A Lazy Afternoon

Tichnor Brothers Collection
/
Boston Public Library

The goal of the show today is to kick back and take things easy with some music and an episode of Stan Freberg, but Jake's running late and Sydney's heart is set on a stirring performance.

Brother of Maclane, Jake is a cultural hobbyist and curator of pre-1960s publications, radio and various ephemera. His collection of outdated media formats takes up a considerable amount of space and is frankly beginning to become a nuisance. A man can only own so many reel-to-reel machines before he needs to look into a storage locker.
A communications student here at Idaho State University, Maclane has had a lifelong interest in radio. From listening to old time radio of decades past, to the modern commercial sports talk, country, or top 40 stations, the small town community stations, and now getting involved in public radio, Mac knows there's plenty to appreciate and learn about.
