The EPIC conclusion of Mars Rescue!!
For no particular reason, I hereby plug the following podcasts:
http://sonicsociety.org
http://comedy4cast.com
The Batfry gang has been stranded on Mars for several years, now. Is it possible that they could be RESCUED?? And, if so, is this something any reasonable person would WANT to DO? I mean... really. Things have been pretty peaceful of late. Oh, well.
By the way, I'm trying an experiment. I've begun a "The Batfry" channel on Youtube. Yes, you can listen to this podcast and future podcasts (if this experiment works) on Youtube. Please schlep over there and see if the darn thing works.
By the way, again... when you search for "the Batfry", you may encounter some videos that involve me with some puppets. When these were taped, I never dreamed they would be posted for the world to see. I HATE seeing myself on video or in pictures. But its there, so I must deal with them. The guy who taped them is a REALLY nice guy and GREAT cinematographer in California. And, by and large, the videos are really kinda funny. BUT... I AM NOW ABOUT 60 POUND LIGHTER THAN I WAS WHEN THOSE WERE SHOT. No, really. I now actually weigh less than my drivers license says I weigh... and I LIED when I got THAT!
I would like to thank all the people who urged me to return to the Batfry. My life has calmed down to the point where I think I can produce two or three episodes a month. Maybe. I've missed this. And I'm glad to be back.
A star-studded stage show with comedy, music, and surprises! Guests include Justin Bieber, Sophia Vergara, and an extra special Star Wars star!!
The gang takes a classic radio show and skewers it with comments throughout. Original? No. But lots of fun!
This started out as a Christmas Special.... but I couldn't finish it in time for Christmas. So, I posted it right AFTER Christmas and called it a "Holiday Special". Bear with me, folks! I've been busy!
Enjoy.
THE SCIENCE SHOW!!
We discuss Higgs-Boson, Sting Theory, The Big Bang Theory, Parallel Universes, and, of course, the Curiosity Rover now on Mars!!
Quite the educational show for the kiddos! Maybe.
What if all the stuff we love so much had a PROHIBITION against them by the government? Hooo boy, that would be awful! Right? Right? But that could NEVER happen. Right?

By listening to my sister and me interacting, you'll get an idea of how my life was while growing up with her. Now, if only I could get my brother here at the same time... THAT would be a show!
