Hour of Slack #1668 – Dobsonflies Vs. Dave Men (1996)

It’s a good time for reruns, and this is one of our favorites, from the days when Hour of Slack merged with Chas Smith’s ESO Swamp Radio on WCSB. Lonesome Cowboy Dave is razzed and tortured by Stang (and defended by Wei) while Chas plays his ass off on several synthesizers. (Two songs spontaneously generate themselves.) This episode is particularly skewed towards paleontology and paleoanthropology, because Stang and Wei had visited the Cleveland Natural History Museum earlier in the day. The museum actually did display the jawbone of a Yeti, incidentally, and the Dobsonfly is a real insect.
