20:09 – In a special edition of ‘Sleaze Talk’, noted festive experts Ash Dieback and Diane Butz investigate the phenomena of so called ‘Rogue Santas’ – the fakes who can ruin kiddies’ Christmases, scarring them for life. From shopping malls to department stores to rip-off Christmas theme parks, these low life Santa impersonators are a blight on our seasonal cheer.

Pocket Onsug Radio is a 256GB flash drive containing the entire Onsug Radio audio archive in “lo-fi” audio (complete up to October 2024), plus extras, in a limited edition of 11 copies.
The idea is to get some backup copies of the archive out there. We use the Internet Archive as our main archive copy, and since it’s been having difficulties recently, I wanted to make this alternate copy.
So, if you’d like to help out by keeping a copy in your possession, and are open to the possibility of making additional copies for others (additional cover stickers will be included), please request a copy by emailing my at frank@theovernightscape.com
To browse the files in Pocket Onsug Radio without a copy, you can use this Virtual Volumes View (VVV) catalog:

Ash Dieback and Diane Butz appear via NotebookLM, a Google utility that analyses sources in a variety of formats and produces digests, reports and an AI generated audio discussion between two AI characters.
