Dr. Exner: Thanksgiving commentary, undated

1975/1986

Dr. Exner: Thanksgiving commentary, produced by KRAB is a discussion about the influence of jazz music alongside examples of notable jazz pieces, undated.

Former KRAB staffer Chuck Reinsch recalls: "Dr Frederick B Exner was a regular commentator on alternate Fridays through the 1960's.  He was by profession a radiologist, and spoke regularly about the dangers of flouridated water.  Years before he had a recording company, Exner Records, and produced a number of classic jazz recordings.  Sometimes for his commentary he would take a break from flouridation, bring some of his 78's up to the station and talk about the musicians.  During the mid-1960's I engineered and announced on Friday nights.  This was probably recorded and aired on the night of Feb 29,1968, or Nov 28, 1969 the only days Exner did a commentary on the day after Thanksgiving."
