Description from brianjudeshow.blogspot.com: A double-reference to the great and wonderful “Weird Al” Yankovic! In this episode I discuss the mysterious “27″ phenomenon associated with “Weird Al,” as well as my family’s three-day trip to Virginia last week. I also announce officially that I am writing a screenplay based on the life of Morris E. Goodman, a.k.a. “The Miracle Man,” (as seen in “The Secret”), and describe my meeting with him, which was one of the catalysts for my trip. I also remark how things are ironically happening about an hour earlier on this, the day before Daylight Savings Time begins. Once again, special thanks to Frank Nora of The Overnightscape Underground at http://onsug.com, and Wayne from Spare Time Radio for his encouragement.

To celebrate the 7th Anniversary of The Overnightscape, I have launched a new website: FrankNora.com

On this site, you can listen to my entire radio archive in a convenient, web-based player – all of The Overnightscape, The Rampler, The Overnightscape Underground, and a whole lot more! There’s never been an easier way to listen to the archive – which currently stands at 1,865 tracks with 1,618 hours of audio (67.4 days).

—————————————————————————

I came up with the idea for The Overnightscape on Thursday, March 13, 2003. I was on my way home from work in NYC, riding the PATH train back to NJ. Here’s exactly what I wrote on my Palm Pilot:

3/13/03 6:54 pm

non-meta half-hour talk show, just me

3/13/03 7:03 pm

the overnightscape
nightscans

I went home, set up my recording system, and started recording the show at around 9:55 PM – less than 3 hours after I wrote down my idea for the show and its name (wow, just think, it could have been called Nightscans…) What I recorded was The Overnightscape Beta #1 – the first of two test shows I did before releasing the first official episode two weeks later.

Hear these and all the rest on FrankNora.com!

—————————————————————————

After a bit of chaos in the past few years, The Overnightscape has evolved into The Overnightscape Underground – still essentially the same, but with a slightly different configuration.

It’s been 7 years, and the pleasantly insane rambling is still going strong – and getting more insane all the time!!!

Enjoy the archive!
