***** WARNING *****  Please pay attention to the graphic content warning at the beginning of the show.  This is not one of our kinder/gentler shows so please consider yourself warned.  Grab the headphones as you see fit.

Ustream was toast tonight so our apologies to everyone who had joined us for the live show.  I will be looking for streaming hosts this week.  Well, the 2010 9th Annual Mothman Festival is finished and we had a blast (with one exception).  Join us as we recap the good, the bad and the ugly.  Our hope is that after this show, we’ll be invited back to host again because, all things said, we did have fun and love the festival.

Our Classic Cinema tonight featured the movie “Fire In the Sky” based on the true story of Travis Walton.  Check it out, we’re sure you’ll like it.

The Independent Music break featured more sounds from the album Stomp Out Cancer: Musician’s Fight Ewing’s Sarcoma Presents – HOPE.  Tonight’s song was by The Sheds and is titled “Only Way Out Is Through”. It was written for a friend of the band that was going through chemo.

It was a little harsher show tonight than normal but, not as bad as if we had done one last Sunday night.  We hope you enjoy.

I did change the bitrate on this one to try to make it a bit smaller.  Normally we encode at 64bits.  Tonight’s show was encoded at 32.  Let me know if it was too low of a bitrate.

We are back and slowly recovering from hosting the speaker forums at the 9th Annual Mothman Festival.  Amazing time overall with one downside.  Think Paradiva.  Adding to the amazing time was when our great friend Jake Wheat, his partner Craig, his friend Greg and friend Kim all came down to hang with us on Sunday.  Jake posted a great blog entry in his usual rich style.  ;)  Check it out, you’re sure to enjoy.  Plus, just in case you’ve ever wondered what Laura and I look like, Jake has pictures.  lol  Be sure to join us Sunday night for a full recap of the good, the bad and the ugly.

Wow, 65 of these crazy things  now.  Who would have ever thought it?  We spend the first part of the show talking about the Mothman Festival which we will be attending next weekend.  We briefly talk about the new season of Ghost Hunters and Frank’s new approach to Ghost Hunting.  This was prompted by a podcast with Jeff Belanger.  Jeff also hosts a podcast of his own called 30 Odd Minutes.

After the break, we talk about the parody Taintlight.  Funny flick making fun of everyone’s favorite vamp series.  Free on Netflix streaming, think ‘Vampires Suck’ without the budget.  For Classic Cinema this week, we take an early look at the 2002 movie ‘Below’.  Another great movie free on Netflix streaming.

Our Independent Music was from the album Stomp Out Cancer: Musician’s Fight Ewing’s Sarcoma Presents – HOPE.  The song was Heroes & Madmen:Emory.  Please support Independent Music and especially this album.  It really is for such a great cause.

Remember, no show next weekend but we’ll be back in two weeks with our Mothman Festival recap.

Welcome back to season 3.  We kicked it off big time tonight.  We talked about our hosting the speaking forums for the 9th Annual Mothman Festival in the beautiful Point Pleasant, WV.  We sprinkled in a bit of spooky news and then topped the show off with a good bit of movies.  The movies we covered were Inception, Vampires Suck, The Last Exorcism and our Classic Cinema Event Horizon.

For a treat, we also talked about the film “Ghosts Don’t Exist” which is due to be released Tuesday the 7th.  We had some of the creative team from GDE on back in October so it was so incredible to get a sneak peek at the film which was so worth the wait.  Great film, great story, beautifully shot.  This isn’t an Independent Film, it’s an Independent Treat!  Grab a copy today, pre-order at Amazon or pick it up at Best Buy on Tuesday.  You won’t be disappointed.

From the WAY TOO MUCH department, a warning, parts of this episode aren’t exactly safe for work.  And here’s why…  For Classic Cinema this week, we talk about the 1997 film Event Horizon staring Laurence Fishburne and Sam Neill.  Let’s just say we went a little overboard on our discussion of Laurence’s Daughter’s newest film, “Montana Fishburne: An A-List Daughter Makes her XXX Debut“.  Sorry Laurence.  We still love ya man, and as a father myself, I can feel for you.  With that said, it should in no way take anything away from “Event Horizon”.

Our Independent Music break this week was from the Stomp Out Cancer Volume 2 CD: Hope.  Public Symphony (London): Stronger.
