2:51:36 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic recording from my collection. It’s a way to help motivate me to release more of my archives.
On this tape, Frank interviews his grandmother, Betty Nora, about family history, at her house in New Brunswick, NJ, on Saturday, March 9, 2002. Frank is 34 and Betty is 92 at the time of the recording. Frank called his grandparents Nanny and Nonno. The story goes, they were meant to be called Nonna and Nonno (Italian for grandmother and grandfather), but as a yound child, Frank pronounced Nonna as “Nanny†and it stuck in the family.
They talk about a wide range of subjects, especially Betty’s memories of growing up in a coal mining town in western Pennsylvania. Also of note on the tape are the origins of Frank’s visit to the town, later in 2002, to meet and talk to Betty’s brother Ralph (that tape upcoming in Tape Land). Also, Frank talks about starting to listen to old Jean Shepherd tapes every day, which would lead, a year later, to the dawn of The Overnightscape.
