2:48:24 – Three listener-recorded airchecks from December 1938, recorded off the air from WHBI (Hoyt Brothers Incorporated) in Newark, New Jersey, 1250 on the AM dial. By this time, Father Coughlin’s radio program, at one point a weekly live broadcast on CBS, had been reduced to purchasing airtime on individual stations.
Note that the show art is not the image of the actual Father Charles E. Coughlin, but is rather an AI image generated at freegen.app and subsequently altered and modified by Dave in Kentucky using Paint.

52:28 – Doc Sleaze demonstrates the truth of the old tech adage ‘Garbage in, Garbage Out’ with this broadcast. We ask, is the Anti-Christ near, or is he already here and senile?

Plus, breaking news, B-movies and a strange reminiscence about a lost Dr Who Story. Includes:

4:04:30 – It’s a special edition experiment! Instead of the usual 22 clips, this time we’re doing 70, without the computer voice introducing each clip. Also, the audio is a lo-fi mono, similar to old AM radio, which stimulates the mind differently. I listened to the whole four hours, and it’s quite a trip!

1:13:38 – Continuing the experiment of random Onsug listening! Taken from the complete Onsug archive of nearly 16,000 hours, here are 22 random 3.5 minute clips! Somehow, there’s one repeat clip from last episode, which seems incredibly unlikely, but is still within the realm of possibility. Also, there’s an unbelievable synchronicity, from my most recent episode of The Overnightscape.
