Jim and Frank PodCast #23 - Episode 23: Maple Syrup and Claude Gummonds Together Again After 30 Long Years | It all started with a rake. It'll end with a shovel. That ole shovel will throw dirt on my coffin, when they lay my tired ole body to rest. That ole rake means a lot to me. I still have it. Got it hanging in my tour bus. It's a reminder. Don't get above your raising, momma used to say to me. That ole rake's just about worn to nothing. Paint's come off its handle, and its teeth ain't much to brag about. But if it wasn't for that ole rake, I wouldn't be here right now, telling my story. And you wouldn't be here to want to hear it. | 6/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Jim and Frank PodCast #14: Ruth Verite | The concept was simple. We gave our adorable "swinging senior," Ruth Belsen, a Tascam DR 07 portable digital recorder. After hours of patient explanation, we felt she had a reasonably good idea how to work the darned thing. We sent her out into the world, to create an audio portrait of her daily life. | 6/7/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Jim and Frank PodCast #13: Gershen Verne: Cinema Legend, Spokesmodel. | First, we feature a hidden audio jewel: out-takes from a circa 1975 commercial overdub session, featuring the non-redoubtable genius of American mass media...GERSHON VERNE!!!Verne, known for film classics such as Citizen Quail (1941) and The Terrific Thurmistons ('42), plus the film noir gems The Dame From Shame-High ('48) and Touch of Hunger ('58), had fallen on hard times--much like us all today!--by the 1970s. Reduced to doing novelty children's recordings and TV-radio commercials, the understandably irate Verne never hesitated to show his bark and bite to trembling clients. It's comedy improv at it's best! | 5/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
