Hi again! Have you ever seen a cow? and no, it doesn't count if she makes up the background setting for your favorite TV show or wears a big smile on the label of your milk jug that you buy from the grocery store. In my opinion, they are beautiful creatures to behold. I invite you to visit your local farm especially in June (National Dairy Month). Each cow wears a unique p...

Hello from the cornfield! What's up this week? How 'bout some tunes 'bout... hmmm. It's semi complicated to explain this week's theme, but I will try. When someone says cow-- what is the first image that comes to mind? Do you picture a black & white demon twenty times larger than yourself cowering over you as you prepare yourself to get stepped on by its hoofs and face...

Yo, turn it on, crank it up and floor it -- at 5 mph around the corn field! It's my vehicle of choice-- looking snazzy with a shiny new coat of red paint from a farmgirl's friend, Homer D. Poe.

Hopefully, I wasn't varying the temperature too much this week by playing songs with the theme of temperature in the title, artist, or album name. It's said that cows can predict the weather. Who needs Mark Baden, our hometown Channel 12 weather anchor, who always shows off...

I see you reading this post. Don't ask me how I know. I just do. Maybe I have secret powers. You'll never know unless I suddenly die, and it comes out in my post-mortal blurb that a real-life superhero walked amidst us, and we weren't even aware that super humans even existed outside of Hollywood. Some things are best left unsaid. Certain words can alter the present. Somet...

Come one, come all to the listen to the show being broadcast from the middle of the cornfield. That's right. This is probably the only one where the dj traipses out each week to the one spot where the tunes can float freely on the air waves. One isn't the loneliest number when you've got the many ears of corn listening to your every sing-song note. Besides, you're not the ...

Hi kids! Welcome back to another semester of Frozen Purple Cow, full of random cow jokes & random cow trivia & random cow milkshakes. To highlight the start of school (and the last semester), we chose to play songs following the school theme. Can you count the number of songs that have "story" in their title or the ones that name your favorite subject (if you said ...

The new time is Tuesday 9-10 PM EST. I'll be broadcasting moosic from my studio in the middle of the cornfield. A new week, a new theme featuring new jokes, new random cow fact...
