Ep 17 Show Notes - Ted and Gennio "O"
(part 2)
This is the second of a three-part FreezeCast series with Ted Sr. and
Gennie “O” Okrzesik in which we celebrate Ted's
70th birthday on July 29, 2007. Appearing on this podcast are
FreezeDried’s own Hat Guy (Ted O Jr.) and Johnny O (both sons
of Ted & Gennie) along with cousin and polka drummer Timmy O
and of course your host, Jeff Veverka. In this podcast, we go back to
the beginnings of Ted’s musical career – growing up
in Chicago, starting the Polkaliers polka band with brothers Joe and
Bob, their LP album “Sparkling Polkas”, and meeting
Genevieve Bocian – who would later become better known as
Gennie “O”. Polkaliers songs featured are: "Pinkle
Pinkle Hop"; "Little Grandpa Polka”; and “Pijmy
Oberek”. The show is 47 minutes and 29 seconds long.
