The Maid’s Sing-a-Long Late Show (1 a.m.) at the late, lamented Adventurers Club on Pleasure Island at Walt Disney World, Orlando, April 18, 1992. Sugar Snapp (Angela Napoleon) pulled Jym out of the packed 1 a.m. audience for two songs “best performed when the kiddies aren’t there.” Kungaloosh! Excerpts only, from a badly degraded tape, recovered by KODAK Digitization. Songs: “I’m in Love with ...

Emily Estelle Dingler (July 8, 1933 - February 22, 2019) Forever loved and cherished. “Nothing in life prepares you for losing your mother.” - Jym Dingler Music: Lara’s Theme (Somewhere My Love) by Maurice Jarre, originally from the “Dr. Zhivago” soundtrack, performed here by André Rieu & Orchestra. “Stranger on the Shore,” written and performed by Acker Bilk with string arrangement by Leon You...

Where a man feels at home, outside of where he’s born, is where he’s meant to go. - Ernest Hemingway, “Green Hills of Africa” I’ve always heard “You can’t go home again.” I didn’t think much about that until Jack died. It feels true, now that all four of my parents are gone. I was lucky, blessed really, to have two sets of parents. My Princeton, Illinois “second Dad” was Jack Malm. His wife Phy...

In 2012, a Russian amateur base diver attempted two daring events at once. First, he hoped to impress his girlfriend. Second, he was auditioning for the Test Pilot job at The ACME Corporation, maker of various gadgets, rockets, tornado seeds, giant magnets, dynamite, rocket-powered roller skates, classic anvils, giant rubber bands, and more. ACME’s best customer was a certain Wile E. Coyote (Ca...

Jym was in the ill-fated movie “Monkeybone” as the “Joe Camel/Cigarette Sweeper” character. Of course, he talked about it on the radio show… a lot. Hey, it was a big 20th Century Fox film! Well, you win some, you lose some. Same thing with arguments, as Jym & Debbie go a couple of rounds. Enjoy the rapid-fire, overlapping dialogue, a staple in Howard Hawks’ films. There were no arrests.

Restored video from distressed* videotape, shot during Vicky’s August 1999 skydiving adventure in Hollister, California. Featured music is “Listening” from Christafari’s 1995 album “Soulfire” ©℗ Sony Records. *Never take your original VHS tape to show at your office, where the conference-room video deck WILL chew it up. This always happens with master, only-copy videotapes.

Food, fun, suds and sun, all the way back in ‘91… on KFRC! It’s Beach Party Burlingame from the Burlingame, California Hyatt Regency Hotel. Part of a restored 1991 video from The Sturgeon mobile studio. I like the alliterative “Beach Blanket Burlingame” better, but a PARTY it was. RIP Suzy “Katz” Donenfeld, (1947-2019)

The Jym, Debbie & Bob Weekend Blastoff, restored version. This bit started at Top 40 X-100/San Francisco. We didn’t use it on KFRC/San Francisco. The original version was on a 2-track open-reel tape. For the Mix 106.5/San Jose show, we digitally rebuilt the audio from scratch, using new, clean versions of all the individual SFX and music. The Blastoff is bookended with the usual Friday show-clo...

From Summer 1999, Debbie regales us with the most-romantic Netflix & chill classic movies, plus one new questionable ‘90s entry.

This melancholy video was taken from my old drum-seat location, where I spent the better part of 1990-2010. I was back at my old San Francisco church home to go over some final details, and track down some old photos and gear. The last year was crushing for small businesses and many churches. New post-pandemic owners are coming and I wanted a last look from my old vantage point. Workers were bu...

This 2009 clip was included in the “Goodbye” reel for the last service at Bethel Christian Church, San Francisco, 27 June 2021. The church incorporation papers date to 1909, and it was in several locations from 1922-1955, when the 24th & Valencia/San Francisco campus opened. The multi-story, space-frame building was topped out in 1995. Post-pandemic, it becomes the home of another church, Reali...

If somebody swiped your theater tickets, what should you do? Put on your own musical! In 1999, “Rent” was the wildly popular musical, and we eagerly awaited our San Francisco media passes. Which never arrived. We heard management had a great time. Jym’s Broadcasting Rule 1: Don’t do what's already on, do what’s NOT on. We decided to improvise our own musical “Spent” on the radio show, and expla...

Recorded years ago, a demonstration for other churches of the Roland TD-20X expanded drum system. I used this after selling my 1987 Simmons SDX system #118. Demonstrates use of digital percussion to reduce stage volume and slapback in a very live room. In back is a Taiko drum wall using Simmons SDS-7 & 9 pads, played while standing.
