A rooster crows, a chicken clucks, a duck quacks, a crowd gathers. Not sounds one normally expects to hear on the radio. But when the creator of that radio show is Joe Bev, anything is possible!

Bevilacqua's latest one-hour radio play is also his 58th new "Camp Waterlogg" installment in just over a year. The break neck pace at which Bev is currently working is the product of what he calls "stepping on a lightning bolt and taking a ride. I feel as if I've advanced light-years in just one."

In two week's The Comedy-O-Rama Hour will celebrate its 60th new show on Cult Radio A-Go-Go! in nearly as many weeks. "It took me four years to do 60 hours of radio theater for Sirius-XM," admits Bev.

The Baby of the Woods Rides the Draft Horses!

On this Saturday's hour of audio madness, which mixes real life and fiction, Bevilacqua takes listeners to a Colombian restaurant in Elizabeth, NJ and The Draft Horse Show in Accord, NY--writing, producing, directing and voicing most of the hour's characters himself.

Bev plays Sgt. Lefty, Ellis da Boatkeeper, Lil Andy, Sal Pilvers, Ranger Joe, and other characters, including two new arrivals to "Camp Waterlogg": Cary Gooper and Gary Cant, homages to Gary Cooper and Cary Grant.

Bev's wife and co-creator Lorie Kellogg voices Olive, Elise, Mrs. Terwilliger, Lkie, Baby of the Woods, Ranger Lorie, and others. Kenny Savoy is heard as Stinky Peter and Luigi, and Jim Folly is Marcello.

Also featured on the hour will be the 6th installment of the first new "Lum and Abner" comedy since 1954, written and performed by Donnie Pitchford, who also draws the "Lum and Abner" comic strip appearing at http://firstarkansasnews.net in a "Sunday strip" format with a new installment each Sunday.

The Comedy-O-Rama Hour is just one of four weekly hours produced, directed, written and voiced by Joe Bevilacqua, who is the recipient of the 2013 Kean University Distinguished Alumni Award.

The May 11th Joe Bev 3-Hour Block includes:
Comedy-O-Rama #58: "Sun, Rain & The Draft Horse Show"
Jazz-O-Rama #41: "Battle of the Drums 1: Papa Jo Jones vs. Philly Joe Jones"
