Happy New Yeast

Auto-correct keeps messing with me

Welcome to “Happy New Yeast” on the What’s The Matter With Me? Podcast

In this episode, autocorrect keeps messing with me. After almost two years, I’ll get new teeth on Friday. I drove myself to KFJC and did a lot of cooking.

Buck Wild

  • I lost my buck teeth in the Spring of 2021 and, at long last, I’m getting them back on Friday

Live on KFJC

  • I drove to KFJC and hung out with Jack tar during the Blues Collective and also picked up some records to review
  • They had this year’s new years card and a past new years card up in the lobby
  • I got assigned a couple records to review and brought them home, fulfilling the original reason to be a member at kfjc: to get free records

Misadventures In Autocorrect

  • “Happy new yeast,” my phone is always autocorrecting me, when I try to write happy new years. And I’m like “No, man- that makes me sound weird.”

Plastic Tones

Cedell Davis
  • Cedell Davis was a disabled blues man with limited use of his hands

Doin’ drop off and pickup

  • I took the kids to school- Nami was working in San Diego,
  • End of day pickup & took them out to Taco Bell, because they see the ads on TV

Cooking While Disabled Jan 2023

  • Need a TED talk about making PBJ that addresses the importance of spreading the peanut butter and jelly to the edge of the bread
  • Made mojo sauce, its hard for me bc it had some tricky things like using the microplane, blender & a lotta juicing i extended the marinating time to break out the work over 2 days
  • Made soup again, the kale was a bit difficult to strip off the stems but i did it anyway bc it’s good to do things within reason. Part of cooking is prep, and it’s the work

Artist at the Grocer

Hold It Right There

  • The Amazon page holder device– I can read again. It’s called “Bookmark/Weight-Page Holder-Holds Books Open and in Place-Clear-by Superior Essentials” and it was Amazons choice. Using it is easy and I can read much easier without having to grapple with the book.
  • Currently, I’m reading The Year’s Best Sports Writing 2021 and Saxophone Colossus, Aidan Levy’s new Sonny Rollins biography and the page holder is doing exactly what they said it would- a useful product.

At the first What’s The Matter With Me? Podcast Listener Appreciation Party, everyone gets their own booth

Welcome to What’s The Matter With Me? Podcast, “Midwestern Concepts”

Continuing my transition away from the protracted intense pain of Trigeminal Neuralgia that my successful rhizotomy has brought me. In this episode, I explore Midwestern Concepts such as the work of the artist Marc Fischer and holding a listener appreciation party/convention at a hotel ballroom in Chicago. I think the thing is, it’s centrally located, and I’ve never hung out there.

  • Sending huge geographical shout outs to listeners from 32 states in the last 28 days
  • Mega large shout outs to the people who donated to the school fundraiser. the fund rager *angry scream* Thank you for supporting the fundraiser, helping my kids do their part to help pay for unfunded programs at the school. I amalgamated them and created a genderless combination being. It’s unclear if that affected donations one way or another
  • email me via the contact form and tell me exactly what you are thinking and don’t leave anything out

Midwestern Concepts 1 & 2

  • Midwestern concepts #1: Marc Fischer / Public Collectors/ Half Letter Press’ new Protest Grim Reapers book
  • Midwestern concepts #2: What’s The Matter With Me? Podcast listener convention in chicago. *conference sounds* We rent a hotel ballroom. Everyone gets a booth. *ooh* I meet everyone. *aah* Guided meditations, *om* Accessible yoga, *sitar sounds* WTMWM?

  • *orchestra tuning* A theory of the musically sublime at Stanford on friday

  • Lifeline crisis chat suicide prevention hotline (accepts texts): 1-800-273-8255

Very stable genius

  • I can do different things that seem to be helping me have core stability. I can step forward and land more naturally without in-toeing, flex my glutes and tighten my abs, and I can do it with increasing coordination. I can walk faster
  • I went to the kids team photoshoots and I walked up there by myself, I didn’t use my chair. I used my stick and sat on the bleachers while the kids were out on the field with the photographers
  • I walked to the bathroom which was over on the other side of the baseball field
  • The family piled in the car. family vacation time vroom
  • We went to the ranch and had paella and the kids roasted apples in the fire.
  • Koko had ash on her face
  • I want to go to the kfjc staff meeting, and there are 2 main obstacles- 1. long drive & 2. walk from car to the auditorium to the station and back.
  • I went to the nursery and the library and walked around those places- picked up the food lab J. Kenji Lopez-Alt book (a six and a half pound tome)
  • I’m going to walk at the market this weekend
  • carbamazepine side effects: confusion, balance

Gary Cannone Interview Special live and direct, in the fleshh, 100% active and happening. Thank you for tuning in to the What’s The Matter With Me? Podcast, the Godcast, the Dad bodcast. 💪🏼🎅🏼🎅🏼

Gary Cannone is a Los Angeles-based artist who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2013. His work examines being an artist with multiple sclerosis through his absurdist sense of humor. Gary grew up as an Italian-American in Chicago, and he was the drummer in a punk band, so its about that, too.

I had the chance to interview him and we spoke about his work, advocacy, and the experience of an artist with MS. Check it out.
