A series of audio rants created by [[Carl Bird]] that were streamed on SoundCloud as well as broadcast on a pirate radio station in the Rockford, IL area.

== Production ==

The existing recordings are of extremely low quality. They were recorded on tapes that seem to have already had material on them, in a very noisy environment. They were almost certainly made in an impromptu manner while Carl sat in his van near a park or a busy road. Given Carl's limited understanding of technology, he had his friend [[Crazy Jose]] digitize the recordings for wider distribution.

== Pirate broadcasts ==

Both episodes of Uncle Carl's Radio Show were broadcast several times over a period of two weeks in Rockford, IL from a mobile pirate radio station that typically features underground hip hop programming. As of {{CURRENTYEAR}}, the operator of the station is still unknown and at large. The US Federal Communications Commission has attempted to locate Bird for questioning but has been unsuccessful.

| Bird tells a story about being frustrated ~~about~~ being unable to find blank cassette tapes and heading to a flea market, then goes on a semi-racist tirade about buying tapes from a Mexican vendor, then laments that most pre-recorded audio is now stored on CDs~~, and~~ details a story about considering buying a CD player at a garage sale but declining upon hearing the price. Carl then proceeds to expound a bit about his history as a mall Santa Claus. The show ends as Carl flees from the police due to not being allowed within 100 feet of a school.
