“Pen Avenue” for September 2025

Here’s this month’s “Pen Avenue,” my cartoon for Print, Pittsburgh’s East End newspaper.

Print is not available online; you can only read it in (what else?) print. It’s available at Giant Eagle and other stores in Pittsburgh’s East End, or subscribe on the website.

Opinions expressed here are those of the host, and do not reflect the views of any other organization, including WRCT Radio Inc., Tube City Community Media Inc., Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh, or the Wilmerding Stretch-Mark Museum.

This is the personal blog of Jay Togyer, aka Jay Thurber, who has for two decades been spinning the golden-gassers on Pittsburgh’s wildest oldies show, every Saturday on Carnegie Mellon University’s very independent freeform WRCT-FM (88.3) in Pittsburgh and now simulcast on Tube City Online Radio in McKeesport.

From studios literally on the wrong side of the train tracks in McKeesport, Jay spins vintage vinyl and mixes in new tracks from emerging artists, too. All that plus classic comedy cuts and interviews from 12 to 3 p.m. Saturdays, with repeats (online only) Sundays and Wednesdays.
