Alleyways, the Mavericks, Benson Bubblers, and More Portland Icons
Description
Tomorrow, Nov. 12, is one of the most iconic days in Oregon history. It's the 55th anniversary of exploding whale day — when officials in Florence, Ore. decided to clear a beached whale carcass by blowing it up with dynamite. And it's the 55th birthday of Portland legend, figure skater Tonya Harding. So today on City Cast Portland, we're celebrating this holiday with help from local comedian Jay Flewelling and several sharp-tongued folks from our comedy scene. They're sharing their picks for our city and state's most iconic features, characters, and moments from history.
Discussed in Today’s Episode:
Sketchgiving, a comedy show produced by Jay Flewelling and starring some of today’s comedians.
