Escorting the nine-year-old to a friend’s birthday pool party, I told him I wasn’t going to swim in part because I’m dressed for work. He told me I could just jump in like Mamdani did. This is what socialism does to our children.

Professor of Rock Adam Reader says that's his favorite cover.

Ken Paxton owns 15 homes in Texas. Am I the only one thinking here???? Turn them into three hotels!

Great sesh, as always. Is it me, or does the #AT40 energy get especially geeked when it's 1971????

Let me just say, I understand the relevance, but the fact that this is The Raiders biggest hit really needs to be investigated. (Especially when you have @thetruants.bsky.social gig staples "Kicks," "Just Like Me," "Steppin Out" and "Good Thing....") #AT40

We‘re one executive order away from a chocolate fountain.

Since Casey mentioned him, here's my favorite shot of Brando, who once said, "I live in my cat's house...." #AT40

From the otherwise okay film Funny People.... Seth Rogen character (to James Taylor, coming off stage): "You ever get tired of singing 'Fire and Rain?'" James Taylor: "You ever get tired of talking about your dick?" #AT40

Would it have killed Casey's producer to cut seemlessly from "Want Ads" to "Mr. Big Stuff?" Medley 101! #AT40

"Draggin the Line" was on Tommy James second solo album, "Christian of the World." The cover of his first, "Tommy James," which came out September 1970, was done by my late wife, pre-comic then artist Adrianne Tolsch.... #AT40

Jaybeau at 70son7 once played "Get It On" and dedicated the 2:30 soundcheck to me "and the Saturday noon gang at #AT40 on Twitter..." Good times....

How come this song is soooo much better on paper? #AT40

Top Three All-Time cover for me: Isley's "Love the One You're With." #AT40

Barry Manilow did a concert a couple of years ago and outside the arena there was Neo-Nazi rally. I suggested to my pal Larry who writes for him that, just for the night, he rename one of his hits "Weekend at Nuremberg" #AT40 #DirkWilbury #Stayclassy

Ahem !!!!!!! #AT4O

My band, @thetruants.bsky.social, not only play it regularly, but also the B side, "Gotta Get Away" youtu.be/DBQndtTGqmo?...

A lot of people think "Rock the Boat" is the first Disco song. Which is funny, because a lot of other people give that title to "Rock Your Baby." God bless them. Not me. #AT40

#AT40 Factoid of the Day, Week, Year, Millenium.

"Rock and Roll Heaven" co-written by the late Sonny Geraci, former front man of The Outsiders ("Time Won't Let Me," "Respectable") and Climax ("Precious and Few"). #AT40

By the way, this is your regular notice that long before rap sampling, Steely Dan was unapologetically ripping off Horace Silver for the hook on "Rikki, Don't Lose That Number." #AT40

Live look-in at Clint Holmes Fan Club meeting when @radiofreetom.bsky.social name comes up.... #AT40 media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2l...

Hey Casey, Anne Murray is free to make her choices when she covers a song, but you? You need to pronounce the friggin title right. It's "You Won't See Me." not "YaWon't SeMe." Good Christ. #AT40

The Sting is a great a movie as "The Entertainer" is interminable. Discuss.... #AT40
