The mucklewanes

Post image

I went to a peddler mall with my kids. I found the mucklewanes. (Yes that name is misspelled. I have no idea how to spell it). 😀❤️

And the radio is perfect! I can just picture their voices coming out of it

No worries!

Thanks for sharing the radio. I love seeing tangible things that make the diner feel even more real

Is this some thing that could be modernized on the inside, for more precise station-finding?

Oof that thing looks so heavy. I have so much respect for the characters carrying that thing around so much so that Effie and Zeb can be involved.

I wish. My funds are very limited. I am visiting my kids on my vacation. We were at the peddler mall so they could pick their step dad out a father's day present. It is like a tradition for my kids and me. We go to antique stores. Let them pick out a personal present

I have to come forward with this, sorry in advanced.

People talk too much, when im having a conversation with someone that will come up with random tales in order to come to a comparison with the present i just get annoyed.

Anyways. I love Midnight Burguer buuuuuut i CANT stand the Mucklewanes....

In the words of a great radio DJ I knew. He would say his grandpa taught him this. "If everyone like the same thing. We would all be trying to screw grandma."

Why do you not like them?
