(47:03) – Welcome to The Frank Nora Time Machine (Hosted by Jimbo)

Get ready to hear some of the best all-time bits of Frank Edward Nora. Some of the bits here last seconds, some a few minutes… but none of them last 263 days – (roughly the time it would take someone to listen to every Frank Nora story.)

Frank has fascinating stories, commutes and works in a great city, reviews malls, odd snacks and drinks. Jimbo adds his own two cents in unusual ways, and together, they make this series one of the most unique you have ever heard.

• Introduction, from The Overnightscape #41 (12/23/03): Christmas greed, Smelly Clark’s greed, fireworks with Mike, Jimbo’s fireworks, the flying insect in the Glenfiddich, • from The Overnightscape #42 (12/30/03):  The Audio Field Trip (the making of Frank’s part in Dave Kopperman’s movie: “The Unflappable Moe Green”), • from The Overnightscape #43 (1/11/04):  New York State, Washington State, independently wealthy • from The Overnightscape #44 (1/19/04) : dreaming about work, dreaming about naked Frank photos, Nyquil, Vic’s hot soup, Roger Zelazny’s Amber, meditation labyrinths, Sweet Esther Wisconsin, patching out

3:58:08 – Take a deep dive into The Overnightscape Underground (Onsug) Archive…

Onsug is a massive collection of audio – currently over 6,400 tracks, totaling over 263 days (over 8.5 months) of audio. But what’s in the archive? What does it sound like?

I chopped each audio track into 5-minute clips, resulting in over 75,000 of these segments. By playing them in random order, we can deeply explore what’s inside the archive, to get an idea of what it contains.

The Night Pool is just like drifting though all these random thoughts and ideas, soundscapes and songs, conversations and rants… no hosting, no context… just a pleasant swim though the humble weirdness of Onsug…

This is the final episode of “season 1” of The Night Pool. Let me know if you’d be interested in hearing more.
