Ladies & Gentlemen,
I am so happy to present a long-awaited guest popcast from a long-time P&C supporter, guest singer for The Falsies at the legendary House of Flowers, part-time 80s Historian, full-time lover of fine wines, actual big brother to Dr. Marnie, life-long partner of Madame Sugahblade and co-guardian of Sir Biggie…. I bring you the beloved Lil' Bruder, little brother to music loving popsters all over the world.
Hip Biscuits For the Short Crowd: A musical journey in two parts.
The other day, I was feeling so famboobled after a long day at work that when I got home I went straight to my stack of feel good biscuits and started throwing them on the platter. One after another they lit up this glow worm and I got to thinking, why haven't I made a tape for all of the cool youngsters I know? So I did it. It took a lot of rewinding and making notes to remake the list ala digital, but here it is: Hip Biscuits For the Short Crowd. Or Hot Biscuits For the Bustlin' Youngster In a Mixed Up Tape. Either way, life has a way of speeding the heck up and we need to slow it down sometimes, any which way we can! So take off your socks, light up a candle or twelve, find a buddy or your favorite critter and see where this takes ya. Like my buddies the Space Monkeys say: "Don't be afraid of the dark, and keep your dreams close to your heart. Cuz I've been around and seen people drown in the depths of success."
Welp, here's to that ethereal life preserver.
Big love,
Lil' Bruder

man this is a rockin’ good biscuit list, i tell ya!!!
Lil’ Bruder, what did you put in these biscuits? I’ve been having hot flashes and leg spasms for the last half hour.
Dear Lil’ Bruder,
My favorite part of your popcast was the mini winter wonderland you created with the songs Snowman and Suzy Snowflake back to back. Brilliant! Also, songs 1-5 on part one made me feel like i was on sesame street. Another super score. Thanks for the tunes, hope to have you back again real soon!

Dear Ms. Z and Ms. Z, thems biscuits have been sitting in a tin of love for a long time. When I opened the tin – there was this light and I knew I had to deliver them hot n’ fresh right to P&C! The thanks goes straight to the greats that put those songs together for us. I’ll be back! You ladies keep up the great work!
