SpyCast!
Get the skinny on spying with the International Spy Museum’s SpyCast. The Background Briefings about East Germany’s “Romeo agents” and “Spies of the Kaiser” are pretty neat, too.
Spooky Old Time Radio
Listen to the Mercury Theater of the Air’s 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast and fear the impending Martian Invasion. And for more Halloween fun, listen to the chilling horror of shows like Suspense, The Inner Sanctum and The Strange Doctor Weird (who also sells hats).
Tammy Faye Bakker’s Puppet Songs
You knew evangelist and Queer icon Tammy Faye Bakker used to have a puppet show, right? And her puppets weren’t muppets, they were scary, shellac-headed hand puppets. Way Out Junk has Oops! There Comes a Smile, a collection of Tammy Faye’s puppet songs and stories.
Making It In Hollywood
Fewdio member John Crye explains it all in his podcast, “You Will Not Make It In Hollywood.” He also talks about geekery, fan films and reminsces about a crappy movie. (And Carol warning: two segments are from “Godzilla vs. MechaRealism” and “Frank Miller’s Hot Gates”).
Soundtracks! Listen!
The Sparrow soundtrack is as smooth and cool as Simon Yam in a relaxed fit suit. Grady Hendrix agrees, and then adds Bollywood for your immediate listening pleasure. Immediate in the sense of clicking through.
Your Own Private FanTasia
