Sound-bites from Groucho Marx, Richard Nixon, Monty Python, Shakespeare, the Wizard of Oz, Daffy Duck, vintage radio commercials, and dozens of others sources are spliced into a 20-minute radio show originally aired on Berkeley Liberation Radio. These are 25 Mb files, and will take a while to download. We've also included smaller files offering a sample segment plus the opening minute-plus of the shows.
