THE WEATHERMAN'S PET TOAD AWARD In 1967 David Wills' (aka The Weatherman) pet toad was chosen as the winner in a contest put on by the Martinez, CA Parks and Rec Department. Back then David named all of his toads after grades of gasoline, and his winning toad's actual name was "Super Plumper."

Over The Edge “Radio Music / No Soul” Featuring two hours of Dadabots “No Soul”, which was scrubbed from the internet years ago once its corporate sponsors began to fear the potential copyright liabilities of hosting AI generated content. It’s an inverted world: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/k...

WE'RE SHIPPING AS FAST AS WE CAN! But.....our mail order person is having a hell of a year, and due to her having an unexpected family emergency, about half of you who bought the shirt will need to wait an extra week before the rest of these go out.

HANDS OFF - NATIONAL DAY OF ACTION Saturday, April 5, 2025 Perhaps we can pause our doom scrolling here on social media and get together with some actual real people in actual real life and make some actual real noise about what is going on right now... handsoff2025.com

OVER THE EDGE: “Wendy Carlos” Her most radical and enduring albums are the ones that feature her own compositions. Without disrespecting her refusal to submit to modern streaming platforms, we also shouldn’t wait (her originals begin in the show’s second hour) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/k...

STOMACH NOISES UPDATE! To make up for the fact that our next post will probably be another political one, we've got the latest Weatherman Stomach Noises for you! This time it's truly epic, courtesy of some red sauce he made that was very heavy on the garlic and onions.
