I got to thinkin' the other day (when I am not talking a lot, I'm thinking a lot) about how now that WIRY is closed, how will Santa communicate via his very short wave radio to the children of the No Co (and beyond!)

So, I did what my Ma taught me to do way back when I was a kid: I wrote a letter, burned it in the cook stove, and hoped the wind would carry my message to Ol' Saint Nick and he'd reply.

Wouldn't you know, he did! Of course he did, because he's Santa Claus!

Just a word of caution: I'm a grown-up and that's why I chose to send my letter to Santa through smoke. I'll soon have a safer way for the little ones to get me their letters.

As with most things these days, it does cost money to organize this kind of thing. I reached out to my pals at New-Plattsburgh Sourdough Co to see if we could work together to bring this hometown tradition back to life and they agreed to be our lead sponsor!

If you are a small business who would like to sponsor the program, please reach out to me: [email protected].

If you are a musician who would like to send
your original or public domain Christmas music, to be used on the show, please use that same email.

Once we get a little feedback on whether or not there is interest in the program, I'll share the ways you can get your letter to me so I can send them to Santa at the North Pole to be read online at the Electric Zee YouTube page.

Merry Christmas from Electric Zee and Plattsburgh Sourdough Co.!

According to the Old Farmer's Almanac, November’s Full Beaver Supermoon reached peak illumination today at 8:19 AM.

This is the first of these howls where I've had to use an umbrella! It's too cloudy to see the full moon where I am, but I hope it clears up later.

Let's howl!

I'm thinking about buying 1 inch buttons. Would you buy one?
Proceeds will go toward a paid Zoom account for interviews.

On this night, back in the 90s, I would have been out cabbagin' on Cabbage Night.

Instead, tonight I got into a bit more wholesome mischief and I couldn't wait to share it.

I miss making radio, but especially Halloween radio.

I went through my archives and found a recording of the last live Halloween radio show I did, back in 2021. My last Halloween show in 2022 was voice tracked and lacked the same magic for me, as it was always my custom to do my Halloween show live, for 23 years up to that point.

"Voice tracking killed the radio star..."

Please enjoy this snapshot of my radio history. You can listen one hour at a time. It gets more spooky by hour 4. The audio quality isn't the best in some spots, because it was recorded from the FM monitor, but it gives it that nostalgic radio feel.

Happy (almost) Halloween from me to you!

(Photo from 10/31/21, the night of this show. Time flies.)

I've never uploaded to Internet Archive, so if this ends up not working, please let me know and I will see what I can do to fix it.

Hey pals, I have decided it's just too difficult to keep up with The October Project Retrospective.

I'm working on something for release for Halloween instead, which is a better use of the creative juice.

This last installment is very special to me and it would mean a lot it me if you visit the link and watch the video. (It's kinda long, almost 11 minutes.)

I love this weather!

I stopped drinking alcohol five years ago today.

I'm putting something together about it for the website, but I wanted to share it here because I am very proud of this accomplishment.

I don't know what comes after today, but I'm glad I made it here.

(PS: I'm in love with the new Tron soundtrack by NIN. I've been listening non-stop for the last 24 hours.)

So many folks are going through it right now.

Here's a little love from me to you, in case you need it tonight.
