Hello, and welcome to FlashCast episode nineteen – prepare yourself for Nazis, 9/11, bumpers, Bin Laden fiction, and Erica Moen.

(upbeat music) Hello and welcome to Flashcast episode 19. Prepare yourself for Nazis, 9/11, Bumpers, Bin Laden Fiction, and Erika Moen. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) Tonight we have myself, Opopon X, Picture Provider, Jessica May. - Hey. - How do you assemble her? And Jay Hardy. - Hello. - Chair warmer. - So not long before we were beginning recording, watching a little of the old Bin Laden news, CNN special, Phil on their Sunday airtime. - The way it went down, or some such thing. - I think in the near future, we're going to see a blossoming of seal fiction. - Yeah. - Like seal team six, or whatever. It's probably going to get its own series of hard punching books. - When you say it will blossom into this seal fiction, all I can think of is like blossom with the hats and Joey Lawrence, dinner best friend six. - Oh, we're not talking about that. - A guest nut. - Oh. - Hey. - Oh hoi. Yeah, testimonials and documentaries and Sunday night specials on, you know. - Yeah, it was me, it was all because of me. I got in there and I signal handedly destroyed. - Well, I'm just thinking of that. - That totally reminds me. There's this crazy guy that says he was the one that-- - Oh, the bounty hunter? - Yeah. That he traveled to that area and he flushed him out. - Sure. - Yeah. - But he was way to the north and the mountain areas. - Oh, there's no way he was there for five years. I just flushed him out just now. - Yeah, he was found with a Bible, a knife, you know, a Bible is sword, a gun. - Something else. - And he looks just like, he looks like a little leprechaun. A wisened little leprechaun. - Goon around, get me bounty. - Yeah. Anyway. - Yeah, whoever did it though, glad to hear he's dead. - Yeah. - If anyone has to be dead, that's a good one. - I'm just saying you remember the movie Delta Force with Chuck Norris, I believe? - Yeah. - I'm saying there's gonna be a lot of those. There's gonna be a lot of, you know-- - What is there, a lot of kicking and punching in Chuck Norris? Single sentence lines. - No, Delta Force in the '80s was like the elite fighting force of the day. - Yeah. - Sort of the preference. - Oh, oh, pardon me. - So now it's going to become all, well, I suppose there was a Navy SEALs with Charlie Sheen. It'll be like a SEAL Team Six movie and it'll be-- - Charlie Sheen will be like, "I totally flushed out Bin Laden." - Yeah, right. Do you recall the Sergeant Rock comics? - Heck yes. - Of course. So, I mean, I wonder if you'll start seeing like, comics coming out that aren't like, you know, necessarily army or whatever, but you'll have like, the seals or like, the Marines or whatever, you know? - Easy company. Oh, wait, no, that's-- - I was pretty interested to see how the mainstream media was totally playing it up and it being like, this, you know, I figured they would, but because they seem so Republican and right leaning and very easy to disparage President Obama, I was surprised everyone was so, you know, what can you do but help back him? But I was surprised at all the usual naysayers who rang him, but what can you do? Like you can't go against him but, yeah, open support, weird. - The flip side that I think is going to crop up as well is either alternate universe fiction involving Bin Laden or also possible assassination plot books with Bin Laden. Like in the same way that there was alternate kill Hitler histories. - I read this book about this lady who like, it was a book that I borrowed from one of our friends who likes to read girly books about shopping and romance. - Anyways, it was a really good book but it ended up, she blew up in London or she was very close to like, it happening and she, and this is like, obviously years after 9/11, but-- - Odd? So this is like Bridget Jones's got rid of assassination. - Yeah, it was some lady who was, you know, traveling and ended up in a situation where she was taken on as a, a ransom, taken on. - Yeah, sort of for a short time, as a hostage, yes. And yeah, and it was somebody who looked very much like Bin Laden and he died. - Odd. - Yeah, so it's already come out, obviously, apparently. - Eat, eat, pray assassinate. - Yeah, right, I remember my dad had a series of books that was, I pre-supposed that right at the beginning of the Second World War, aliens invaded. And basically, they had, they were Hitler. - Well, no, they weren't Hitler but, you know, us humans had to band together against the aliens despite being in the midst of a world war. I can't remember what it was, you know. All I can think of is access and analyze but that's just an awesome game, it's not-- - Yeah, I don't recall the alien faction. - Yes, something about the access of evil or something like that. - It's interesting that you mentioned that because I was also considering that I think we write, we do the occasional horror episode and especially with car work with the end of the world, if you will. - Yeah. - I was thinking about the function of these sort of terrible disasters and why we enjoy reading about them. And I think that to a certain extent, Godzilla attacks the city or zombies assault us, which is a big thing now, you can't swing a hipster without hitting somebody's zombie self-defense plan. - Yeah, like look at that zombie proof house that you posted the other day. - I think that was actually Peter from radiosrebenge.com. - Oh, okay, yeah, that's right, that's right. - Postered that up on my Facebook page. - Oh my gosh, was that ever wonderful? Where's my zombie proof house, J-R-D? - But at the same time, I think the function that these stories are maybe providing is to sort of prepare us against the unimaginable. No one could have, like, really seriously said, you know, the Twin Towers are going to be hit by planes and like that would have seen like a pretty far fetched fiction piece. - Yeah. - So, you know, it's not Godzilla, but in your mind, you're sort of running through what would happen if something really terrible happened? - Yeah, plus I think too, it also keeps it very clear in your mind who the bad guy is, the giant monster. - You don't have to be accusatory against any one group or whatever you-- - Yeah, you're not being discriminatory, it's a giant monster, it's snakes on a plane. - Snakes on a ball pit. Oddly, to loop around. Speaking of 9/11, did you guys hear that thing about Michael Jackson, Brando, and Liz Taylor, all escaping from New York in the same car when 9/11 happened? Apparently, Jackson had invited them to some sort of concert event at Medicine Square Garden, and then the planes hit, and they maybe had a pharmaceutical flip out or whatever those three get up to, and they just bolted in like a rented car, and they drove 500 miles to Ohio. - Oh wow, they just kept going. - Michael Jackson, Liz Taylor, and Marlon Brando. - Yes. - That sounds like a joke. - It sounds like an indie movie with three known actors doing heavy makeup jobs, just like-- - I would love, and I'm sure because of, you know, their obsessive paranoia about being seen, and also being drug addicts. I guess the driver really wouldn't see anything, but that would be an interesting story to tell if they had it, you know, overheard anything. Like, what would those three get up to talk to you about? - Well, no, the thing is they drove themselves. - Oh, it's like-- - They themselves took turns at the wheel. Apparently, Brando kept stopping at like every KFC employees he passed. - Fear and loathing in Ohio. - Yeah, and what made them stop? Like, they just got so bored. They're like, everything seems to be okay. - I think we're safe now. - Yeah. - The panic and the prescriptions ran out and-- - It was like, geez, MJ, it's okay. Turn around, man, go home, go home. Gonna get a nap. - Anyway, I think there's some contention as to if Liz was actually in the car or not. I think she claims to have been, while she, her publicist claimed that she was elsewhere. And the fact that all three of them have died since is kind of tough to collaborate the story, but-- - Oh, I didn't realize Marlon Brando was dead. When did he die? - A few years ago. - I believe, anyway. Now you've got me worried, have I-- - There is now a large hole in Hollywood. - He died in 2004. - Oh, thank you. - So, anyway, I thought that was an odd story. - Mm-hmm. - Speaking of odd stories. Oh, speaking of Nazis and alternate histories, actually, we have an interesting call from the mail bag. - No, don't hit there. (laughing) (bell ringing) - Hey, Flashcast, three day fish here. - Hello. - I was taking a break from my research project when I came across probably one of the pulpiest movie premises I've ever seen. The movie is called "Iron Sky," and it's opening in 2012. And this is the synopsis. Of course, the end of World War II, the Nazi scientists made a significant breakthrough into gravity. From a secret base built in the Antarctic, the first Nazi spaceships were launched in late '45 to found the military base. Shwar sawn, black sun, on the dark side of the moon. This base was to build a powerful invasion fleet and return to take over Earth once the time was arrived. Now it's 2018, and it's time for the first American moon landing since the '70s. Meanwhile, the Nazi invasion has been over 70 years in the making, and it's on its way. And the world is goose sniffing towards its doom. - That's great. - Yeah. That's the plot, and what else is interesting about this movie is that over a million dollars of its budget is from fans. - Whoa. - Really? - So yeah, thought that was interesting. - Also saw Priest over the weekend. Pretty good. - I like the melody. - I don't play if you're into action movies and it comes up for Priest. If you're looking for any sort of plot though, it's all kind of in time. So yeah, always listening. - Can we thank you for that? So, okay, what is this fundraising movie making? - Well, see, I seem to recall having heard about Iron Sky a number of years ago, maybe around the time that-- - Doesn't that seem impossible? - Captain, what was that movie Captain Tomorrow in the Land of Nowhere? No. Captain Future, Sky Captain in the-- - Oh, your mother. - Yeah, Sky Captain in the World of Tomorrow. - Yes. - Which was really-- - Jude Law. - Yeah. - Angelina Jolie, an iPad. - What if Peltra? - No, she was in that. She had an iPad. - Okay, pardon me. - See, now here's the thing. Jude Law kind of ruins films. Anyway, I thought around the same time that film came out, this movie was getting off the ground, and it was, they had a teaser trailer out, and it looked like maybe all of their footage had gone into it. Maybe I'm mistaking this with another film. Anyway, yeah, a lot of the budget came from fans, and it looks really good. - Do you have to be pro-Nazi or anti-nancy to donate to this film? - Well, no, they're obviously-- - And how did they know it was coming? They have these, this production house done things before. Like, how did you get backing like that? - I think a word of mouth got out around their original trailer, which was fairly impressive. It was obvious that they had the chops to accomplish what they were going for, and the premise sounded like a lot of fun, and they just needed some cash. - Do they have any big names in it? - The guy who plays the lead Nazi is a known actor, but his name escapes me at the moment. - Okay. - And the odd thing is the way the trailers are portrayed, the really neat, there's a lot of retro-looking UFOs covering about, and in one of the latest trailers, I believe they've demonstrated that the mother ships, these alien, or these UFOs are coming from, look a lot like Zeppelin's, which strikes-- - Oh, that's fantastic. - Yeah, strikes right at my heart, it's fantastic. But the odd thing is they haven't really demonstrated in any way, they're obviously taking an anti-Nazi stance, but they haven't demonstrated how the rest of the world is in any way going to react, or somehow overcome these massive and quite imposing looking Nazi forces. So it's interesting, I'm looking forward to it. - It's pretty easy premise. - Really appreciate the heads up. - You've got a refreshing to see something so different. Yeah, that should be cool. - And now, as for Priest, I have a lot of respect for Paul Bettany, who plays the lead in Priest. I think he was really-- - He's a cancer number one. - Yes. - Okay. - He was really the only watchable part of a night's tale in my mind. - Yes, Chaucer, right? - Yeah. - And I thought he actually did a fairly charismatic job in that role. - Wasn't he also in the Da Vinci Code? - I honestly haven't seen the film. - No. - No, that was a little known actor called Tom Hanks. (laughing) - He's just in her face, that was so cute. - Oh, Peter. - Oh, you knew what? - So, but here's the thing. Sorry, before we get too sidetracked, although I have a lot of respect for Paul Bettany, the film looks kind of redonculus. - I don't know that I want to watch it. I don't like-- - You like having plot. Plot is important. - Yeah. - Yes, you need to be able to at least follow what's going on. - Going back to Tom Hanks for a moment, I know we had just recently been talking about Banksy and one of our flashplants. - Yes. - I actually subscribed to an RSS feed of the Wooster Collective, and it shows all different graffiti and stuff throughout the world. And one of the images they had up recently was Hanksy and it was a Tom Hanks balloon, and it said catch me if you can, and it was like floating away, and then underneath it said Hanksy. - That's adorable. - I thought that was great. - Yeah. - Yeah, I was pretty happy with that. - I don't know how many times you could use that, but great for-- - Yeah. - Anyway, thanks for the call in. - Yeah, that was great. Thanks for-- - Your role as movie aficionado. Wait, do we have a theme song for him yet? - No. - Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. - I think we established-- - He's watching movies. (laughs) - Speaking of fantastic people calling in regularly, semi-regularly, we have another call from our Viennese legend dispenser, Ingrid, and she has another fantastic tale to tell us. - Teline Drie at St. Stevens. It was in 1144 when it was planned to build a new rectory for the priest of St. Stevens Church. Reverend Eberhard and architect Falkner stood together and talked about the plans. We must remove the linen tree. I think that's the best place for the building the architect said. Oh, please, there must be another way. I love that tree. This tree is like a dear friend of mine. The linen is as old as I am, and I don't like to see the tree dying before me. So they changed the plans in a way that the linen tree could remain standing. And for the priest's pleasure, it even came better than it was already, because now he could see his beloved tree when he looked out of his window. With the years, the linen tree grew larger and more beautiful. The priest, however, was getting older. His hair was already white and he was getting tired. One sunny day in fall, Reverend Eberhard sat under his beloved linen tree as he did so many times before in his life. He was already 70. He was blacked by a bad cough and he couldn't sleep well anymore. When he saw the leaves falling, he saddened. The falling leaves are like the remaining days of my life. He looked at the tree just one more time. I want to see your blooming. Then I will agree to die. The winter came and the priest's state of health became worse. When I was covered with no, the linen tree was bare and spring still far away. One morning the priest knew that his death was near. He could hardly breathe. And so he asked the servant to open the window. Reverend, it's very cold outside. The servant said, "Oh, don't care about that. "I have to see if the linen, "the servant nodded and fulfilled the priest's wish. "Then he helped the ancient to the open window. "They both couldn't believe what they saw. "The linen tree was full of blossoms. "River and Ava had smiled. "Then he lost his lost power and he fell to the ground. "Suddenly a wind gust blew through the tree "and drove the fragrant blossoms through the open window. "Till the dead man was completely covered." - Wow. - Thank you so much, Ingrid. - That was fantastic. - Yeah, that was really great. It's all so dramatic, it's great. - I love that there's so many legends surrounding one structure as well. Sort of a loss that we have here in North America where we don't necessarily have buildings that are that old. We can't really go down to the, you know, the Quikimart and be like 1,000 years ago when this Quikimart stood here. - Yes, not that we really have Quikimarts, but... - Well, I'm giving a general description, yeah. - But making you deal with the tree. - Mm-hmm. - Yeah, that's pretty cute. - Such a romantic idea. - And I suppose that's sort of what I'm trying to do with coffin is to provide a little urban mythology, but... - Yeah, but there's only so far, you can go back. - Mm-hmm, so anyway, thank you very much, Ingrid. - Yes. - This is a lovely reading. As it always is. - Lovely addition, thank you. - And now, someday, we're going to have to make it our mission to actually visit St. Stephen's and see these sites. - Yeah, that'd be wonderful. Take me to Vienna. - Yeah, done and done. - All right, let's pack. I like the way you said blossoms, yes. - Yeah, I noted that as well, it was fantastic. - And he lost his, what, last power? - Last power. - I like that. - Mm-hmm. - Oh, that reminds me, I did some reading on St. Stephen's recently on the Cathedral, and I don't want to give away a possible future reading, and I hope I'm not, but they, apparently, one of the legends associated with the churches, they have a weeping, merry painting there. - Oh, yeah. - It was taken from another location where it was originally said to have wept, and then once it was moved, it wept no more, but apparently it's still highly venerated. - Very cool. - Oddly enough, the people of the original location demanded their painting back, and a copy was sent, not the original copy, but it was also hung up in a place of veneration, and the knock-off also now weeps, or at least at some point was said to have wept, which is weird, I guess it's not so much the-- - The painting is the site. - Yeah, I don't know. - So did we get any other calls? - We have a-- - We have a final call in. - I know how much people love to call our show. You could say they're addicted to it. - This is Bill, I had been talking to Bill about the meeting, my news and services, I guess I should have called, or something, I came on up here tonight, but I can't find, there's a big group meeting, but there's a lot of people in that, and I didn't walk in there, I'm assuming that's the wrong one, so I guess they're not, they're not having a meeting, and they had acted, I couldn't find it, so anyway, I just wanted to touch base with somebody, and maybe to call me back and get better corrections on it where I'm going next time, it's kinda weird. - So I don't, like, there were too many people there, so he didn't wanna go in, he assumed that it wasn't the right place, and it wasn't the wrong, yeah, it wasn't the right meeting. Who's to say there aren't like a lot of sex addicts? - That's honestly, that's the only reason I've, that weird detail is the only reason I played the call, 'cause I just felt bad for the guy, he was obviously just looking for some assistance, and yeah, and still finds our number despite us trying to do it. - Well here's the other thing, I have this weird feeling that in some dusty corner of this church in Florida, there's-- - Still a poster somewhere. - Yeah, a printout of the number hanging on a wall somewhere. - My theory is that he's called before, he is obviously a frequent caller? - Yeah, a frequent sex addict, I don't know, a frequent sex user, what? - He's pulling off the bandwagon. - Yeah, no, I think that maybe he already had the number, and that's why he's called the new number. Or that's why he's called that number, 'cause he just knew the new number. - I didn't, it would be an awkward conversation to call him back and be like, hey-- - Can you clarify for me what it was that you meant, sir? We're trying, we're doing a podcast up in Canada. - Up in the Canada. - Yeah, A, and maple syrup. (laughing) - Polar bears, you know what I say, up there? - I would love to be able to call some of these people back and be like, you know what, I'm sorry, this is a podcast, it's not a sex addict. - That ended up right here. - I've got the number for you though, here. Hang on, we asked our listeners to help out. - I do have enough sympathy for these people that I don't wanna be harassing them. - Yeah, yes, but being addicted to anything is not good. - Yeah, yes, in moderation people, anything, in everything in moderation. Well, maybe not everything. - No, but sex is okay in moderation. - I think this is a good time to move on to back room plots. - Back room watch. - So, I have a sort of confession to make. We only made two scripts. We only put out two episodes last week. - We're losers, man, podfade. - But weren't they great? - Go right, go right. - Well, honestly, I'm just the ongoing stresses of existence. - Well, yeah. - It's gonna be over, I mean, not existence, but the extra stressy factors. - At some point, they have to end, but. - Exactly. - Anyway, I do feel relatively proud of the two episodes we put out. - And it's nice that our viewers are bearing with us so nicely. - And our listeners, yeah. - Yeah, but if you wish you could see this. - But you were going to release one, but it wasn't considered up to snuff. So you worked on it the next day. You're actually gonna get rid of it entirely. And then I'm like, what are you doing? You crazy, crazy muffin. - Yes, it got reworked. - And so, yeah, I told you what to do. And you listened as you should. And here we are with two wonderful episodes. - I was really happy with the pilgrimage. We recorded that at night, and then I went to sleep. And Jared, you realized, mid slumber. - Oh, it was so funny. - But it wasn't-- - Oh, not funny, haha. - Yeah, the mic had been pointed basically in the wrong direction. - The wrong way, they did it themselves the one time. And they had the mic facing the wrong way. Isn't that funny, everybody? - So, rather than wake me up and make me do it again-- - I'm gonna go, oh no, from downstairs into downstairs. Just come here, just come here, just come here. I'm like, it is late, nothing is going to happen. Give it up, it's good. And then you wouldn't even put on the internet. We had to do it entirely new than we did. - We did it the next day, but I think it actually may even have been better. - It always is, with more practice, it always comes out better. - I found that a very epic episode. I enjoyed it thoroughly. - It was a little longer word count wise than normal episodes, but I feel like-- - It didn't feel longer. It just felt-- - No more-- - Yeah, I know I commented on the blog a few days ago, but it felt like one of those epic episodes to me, like I compared it to The Rocket Man. Like, there's a certain factor in it where it almost chokes me up a little near the end, just near the climax or whatever, and I'll be like, if it's getting me emotional, then I know it's gonna grab some people. If I've got such a reaction to it, then it's good. - I'm happy with the way that time passed and time felt like it was passing within the story. When I can nail that, and I think that's part of what made The Rocket Man good as well is, well, hopefully good, was that you start with a very young age and you work right through to their adulthood and-- - It's almost got like a fairytale quality to it. - Well, to a certain extent it has to, 'cause everything has to be a little bit generalized, to be able to cover that much time in that much space, but I try to bring it down with just a moment of humanization before bringing it back out to a larger view and throwing a few years in between it or whatever. - Yeah, I was very pleased with that one. - Nice work, we'll keep you around. - Yeah, thanks. - Keep writing them stories. - So we got a good week coming up though, I'm excited about that and the dropped, if anybody's wondering what happened to the dropped coffin story, it'll be leading off on Monday. It really needed-- - More. - To be assaulted, yeah. - What'd you have? - Thoroughly pummeled it just earlier in the bunker. - The audio, an acidity of hope. At first glance, it doesn't seem that interesting. I mean, we're hoping to do some little adverts, right? Little small descriptions of who we are. - Promo bumpers and-- - Yes. And we have a couple that Jeff from "Bothers and Things" did from us from like-- - Earlier. - Yeah, a little bit ago. But we wrote something because we were thinking of doing some paid advertisement and going around and trying to widen our bass, our fan base, as it were. - Well, to be fair, there's also in a way that I've been falling down in self promotion. There's a number of podcasts who have at various times asked us, "Hey, do you got a promo you wanna play?" - Yeah, and I was like, "Yeah, sometime. "We're totally gonna do that." - Yeah. - So this was it. I told JRD to get off his lazy butt, 'cause you know, he's always just on the floor, scratching and anyways, not really, 'cause that was a joke, but anyways. Cricket, the bumpers. - Okay, the bumpers. So yeah, so you wrote JRD, you wrote three different bumpers and three different styles. And then we asked three different of our listeners and people that were general fans of-- - Three of our pod friends. - To record those, just the audio, like the speaking portion, and then we're gonna add music and effects to it. So I sent out three emails and it was like half an hour before we sat down to record the episode and I've already got two responses. And from those people, not even just responses, but I do have all of their audio and in various forms, like they're reading them in different styles. - And they are. - Within those styles. - And they are fantastic. - They are so good. And it's really funny because Jeff from "Bothers" and things, we got him to do one for us. And he's just reading it a whole bunch of times doing it in different styles. And I get into this one so deeply, I'm thinking it's like the best one, yeah. And I'm like, oh, yeah, it's kind of solemn, it's kind of, you know, like he's getting people into it. And just about, like he's just about finished saying the piece, he stops himself and, you know, cracks himself 'cause he's like, oh, this one's crap. Okay, I'm gonna try this again. I'm like, no, it was so good. But anyways, they were all so fabulous. And I have lots to choose from, but I thought it was pretty funny. I was having a good laugh with his recorded self. - So. - But yeah, all the love being sent this way to help us promote and do it freely. I really appreciate it. So hopefully I will get all the audio in. I will mix it up at some audio, make it sound pretty. And hopefully this time next week, I will have finished bumpers. That's pretty exciting. - Awesome, I'll definitely announce it on the blogs. Keep an eye out. And now as for the... - The art of narration. - You know what, I don't have so much narration today, but just last week, I believe, well, last weekend, was a teacapf, the Toronto Comic Arts Festival. - Which we couldn't go to. - No, I couldn't go to it. And I'm really kind of disappointed about that, 'cause three of my favorite comic artists were there. - Soon, soon, we will be able to get you to these things. - Yes. - But I was pretty disappointed to not see them, but I wanted to mention them on the blog. They've put up a couple of posts on their own sites about what they had done at the convention, but Erica Moen, she was one of my favorites, and she was there. She's the comic artist of Darr and the more recent Bucko, which I'm hoping J.R.D will put that in the show notes. - Absolutely, 'cause she does fantastic work. - Everybody has to see Darr and Bucko at some point, I think. And of course, there was Dylan McOnus, and I don't know if I'm pronouncing the names right, but I think you might actually like one of his comics. It's called "Bightney," and it's like a comic vampire tale, but it's set right after the French Revolution. I think that would be pretty fun. - Yeah, that sounds great. - The third person I'm pretty disappointed about not seeing is I don't know if I'm gonna pronounce her name right, but Lucy Misley, I think. - Okay. - She does a lot of work with Erica Moen, but she has a lot of illustrations of her own and stuff, and I think I had shown a couple to you today, Jessica May, and she's a pretty awesome artist as well. - Very nice. Okay, well, just fire me some links and I'll put them all in the show notes. - I saw a poster she did today, and it was like an entire plot summary of one of the Harry Potter books, and it's just done in short little comic blueberries, and it was just fantastic. I love Harry Potter. - Okay, very nice. - So they should not be nice. Yeah, they shouldn't come back and you shouldn't go see them. - Yeah. - Well, thanks for the recap. (laughing) The TKAF recap. - Yes. - We should give a big shout out to Jim of relicradio.com. - Hi, Jim of relicradio.com. - Jim! - That's a good shout out. - Provides hosting for the blog, where you can find the show notes. - Thank you. - And where he also provides hosting for the Wiki, which you should dig your claws into and dispense information. - Yes, please. - If you have comments, questions, or suggestions, you can find us at skinner.fm, actually over flashbulb.com.
