In Hawaii in the mid-sixties I was always listening to KPOI AM radio, who had their own weekly “Top Ten.” I don’t recall ever hearing about 40 till years later.
The local folk/rock/weirdo radio station just had a too-brief Harry Chapin retrospective, which led me to listening again to some of his more obscure songs.
“There Only Was One Choice” is still brilliant:
“Bluesman” is also wonderful:
And “Dance Band” has always been a favorite.

Gilbert Gottfried has released his entire archive of Celebrity Interviews. This was behind a Stitcher pay wall but now he is offering it for free and has a Patreon page. The interviews are in depth but also NSFW. I recommend the interviews with Dick Van Dyke, Mickey Dolenz, and Peter Fonda. Available at Apple and elsewhere.
I also liked George Schlatter’s podcast interview, and of course the Mario Cantone guested Christmas specials are already a holiday tradition in our house: “Have we all emptied our bladders? Then we’ll begin.”
Mick Garris has also appeared on the Podcast!
