This episode of Norm Nathan’s Vault of Silliness has a little something for everyone. It hails from October 16th, 1996.
Norm is in for Bob Raliegh for the Columbus Day holiday.
I’m calling this episode: Radio Digressions
We begin with a Dumb Birthday Game.
The Players:
I'm on the phone and opening mail
Mike Epstein producing and in studio
Jack Harte
We were having so much fun talking before we finish the player introductions:
Norm talks about trepidation in having to read bra commercials.
He tells a great story about growing up in Everett.
I ask an important question.
And THEN it’s back to the other players:
Jack in Ottawa
Justin in Roslindale
Bdays:
Angela Lansbury
Tim Robbins – and we go off on a Tony Robbins tangent
Suzanne Somers
Jack and Tony sing the Three’s Company theme!
David Zucker
Barry Corbin
Norm’s grandfather makes an appearance sipping some ‘gluz tai.’
Mike wants to take a break to air some bladder control commercials (which we don’t have here)
And Norm teases the The Gary Lapierre Show?
We then take a tertiary road and enjoy some commercials.
I love hearing old commercials. I hope you do too because we have a wagon load of ‘em.
They come to us from WSRS and the voice you hear between them as well as with the weather forecast is Moneen Daly.
