Joe Frank - The Voice In Your Head

If you are not familiar with his amazing legacy of radio programs, let
me recap. Joe Frank was on the radio for decades starting in NYC on
WBAI in the 1970s, then NPR and ended his career on KCRW in Los
Angeles with his death in 2018. I don’t think anyone created "Theatre
Of The Mind" radio to his level. He invented and then perfected his
own genre of radio monologue/dialogue. Each show is a journey that is
sometimes surreal, sometimes comic, sometimes harrowing and always
mesmerizing. His impact on listeners is deep and most fans can
remember their first Joe Frank show. David Sedaris, Ira Glass (first
paid radio job was engineering for Joe) and Harry Shearer are all big
fans.

To learn about Joe Frank quickly there is a movie called JOE FRANK -
SOMEWHERE OUT THERE. It's a documentary about his life and work
(available to rent online.) I’ve attached a link to the trailer. It
gives you a short overview of his style, his story and his impact.

From the Joe Frank web page: "Joe Frank’s unique mix of
autobiographical monologues, interviews and candid conversations,
woven together with trance-like music, engage listeners in a
philosophical exploration, an intimate confession, an absurd comedy, a
dark tragedy; all of which Frank takes to the farthest edge while
bringing you along for the alternately emotional and/or enlightening
ride."

I hope some of you will tune in and experience the radio work of Joe Frank.
