  • Bizarre Arkansas's Stewart Fuell shares his own experience with supernatural phenomena.
  • This week on Chewing the Fat with Rex and Paul (Rex Nelson and Paul Austin), Rex is out of town, so Paul begins a conversation with Jan Austin, his patient spouse, whom Paul often mentions in the broadcast, usually about how he was supposed to bring her a fried pie but ate it on the way home, as they talk about Rex, about going on some of Rex and Paul’s adventures, getting to know each other’s families in Helena and in Imboden, how she once picked out her own present, how Paul got his first television when he got out of the Navy and the smelly box it sat on, the window-rattling train that goes right by Paul’s family home in Imboden, how some friends there helped build a deck for Paul’s mother and the pressure they felt to get it square and level, the flood of 1982, Paul’s father’s scary but award-winning beard, charming Jan’s Yankee relatives, and meeting her favorite teacher. 
  • Music from the Butler Center's Arkansas Sounds music collection
