1:07:19 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I will be presenting the audio of a cassette tape from my collection. It’s a way to help motivate me to digitize more of my archives.

Here’s a full episode of my college radio show with Mad Mike, Anything But Monday. It was a fill-in show, from 9 to 11 AM on Thursday, October 15, 1987. I had transferred to NYU at this point, and I had to take the last train to NJ the night before to be there for the show. Like a lot of other ABM tapes, some bits and pieces from this recording have been heard on Onsug before, but the entire show is being heard here for the first time since it aired nearly 30 years ago.

The word of the day is “coolant”.
