Radio spots
In the early 1990s, five-minute radio spots were all the rage. Remember Jean Shepherd, and Andrei Codrescu? Our NPR affiliate, WUNC-FM, asked me to do a weekly wine spot for them, and I was glad to comply! It was then distributed by NPR to many of its southern affiliates. Take a listen, and remember that these were aimed at the “general” listener, not necessarily sophisticates. Any prices mentioned are also from so many years back… unfortunately!
