I hate asking for help, so this is hard for me to do. My family is facing some hardships and we are in desperate need of help. I know it's hard all over but any help would be appreciated. https://gofund.me/8ae30567
So, after over 44 years, MTV wants to shut it down. At least as far as music goes in Europe. So, here are my MTV memories, and what I think of them switching their music channels off in general.
UPDATE: I just found out they are NOT shutting down in the U.S.

Ever since we lost John Belushi when I was a kid (his was the first celebrity death I remember), we've lost some big-time legends throughout the years. This year was no different. From Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Ozzy Osbourne to D'Angelo and Ace Frehley. Here are my thoughts.

Junior Boomers, Gen Xers, Xennials, & Millennials looked forward to the Peanuts Holiday special for over fifty years. Then freakin' Apple+ bought the rights, and we have to either stream it if we want to watch those cartoons again or buy them on DVD (like I did).

For the story to make sense, click the link below and listen to that story first. Otherwise, this is something that just emerged from nowhere. When you're done listening to that one, come back and listen to what happens next... well, according to me.

Ed Gein, the Butcher of Plainfield, was shaped into the monster he became by the extremist religious upbringing and societal isolation his domineering mother demanded. When "Mother" died, the horror of Ed Gein was set into motion.

Do you think horror movies are dead? Or, did they evolve into something different? Join me in the comments and give me your opinions on the subject. And feel free to give me suggestions on what else you'd like me to talk about. I'd be glad to hear from ya!

This week, I have nothing to talk about, so I'm asking viewers what they want to see. Feel free to suggest nostalgia I may have missed, pop culture I may not have covered yet, or even True Crime you'd like me to explore. What would you like me to discuss?

LOL! It didn't make sense to me either.

TikTokers were crashing out, making jokes, and satire about the Rapture. They were selling their belongings, giving away their savings, quitting their jobs, and selling their homes and cars. But the Rapture didn't come. So, now what?

Sometimes, you can hear a song, not realizing there's more to the melody beyond what they're saying in the lyrics. Join me as I tell you the tragedy behind the song that's older than Johnny Cash, "Delia's Gone".

John Kontrides was asked who he thought the toughest generation was. To their surprise, he did not think it was Gen X. I must say I agree! Join me and I'll tell you why Gen X, though tough, is not the toughest generation.

Why do we get online and argue with people we don't know? Also, why did a guy try to make me feel bad after I apologized to him? Why did another dude try to make me believe he would pay me $3,000 per week to be his "Sugar Baby"?
Join me, won't you?

When we were younger, we noticed the background singers' voices sounded just as familiar (if not more so) as the person releasing the song. So, let's take a walk down Memory Lane with me and let's look back at some of the backup singers who were huge stars in their own right!

Why did the National Guard retaliate rock pelting with M1 rifles? Why did 4 innocent lives get snuffed out by trigger-happy Guardsmen, along with 9 others forced to carry physical and mental scars of that attack?
Join me, won't you? Let's talk about it. Did it anger you too?

I only got a few comments on last week's video, but after these unpleasant conversations, I 1.) Finally saw for myself how unpleasant incels are, and 2.) Decided to ignore the unhinged ones from now on.

I have a proposition for everyone who sees. Would you help me? I can't do this without you.

Should you hold yourself back for the sake of the comfort of society? Or should you just say, "F**K IT!" to conformity and live your truth as you see fit? So, join me as I take you on my 30+ year journey of realizing something about myself I never knew until I was this year years old!

Let's take a stroll down memory lane as I tell you about a few children's parties from my childhood and how I switched it up a little for my chil'rens. And tell me, did you do things differently for yours?

Just because a person does a certain job or writes about certain subjects, that does not open the door for you to put them in uncomfortable situations because your small brain thinks they should be "okay" with it. Or worse, that they would or SHOULD like it.

I did this one while thinking about my mom and the stories she used to tell me about her growing up. I miss her tremendously, so this one is in Loving Memory of My Mother.

So, I enter into the day in the life of a Gen X kid during the first Monday of Summer vacation in the 80s.

Since the beginning of the year, I found that men in the two generations after ours are interested in Gen X, Xennial/Elder Millennial women, and they are not afraid to tell us.

Here are some famous couples (older women and younger men) who captured the attention of the media and the public, made headlines, and sometimes, made us swoon and wonder "How did these younger guys capture the attention of these older women and vice versa?"

For Easter, Trader Joe's is selling pastel mini tote bags in four cute pastel colors: blue, mint green, pink, and lavender. Why are people losing their minds over $2.99 tote bags? And why don't they, log onto Trader Joe's website to buy them there?

Hi everyone! In this one, I wanted to discuss how every generation criticizes one another when we need to stick together. Especially now! So, why do we all pick on one another, and when and HOW does it end? Let's talk about it.

So, when we weren't outside playing with our friends, drinking out of water hoses, going to work or school, doing chores, or helping take care of our siblings (if we had any) or other kids we may have babysat, we watched television. Walkd down Memory Lane with me!
