Hour of Slack #1244 - Rerun of #509, “PAIN” (1995)
We’re busy, so we’re in reruns. This particular episode, #509 from late 1995, was assembled during a relatively rough week of a rough month of a rough year for your host and prayer partner, Rev. Ivan Stang. It is an unusually PAINFUL Hour of Slack. Imagine that. Nonetheless, cruel and heartless listeners who are not Rev. Stang may find it funny. Some great music helps the poison go down easier. The last half of the episode is collage and ranting by Rev. Susie the Floozy, and a classic sermon by Papa Joe Mama. Both Susie and Papa Joe are experts in REAL pain.

Hour of Slack #1243 - Rerun of #506 - Aug. 1995 Devival with ESO
http://www.subgenius.com/ts/hos_logs/Hour_of_Slack_1243.html
It’s a busy month. So, this is a rerun of excellent Hour of Slack #506, from September 1995. The highlight is a fine recording of the August 5, 1995 SubGenius Devival at Peabody’s in Cleveland, with Einstein’s Secret Orchestra, Rev. Stang, and Sister Melodious Chops. Collages in this pre-LeMur show are by Rev. Susie the Floozy and the mysterious Toe Frophauser. Bulldada master Zoogz Rift, Dr. Bizarro and the Disgustos, and GWAR provide music. (This was recorded just prior to our tour with GWAR.) Prank calls to Christian radio shows are peppered throughout this episode.

Mondo Diablo Episode 238: Stang on Satanism
Praise "Bob!" Here I have for you a wonderful old sermon (the oldies are the best, aren’t they?) from Reverend Ivan Stang of the Church of the SubGenius, given around the time the Ice-T hit "Cop Killer" was in the news for being somehow a NEW theme in rock ‘n’ roll. A "new" theme that proves that what adults have been saying for (literally) millenia is right: Kids These Days are Out of Control and it’s all the fault of that awful "rap/rock and roll/jazz/ragtime/Tinpan Alley/Liszt/minuet/immoral combination of lute and singing" music! And OF COURSE that’s true! It’s always those people who are going out to have a good time who ruin the suffering for the Rest of Us!

Hour of Slack #1241 - Live Jan. 24, 2010 - The Greatest Buzz Possible
http://www.subgenius.com/ts/hos_logs/Hour_of_Slack_1241.html
This episode was broadcast live from WCSB, Cleveland, on Jan. 24, 2010, the 26th anniversary of the first assassination of J. R. "Bob" Dobbs — an event which is never acknowledged during the show, out of respect. A slew of Lemur cuts and some Local Color presage a mottered-up mess in the WCSB studio with Rev. Stang, Princess Wei, and the unusually powerful buzz of Lonesome Cowboy Dave. Everything important is covered, thoroughly. Less significant matters are merely touched upon, or skirted. Complete impunity is exercised across the board, and The Conspiracy is baldly exposed. DON’T TELL ANYBODY.

Phineas Narco, Justin Credible and Empress Zoey drag the show across battlefields and through jungles, ever striving to reach "Bob." Or escape him. The movie "Avatar" is discussed. The other half of the show involves music, collages, and music/collages by Rural War Room, Mark Hosler, LeMur, The Psycho Skeletons, Local Color, frequent caller Bernard, Rev. Wilhelm Stahlhelm, and Rev. Outa Spaceman.
