Cutaway of black dog on chain; interview with Ralph Hardy (Chow Chow) while describing his 300 audiotapes; overview of different uses of channels on C.B. Ralph has been coming to the Slabs since 1984; was formerly a merchant seaman. His story of Sleepy’s late night blind date is an interesting tale. (Audio and video are both good on this tape and Ralph’s use of cassette tapes from C.B. broadcasts might work well if that theme is developed.)
