Here's the Tower

Sometimes a quiet morning commute turns out to be anything but ordinary. On November 12, 2016, a shocking incident occurred as passengers were disembarking from their Pleasant Valley bus.

Here’s the Tower has obtained an exclusive excerpt from law enforcement’s controversial interrogation tape of suspect Frank Davidson. Decide for yourself: was Davidson coerced as he confessed to a heinous microaggression?

In the craziness of the app gold rush a few years ago, you might have missed this: some bizdev bros in the Valley came up with a totally cool and fun way to proactively plan your own funeral.

Just download their simple app and with a few quick taps, you can be on your way to the perfect funeral.

Build your perfect playlist, choose your inspirational readings, fill in a few anecdotes for your survivors to tell, and you’ll be remembered in no time.

So whenever you finally succumb to the sweet embrace of death, you can be sure you’ll be memorialized with the super sad, locally sourced, artisanal funeral you’ve always dreamed of.

In addition to the feet and hands you can use to stomp and clap along with this little piece of music I wrote on Sunday, this song also requires three more hands to play the piano.

Now listen, folks. Full disclosure: I do not have three hands. Most people don’t, if only because of the outrageous number of fingers that would entail. It’s all studio magic that makes this song possible.

All this stomping, clapping, ivory ticking, and tambourine playing was recorded at Stockholm’s Color Farm studios.

The comforting voice of host Leonard Davidson welcomes you back to “Matters of the Evening.” This call-in program lets listeners discuss all manner of things related to the time between day and night.

A dedicated listener from Schaumburg expresses his enthusiasm for evenings and some of what he likes most about them.

This week’s episode was produced in Stockholm at the studios of the Color Farm.

Perhaps it’s no secret that the rhythms and melodies in a lot of television theme songs are based on the names of the shows. If you’re not one of the people who sings along with instrumental theme songs, then I presume you’ve never watched Mad Men.

It’s easy to learn the words so come on, now, and sing along with nine of my favorite television theme songs. These are not my favorite shows, they’re just some of my favorite themes to sing along with. They are:

ABC News
Little House on the Prairie
Magnum, P.I.
Late Night with Conan O’Brien
