1:14:30 – Continuing the experiment of random Onsug listening! I decided to return to the original name, “Onsug Radio Shuffle Mode”, with “The Onsug Saloon” as a subtitle. Once again, we listen randomly to 22 209-second clips from the entire archive. This one I had to record 3 times, since I just got a new computer and everything’s a bit off-kilter. But I am very happy with how it turned out.
