    074 - Radar DeBoard on Everything But The Skin
    Jan 28 2026
    Releasing a little late because of the situation in the United States this past weekend involving the murder of Alex Pretti. The beginning of this conversation, however, is creepily relevant, though, as it was recorded shortly after the murder of Renee Good, and Radar and I, still stunned, discuss the horrific implications.

    No worries, though! We do move on to talk about movies, TikTok, Instagram, evil witches, writing socially relevant horror, and his recent releases, The Violet Glow Of The Daytens and Everything But The Skin.

  • 071 - Joshua Ginsberg on Tales From The Dusty Tiger

    071 - Joshua Ginsberg on Tales From The Dusty Tiger
    Jan 4 2026
    Joshua Ginsberg is a writer of hauntings, ghost stories, and histories of Florida. We discuss those a little in this episode, but focus on his collection of short stories, Tales From The Dusty Tiger.

    This episode was nearly lost. I thought I had posted it, but what really happened was that the audio file survived in the cloud after my now old computer took a nose dive off a table and died. The video did not survive for whatever reason. So, somewhere along the line, I forgot to post it, even though I thought I had. Jeez....
