POP-A-LOOZA: Cereal Infidelity



Each week, the pop culture website Pop-A-Looza shares some posts from my vast 'n' captivating Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do) archives.The latest shared post is my love letter to cold cereal, "Cereal Infidelity."

I do love cereal. I don't have anything cereal-related to add to what I already wrote, so this seems like a good time to publicly express my appreciation to Dan Pavelich for inviting me to participate in Pop-A-Looza. I've been corresponding with Dan for years, initially in connection with playing his band The Bradburys on This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl. We've been virtual pals ever since. Dan's various-artists holiday compilations (the Hi-Fi Christmas Party series and Christmas Without Cancer) remain reliable resources for the annual TIRnRR Christmas shows. His most recent work with The Click Beetles is likewise a fave rave, and we heartily recommend The Click Beetles' 2020 release Pop Fossil.  I also follow Dan's comic strip Just Say Uncle, and I invite you to join me in supporting Dan's efforts on Patreon. And stay tuned to Pop-A-Looza; I am but one of several contributors to the site, and I betcha you'll find something else there that you will dig the utmost. I'm proud to be a part of it. Thanks for havin' me there, Dan!

Hey, all this gratitude has made me hungry. Time for cereal! And time for "Cereal Infidelity," the latest Boppin' Pop-A-Looza.
