Firesign! Firesign! Firesign!

The 4 or 5 Crazy Guys, AKA Firesign Theatre, have a ton of podcast material available for free on iTunes. These date all the way back to their early days in Southern California radio, and include their classic ads for Jack Poet Volkswagen, and even the ads they did for other sponsirs like Carnation Instant Breakfast.

I've been bugging FST webmaster "Mervyn LeRoy" to add a podcast of the great live radio broadcast from November 2004 by David "Catherwood" Ossman and wife Judith Walcutt, when they hosted the entire 2004 Kaua'i Slack Key Guitar Fest. He said that he's been trying to get the audio from Judith, but since they just lost one of their sons on Mt. Rainier it's not the best time to ask again.
