The Uncollected ”And Lemme Tell Ya’...” Columns of Meredith Stregland: ’88 to ’89
This is a seven-part limited series fiction podcast written and produced by Trash Clapton, starring Marc Stephens. Meredith Stregland was a midlist humor columnist of the 1980’s. So how come his final year of the “And Lemme Tell Ya’…” column was never collected into a paperback? Is it because it started to get… weird? Hear for yourself. For the first time since their initial newspaper appearance, we present the “missing” columns of Meredith Stregland. CREDITS: Written and produced by Trash Clapton. Starring Marc Stephens as the voice of Stregland’s columns. Also featuring Jason Everett as the editorial commentary. The show logo on the home page of the website is a photograph of the statue “St. George as his own dragon”, from 1978, by the artist Paul Kubic. The photograph was taken by Paul. The song featured in episodes 4 and 7 is “Ashes on Your Eyes” by Deb Talan. This series is copyright 2024-2025.
