That Jim Price was awesome! Too bad the archives don't go back to the '80s, who knows what wonders went down in the pre-internet days that are gone forever.

Austin Rich:

Speaking of lost WFMU airchecks from the past: I wonder if that's something that we could crowdsource something like that? I bet we could uncover a lot of weird stuff from listeners if we put out a call for recordings.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:44pm
chresti:

I think this is the first time I heard ribaldry spoken, before I thought it rhymed with "piebald"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:44pm
Scott67:

Slightly over speed?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:45pm
Krys O.:

A pal of mine has tons of WFMU airchecks.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:46pm
Krys O.:

Intentionally, Scott. :)

Thanks Krys! I always laugh when I hear sped up voices
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:49pm
Krys O.:

I always feel compelled to mess around with industrial films.
Avatar 8:49pm
Mr Fab:

Austin: Boom!

And your idea about collecting pre-internet FMU airchecks is a good one. That'd be cool to have a section on the website dedicated to whatever people can donate.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Scott67:

Feel like I'm in an old Disneyland Exhibit during a power surge!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Austin Rich:

I bet we could create a shared folder somewhere, and let listeners upload files. Then we could periodically collect everything and forward it to some archive section of the website.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
chresti:

suddenly they turned into chickens
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:51pm
Austin Rich:

I'm with you on the Industrial Films, Krys O. Or old dialog from any movie. I just feel like it's waiting to be sampled, or repurposed.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:52pm
Krys O.:

"Where are my kumquats!"
Avatar 8:53pm
Mr Fab:

Krys: Haha! Is it the same actor?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:53pm
Scott67:

I'd rather not talk about it Krys!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:53pm
Krys O.:

This is an earlier AT&T promo for telephone courtesy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:54pm
Scott67:

What is a Telephone?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:54pm
Krys O.:

It's like a gramophone.
