In 2015, the podcast, along with guest Jeff Abraham, premiered a long-lost, in-studio (without audience) track about Paul Revere that Abraham discovered on an acetate at a rummage sale.[1]
On December 27, 2018, the podcast released its first narrative-style episode, chronicling the host's search for, and discovery of, the true identity of comedian Dick Davy.[2] In 2015, comedy historian Kliph Nesteroff introduced Klamm to Davy's work and revealed that Davy's true identity and backstory were unknown.[3] Prior to this, Nesteroff had chronicled his interest in Davy on the blog at WFMU.[4]
