Phoenix Foundation - A Macgyver Podcast

ORIGINAL AIRDATE: May 4th, 1987 --- MacGyver is once again tasked with smuggling a Russian dissident out of an asylum. MISSION: MacGyver is reluctantly paired up with a face from his past to break a Russian dissident out of prison, but the prisoner won't agree to emigrate without his wife in tow. This week's highlights include: Whirly tube (Instrument) The whirly tube, corrugaphone, or bloogle resonator, is a musical instrument which consists of a corrugated (ribbed) plastic tube (hollow flexible cylinder), open at both ends, which is swung in a circle to play. The faster the toy is swung the higher the pitch of the note it produces. It produces discrete notes in the harmonic series like a valveless brass instrument.
