Welcome back to another episode of Norm Nathan’s Vault of Silliness. Today’s feature presentation is a couple of back-to-back hours of a NNS from June 22nd, 1996. I have titled it: A Cozy Companion. Not just because we talk about rescuing animals but because Norm was like that to so many people during those over weekend overnights.
We begin with an excellent traffic report from Jack Harte sponsored by Acura.
Our first guest was Robert Davenport author of “The Celebrity Birthday Book.”
Norm left the book at home. It was only the 2nd day in the new WBZ studios and the ensuing growing pains left Norm all discombobulated. Davenport was a great guest with lots of fun info and tidbits about celebrities. He had also authored some other creative books on celebrity children names, celeb pet names and more.
Our next guest was Sonia DiTomasso, Director of Public Relations for the Animal Rescue League of Boston – talks about Morris the Cat making an appearance to support their effort to raise funds for homeless animal shelters.
Then it’s on to all sorts of callers:
Bob Sacco, who sounds like a guest, but just called in, hosts a Big Band Show on WAZL in Hazelton PA
Unknown caller
Ruth Clenott
Norma from Boston

Bill in Worcester
