Super late trapezoid at that! If this was any later, I can assure you a proud N would pop up in here somewhere. But nope! This June 16, 1979 rerun of the Saturday Night Live episode featuring Rick Nelson & Judy Collins off WBAL-TV 11 in Baltimore, Maryland is sure to please people who are into 70s commercials! Far-out, sister!

Nearly two and a half *hours* worth of Bounce-era Disney Channel from November 30, 2003! This insane compilation of Disney is from the complete Lizzie McGuire Marathon and a Movie marathon, and includes promos for Sleeping Beauty, MovieSurfers looks inside The Haunted Mansion, and a whole lot of music videos Disney is apparently A-OK with letting me use (sans a Cheetah Girls video, but YT thought that was the movie)
This video has taken like a week and a half to compile and edit, hoping it's worth it

I own nothingWDOR-FM Scoped Aircheck and Sign-Off (October 31, 2016)Frys Video Archives2024-11-01 | Am I doing this right? This here is a scoped radio aircheck from Door Country, WI full service station WDOR-FM circa October 31, 2016. I don't know how I discovered this station, but when you're scanning your local radio band for Halloween music and come across a mystery frequency playing Weird Al and Spooky Scary Skeletons (before it became a meme!), you know you gotta record as much of it as you can. Hey, 15 year old me did something right for once! And unbeknownst to me (at the time), this station actually did something unheard of for a modern broadcast station, they signed off! Like, with a national anthem and everything! That was pretty cool.
This is scoped from a larger aircheck, meaning all DJ bits and station bumpers are in this video. And I gotta say, this is one of the best local radio airchecks I've seen in recent years, especially from the 2010s. I'd point to Archive for the full thing, but that got hacked before I could upload it and now is in read only mode. If you know, you know where to look

From September 24, 2000 off Toledo ABC affiliate WTVG-TV 13, this Big Picture Show airing of the 1996 beloved time-capsule is loaded with fun breaks and whatnots that every Tune Squad fan should watch! It's a bit damaged at the beginning and the sound isn't that hot (even after re-calibrating the audio heads), but that won't stop you from watching it. You live for the SLAM JAM

These commercials are sourced from the premiere of the Smallville episode "Lineage" on November 5, 2002 off The WB affiliate WIWB 14 in Green Bay. Technically partial but really only part of a sponsor is cut off so this is more or less complete. Includes inopportune TV Guide surfing!

In honor of Paris 2024's opening ceremony, here's breaks that aired during the opening ceremony of the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta off NBC! These aren't all of them, the recorder skipped commercials over the first hour or so I believe, but a good lot of them are here!
From KING-TV 5 in Seattle, you got your sappy slow ads typical for the Games BUT you also got Jason Alexander doing wacky basketball stunts while promoting pretzels, Spinal Tap promoting Visa, Jeff Foxworthy doing a Wizard of Oz type thing for NBC, and a WHOLE lotta Coca-Cola (which makes sense, it was happening in their hometown). Why can't Olympics ads be like this anymore

There are aggressive tones that will hurt your ears, I advise that you turn down your volume for this one
Something different! This here is a spooky AMBER Alert activation from June 11, 2017 recorded off of Green Bay/Fox Cities radio station WKRU-FM 106.7, during their last few months as an alternative station before flipping over to classic rock that December. This activation occurred during an airing/spinning(?) of the Modern English classic "I Melt With You".
This particular message activated two more times during the day: on WKRU they happened between Michael Franti's "The Sound of Sunshine" and Andrew McMahon's "Fire Escape", and again between The Fixx's "Red Skies" and fun.'s "We Are Young". I believe the YT bot freaks out less with older music so the first activation was chosen.
Before anybody freaks out, the kid was found safe.

This is a weather alert from Fox Toledo (WUPW 36) interrupting The Simpsons' "The Ned-liest Catch" regarding a band of thunderstorms heading into the Toledo area. I didn't realize they did these this late, given the internet, the EAS, and everything else. They probably still do these kinds of alerts nowadays in more rural markets I'm not aware of. Interesting stuff

Believe it or not this local car stereo chain has lore attached to it. I'm not joking, I've found more commercials before *and* after this one that have the same "Hi Steve" and "Turtle" bits. I'm not even sure this is from 2005

This is the only Oggy airing I have recorded, and uh, in case you forgot the camper episode managed to get the show pulled from Nick stateside because of a split-second topless drawing somebody was somehow able to spot. For the record: when I recorded this, that had not happened yet. Enjoy commercials for the Thundermans, Haunted Hathaways, and more!

And more 2014 goodness, like DreamWorks Dragons 2 on DVD! Monster High! A commercial for the then three-year-old Mario Kart 7! And robots of the cartoon kind (Big Hero 6) and the real kind (Mip). Accept no substitutes.
Before anybody asks, this was recorded on VHS mainly because I didn't have a digital recording method at this time. And when I *did* get a digital recording method, these airings were long gone from my DVR. Sorry if this bothers you, but to be fair it kinda adds to the flavor
