Richard Simmons was as kind and caring a human being as you will ever meet. Easily one of the greatest guests you could have on any show, whether it was The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson or our little radio program. He literally worked his butt off in the service of...
I had a nice chat with Lisa last night and I'm happy to pass on the good news of Bob's procedure and status! Actually, I heard the news from Bob himself, as she played a short voice recording. In essence, Bob said; The procedure went very well... I'm resting...
Lisa and I are in the air as I write this. On an Alaska flight to Seattle from Los Angeles, after spending this week with Keith and Leanne and our granddaughters, Hazel and Georgia. I’m glad I listened to Joe’s advice and shared what’s going on with my health to our...
If you’ve heard the latest Podcast episode, you know I’m taking a medical leave for a few months for health reasons. I’ve had my diagnosis, chemo and radiation, recovery, and surgery prep over the last 4 months. We didn’t talk about it on the show. It gave me something fun and normal to do with my friends
Greetings from Vermont. Writing you a short blog tonight instead of our Bob and Zip Show podcast. We will miss our Wednesday episode, returning on Friday. Lisa and I just watched a movie on Netflix. Which is a bit unusual these days, as we typically binge watch...

People ask me if I’m watching the Impeachment. I say “No, why would I watch any program where I already know the ending?” Why would anyone? Have you ever heard of Kabuki Theater? The definition: “Kabuki is a form of classical theater in Japan known for its elaborate…
“Trust, but verify” is a Russian proverb. I never knew that. I thought it was a Ronald Reagan quote. President Reagan used it on multiple occasions in the context of nuclear disarmament. Played well for the home crowd, but it was really a message to Russia that he…
Lisa and I just binge watched a new Netflix show called “Dead to Me”. I won’t reveal any spoilers, but I can say that it’s unlike any other dark drama or comedy ever made. The creator calls it a “Traumedy”.
I’m not naturally talented. If you ask me why I had a somewhat successful career, I would have to say it’s because I went out of my way to surround myself with people who were better than me. I got lucky, in that a higher power or dumb luck kept sending them my way….
