Thoughts on the Big Mo Pod Show “Funkin’ Down the Highway”
This is a post about the Big Mo Pod Show we heard last night on the KCCK FM radio dial 106.9. Incidentally, the KCCK fund drive was enormously successful this year, earning $100,000 in donations, according to Big Mo (aka John Heim) himself. One item is the cover by Buddy Miles of the song “Tobacco…

Notes on the Blues and Rivers of Whiskey
I listened to the Big Mo Blues Show last night on KCCK radio (88.3 on your dial) as I usually do on Friday nights. It runs from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm and you can learn a lot from Big Mo (aka John Heim) about the blues. He also has a podcast called the Big…

Hit Them Back with Love
I didn’t get to listen to the Friday blues with Big Mo last Friday because my little Sony Dream Machine radio audio kept cutting out. But on the Friday blues of August 9, 2024, I heard a tune I liked. It was “Hit ‘Em Back” by Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Shemekia Copeland. Some blues songs…

Big Mo Pod Show Theme “Limitation Brings Innovation”
Last Friday night, the Big Mo Blues Show was recorded. I found the podcast, which had the theme “Limitation Brings Innovation.” The idea behind that was that sometimes when musicians lack the resources to, say, put together a big band sound, they often innovate to create a sound that’s new and surprisingly fresh and rivals…

Big Mo Pod Show “King of the Segway”
Hey, I managed to catch the Big Mo Blues Show on July 19, 2024 and then listened to the podcast the next day. Because our big Bose wave radio is packed away in storage as we wait for our house to be built, I had to use our little portable Sony Dream Machine in the…

Big Mo Pod Show- “Goodness is a Practice”
I’m out of sync with the Big Mo Blues Show and his podcast, mostly because we’re in the middle of this big move and we’re staying in a hotel waiting for this house to be built. I missed his most recent show, but caught the one before that. The podcast title was “Goodness is a…

When Do We Get Out of the Woods?
We were out walking the Terry Trueblood Trail the other day. It’s always good to get out of the hotel where we’re staying until our house is built. I get this cooped up feeling and it feels great to escape. While we were on the trail, we saw this huge field of giant, golden prairie…

Big Mo Pod Show: “Absorbing Influences”
I listened to the Big Mo Blues Show last Friday night on June 21, 2024 and wouldn’t you know, he was recorded. He wasn’t there live that night but as usual he put on a great show of blues music. And I listened to the Big Mo Pod Show a few days later, and the…

Annual Kickball Challenge Tonight: Psychiatry Residents vs Faculty
I almost forgot to announce the annual KickBall Challenge, which is tonight! This used to be called Matball, but is now called Kickball. It starts with pizza at 6 pm and then the barfing starts at 7 pm. Just kidding! Usually this event is marked by extreme heat and humidity, but I gather it may…

Big Mo Blues Show Podcast: “Chromatic Rock”
I caught the Big Mo Blues Show June 14th last Friday night. And I also caught the Big Mo Pod Show as well. Produce Noah got the month wrong for some odd reason. He said it was May 14th. Let it go. Anybody can be temporally impaired from time to time, including me. Anyway, the…
