The Comedy-O-Rama Hour: Joe Bev Records 59th New Radio Theater in the Woods May 18 2:30 pm on CRAGG!

"Lil Andy Lost" airs Saturdays as part of The Joe Bev 3-Hour Block, which includes The Jazz-O-Rama Hour & The Joe Bev Experience, starting 2:30 pm ET, 1:30 CT, 11:30 PT on cultradioagogo.com!

This Saturday, May 18th, The Comedy-O-Rama Hour presents "Camp Waterlogg-A-Go-Go! Lil Andy Lost". The new radio play is part of The Joe Bev 3-Hour Block, starting 2:30 pm ET / 11:30 am PT on http://www.cultradioagogo.com.

Joe Bev hikes the woods with his border collie, Sophie behind his rustic home in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. Leaves crackle beneath his feet. A whirl of leaves beneath Sophie's. Cardinals tweet in the elms above. The increasing rush and bubble of the creek and falls as he walks.

Spring in the Catskills

But this hike is also a radio play--Joe Bevilacqua's latest one-hour radio play is also his 59th new "Camp Waterlogg" installment in just over a year.

"I had not planned it, but I started talking to Sophie in my Lil Andy voice and suddenly I was improvising a secene with the poor kid lost in the woods!" exclaims Bevilacqua who carries his SONY ICD-SX712 digital recorder with him at all times.

"The portability of technology today allows me to make radio theater anywhere at anytime! It's the reason my output has increased geometrically," admits Bev.

Next week, The Comedy-O-Rama Hour will celebrate its 60th new show on Cult Radio A-Go-Go! in nearly as many weeks, a feat it took Bev four years to accomplish while during his stint at Siruis-XM.
