Star Time #68: Walking in Rhythm


This episode includes the 2000th unique track to be played on Star Time, the event of which is marked with an accoutrement of manufactured celebrations and party favors, partially borrowed from the audio annals of The Price is Right. Get out your handkerchiefs. Other highlights from our 68th episode include wang dang doodles, postal rate policies, an oft-used hip hop sample and Jimmy Mack.
