Prepare yourself for horror and surprisingly great radio reception!
Alan and Rob are guest-free and feeling loopy so we practiced for our upcoming live show by recording this week's episode on Twitch!

And if that isn't exotic enough for you, Rob and Alan discuss the amazing and futuristic world of laundry chutes.

Don't worry, mates, we don't do any accents this time, but we'll catch you on the flip-flop, homies! We've heard that's an extremely popular saying in Australia, btw. We start with a brief visit to the circus as Rob discovers that a dying art form is pretty much dying for a reason and then Alan interrupts "Radia Riddle".

"The Last of Mrs. Debrugh" (or "DeBrugh", which is how it is in the story but not the title or table of contents) is scary in the way a giant vat of mayonaisse is scary. Which is to say it's not, but it does make you feel uneasy. So strap yourself in for mild thrills in a story that cares as much about general pipe cleanliness as providing you chills!

If you demanded it vague and full of questionable motives, that is. "A Matter of Cash" is from Thrilling Adventures magazines' June, 1939 issue, where every adventure story takes place in an exotic locale (like China, Africa, or Holland) and features tough men with manly names (like Gunsmoke Enmity, Ochiri Death, or Holland). In addition to an exciting tale and a good deal of discussion about where to conceal compact sticks of dynamite, Rob and Alan also induct a new member into the I.T. Book Club.

Their motto: "We don't need a snappy name because we've got snappy stories!" What kind of hijinks can a sharp dressed bellhop get into on Broadway? We're not sure, because we can't figure out half the slang in this thing, but it's saucy and funny and also includes Rob having to read uncomfortable words like "throb". Shudder.

Straight from the summer, 1955 issue of Startling Stories comes the story of a (somewhat) smart house against a pair of (somewhat) bumbling thieves in the future!

From the January 1943 issue of Amazing Stories, "The Chameleon Man" by William P.

All set against the background of 1940s Paris, which - now that we think about - seems like a weird time to have a ball but... well, you'll see what happens. This week's genre: Romantiheist.
"Scrambled Yeggs" is from the anthology "Night Life Tales" Vol. 1, No. 19, and it's a bit risque on the face but not very titillating inside, but obviously we've added a bunch of sexiness just through our husky voices. So grab an a...2018-03-1347 min
