1:02:25 – 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.

Another episode from my college radio show, Anything But Monday, with co-host Mad Mike. This tape has the first and last hour of a show we did from 2 AM to 8 AM on Friday, February 19, 1988. The middle part of the show has already been released as “Tape Land 31 – Anything But Monday (2/19/88)”.

It’s interesting to hear the difference between the first and last hour… at the beginning we had a lot of energy, but toward the end, we are totally exhausted and not in the mood to be broadcasting.

Notes: (2AM-3AM)  Good morning, destruction, 2:15 AM, student rally, Mike’s car, Reagan rap, playing our carts, exercise, evil, PIST (Popular Insurrectionist Student Troop), Mike’s music, canine companion PSA, TV Tunes, Captain Kangaroo, Little Rascals, cocaine… (7AM-8AM) “University” backwards, Tibetan yogi monks, ABM Magazine #8, interdimensional travel, karma, Velcro, Compact Discs, lasers, evolution, armpits, time travel, Wayne Comic Book Convention, International Student PSA, rebellion on campus, contrivances in nature…

39:59 – 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 tape that I estimate to be from 1984, which features myself, my brother John, and our friend Chris on Side 1, doing a variety of features. The audio quality is horrible. Side 2 is just me, and the sound is a little better.

Side 1: A “choose your own adventure” style story called The Mysterious Journey (which mostly involves getting killed by gargoyles and meteors), TI-99/4A programs, The NorNorFed Show, Brother Theodore, TV commercial parodies, Name That Fart.

Side 2: Wolf Adventure (another “choose your own adventure” story), slow talking Fred, hypnosis?
