All hail the glow cloud Today we’re doing Welcome to Night Vale! This is one of the first podcasts I started listening to regularly, and it is one that I don’t listen to enough — I’m about fifty episodes in, which puts me around a hundred behind. This is an enjoyable, weird, and off-the-wall podcast …
On with the fiction, to one of the categories of fiction I tend to enjoy a lot more now that I’m a little older: The stuff set in the real world. Maybe it’s over ten years of being into hardboiled and film noir, but I used to absolutely be turned off by stuff like urban …
As mentioned in the Case Closed review, there are multiple Relic Radio podcasts that showcase a variety of old time radio shows. And to get in the spirit of all things creepy as Halloween season is beginning, I’m going to hit one of those today: Strange Tales. Our friends at Relic Radio put this one …
Now, for something completely different… something completely out there… something unique that has caused me much joy and nearly as much damage… Yes, it’s time for a podcast review of My Dad Wrote a Porno. They’re back this Monday for Season 5 — that’s five of these filthy, misguided books they’ve read. The podcast is …
Get this, and get it straight! Crime is a sucker’s road and those who travel it end up in the gutter, the prison, or the grave. There’s no other end… but they never learn! On this blog and through my writing I’ve shown an interest in some older fashion forms of entertainment. I like noir …
I’ve always been interested in Roman history, like a lot of people, and I enjoyed it back when the History Channel still regularly showed a lot of that sort of stuff — before they went full on World War 2 for a few years before becoming reality television. So what better way to hear about …
When I was a wee lad, and I didn’t quite want to admit that wrestling was scripted, I absolutely hated this man. Which is good for him — Easy E was playing a villain, and the mark of a great heel in wrestling is that the fans don’t like him (unless they’re the contrarian types …
The last of the non-fiction podcasts, before I hit the fiction ones for a bit: Bill Bur’s Monday Morning Podcast. Like Joe Rogan, Bill Burr has been one of my favorite of his generation of comedians for years now. There’s been a good crop of people who have come about and brought around a second …
Changing it up a bit from the comedian-centric podcasts, time for a very different and very interesting one: The Myths and Legends Podcast. Now, the nice thing about this podcast is the breadth of potential topics — the show could go on for years because there are so many myths and so many legends across …
I’ve been a big fan of Joe Rogan for quite some time now, ever since seeing some of his standup. Like Adam Carolla, he’s worked on a lot of different entertainment jobs over the years. In addition to his standup and podcast, he’s called UFC matches, he’s acted, and he hosted Fear Factor. The guy …
