Night Dangers. Ever since I heard this band a couple years ago, I’ve been hooked. Then Andrew Philp, the main Night Danger-er, sent me a copy of their soon-to-be-released full length record and whooooooo yeah, it was time for an interview. This Bobcast feautures an interview with Andrew about all kinds of stuff - music, mental health, the Midwest “sound”, who would win in a fight - Prince or Bob Stinson (that’s totally not in this episode besides they’re both dead how fucked do you think I am???) and more! Oh yeah, there are TWO ghost stories in this one as well, one by Andrew, one is a VERY SPECIAL GUEST (Hi Mono!). Music-wise, there’s a brand new Bobcast theme song by What Me Worry? and three Night Dangers songs - “All I Need”, “This Time” and “Let Myself Down Tonight”.

Canada is well known for hokey, poutine and cold weather. Eh? Yes, I also know Canada for Corner Gas and some of the best punk rock in the world (Anti-Queens, duh!). What about the ghosts and cryptids of our friendly neighbors to the north? Not content with another episode about Waverly or Whaley House, in this one, I turn to Gina and Victoria of Haunted History BC, those Canadian Mavens of Morbid Mayhem, for answers. We’ll talk about the sisters’ history in the paranormal, how they conduct investigations, their mascot, Onyx The Crow and more. The “more” being several stories of Canadian haunted places and cryptids!!! Good stuff, eh? Last “eh?” joke, I promise. Those Pennsylvanian Purveyors of PUNK, Advocaat, generously grace us with the song “Ghost” in this one, too. BOOOO, eh!!! Sorrrry about that.

Robyn Johnson has a very special family. Three generations of women that have experienced high strangeness in a multitude of ways. In this episode of the Bobcast, we’ll hear a little of Robyn’s strange and lovely family history and one particular paranormal event. A ghost story. Robyn’s ghost story.

Dude Vs. Food! Josh of Rad Girlfriend Records and The Raging Nathans isn’t one to back down from a challenge. In this case, Josh took on “The Big Texan” steak eating thing in Amarillo, Texas. Raging Nathans were on tour at the time this episode was released, kept seeing the billboards for The Big Texan on the I-40 and answered thr call. Here’s Josh’s story in all of it’s gory glory.

2021 is dead. Long live 2021? No. Long live the MUSIC of 2021, though. Especially the incredible selection of songs I played on The Bobcast in 2021. So here we go, let’s put the final stake in the heart of the worst year of recent memory - for so many of us, by listening to some RAD songs! We’re gonna count ‘em down, my favorite songs that were played on The Bobcast in 2021 from 10 to 1. Spolier Alert! Here’s the list of songs:

10 - Ship Thieves “Hercules Stomp”

9 - Ricky “Spare Me”

8 - Get Married “Astrozombies”

7 - Night Dangers “Another Nightmare”

6 - Airstream Futures “Cemetery Sparrow”

5 - Parker “Ruin My Life”

4 - The Lungs “Vizitant”

3 - No Small Children “Radio”

2 - Vudu Sister “The Girl Who Stood On A Grave”

The best of the best, the cream of the crop. Happy New Year and here’s to a much better 2022. Cheers, loves!

Welcome to the final episode in the “Ghost Stories” series! This one carries on the tradition of telling ghost stories during the Yuletide season with three tales of haunting encounters with the unknown. Grace and Vivi of The Ghosty Girlz, Pretty Fn Spooky Amanda Paulson and Craig Owens of Bizarre Los Angeles are your storytellers in this episode, plus, Ivy and Hannah of The Ghoulstrip Podcast will regale you with some ghost stories from Alcatraz.

Chicago! Upside down pizza! Hotdogs served with a baseball bat sized pickle! Kayne West? Sears Tower? What else? I say, who gives a rat’s ass about all that other stuff, the best thing outta Chicago since ever is Airstream Futures! This episode is an interview with the band plus two songs - “Brighter Blue” and “Faster Than You Know”. Once you listen to this band’s music, you’ll be hooked, just like me. Plus they’re super fun to drink with and sit around with on a Saturday in the park. I think it was the 4th of July? Ooops. Wrong CHICAGO band.

What would possibly make Halloween of 2021 more GRIM than a special episode all about the Brothers Grimm? Nothing! That’s why I did it! This is what you’ll get in this episode: A brand new Celluloid Catacombs with Carolyn Mauricette, this time she’s talking all about the 2005 confusion fest of a film starring Matt Damon and Heath Ledger. This edition of The Celluloid Catacombs is brought to you by Wicked Cat Clothing, the world’s finest horror, halloween and paranoral themed clothiers. Next, we’ll take a brief look at the history of the Brothers Grimm, then the stories. Oh, the stories. We’re going to talk about a few of the Grimm stories, with commentary by the author of the Webworld Trilogy and San Diego-based filmmaker, Ben Johnson. Ben’s going to tell the basic stories, as he remembers them and I’ll come in and fill in the GORY details. Finally, I’ll read the full gloriously ghoulish tale “The Robber Bridegroom”. Body parts, wicked murderers and talking birds. Perfect for Halloween! Music of the episode by Murder By Death with their rendition of the Sam The Sham and The Pharaohs classic “Little Red Riding Hood”, plus Austrailian punk rockers Bodyjar with the song “Fairytales”.
