Episode Details

Re-Imagined Radio pays tribute to Joe Frank, a radio storyteller noted for his husky, insomniac voice and sincere delivery of ideas and stories that were often surrealistic, even absurd. From 1978 to 2018, Frank entertained thousands of listeners with his combinations of monologue, radio drama, and talk radio to tell stories about the human experience. He is credited with 250. We sample from "Jewish Blues" (1978), "Memories" (1990), "Green Cadillac" (1993), "Reality Check" (2013), and "A Life Well Lived" (2013) to showcase his work, early to near the end of his career.
