headcanon that one day Sam bought a record player for avengers tower so he could listen to Marvin Gaye high quality. But this becomes a problem when Bucky buys Taylor Swift vinyls and wants to use the record player too (Peter introduced Bucky to Taylor and ever since he’s been obsessed, his favorite album is evermore).
It quickly becomes a daily battle between Sam and Bucky over who can get to the record player first at any given time and how long the other gets to use it.
this results in a lot of trash talk, Bucky insults Marvin Gaye (even though he doesn’t mind his music much. or at all. maybe he kinda likes it) and Sam throws shade on Taylor Swift (even though he kinda likes her music)
but since Bucky doesn’t actually know anything about Marvin Gaye he invents random things to throw at Sam, like “you wouldn’t think Marvin was so great if you knew he killed a baby sloth” and Sam is just like “????” (bucky tries, ok)
anyway, this debate lasts for quite a while, until Wanda sends them to see Dr. Raynor about this specific issue, and they agree to share the record player equally
(“marvin still killed a baby sloth though” bucky says when they’re leaving. Dr. raynor makes a note to talk to Bucky about that in his next session)

Hello again, Tumblr! Yeah, it’s been a long time. For those of you that never unfollowed me here, I wanted to let you know what I’ve been up to. To make a long story short, I have brought back my online oldies radio station, KoHoSo Radio 66. It is streaming right now but the official grand reopening will be this Saturday, August 26th at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time. I’ll be doing a two-hour webcast of “Cruisin’ with KoHoSo” to kick things off…and the show will be repeated on Sunday and Monday (times are listed in the video).

This opening show will be dedicated to klappersacks. For those of you that do not know, this great citizen of Tumblr who also ran xmashop passed away a little under a year ago when his car was hit head on by a wreckless driver. He was a big supporter of KoHoSo Radio 66 the first time it was online and it makes me feel very sad he is no longer here to celebrate its return.
