Pat reflects on the joys of spring yard work and the simple pleasures of life while sharing nostalgic memories and listener contributions on a beautiful Northern California day.
• Spring has arrived, bringing with it the sounds of mowers and the challenge of tackling weeds that grew rapidly during Pat's trip to Italy
• Voice assistants may be convenient but feel intrusive at times, unlike the simpler "Clap On, Clap Off" technology of earlier days
• The NFL draft approaches, prompting memories of historic draft blunders, particularly the Jets passing on Dan Marino
• Listener contributions include vintage radio commercials for Old Spice, The Clapper, and fireworks
• Discussion of Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes' "The Love I Lost" leads to Soul Train memories and dance lines
• Pat shares a rare promotional copy of "Come Go With Me" from his record collection, exploring the differences between versions
Wishing everyone a happy Easter weekend. He has risen.
