Well, we have kind of a fun and odd episode for you today. I have recently been playing around a little bit with sound effects libraries and music software and voice generators and various AI tools.

Those of you who remember the Manatee Facts podcast will remember that I really enjoy crazy audio editing.

And so I've been playing around and I have produced a kind of parody of American radio stations.

And I've done little old-time radio shows and 60s news reports and we've got

William F. Buckley in there and 90s commercials and Info Wars and just all kinds of things you

might hear on the radio. And I made little parodies of them. I used these kind of incredible,

Well, it's actually a real station named KWOZ, but this isn't set at that station. This is set at a fictitious KWOZ of my imagination.

And we explore all of the cliches of American radio.

I wrote lyrics to little jingles and scraps of songs, and I wrote little bits of news reports,

and I then used Adobe Audition to weave things together,

and I used a mixture of effects libraries and AI music software

to kind of make a sound scape. So all the voices you hear are going to be
