As promised, tonight, following the Classic Rock Mine Beatlefest featuring 2 solid hours of Beatles in whole and in part, Bubbles in the Think Tank EAST will throw down with a big steaming heap of Beatle detritus. That’s right…songs loving… Read more ›

I feel like I’ve been in heavy rotation of late.  Perhaps it is having been in high demand, or just the spinning of the head.  I’d have to slow down to find out.  That’s hard to do when you’re being… Read more ›

I was wondering this week just when it was in my life that I decided that I need for everything to make me laugh.  TV, radio, books, all the usual stuff.  But also food, work, public transportation…you name it. I… Read more ›

…plan more than just the RadiObituaries on occasion. …consider how to reinvigorate Think Tank field trips in this new online-listening era. …keep the promises I make on air. …more clearly delineate where the shows are on this site. …continue bringing… Read more ›

Slowly regaining balance and achieving equilibrium, awaiting the departure of… oh, it doesn’t matter. Just try to enjoy this special Halloween episode and I’ll be back with more silliness soon enough. http://bubblesinthethinktank.com/east/10312009.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download

No show tonight, you Bubbles in the Think Tank EAST lovers. Your hostess, Belinda, has been stricken with vertigo of all things. At least I can think about Arrested Development, Jimmy Stewart, and High Anxiety. Things could be worse. I’ll… Read more ›

Ok, maybe a few more things than one… How Arrested Development was ever cancelled. Why Jodie Foster makes such dark movies. Where’s my jetpack? Spontaneous Human Combustion. How I ever got so lucky as to have Bubbles in the Think… Read more ›

Each time I undertake another episode of Bubbles in the Think Tank, I’m searching for something. Sometimes I find it by the end of the episode, other times the next day.  Occasionally it takes years.  Good thing I’m not in… Read more ›

I’ve been thinking a lot about process lately.  Those who know me know that I frequently do, but that’s usually more about organizational process at work.  These days, it’s all about mine. Stunned to think that Belinda is thinking only… Read more ›

Some nights you gotta quit while you’re ahead. I could have gone on, but chose instead to pack it up and go home a mere 20 minutes or so past our scheduled end time.  Oh, there was momentum that I… Read more ›

A sampling of joys in my Bubbles in the Think Tank life: When listeners let me know (even before the show starts) they are disappointed when life keeps them from listening. Playing something that I know Not Todd will love.… Read more ›

Another week, another show.  At least that’s what one might expect I feel. I spent eight hours on a train today on the way to DC.  I came prepared with my laptop, a  magazine and snacks.  Thank goodness. Not only… Read more ›

Still feeling a bit fussy following this week’s show, so I won’t blather on. What happened, you ask?  The show was perfectly lovely, but events outside that perfectly manicured bubble were incongruous to the love shared within. I shall merely… Read more ›

It doesn’t matter what is happening.  This is what is happening.  Nothing else happens that doesn’t affect it.  Its effect on all that I do is manifest at all moments.  I experience nothing in which it is not. It was… Read more ›

I’ve been quizzed a few times over the years about why I will occasionally play material that is clearly not funny on Bubbles in the Think Tank.  I usually just fall back on the standard “it’s not a comedy show,… Read more ›

I think it would be superfluous to add any comment on current events if I doth quote “Lemmings’ Lament“: We all want to go underground and get back to the earth, We don’t want nothing if it isn’t free. A… Read more ›

What?  You think a blog headline like that is irrelevant to a Bubbles in the Think Tank post?  Ok…so I’ve been watching the dog shows again, and I don’t believe that you can’t dispute the accidental precision of the random… Read more ›

When I was still hosting the home show, Bubbles in the Think Tank ORIGINAL, I played the cards close to the vest. No last name, no job references, no lots of things. And you say to yourself, “Didn’t she tell… Read more ›

While the WMFO transmitter has been at the spa, I’ve had chance (no…I’ve made the choice) to listen to a Boston area talk radio station during my weekly drive in to the show.  It’s been a harrowing experience.  The talk… Read more ›

At least I hope you want it.  You keep coming back for more of it, so what am I to assume? I’m secure knowing that Bubbles in the Think Tank makes me happy.  I believe that it holds the relative… Read more ›

In this archive, witness the virtual smackdown among news stories such as the 40 year anniversaries of both the Apollo moon landing and Chappaquiddick, as well as health care reform and the ridiculously large number of passings acknowledged in the… Read more ›

Oh, Robert Strange McNamara.  You just couldn’t let go and let it happen, could you? You could have taken a lesson from Oscar Mayer with the scariest version of the Wiener song ever.  You could have let it happen to… Read more ›

Was it the fireworks, the sight of the moon for the first time in weeks, or just the delirium of a four hour show?  Whatever it was, I’ll take a bucket of love like this anytime… it was olympian silliness… Read more ›
