At this site you can find all the stations for every state you're visiting and can even download them to your Palm Pilot.

The Frank & Fritzy Show

Part "Seinfeld," and part "The Sopranos," the Frank & Fritzy Show is an authentic series of conversations captured from wiretaps recorded by the FBI between 1985 and 1986. The Feds listened in on the home phone of Federico "Fritzy" Giovanelli, a Genovese crime family soldier, hoping to hear Fritzy discussing mob business with other New York wiseguys. Instead, they captured the daily chatter of two old pals, Fritzy and Frank "Frankie California" Condo, a fellow Genovese soldier, who called each other religiously every afternoon to talk about sex, movies, cholesterol counts, and marital strife. A new episode of The Frank & Fritzy Show airs every Wednesday, and each is funny, profane, sweet and quite remarkable. Requiring Real Player, the tapes were uncovered by The Smoking Gun, a web site that brings exclusive, confidential documents to the Web from material obtained via Freedom of Information requests.
