Episode 32: Billy Stark
Billy Stark’s pre-Kilmarnock career saw him win multiple major trophies in Scotland before he joined Celtic - testament to the quality of the game in general and of the midfielder specifically. So when, in 1990, Billy agreed to be part of the Jim Fleeting revolution at the club with big plans for the future, much was expected. Yet it did not work out as planned. A serious of injuries restricted his involvement and effectiveness. The real Billy Stark story begins on his return to the club, having spent a year coaching with Hamilton. As Tommy Bu...

Episode 1454 - NYCC: Sarah Gordon!
Jimmy went to New York Comic Con (NYCC) last week and got about 12 interviews and 1 press room. Producer Joe even got an interview in! In this episode, you'll hear from the "Britain's Queen of gothic folk horror" Sarah Gordon. Our mutual pal Kieron Gillen bestowed that moniker upon Sarah and he is so right. Jimmy had met (well re-met) Sarah last year in the UK at the Thought Bubble festival but only recently read her work. (That she had kindly gifted to him. BAD JIMMY!). VICIOUS CREATURES is one of the most incredible and beautiful graphic novels he has...

Episode 31: Iain McCulloch
A huge fans’ favourite of the mid-1970s, local boy Iain McCulloch did the hard graft to make it in the game. From an early narrow escape, signing a contract with a club he couldn’t travel to play for, through years working as a heating engineer, the midfielder’s father played a crucial role in guiding him. For Iain, being the best he could be was the focus. His pride at signing for Kilmarnock is clear, as is his fondness for the support who crowned him Player of the Year. www.killiehistories.com/iainmcculloch

Episode 30: Jimmy Clark
Synonymous with the club across several decades in numerous roles, Jimmy Clark is perhaps best known as the trusted first-team coach when Kilmarnock lifted the Scottish Cup in 1997. A tactician with a focus on the defensive side of the game, it was his set piece plotting which set the platform for Paul Wright’s winner on that sunny day in May. Jimmy's story is much, much more than those five years with Bobby Williamson and Gerry McCabe. A supporter since the 1950s, he fulfilled a dream when he became a key part of the early 1980s Killie mi...

Episode 29: Kevin McGowne
Kevin McGowne chose just the right time to join his local team. When St Johnstone made the central defender available for transfer in 1996, Alex Totten swooped. A lot was packed into his six years: two cup finals, a 1997 winner’s medal, and numerous European campaigns. Good in the air and on the deck, his sterling performances alongside Ray Montgomerie made all the difference in the late 1990s as the club went from strength to strength. But it could have been very different, with time spent away from the game as a young player, followed by a...

Episode 28: Kenny Shiels
Kenny Shiels will forever be associated with one of the most special of moments in Kilmarnock Football Club’s history: in 2012, he led the club to its fifth and still most recent trophy. The League Cup success should not have come as a surprise considering the manager’s track record of surprising the favourites on several occasions in his career in Northern Ireland. It was an inauspicious start to life in Ayrshire. Coming into the club as Mixu Paatelainen’s assistant, surgery determined that he would set up his first training session on crutches. Things improv...

Episode 27: John Bourke
Dundee United’s loss was certainly Killie’s gain. After an incredibly difficult year with ‘The Tangerines’, both parties decided to cut their losses and part ways. Promotion-seeking Kilmarnock - at that stage a part-time club - moved fast to secure the tall striker with an impressive one-in-two league strike rate. John Bourke quickly became a fans’ favourite: ‘The King of Rugby Park’, no less. His presence and outball produced 21 league goals as promotion back to the top flight was achieved in 1979. Here, John discusses his immense pride at representing Killie, his style of play, the players wh...

Episode 26: Stuart Findlay
After an underwhelming loan spell in 2015, few Kilmarnock fans would have anticipated the next chapter in Stuart Findlay’s story. Two years later, his “stubborn” nature led the defender to give Ayrshire a second shot. And it proved a wise decision. In the following four seasons, Stuart was at the heart of some of the most memorable moments in the club’s modern history. And his relationship with the club did not end with a life-changing move to the USA. www.killiehistories.com/stuartfindlay

Episode 25: Mavis Reilly
From early career doubts, and disenchantment as a struggling left back, Mark ‘Mavis’ Reilly reflects on the journey to midfield linchpin of a Kilmarnock team who enjoyed a decade of 1990s success. As was the case for many of his teammates, the inspirational words of Tommy Burns set him on the right path. On the 25th anniversary of Kilmarnock FC's third Scottish Cup triumph, the players' player gives an insight into the win, and the dedication required to make it to the top of the professional game.

Episode 24: Garry Hay
Lifting a trophy for the club you support is surely the ultimate ambition of every player. For Garry Hay, that long-held dream became a reality for Kilmarnock in 2012, starring in the club’s - as yet - only Scottish League Cup success. Patience and pragmatism were as much part of the left back’s emergence as his wicked deliveries from out wide. Watching fellow youth team players Alex Burke and David Bagan’s promotion to the first team in 1997 - and himself being a part of the iconic Scottish Cup celebrations of that season - only strengthened his re...

Episode 23: Stuart Layburn
Stuart Layburn played just seven times for Kilmarnock yet his story spans some of the club’s greatest moments. From a family of Killie supporters, he followed the team home and away from a young age before becoming a reserve team player in the early 1960s. To be a part-time player in that era was both a blessing and a curse. Stuart was part of a squad which made a serious challenge for honours in the first half of the decade. Yet he knew that any opportunities in the first team would only ever be fleeting at be...

Episode 22: Flight from Bacau
A caper in the 1969/70 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup presented Scotland’s oldest professional club with some of their most resilient European adversaries. Windswept, militaria-laden passport officers flanked by lines of fighter jets, a henchman goalkeeper specialising in lethal pull-and-punch handshakes, and a referee who “didn’t see nothing” led our adventurers to a chilly denouement: a game of football’s desperate, wheezing, grasping attempt to break free of its predictable fate. Kilmarnock Football Club elder statesmen, Jimmy Cook, Ross Mathie and George Maxwell look back at the adventures of a lifetime. w...

Episode 21: Bobby Williamson
As both player and manager, Bobby Williamson played a key role in vital periods of Kilmarnock’s modern history. Signed to bring the tenacity, guile and, crucially, goals to the side chasing promotion back to the top flight, 1990 marked the start of a 12-year association with the club. Bobby’s on-field successes with the club include a famous winner at Ibrox Park and involvement in both the promotion-winning side of 1992-93 and the team which then secured Premier Division safety in a highly competitive league the following year. However, it is arguably Bobby Williamson’s manage...

A modest marksman with an eye for the big moments, Tom Brown’s rapid albeit belated rise from junior football in the summer of 1993 marked a new beginning. Following several ultimately unsuccessful attempts to realise his dream of professional status, it was another ‘TB’, the iconic Tommy Burns, who took a low stakes gamble (£160 per week low) by inviting Tom to train with the club for an extended trial period. Those battling qualities Killie fans came to admire in four successful years with the club secured a contract and a shot at Premier Division football. And wha...

During the pre-season training camp of 1999, he invited Freddie Dindeleux on trial with the carrot of a new-TV-deal-funded contract for the French defender, recently released by his boyhood team, Lille. Lacking pace and physicality, with not a word of English, his eventual induction to the Kilmarnock Football Club Hall of Fame would have seemed unlikely in that first summer. But after a slow start, Freddie began to win over team mates and supporters alike. After all, being able to run fast isn’t everything. Fr...

And the philosophy of the club was about to change significantly. New manager Mixu Paatelainen brought with him an approach to football that placed an emphasis on technicality, style, tactical awareness and, most importantly, entertainment. After a slow start, a 3-0 win at Tynecastle started the motor running. But by April 2011 it was all over. Mixu - soon to be named Manager of th...

Imaginary Worlds
The Year Without a Summer
June 16, 2016 is the 200th anniversary of the night Mary Shelley began to write, "Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus." Scholars have long speculated what Frankenstein can tell us about scientific hubris or "playing God." But Professors Gillen D'Arcy Wood and Ron Broglio think the book has just as much to say about how we adapt to "acts of God." In other words, Frankenstein was imagined in a year when the Earth's climate was thrown off balance and the weather was wildly unpredictable. Sound familiar? With biographer Charlotte Gordon and readings by Lily Dorment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit me...

Espeluznante semana de LO MAL. Empezamos con Forever Evil #3, que llegaba al momento de empezar a contar algo y se ha destapado como un número de relleno. La trama apenas avanza, David Finch está flojísimo... Mal, mal, mal. J.M. Strackzynski lanza nueva colección en Image llamada Protectors Inc. Perpetra el cómic al dibujo Gordon Purcell. Y ambos se llevan la mención a la pedorreta de la semana. Strac se copia a sí mismo y vuelve a contar la historia de un grupo de personas normales que sin saber cómo adquieren superpoderes y se lían a p...
