37:35 / 34.7 MB -Frank in The Overnightscape Studio in Northern New Jersey, with an announcement about the future of his various radio shows. Here’s a basic overview of what’s going on:

The Rampler with Frank Edward Nora (on WFMU) will continue.

The Overnightscape Underground will continue.

OnsugBox is nearing completion.

The Overnightscape and The Rampler are now ended, and will not continue. However, just about everything that these shows represent is being continued on the WFMU show and in the Underground.

Many thanks to AndyKaufmanTV for creating this awesome video!!

The Rampler is now a regular weekly show on WFMU!

Tonight at 2:00 AM (the early morning of Saturday, June 27, 2009) is the official premiere of my show “The Rampler with Frank Edward Nora” on WFMU.

This comes after a lot of hard work, first doing a number of test shows, and then doing three fill-in shows on the air, over the past few months.

The show is a combination of NYC street recordings, just like the regular Rampler, and also me live in studio – somewhat reminiscent of The Overnightscape (I may even use a MadPlayer!)

The show is going to be on for the next 16 weeks on WFMU’s Summer Schedule, with the last show of the Summer being on October 10. After that, it is quite possible the show will continue on WFMU, but not guaranteed.

HOW TO LISTEN

You can listen over the radio airwaves in the NYC area on 91.1 FM. It is also broadcast on WMFU (90.1 FM) in Mount Hope, upstate New York. And of course, it will be streamed live at WFMU.org.

The interactive playlist will be active, where you can leave comments and chat with everyone. Just go to WFMU.org when the show is on for a link to the playlist.

I will also be experimenting with streaming live video on UStream at this link: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/rampler

The videos will be recorded for viewing anytime.

I also plan on taking phone calls, though probably a little later in the show.

Here is the page for The Rampler on WFMU. Once the show is complete, it will be archived there. I also plan on releasing an archive here on ONSUG.

See you all tonight!!

In the lastest issue of Weird NJ (#32), which just came out, there’s an article by Chris Gethard called “Tank You Veddy Much – On The Trail Of America’s Most InFamous, Possibly Dead Comedian — Andy Kaufman — In New Brunswick” about The Andy Kaufman Press Conference which I hosted back on November 9 of last year, in New Brunswick, NJ. Chris tells the story from his perspective, including his suspicions about me, and his high speed car chase afterwards. There are a lot of great pictures from the event (including 3 of me). The article is awesome and funny – definitely check it out if you can.

Unfortunately, the article is only available in the physical magazine – which I know has limited distribution outside (and even inside) New Jersey. But you can mail order it from the Weird NJ site.

This came as a very pleasant surprise, because I only learned of the existence of the article yesterday! I picked up a couple copies at the Barnes & Noble in Clifton, NJ, on Rt. 3, so I know they have it there.
