119: Kudos for Bridey's Story, YouTube Finds Del, Go Suck an Egg, What's TMB?, Rock and Stone

Send us Fan MailBucks share some of the terrific feedback on Bridey Thelen-Heidel's story We Owned the Night from her upcoming memoir , Bright Eyes. The response was dazzling and we plan to have more author interviews  in the future. Bucks are wishing Bridey the best as she navigates the challenging route to publication.A listener in Switzerland sends a news story saying the Ukrainians are, in fact, using trucks to shoot down drones, much as Del's suggestion in Episode 117. Ahead of the curve once more.Del resorts to counting stars to stump Dave while Dave stumps the starstruck  Del on Everything Everywhere All At Once, a spectacular feast for the senses.Del inadvertently discovers the rabbit hole known as YouTube [here since 2005] and fritters away hours of his life he will never get back. Dave steers him away from TikTok, now a formally-designated addiction. As Del says, "There is no end..."Del is disgusted by partially- frozen eggs he finds in his refrigerator. He eats them anyway. Consider this your Public Safety Announcement for the week.Del longs to invent a new word but settles for a new texting shortcut : TMB. This is particularly appropriate when commenting on the words spilling out of the mouth of  a politician.Dave dig out his pickle ball paddle in search of new body parts to injure. Del sees get-well cards in his future.Science tells us how to skip stones and the Bucks nod the antlers to rockers we've lost recently-Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac, guitarist extrordinaire Jeff Beck, and David Crosby of the Byrds, CSN, and CSNY. Upcoming episodes include sea stories from Cap'n Jim and an interview with members of a French village that has taken in hundreds of Ukrainian refugees.Dave plugs his monthly column in the OLLI-Ringling College newsletter.  His assignment was new year's resolutions so he wrote about artificial intelligence. A stretch but did he pull it off?   Let us know.Give us your thoughts:  [email protected]                          Find Two Old Bucks on Facebook  and YouTubeLeave a Voice message - click HEREWHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?
