Favoriting February 25, 2023: Checkerboard Radio (3)

I first learned about The Checkerboard Time Radio Show and especially The Cackle Sisters through the 365 days project assuming these were all the recordings we have of the Dezurik Sisters. Recently I found a bunch of complete episodes of Checkerboard Time not only co-featuring other artists, but also some Cackle Sister songs that aren't in the list on WFMU's beware of the Blog linked above.
Being completely in the dark when (late 30s/mid 40s?) or what order they aired, I numbered them at my discretion.

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!


Caroline and Lorraine Dezurik (The Cackle Sisters on Checkerboard Time are Caroline and Mary Jane Dezurik)

@Krys: I put some of my pledge to your show, I usually stick to new shows, but I do know your history here. Statute of limitations vibe, plus I just felt like it? (It's still bothering me that it could have gone to a real new DJ who's insecure about their place)

I came across that link by trying to find anything on the Library of Congress site: loc.gov. Nothing there outside of possible telephone directories with the Dezurik name.
