This week, I get to talk to the director of Bikini Girls on Ice, Geoff Klein. I reviewed the movie a couple weeks back — visit its web site.

I got a Voicemail of Death from Evil Nate, and Brian in Colorado sent in this week’s “Review of Beers.”

Articles I talk about . . .

I review the movie Diary of a Bad Lad, which is arriving in the UK on DVD on June 28, 2010. Check the film out at its official web site.

Go listen to The 13 Skulls podcast, where the host TJ talks about the unexplained. Definitely worth subscribing to!

Original Music: From my old podcast (Podcast M). “Short Long Long Short Long Wait”

This week I’m joined by Crash and Russy from the horror rock band Boy Eats Gurl. You can listen to them and find out more about them on their web site, on their MySpace page, and on their Facebook page.

Don’t forget to send your 500-word zombie flash fiction in for the contest by July 4.

I’ll tell you all about my adventures in going to see Phish this past weekend in Ohio. You’ll hear a lot of Voicemails of Death from a lot of wonderful people. I review the movies Army of Darkness (1993) and the upcoming DVD release of Resurrecting the Streetwalker (2009). I talk about a few news articles that caught my attention, as well as bringing you brand new original music.

Phish – Blossom, Cuyahoga Falls, OH 6-12-10

Of all the bands I’ve gone out to see throughout my life — starting with the Pittsburgh stop of They Might Be Giants’ Apollo 18 tour when I was 15 — Phish is the most wonderful, consistent group I’ve seen. Even if you just listen to any of their readily-available live recordings, you’ll hear that they strive to stretch the bounds of their music and deliver new experiences to their audience. And to rock.

Last night was a fantastic Phish show. The highlights for me were “Sample in a Jar,” “Mike’s Song” segued into “Weekapaug Groove,” “Character Zero,” and “The Squirming Coil” as their encore/closer. I always get chills when Page pounds out the last bars of that one.

I took all these pictures on my Blackberry Storm, so the quality sucks on some of them.

The crowd was thick, hot, and impatient. Bottlenecks going in, and worse bottlenecks trying to get out afterward.

The weatherman called for scattered thunderstorms, but it never rained until well after the show. While I’m glad that we didn’t get dumped on while Phish played, I was actually praying for the rains to come and alleviate the humidity. I was coated in sweat the whole time.

Phish has the best light show. Period. Chris Kuroda is a brilliant lighting designer, and is as much a part of the band as any of the four playing on stage.

Balloon Guy. This hippie kept running through the crowd with ornate balloon animals, and seemed to really like running around the area we were standing in.

We’re all raising awareness this week about all the awareness-raising going on.

I talk about the Eric S. Brown and David Dunwoody Zombie Flash Fiction Contest, and how awesome it is. I encourage you all to read Bryan Wolford’s first serial novel, 48 Pieces. I make a few comments about the final episode of Lost. Also, I bring up the Twitter confrontation that went down earlier this week. Fun stuff! I tried the beer that supposedly tastes like pot: Hazed & Infused Dry-Hopped Ale by Boulder Beer Company. Spooky Bill called in this week’s single voicemail.

And listen closely, as I reveal how my parents tell me they decided on my name.

Three movie reviews this week: Bikini Girls on Ice (2010), Kill Your Idols (2004), and Dead Moon Rising (2007).

My original music for you this week is another cover. I owe Creedence Clearwater Revival and John Fogerty a huge apology for my version of “Bad Moon Rising.”

BrownDunwoodyContestOn episode 3 of the podcast, I talked with Eric S. Brown about holding some sort of contest. Amazing author David Dunwoody has joined in the fun! So now I present to you the Eric S. Brown and David Dunwoody Zombie Flash Fiction Contest.

Here’s what you gotta do:
