Episode 015 - Unnamed Comedy Show 2/6/87 by Mark

OK—so I’ve put the Keith and Bill shows out of order, but in my defense, I don’t think there’s a strict continuity going on here.
 
Larry attempts to keep the show on the rails, and Andy Schrum aka Andrew Danger stops by to cover the pineapple conspiracy. Andy was another member of the Karl Herman repertory company. Bologna rinds, fog, Jesus Jones, underwater bowling, and Wham breaking up are the topics at hand.
 
Enjoy!

Episode 014 - Unnamed Comedy Show 2/13/87 Part 2 by Mark

If you’ve gotten this far, I don’t think there’s much more I can say about this radio show from the 1980’s. Keith and Bill continue their hijinks, including a discordant multiple alma mater performance.  Larry is still in the peanut gallery, and Lisa Quoresimo is now in the mix.  Lisa, or “Q”, also participated in the Karl Herman saga.
 
Enjoy!

Episode 013 - Unnamed Comedy Show 2/13/87 Part 1 by Mark

After a LOOONG hiatus (last posted in 2011), I’m returning to this podcast.  I ran out of material featuring me, and reached out to some old my old college friends for their tapes. Converting them to MP3s happened a while ago, but I’m just getting to packaging them up now.
 
As a reminder—these are segments from radio shows produced (a loose term) at WSAJ, Grove City College, Grove City, PA back in the mid-80’s.  You can check out the previous episodes for “Karl Herman in the Shower” and “Go to Bed with Mark and Kenn” (there’s a teaser if I ever heard one).
 
We’re restarting things with Keith Parrish and Bill Koch—GCC’s own comedy team, known for their hilarious “Majorca” routine (ask them about it if you have an hour to kill).  The “Unnamed Comedy Show” you are about to hear has plenty of non-sequitours, inside jokes, and dead air.  Larry Bowald (we will get to him later) is the special guest star.  Perhaps they shouldn’t have broadcast their planning meeting?
 
Enjoy!

Episode 010 - Karl Herman in the Shower Part 10 by Mark

The finale of Karl Herman in the Shower is quite the spectacular--an extra long tribute show, a newsbreak, and a news program, played in 3 sections over the course of 30 minutes during Chaz's show. I don't want to say too much and spoil the multiple surprises, but let's say this is a turning point, involves a virtual line, and the Gold Standard.
