The Midnight Citizen 240: "Backward Compatible"

Join Mike in the studio on a Saturday night…

…where he mourns the passing of Summer 2022 while wishing the world were more backwards compatible – you know, like computer software in the 90s. Also, colleges nationwide encourage their students to withhold their urges…at least in the showers, and a toast to Salman Rushdie, who DID NOT DIE after the long-standing Fatwa on his life was nearly executed last week.

The Midnight Citizen 230_cover.jpg

Join Mike in the studio late on a Saturday night…

Where he burns a bourbon-whisky scented candle he made, and wonders when the American “boy” becomes the American “man”. Perhaps it’s when he gets his first Boy Scout Handbook? Or maybe when he finds out the Boy Scouts are a sham? 

Also: memories of the Boy Scouts (all I got from it was a first place medal for the Pinewood Derby, a competition I cheated at); why I quit the Boy Scouts of America; the “manly” art of chandlery (candle making); Mancaves, and the modern obsession with being a “man” in the Teddy Roosevelt/Ernest Hemingway-sense; Sinclair Lewis’s Babbitt novel explored the notions of the American man as a role and facade; Music Break*; the waning days of summer; announcement this week that my 20 year high school reunion will be held in September, but I probably won’t go; signs of aging; a trip to the Video Street Video Store**; another Criterion haul from the Barnes and Noble (Medium Cool, Salesmen -- both 1969).

Join Mike on the balcony of his hotel room in Florida and on the steps outside his apartment after a very long and fulfilling trip to Savannah, Georgia and Amelia Island, Florida.

The Midnight Citizen 229_cover.jpg

Show Notes: Sitting on the beach in Florida with my wife, testing a makeshift windscreen for my Zoom recorder; relaxing with a cigar on the porch of either the oldest hotel in Florida or America (the literature on the Florida House Inn is contradictory) after a very stressful plumbing nightmare with our hotel room; recalling my last trip to Amelia Island with my family in 1995, where I climbed off our second floor balcony to pet a cat, and my mother got us lost for four hours looking for a Denny’s; the 1996 summer Olympics and the amorphous, asexual mascot, Izzy; the stress of coming home after a long trip; relaxing at home with a cigar and whisky; recalling my trip to Savannah, Georgia and the book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (1994) that made it famous; Savannah is supposedly the most haunted town in the country; recalling our tour through the Sorrel-Weed House, supposedly the most haunted house in Savannah; my adventure riding a horse past the famous tree from Forrest Gump (1994); how movies can implant artificial memories of having been someplace before; visiting Fort Pulaski on Tybee Island; eating at the Old Pink House; good to be home.

Midnight Citizen 228_cover.jpg

Join Mike in the studio on a Saturday night…

...wondering about where all the tapes of dads getting hit in the testacles with whiffle balls went after they were sent into Bob Saget in the late 80’s. Were they destroyed, or put in a warehouse somewhere, along with the Ark of the Covenant? 

Also: how America’s Funniest Home Videos (1989-present) may be the most prophetic show of the last 50 years; the time my sister and I made a video to send into the show, but found out you can’t stage a gaff; how Internet culture and YouTube now is centered around staging gaffs, but pretending not to; Ernie Anderson, the voice of ABC in the 70’s and 80’s; Music Break*; a toast to Richard Donnor, legendary director of The Twilight Zone, Superman: the Movie, The Goonies, and Lethal Weapon, who died this week at 91; a review of my Criterion Hall at this week’s 50% off sale at Barnes and Noble; a trip to the Video Street Video Store**; a review of the Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood novelization by Quentin Tarantino.

...talking about a trip he took to the beach with the church youth group in 1996, and how most of the time was spent not on the sand, but in the cold conference room of the Holiday Inn, praying and reading the bible. Yikes. He should’ve just skipped the preach and gone to the beach.
