Sorry!

Golf, Booze & Guns: Inside Boomer Paradise The Bubble (Full Film)

The Bubble examines often-surreal senior citizen life within The Villages, America’s largest retirement community. Leisurely retired life beneath the year-round Floridian sunshine however, is not perhaps as idyllic, or as welcomed, as viewers may imagine.

The Bubble intimately examines the exclusive retirement experiences, beliefs and mindsets of six memorable Villages residents; Toni and Roger, Jeanie and John, Terry and Toni. Interweaving these satisfied retiree existences with the anxieties of several residents from surrounding counties, the documentary reveals how those beyond the community’s sealed gateways are being profoundly displaced by The Villages’ endless desire for land, water, and regional control.



This VICE documentary kinda freaked me out, so I thought I'd share.

FYI, it's about 2 hours 16 minutes long.

31 years ago, I Produced this public access show in Pasadena CA...

...on the PCAC (Pasadena Community Access Corporation) TV channel.

The show was called "Subterranean Sounds," and this particular episode featured a band called Christy McCool, fronted by lead vocalist Thomas Tree.

The video was just posted to YouTube today (9/27/22) by the band's bassist, Neil McAnally.

Which is great because I have the beta video format master tapes, but no way to play them.

I had also recorded a full album demo of the band which they used to get a record deal on a label called Dream Records.

Dream released the exact same record, but with the rough edges removed, which I think was unfortunate.

I have no idea what happened to the band after they played on my TV show and their record came out.
