Farm with purveyor of delicious (albeit highly processed) baked goods Pepperidge Farm. Did it fall apart when the former’s patriarch, the late Wulf Zendik (above) learned the latter’s vaunted cheddar cheese goldfish in fact, contained no fish whatsoever? Or was the issue Pepperidge Farms upper management taking u...
