EPISODE 0.031: MOTHER KNOWS BEAST
Episode 0.031: Mother Knows Beast
(43.5 MB; 1:35:08 MIN)
It's Mothers' Day, and I'm being forced to spend it in darkest Slumgullia, where Despicable Manor is. Weirdness abounds as Doc tries to locate Mother Despicable (despite Mrs. Harridan's attempts to thwart him), mostly by leaving me to fend off the love-starved Miss Harply, Mother Despicable's hired help, and to get squished by Mrs. Harridan's illegitimate behemoth son, Peasley. In the meantime, you'll get to listen to episodes of Suspense, Crisis and The Mysterious Traveler dealing with creepy old ladies. Taliesin discusses the maternal role in vampire cinema, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires.

EPISODE 0.030: VENGEANCE BEYOND THE GRAVE
Episode 0.030: Vengeance Beyond The Grave
(39.6 MB; 1:26:30 MIN)
Bernie's Video Rental has a horror rarity I've been looking for, but when I get the wrong movie everybody assumes because I'm dead I've returned from the grave to seek vengeance. The nerve! While I try in vain to convince everybody I just want to get my movie and go home, you get to listen to tales of real vengeance beyond the grave. Checkout these tales from The Inner Sanctum, Lights Out and The Strange Dr. Weird. Also check out the first in a sporadic series of interviews with sci-fi and horror musicians as I interview Pete Kellers of No They Do. Taliesin talks about vampiric vengeance, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires.

EPISODE 0.029: HIM, ROBOT
Episode 0.029: Him, Robot
(45.7 MB; 1:40:01 MIN)
Robots drive me crazy! All I wanted to do was order a pizza and what happens? A robot goes crazy and tries to kill me. To top that off, killer robots from the future travel to the past to save me or kill me, depending on which one you're talking about. While I attempt to avoid being invalidated, we listen to killer robot tales from Theater 5, Dimension X and 2000 Plus, as well as listening to robot songs from Bent Bolt & The Nuts and No They Do. Taliesin talks about vampirism and robots and what crappy movies they make, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires. Doctor Despicable isn't in this one. Nope. Wasn't invited.

I've been so busy lately I have to do this podcast from work. Strangely enough, it's a work-themed podcast as well!

Taliesin talks about vampirism in the workplace, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires. Doctor Despicable eats a whole pie for lunch.

Episode 0.027: Cars For Alarm
(41.9 MB; 1:31:32 MIN)
Who knew vehicular homicide was that bad? I have to attend a driving school for people who habitually commit vehicular homicide while you get to listen to vehicular homicide-themed OTR. Check out The Creaking Door episode "Death On The Road", Theater 5's "Hit And Run" and the Inner Sanctum tale "You Could Die Laughing", as well as an excerpt from the driving safety video "Tomorrow's Drivers", narrated by Jimmy Stewart. Rock out to The Munsters "Frankenstein Had A Hot Rod Car" and The Ghouls "Little Old Lady From Transylvania" while you run over people in your own neighborhood. Taliesin dishes up a Zombina and the Skeletones tune while giving you information on the upcoming Mis-fest, then gives us a Taliesin's Top 3 discussing how vehicles play a part in the vampire genre, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires.

(45 MB; 1:38:27 MIN)
Though well-meaning, Dr. Von Martinez whacks Taliesin and I in the head, stuffs us in the trunk and drives to Transylvania - Transylvania, Louisiana, that is. We don't find vampires, but we do find trouble, thanks again to Dr. Von Martinez. The podcast itself, however, is stuffed like a bloodsucking tick with vampire-related audio. Listen to Inner Sanctum's "Undead", Wade Denning's "A Trip To Transylvania", The Witch's Tale episode "Graveyard Mansion", Nightfall's "Carmilla" and a handful of vamire film trailers. Taliesin tells us everything you ever wanted to know about "Carmilla" but were afraid to ask whilst I get the holy heck beaten out of me, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires.

(95.3 MB; 1:44:08 MIN)
Filthy filthy germs! Blecch! Doctor Despicable invents germs that turn people into were-pugs, but some germs just kill. We have stories from The Clock, Tales Of Mystery And Imagination and Suspense that prove it. We also have another Flights Of Fright, which has no disease in it that we know of. Taliesin offers us disease-ridden vampires in Taliesin's Top 3, courtesy of Taliesin Meets The Vampires.
A new addition to the podcast is the button below - the podcasts are now being uploaded onto the blog instead of hotlinked to a file on the Zombie Astronaut site - this should alleviate the iTunes issues. In a few cases, the file linked by the title above will be of a slightly higher quality. If the file is listed as larger than 100 MB in the above description, the file you can download below will be smaller than 100 MB, as it has to for me to upload it here. You might also find the link above doesn't have a file yet - that's because the link below uploads faster than my FTP program does for the link above. Now that I've completely confused you, have fun listening!
