47:19 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic material from my personal archives.

This episode is part of a sub-project within Tape Land called “Video Phase 2022”. I recently began transferring a ton of old video tapes to digital, and have been posting selections to YouTube. Here, I’ll be releasing the audio tracks of these videos, as well as linking you to the YouTube videos, and The Internet Archive.

Weird University (1986)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzfseA0tUSY

In 1986, “Mad” Mike and Frank Nora “Master of the Airwaves”, not satisfied with just doing their comedy radio show “Anything But Monday”, decide to produce a video series based on a fictional version of their college called “Weird University”. With their new personas “Franco Wolfini” and “Iggy Szalzo”, they investigate and report on interesting students, the dining hall, campus security, a nearby supermarket, and much more… plus, strange happenings on a Weird Halloween. This is the “best of” edit that was made available for mail order (VHS or Beta), though few copies were sold.…

There were three episodes of Weird University. They were shown in the university center. This edit draws from all three episodes, but leaves some stuff out. The Compleat Weird University, coming soon, will include much more.

30:38 – The Biblical soap opera continues, with Laban in hot pursuit of Jacob and his family. Once he catches up, Rachel proves herself to be a clever smuggler, whereupon a treaty establishes a demilitarized zone. Jacob happens upon an encampment of the gods, and wrestles with one of them until dawn. Esau greets Jacob’s party with a force of four hundred men. Dinah is defiled, but her defiler wants to make an honest woman out of her, which requires that he and the other men of his country submit to genital mutilation. Say what??
