Street interviews, listener call-ins, vinyl gluttery, sporadic normalcy, original floperas and fiktion, blatant talking over songs, politix, tenderness, and a vague undercurrent of angst. Right up your alley!

Hello Pigeonnaires. Glad you're here. Remember to go back to Part I if you never heard it. I will eventually connect them on the archives.

@Clay: Well, I liked the calls and songs on the last one too...maybe you could link Parts I and II on a tape for "emergencies", and air an uninterrupted version then and add it to the Archives.

Recorded on micro-cassette, dumped to cassette, then digitized with plenty of analog inserts. Very time-consuming, Dale. Wish I could hire voice talents so I didn't have to voice everything. More than that ... wish I could write! I'm fairly lame if you haven't noticed.

Man, I'm only jumping on here to ask who is that retard on here last night with like a Chicken Pot Pie with Eyes for an avatar? He was really being a jerk and claiming I was hogging the convo. on here but I wasn't at all. Just having a grand time on Mary Wing's show! Anybody know who that troll is? What a moron. anyway, that's all I wanted to say for now. That plank. This is a democratic process, folks, not a hipster clubhouse for the terminally full of themselves.

Atlantic was real close to my hometown, Ken. You probably drove through it on Highway 71 going back to Fort Dodge. I went to college at Iowa Central in Fort Dodge. The broadcasting program!

Does anyone really (unironically) not know?: People involved in Jazz were smoking marijuana decades & decades before Rock'n'Roll existed (hence songs like 'Funny Reefer Man' by Cab Calloway in the 30's & such)
- hence term 'Jazz Cigarettes'. (Paul McCartney has used this term more than once.)

We know. It's just a funny old term.
