Joe Bev's 50th New Radio Play in as Many Weeks Premieres Today

NAPANOCH, N.Y. - March 16, 2013 - PRLog -- When Cult Radio A-Go-Go asked Joe Bev to create a new weekly show, he set a challenge for himself--to make each hour a fully realized radio theater sitcom complete with funny running characters and plots and sound effects.

Fifty weeks later, Bev has not only written, produced, and directed fifty new hours of radio theater, but he has voiced more than half the characters himself.

TODAY's new radio play, "Camp Waterlogg-A-Go-Go! The Bollywood Honeymoon of Lefty & Olive," is part of The Comedy-O-Rama Hour, which is part of The Joe Bev 3-Hour Block,starting 2:30 pm ET / 11:30 am PT on http://www.cultradioagogo.com.

In the hour, Sgt. Lefty (Joe Bev) and Olive Pitts (Lorie Kellogg) are magically whisked off to India for their honeymoon by famous Indian magician Kutmar Kutmar (Joe Bev), leaving the Camp Waterloggers bewildered: Ellis the Boatkeeper, Adam Maxwell, Woody, Lil Andy (all Joe Bev)  and Elise, Like, and Mrs. Terwilliger (all Lorie Kellogg).

Meanwhile, Stinky and Luigi (both Kenny Savoy) start digging out of a freak snow storm.

It was announce on February 27 that Blackstone Audio, Inc., has entered into partnership with Joe Bev's Waterlogg Productions to providing its award-winning audiobooks to a wider audience.

On February 22, it was announced that Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) was chosen to be among those to receive a 2013 "Kean University Distinguished Alumni Award".

Bevilacqua has been producing radio in many genres most of his life. In 1980, at 19, Bevilacqua produced his first radio show, Liquid Comedy, for public radio station WRSU in New Brunswick, New Jersey and subsequently distributed internationally by the National Federation of Community Broadcaster (which became Pacifica Radio Archives). He co-hosted The Jazz Show with Garret Gega in the early 80s, a four hour a week mix classic jazz and comedy for WKNJ in Union, New Jersey.

Bevilacqua also worked for WBGO, Jazz 88 in Newark, NJ and produced documentaries for WNYC New York Public Radio on jazz legends including Louis Armstrong, Wynton Marsalis, Count Basie, Woody Herman, Cab Calloway, and Lionel Hampton.

He is a frequent contributor to National Public Radio, and in 2009, Bevilacqua did a commentary for Marketplace about his "green lifestyle".
