A few months ago, I started referring to AM 1240 WLSC as "The Banana Channel". On Friday, September 12, 2008, we did a soft launch of what I had envisioned.
Too often, folks ask me whatever happened to Harold Dean or Leon Frazier or Claude & Earl? These are just a few of the wacky characters that were a part of my radio show during my many years at WKZQ 101.7 and Wave 104.1 (WYAV).
Well, the answer is...They're Back!
Monday through Friday, starting at 6:00 AM and continuing through 4:00 PM, listeners to AM 1240 WLSC and WLSCRadio.com can relive some of those hilarious moments from days gone by. It was actually fun going through the countless hours of tape and cds and mini-discs to put together the collection of audio goodies that we'll be serving up on the radio. It's really the best of my stuff. (I'll even be spotlighting material from my early days in radio up in North Carolina before I became Banana Jack.
There's a whole lot of stuff that I've saved through the years. I was actually surprised at the number of song parodies that I recorded over the years. There's also bogus commercials and celebrity impersonations. I've done my fair share of celebrity interviews through the years as well. It's all going to be included.
Archiving the material and preparing it for broadcast is an on going process. I've only scratched the surface, but if you ever wondered why I was calling our little radio station, "The Banana Channel", tune in and find out.
Those classic episodes of Leave it to Beaver are coming. Mr. Know-It-All, David Del Rancho, Mr. Roberts and even more of those wacky songs are on the way.
Now, for those who'd worry that I'm shaking things up at AM 1240, I assure you that we're still committed to being a full service station for Loris. We're simply building on the foundation of WLSC and expanding the audience. Thanks to the world wide web, we're only limited by our imagination and creativity.
Thanks to everyone for checking out "that little station in Loris."
You won't believe what we're up to next. It's BIG!
Stay tuned!
