1:21:16 – 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 begins 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.

Beublin A. Richardson – Season 1 (1991)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQjeqZPmMq8

Original video series about an eccentric entertainment producer named Beublin. A. Richardson who becomes obsessed with a stone egg. Filmed in Somerset County, NJ, in 1991. Written and directed by Frank Edward Nora. More info at onsug.com

Beublin A. Richardson has had a complex existence in The Onsug. I continued the series in audio during the Bluffcosm era (2000-2002). In 2005, I played the audio version of all the episodes on weekends when The Overnightscape was a daily show, in a feature called Weekend Showcase. The response to this was very negative from my listeners, which led, down the road, to my creating The Overnightscape Underground as a place for alternative audio that wouldn’t “interfere” with the main show. This then led to The Onsug of today.

The edit used in the video has never been released before. It separates the content into 13 episodes, with some silence in-between. It also has a brief audio clip of me as a baby over the title screen. There is also an end credits sequence.

It’s been a long time since there’s been any new Beublin material, but Peter and I talk about it whenever we get together, so who knows, Beublin may continue someday.

41:56 â€“ PriorCaster, by Bob LeMent of Static Radio and Morning Commute, seeks to document the people who were the pioneers of audio on the internet.

C Peter Clough started in audio media, via an 8-track and cassette tape sneaker-net operation back in the days of zines and no internet.

His professional experience took him to radio and then onto the internet with his audio creations.  Life got in the way and he needed to earn a living, but was lucky enough to land jobs in the earliest online marketing gigs of the day.

19:09 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic material from my personal archives.

“Mad” Mike and Frank Nora “Master of the Airwaves reunite for an ill-fated attempt to revive their college radio show, Anything But Monday.

Notes: The return of Anything But Monday, start the show off with a bang, Roger Rabbit laserdisc, hamster power, ducks are mammals, Classic ABM – Santa Claus and Jack the Ripper, Sony MiniDisc, Realistic mixing board, On Today’s Program, Whitewater, Bill Clinton, water-based scandals, the ancient gods, a fun dictator, edicts, Tonya Harding and Japanese wrestling, first segment over, Segment 2, big star, Frank’s wearing a soiled Beavis & Butthead T-shirt, brainwashing, mental powers, Random Personalities – Bruce Springsteen and Barney Rubble, Dead Body of the Day – John Candy, Donkey Kong, The United States of America, Ross Perot, imaginary numbers, Quick Queries, we’ve reached the end.

Behind the scenes: This was our first ABM recording since 1990 (though we did record a writing session in 1993). We recorded after hours at a chiropractic office Mike was working at in the Clifton, NJ area. I was living at my apartment in Iselin, NJ, and I drove up with a bunch of equipment to record the show. The show didn’t go well. We were very rusty and unprepared, and we didn’t record very much. On the drive home, I was pulled over by the police, and they saw the equipment in the back of my Jeep. They said they had received reports of thefts in the area and accused me of stealing the equipment. Somehow they let me go, and when I got home I called Mike to let him know what happened, but I must have woken him up, so we wound up having a fight. This soured things, and we didn’t try and revive the show again till 1997. (I never heard back from the police.)
