47:19 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic material from my personal archives.
This episode is part of a sub-project within Tape Land called “Video Phase 2022”. I recently began transferring a ton of old video tapes to digital, and have been posting selections to YouTube. Here, I’ll be releasing the audio tracks of these videos, as well as linking you to the YouTube videos, and The Internet Archive.
Weird University (1986)

In 1986, “Mad” Mike and Frank Nora “Master of the Airwaves”, not satisfied with just doing their comedy radio show “Anything But Monday”, decide to produce a video series based on a fictional version of their college called “Weird University”. With their new personas “Franco Wolfini” and “Iggy Szalzo”, they investigate and report on interesting students, the dining hall, campus security, a nearby supermarket, and much more… plus, strange happenings on a Weird Halloween. This is the “best of” edit that was made available for mail order (VHS or Beta), though few copies were sold.…
There were three episodes of Weird University. They were shown in the university center. This edit draws from all three episodes, but leaves some stuff out. The Compleat Weird University, coming soon, will include much more.
