What is a Palooza? It sounds like an episode of Kick-Ass Mystic Ninjas – – or what every other fking podcast in creation tries to be – – but it’s not.
We choose a film (or book or whatever) and rally around it for one dedicated episode full of opinions, reactions, discussion, original fanfic or artwork, or whatever comes up. Deadpan-style – – so no, it’s nothing like the 8,000,000 other podcasts that talk about geek culture stuff.

Sorry it’s a little late.

Conversation reboot.

There will (probably) be a release of the audio recorded for this week. Just not right now.

Goodnight, mush.

Apparently there’s some big new sci-fi Space Track movie out – and people had expressed a desire to be able to comment freely. So -here’s a place to talk Star Trek: The Motion Picture, if you want. I’d advise against reading these comments if you don’t want any movie spoilers. Cue Ogre sound effect.

Movie Reactions ——- with Spoilers.

We’re going to be getting together soon to talk the Watchmen graphic novel for a near-future Deadpanpalooza episode.
This is the best place to post ideas and suggested points, topics, and observations for the upcoming Deadpan Internet Cool Kid Watchmania Analysis Discussion.

There are no restrictions on the Watchmen and Watchmania topics discussed here. Be warned, if you haven’t read the book – – spoilers ahead.

Wow.

Rick Stringer and the crew at Variant Frequencies have rounded up a number of voice talents to star in the podcast audio production of my short story, “Creature of God”.
Voices: Heather Welliver, Kreg Steppe, John Cmar, Matt Wallace, J.C. Hutchins, Chris Lester, Seth Harwood, Neil Stringer, Scott Sigler, and Rick Stringer.
I am humbled and honored by the wonderful treatment they’ve shown “Creature”. The direct link to the story is here:

This also happens to be their 3-year anniversary episode, so I’m doubly honored and humbled. Congratulations to Variant Frequencies for 3 years of stellar audio work.

CANCELED – Sorry. I wouldn’t have advertised if I’d have known. . . .
I’m told my music was excellent – the patron and staff reception was enthusiastic – but that the Wine Bar is not going to be paying for any more music. Oh well. Sorry, I hope you hadn’t made plans.

(Here’s the Fired Up press release. I hope you can make it.)
