For
once, Hour of Slack offers a news scoop. It turns out that in 2002, the son of
Stang (now a director in Hollywood) was employed by Richard Heene, father of
the kid known as Balloon Boy. This live show (featuring guest cowpoke Lonesome
Cowboy Dave) is a look into the minds, such as they are, of the Heenes, with
rather revealing recordings of their 911 calls, testimony about them by young
Stang and another former employee of the Heenes, and numerous poems by the
writers of alt.slack that were composed during the hoax-news event. We also
delve into kookdom in general and the relationships of various kooks with the
mass media. A big song by Little Fyodor caps the show.

We
return to Starwood Festival with Rev. Stang's sermon to the pagans, an
interview from Right Where You Are Sitting Now about Starwood, and several bits
of location recordings. Little Fyodor and Babushka contribute a song from their
new album, and the show is generally punctuated with collages by LeMur and
others. Puzzling Evidence is represented. Our frequent caller Bernard is again
featured, and we close with the late Prof. Chas Smith's classic "Jaguar
Night," performed at Starwood by Witch Disco (the descendant of Chas
Smith's band, Einstein's Secret Orchestra).

First of two shows centered around the 2009 Starwood festival, utilizing Stang's sermon to the pagans, clips from an episode of Right Where You Are Sitting Now with Stang guesting, Radio Synesthesia from WCSB Cleveland, and location recordings of various Starwood events. Collages by The Great LeMur, The Large and signal2noise, and new songs by Little Fyodor and The Attery Squash help immeasurably in muddying the spiritual waters. Bernard continues to leave important messages on The SubGenius Foundation answer machine. |

Last summer, Rev. Ivan Stang was interviewed by the
British radio show RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE SITTING NOW. The main subject was
Stang's old book about extremists of all flavors, HIGH WEIRDNESS BY MAIL. We
intercut some of that show with all manner of miscellaneous kook-related music,
and audio samples from the actual kooks themselves. Also: New songs from Little
Fyodor, The 180 Gs and Ricardo Autobahn.
