Without Scott Adams we would not have this subplot in an episode of Newsradio. Was all the rest worth it? .......No. www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9mA...

It is happening again

First new mix of the year with sneak previews, old standbys, and speculative future hits. www.otherdavemoore.com/p/maybe-im-n...

Since it is Jörgen Elofsson day (mentioned on a comedy podcast) I will defend this song being great. But I also want to think up a good phrase for a song that clarifies the fault lines between your taste and someone else's. Taste tectonics? www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORAS...

That post about millennials using "lol" like they're saying "stop" in a telegram has ruined my life lol

Marie Serneholt album "Enjoy the Ride" is still really good. This was always my favorite from it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nV4p...

I can't tell if I've found something on the ground floor before it spirals into a viral global sensation. Can't figure out if it's covering or interpolating something famous? The chorus... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZV9s...

Wrote four paragraphs in the Radio Disney and realized there are like five books in it. Gonna have to post through it.

This is really good

Finally had to unpin the Popular with Friends feed, will just assume the news of the world will still reach me somehow

It is time...

How'd I miss this one before Peoples Pop (answer: I do not keep up with Tim F enough) www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FS4...

Welp, I took my usual month off, but music's still good 👍

Don't overthink it, Stranger Things, "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" was *right there*

Love getting a new permanent self-created earworm in my head (singing "Monaleo" to the tune of "Havalina" by the Pixies)

new year's stomach virus has now cleared the whole household, back to finding new music while I attempt to eat a pretzel

Working on notes for my next series on Radio Disney. Have to decide how SICKOS I'm gonna go for it. I'm leaning toward "full sickos."

Gonna listen up my Taylor Swift mashups at the peak of my stomach virus, going into the new with ego death

Was really hoping for “picaresque” oh well

Last 2025 mix is (unsurprisingly) mostly a People’s Pop golden beat slate. Now on to the new stuff… www.otherdavemoore.com/p/youre-not-...

“Where’s My Husband” not really my thing but it sounded great in public (hadn’t yet heard it out and about) well done all

This is great as usual. Thanks to @carlzoilus.bsky.social for the shout out to the A-pop series! www.otherdavemoore.com/p/the-rise-o...

The only surefire way to know you have developed wisdom is accepting that whitechocolatespaceegg is the best Liz Phair album

<Rodney Dangerfield voice> I’m tellin’ ya this guy was BIG!

If you’re not familiar with The Neighborhood Listen podcast, we improvise in character based on Nextdoor posts but also sometimes we do watchalongs to five minutes of a movie. This one got away from us. Thanks to listener “T. Asimuth Schwitters” for putting this together

Lots of comments assuming this was Swift or Wallen, but the most annoying takedowns are usually unexpected. When I did my Terry Riley/Taylor Swift mashup it was the Riley part that got the takedown. (it has been reinstated) m.youtube.com/watch?v=0s1X...

…and his boots are yellow…

<finishes the final page of “Nightmare Alley,” sobs> It just….slaps…..so hard.

<kids singing “Timber”> “How do you even know this song?” “This song is everywhere!” “I love Pitbull!” The long 10s is real :/

I unfortunately still think this is very funny m.youtube.com/watch?v=hsVK...

The Knocks f. Sneaky Sound System: The One m.youtube.com/watch?v=_MQ1...

<slowly pockets “lucky fork”>

The one song I did not stump for enough in the year ends that I sort of regret not nomming for @peoples-pop-polls.bsky.social is Arp Frique and the Perpetual Singers “Hold the Line” Another Taste rework. m.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ61...

We’ve discovered the most roundabout way possible for people to read their own writing aloud before publishing it

Today I lived that xkcd comic about geochemistry but for Taylor Swift

I’m sure you do not need more holiday recommendations but this does sound pretty good with drinks and appetizers open.spotify.com/playlist/2Gb...

Blues Traveller street team 2k25

<looking at the floor in my house> there’s some floors in this house, there’s some floors in this house…

There is a dog Frisbee championship on in this sports bar sponsored by UPDOG so I got to teach my kids the best joke while watching a genuinely incredible sporting event

This way lies madness and/or seven-volume time loop masterpieces

Last but not least! #2025FavSingles Merry Christmas from Tokyo Syoki Syodo 東京初期衝動 - 岡崎京子のあの娘になりたかった [Okazaki Kyoko No Ano Ko Ni Naritakatta] m.youtube.com/watch?v=v7aY...

Bari Weiss looks like she should be making some poor teacher's life miserable as a middle school administrator

#2025FavSingles Yasmine Hamdan: I Remember I Forget Pipped at the post in Peoples Pop Polls; pushing this pretty/profound provocation, preempting a peppy pop posse www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjMX...

Elementary school DJ report: “Gabriela” —> “Doot Doot (6 7)” —> “Dynamite”

Real "did I just do your job for you?" moment reading about a lost teenpop tape unearthed by Numero Group in the RiotRiot year-end singles riotriot.substack.com/p/you-foreve... www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaGo...

#2025FavSingles WeTalkSound, Fimi, SGaWD: Hei God I don't keep up enough with Nigerian cruise, which I often like more than bigger Naija pop scenes -- this is one of the first songs I'd heard that seems informed by cruise music indirectly www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7ug...

I almost fell asleep reading the plot synopsis of the new Avatar movie on Wikipedia. Will still go see it in IMAX next time I need a painkiller scrip
