I love the commercials and PSAs. I am wierd like that; they are my favorite part of your podcasts.
Where do you find that stuff?
Hi Jason, I was just about to ask the same thing as merk!
The commercials really enhance the experience, and give the podcast that flavour of tuning into the radio on a summer day sometime in the 60s.
Another great show!

Some years ago some organization did a CD of Coca-Cola radio ads of the '60s and '70s - at that time Coke did a bunch of spots featuring soul and pop singers singing the "things go better with Coke" jingle in a style similar to their current hits. A fellow soul fan sent me a bunch of those. Some of the Coke spots are included on boxed sets of certain artists (i.e., the Little Milton spots I use). The John R "Soul Medallion" ad and the E. Rodney Jones ad for the Staple Singers LP came from aircheck tapes of those two DJs. The Otis Redding "Stay in School" PSA came from an Otis boxed set. There are also CDs full of blaxploitation movie radio spots, etc. That's where those came from.
I got the idea of using such things from listening to "Mr. C's Soul Spectacular" on WFMU. I do it because (a) it's fun and (b) the commercials allow me to "change gears" in the set, especially when I want to put a ballad in or when I want to play a song that has a quiet opening which would require the preceding tune to come to a complete stop.
