We were joined tonight by our great friend Jake Wheat.  Jake tells us all about the CD “Stomp Out Cancer Volume 2: Hope” which all proceeds benefit Stomp Out Cancer and Ewing’s Sarcoma Research.  You will be hearing songs from the CD featured on our Independent Music Breaks over the next few months.  While Jake was here, we also talked about his other project, ‘The Waverly Hills Sanatorium Audio Experience” and “Stomp Out Cancer: Volume 1“.  It was an incredible hour and we hated for it to be over.  Actually, when we stopped recording, we kept talking for quite a while afterwards.

Before Jake joined us, we talked about the new ABC series ‘Happy Town‘ which we plan on covering when it starts up on April 30th.  You can watch the first 14 minutes on ABC’s site.  It looks GREAT!!!  We can’t wait.  We’re planning to make it our guilty pleasure this year.

As we mentioned, tonight’s Independent Music Breaks were from the CD “Stomp Out Cancer Volume 2: Hope” which you can find on iTunes.  We played the songs ‘Stronger’ by Public Symphony and ‘Emory’ by Heros and Madmen.  Remember, all proceeds from all the CDs benefit Ewing’s Sarcoma research.

Thanks for listening!

Another awesome love show! We had a blast chatting with the Spookchattie’s tonight. Another name has been proposed… The Spooky Groupies. I like em both.  We intro the Spooktalkular YouTube channel.  So far, only the Mothman Hayride video from us…  But look for more.  We also talk about our format change of moving towards more serious paranormal topics.

Where to start, it was a busy episode. We started out with a cool interview with Alex Price who played Gilbert on the hit BBC series ‘Being Human‘.

From there, we head into our television coverage with a surprising newcomer this week, ‘South Park’ and the episode ‘Dead Celebrities‘ where our paraplumbers Jay and Grant get parodied in awesome form. You really know you’ve arrived when you’re spoofed on ‘South Park’! From there, we hit into ‘Ghost Hunters’, ‘Destination Truth’ and ‘Mystery Quest’. We also discuss the new show ‘Ghost Lab’. So far, we agree that we really like the personalities of the brothers but it’s really nothing new as far as format. We’ll discuss it more in the coming weeks.

We also talk about the upcoming ‘Ghost Adventures’ Live event at the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum where the ‘Ghost Adventures’ Crew will be spending the night on October 30 starting at 8:00PM ET. Looks awesome!

Our Independent Music Break featured the song ‘Now or Never’ from the band AG Silver!  Awesome sound and they seem like great people also.  Please support Independent Media of all forms!

We wrap up the show with a recap of ‘Harper’s Island’ episode 11, Splash.  The Cal/Chloe death scene is the best in the series!  The song used for that scene is ‘Letters From The Sky’ by Civil Twilight.  It’s availible for free for a limited time from iTunes.

Well, this week is a bit of a little experiment.  We give a live show a shot and, no surprise here, we screw it up pretty good.  We knew we would which is why we didn’t promote it a lot.  Hope you like it.  We do an intro about the show in case someone is on who isn’t familiar with the show.  Sadly, Frank ended up going to Waverly Hills Sanitorium without Laura so he tells us about it.  We do a quick discussion of the movies ‘Orphan‘ and ‘Bone Dry‘.  For television this week, Laura tells us about ‘Ghost Hunters International’, ‘Monster Quest’, ‘Ghostly Encounters’ and ‘Psychic Investigators’.

We round the show out with an awesome interview with John Warfield from the DC Metro Area Ghostwatchers.  John tells us about the DCMAG group and their investigations of the Historic Jordan Springs.

Hmmm, after I look at it, the show was actually pretty good….

Next week should be a little more normal with our usual Classic Cinema and a treat for our Independent Music Break.  We’re planning on shooting for a live show on Tuesday August 18th at 8:00PM Eastern.  We should have the chat room up and running so we hope to see you then.

We’re running a little late but better late than never, right? This is what we call a quickie or better yet, a nooner. We take a few minutes to talk about the current status of ‘UFO Hunters’. Be sure to head over to www.ufomag.com and check out how you can support ‘UFO Hunters‘ by signing the petition. While you’re at it, check out the effort over at www.backtofrankblack.com.

It’s Prize Day!!! Since this was the first episode of August, it’s time to announce the winners of the awesome signed M.R. Sellars books! The first book ‘Harm None’ went to Patrick from Missouri! The second book, ‘Never Burn a Witch’ goes to Valora from California and the third book ‘Perfect Trust’ goes to Emily from Canada! That wasn’t enough so we decided to throw in a bonus prize of a copy of the Jake Wheat CD ‘The Waverly Hills Sanatorium: Audio Experience‘. The winner of it is Bill from Canada!

Awesome Contest! Thanks to everyone for entering and thanks for listening to Spooktalkular.

We round out the show with a great interview with Tim McGee from over at www.freakcentral.net. This was actually Laura’s first solo interview. She did a great job.

Just a show note. I believe that we are going to give a live show a shot next Monday night August 10th at 8:00PM Eastern Time. We hope you’ll join us then!
