WKRP in Cincinnati "Airchecks"

[Theater of My Mind]

I wasn't quite sure which board to post this on. It's TV-related, but these aired on WFMU radio so I'm putting it here.

Jon Nelson of WFMU and KBOO (who I don't know personally) has put together a couple of WKRP "airchecks" with Dr Johnny Fever and Venus Flytrap using clips from the TV show and editing in the full songs, plus commercials and Les Nessman with the news. This is a fun listen!

These are great. But imagine going further. Use AI to scrub out the laugh track sounds. Then convert both audio files to mono, run them through some Max twins, put that output through a lowpass, and -- as the final touch -- layer on a feather-soft amount of "blank frequency" AM dial noise from a real receiver in a non-noisy location.

Any volunteers?

I listened to Johnny Fever. Excellent.

I would, but I don't have any Max twins.

I can provide the "blank frequency" noise, though, as I have a "quiet" radio.
