Fat Power

The No Show | Mar 30, 2010
Steve Post remembers his days of greatness as measured by girth and recounts his success as convener of the Central Park "Fat-In," with its revolutionary call for Fat Power. Hear Steve at Sheep's' Meadow as he bleats, "TWO-HUNDRED AND FORTY-FOUR POUNDS. OH, NO!!!" Musical selections are pretty much as you would expect.
