Duration: 2 min 6 s
Channel: T.Ray Larsen
Description: "Hooked On Phonics (aired 1995)" is a song by Tom Larsen and The Vistanauts. At the time (mid '90s) the "Hooked on Phonics" radio commercials were ubiquitous. On a whim I called a local talk radio station--The R. Moore Show--and riffed a little comedic bit as "Joe" . . . who was tragically . . . hooked on phonics . . . :)
