The Best Neighbors Podcast Ep 198

“I am singing & reading, BOTH!”

Hi ya, Neighbors! How’s everyone keeping this week? Are you as sick of Lisa Rinna’s weepy cry acting as we are? Let’s get right to it–RHOBH are still in Rome & still sticking it to Denise (much like Brandi did! SFX-Rimshot!); but the Vatican won’t have ’em. On RHOP, Gizelle’s been up to the devil’s business behind the scenes.

And our beloved booze bags on RHONY are still in Mexico, where the ladies manage to have some fun, dive in a cave, & visit a shaman, despite Dorinda succumbing to Montezuma’s revenge. We have some recs from Netflix & Hulu, as well as a cool website to check out. Enjoy & stay well!

Not Fade Away (Replay)

 Jerry Garcia

1942-1995

Hey there! Hi There! Ho there!

The Not Fade Away podcast is back and have we got a hell of a subject today--Jerry Garcia.

The eternal hippie/hipster believed in seeking truth and enlightenment above all else.

When Jerry passed on August 9, 1995, just a week after his 53rd birthday, he left behind a 30+ year legacy of music, poetry, art, groovy ties, and ice cream that are still talked about to this day.

This show is very bittersweet for me as my younger brother John was a HUGE Dead Head for over 25 years and we lost him last year to a serious illness.

When I hear Jerry’s music now I have a wave of emotions come over me and I was not sure if I could dig into the life of such an interesting and complicated person. But ultimately, I wanted to give him a proper farewell that would have made my brother proud.

I just hope it makes you smile and brightens your day. In this episode, I am breaking up into two parts.

Part 1. I talk about the life and death of Jerry Garcia

Part 2. I spoke with the band’s publicist and historian Dennis McNally to talk about his years with the group and he patiently answers my plethora of questions about Jerry and band.

“A Reckoning for Bravo”

 

Hey there, Neighbors, how’s your week been? With nicer weather here in Bklyn, our spirits are lifted a bit, but there’s still much going on in our world. But we take our comfort where we can, which is why we watch these human garbage fires like the Housewives! No Bev Hills this week (boo hiss boo) but we have RHONY. Our patience is wearing thin with Dorinda, but bye-bye Tins, we wish you well, even if these monsters don’t. We also talk about the new 30 for 30 on Bruce Lee; the latest Dirty John, and The 13th. We’re also thinking of having a film festival/club for our neighbors. Whaddaya think?
