John & Gordy dive deep into the early days of the Onion, and DPW's Graeme Zielinski.

John: "I've always been a big fan the Onion, especially in the very early days. Gordy and I interviewed two onion representatives, Democratic Party of Wisconsin's former spokesman Graeme Zielinski and Rich Dahm (I believe that's his last name) and dug deep into the headlines. Straight faced and serious, the Onion stayed true to its purpose; being the first report stories no one else noticed. Zielinski's sharp edged humor is more than apparent here."

John & Gordy with Marques Bovre and the Evil Twins!

John: "Basement Bands was an idea that started well, but then fell apart due to our own lack of energy. Don't get me wrong, nothing would have been more incredible than to have Madison's best local talent on for entire half hour, but it was a lot to ask when you consider the size of the Access 4 audience.

Marques Bovre and the Evil Twins performed our favorite songs, along with a real oddity at the end of part 2. These guys should have made it nationally. Another missed opportunity in the music world. I'm hoping the remaining band members are okay with his nugget of brilliance featured here. What a time..."

"Marques Bovre died peacefully at his home early Monday morning, February 11, after a long tussle with a malignant brain tumor."

NOTE: A better cleaned up version is now featured at the Marques Bovre website, watch it there:



Here's part 2
