Strap yourself into the sticky, blistered vinyl seat of a rickety, rusty roller coaster and get ready for a nightmarish journey through an endless sleazy midway of freaks, geeks, misfits, perverts, and grifters as Evil Susie, acting as my booking agent, shepherds me through a multitude of questionable job opportunities working for a very carnal carnival! The title is cribbed from the sprightly Jehova Hates Phred song "Carnal Carnival," and it's bolstered with selections from The Jackie Papers, Bill Hicks, Crispin Glover, Joe Frank, Firesign Theatre, Tin Huey, Nash the Slash, Wendy O. Williams & The Plasmatics...and there's even a special geeking demonstration by Joe Coleman actually biting the heads off of a couple mice! I mixed it with chunks from MULTIPLE MANIACS (the Cavalcade of Perversion!), the obscure comedy hippies Conceptionland, carny sequences from sleaze classics CARNY GIRLS, FREAKS, and SATAN IN HIGH HEELS, and poured on some gloppy goops of some sick & lame kids LPs of PINOCCHIO and MisteRogers and some xtian thing called GINGERBROOK FARE [sic]. Goddamn, but this thing is packed with skeevy sleaze!

More Comedy

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
