This episode of Norm Nathan’s Vault of Silliness is jam packed with a variety of subjects, calls, stories and quick clips.
After listening a few times and taking lengthy notes I’ve settled on the following title: Radio Talk about Radio
The dates are a bit scattered. August 1st, 7th, 13th and 14th from 1994 and then March 3rd and April 4th 1995. But don’t quote me on that.
Three producers cover this one with Adam Wolf, Brian McKinley and later, Mike Epstein.
I will do my best to give you a semi-brief summation.
The callers with names:
Ruth Clennot
Rick
TWO great calls from Chauncy!
Glenn from Brighton with erroneous info and a bad Amish joke
Bob with some radio memories
Dorothy from Haskell, NJ
Mike with more radio memories and Norm gives broadcasting advice
A fired-up Fred
Paul from Malden discussing Norm’s many talents
The excited Kristin in Dorchester
Dora and Norm talk about town government
Pat from Riverdale, GA and her draining sinuses
John in NH who used to work for the old Boston Post
And then there’s a handful of callers where we don’t hear their name mentioned who add even more fun to this extravaganza.
We have guest stars!
Tom Cuddy
Ed Mullen
Rick Kassiotis
And Darrell Gould!
PLUS three Jack Harte traffic reports with work crews a-plenty!
Norm talks about having to do some stand-up comedy at an upcoming benefit being held at the Comedy Connection.
He then lists the dazzling array of other performers that will join him.
We get some unabashed commentary from Norm on when he met Abbie Hoffman.
I’ll wrap it up with the commercials that are included:
STP Fuel Injector Cleaner
A VERY dry WBZ Sports Saturday promo touting its debut
IDS Financial Services
And a very funny commercial for Boston Gas
