But wait, there's more! This time we jump into the swamp with the plastic bag leech monsters in Attack of the Giant Leeches performed by the Schlock Audio Theatre. Then we chat a bit with Charles Pratt, co-creator of Schlock Audio. Get your audio goggles readjusted and prepare to bask in the schlock.

Diving back into the Schlock Audio Theatre archives, we visit with Charles Pratt, co-creator of Schlock Audio, play their treatment of Ed Wood Jr.'s infamous "Plan 9 from Outer Space" and hear Charles' comments afterward. Be sure to adjust your audio goggles - and may the CHEESE be with you.

The "Ed Wood Jr" of Audio Drama is featured in this podcast: Judson Fountain. In the late 1960's Judson took it upon himself to produced radio dramas for "radioland". He pressed them to vinyl and sent them to area radio stations. Not unlike Florence Foster Jenkins it's the passion of the artist, not the skill level that gives these pieces a curious appeal.

A new feature called MAD-R which stands for "Modern Audio Drama Revisited". First we listen to Colossus of New York produced by Schlock Audio Theatre and Columbia Audio Theatre around 2004. Then we speak with co-creator Charles Pratt about the work and about Schlock Audio Theatre in general.
