Marshal & I Talk About Hitchcock's ROPE

Rish here.  Over on "Outfield Excursions," where Marshal Latham and I talk about movies, we recently talked about Alfred Hitchcock's 1948 film ROPE, discussing its plot and the single-take style.

I hope people get a kick out of these episodes, because Marshal really works hard on the production, including fun bent Creative Commons licenses at the end.

Rish Narrates "Sandy" on Drabblecast

Rish here.  It had been a loooooong time since the lovely Norm Sherman had asked me to lend my voice to his grand podcast, the Drabblecast.  Somehow, I missed that this episode had dropped.

It was part of a Drabblecast trifecta (all about keeping your friends close and your enemies closer), so I missed that my reading of "Sandy" by Bruce McCallister was part of it.  This story is about a human boy who befriends an alien girl that goes to his school, and was so similar (in concept, if not execution) to the story I wrote with Big a few years back, "Last Contact," that I feel like that's the reason I got picked to do the narration. 

Check it out at this link and decide for yourself.

Rish & Big Do Voices On "Til Death Do We Meet"

You may be interested in hearing our appearance (along with Renee Chambliss, Gino Moretto, Bria Burton, Julie Hoverson, and Marshal) in "Til Death Do We Meet" over at the Journey Into... podcast.

It's a story written by Marshal Latham that takes place in Rish's "Dead & Breakfast" universe, about an Idaho B&B that has unique properties.  In this one, Kara and Dustin are newlyweds and head over to Vernon, Idaho for their honeymoon night . . . which turns out to be special for other reasons also.

Marshal had a lot to say in there (it's a long story), but got together with Rish this week to record a chat about it, in case you want a REALLY deep dive.  That episode (of the Rish Outcast) should be out in early June.

Rish Narrates "Like A Bird From The Sky" on StarShipSofa

Didn't think it would happen either.

So, I perform the story "Like A Bird From The Sky" by Alexis Ames.  A cool name.

I like this story quite a bit.  It takes place during The Great War, and I wasn't sure whether to do the main character as American or English (so I did it both ways, and decided that, technically, he should be English).  The only American character is a man who died the year before, and I tried to do a very distinctive voice for him, pressing a wheeze into my down-home country accent, speaking a little bit like my father did after his surgery, right before he died.  Audio enables me to create a whole array of characters--it's kind of a superpower.

Anyway, check it out at this LINK.

"Daughter Death Star Day" on Delusions of Grandeur

Rish here.  This month, if I can get it done, we'll have two episodes of Delusions of Grandeur.  But the first is right here, where Marshal Latham and I talk about "Clone Wars," the ROGUE ONE audio commentary (plague edition!), McClunky, and I present my lil Star Wars sketch "Daughter Death Star Day."

In it, I imagine the hilarity of Bring Your Daughter To Work Day on Tarkin's space station.  Of course, your hilarity mileage may vary.

Rish and Marshal Talk "Something Wicked This Way Comes"

Over at the Journey Into... podcast, Marshal Latham has posted another of those Outfield Excursions episodes.  In this one, we talk about the 1983 Walt Disney adaptation of Ray Bradbury's SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES.

We don't do a lot of these shows, but it's always a pleasure to get together with Marshal and talk movies.

Check it out HERE.

TGMG 235: Writers Conference Call 2: The Next Step

It's the Rish Outcast/That Gets My Goat crossover! Continuing their discussion about the writers conference Rish went to (Part One can be found HERE), Big and Rish talk about cover art, not giving up, being inspired, and the Four Yorkshiremen.
