WKSU
presents "Holiday Stories from The Gundie
Journal"
|
|
characters you meet bear a striking resemblance
to members of your own family. WKSU presents “Holiday
Stories from The Gundie Journal.”
– Joe Gunderman (“Gundie”)

Here’s
a thought, if you told writers, “Create
something about the Holidays to be presented on
the radio. Any or all Holidays in December. That’s
your only direction. Now, go.”
What would they come up with?
That’s what a literary magazine does. No
themes, no editorial asking for specific plots
or subject matters, just a space, a forum, where
imagination can run in any direction.
The Gundie Weekly Journal, published as a ‘zine
from 1984 thru 1995 and attracting well over 100
writers, poets and cartoonists, was such a forum.
As the editor, I didn’t know what direction
each issue would take until the writers sent me
their creations. Then I worked with them to make
it the best the writer could present.
And so, transfer this idea to radio. |
|
After adding my directing, recording and editing
experience, add two important elements: The best
actors available, and good musicians, to make
the writers’ ideas work in audio.
So what did they come up with? Sentiment or silliness?
It turns out that Marc Jaffe, Angela Johnson,
Laurel Winter, Doug Sutherland and Mike Derrick
do like to laugh. Of course, there is meaning
in their humor. So we have a funny hour of stories
for you.
Ray McNiece is a poet, and he gives us vivid word
pictures of the season, again augmented with wonderful
sound played by his nephew and performance partner,
Sean Kelly.
So come along for an hour of Holiday stories you’ve
never heard before. You might find some of the .
