PriorCaster – The Paunch Stevenson Show (12/11/25)

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is prior_caster_300.jpg

1:20:55PriorCaster, by Bob LeMent of Static Radio and Morning Commute, seeks to document the people who were the pioneers of audio on the internet.

The Paunch Stevenson Show was born from two friends having fun recording silly bits that they dreamed up onto an old boom box. Rob and Greg, two lifelong friends from New Jersey had been doing these things their whole lives, and then they got inspiration.

That inspiration came in the form of a friend and confusion. Who could remember the guys from CHiPs names, let alone their characters, and with the connection to Frank Edward Nora and a love of old television, the Paunch Stevenson show was launched.

In 2005 the world was a different place, technology was not the easy point and click world we have today, but Greg and Rob had a vision, a drive, a reason to spoof everything in their nostalgia filled minds. The 1980’s had been a huge stack of firewood for them and now it was time to burn a bit of that off and the fire pit of choice became the Paunch Stevenson Show.

So after you take in their historic story here, swing by and dive into the 80s and 90s soaked nostalgia of the show that they have been producing for 20 years.

Onsug Radio Shuffle Mode Special (12/8/25)

4:04:30 – It’s a special edition experiment! Instead of the usual 22 clips, this time we’re doing 70, without the computer voice introducing each clip. Also, the audio is a lo-fi mono, similar to old AM radio, which stimulates the mind differently. I listened to the whole four hours, and it’s quite a trip!
