Prime Cell Phone salesman, Anime visionary, Internet publishing maven and Monorail PilotChad BowersChad Bowers has taken the road less traveled on his lifelong journey to find interesting things to do and survive on. He has sold cell phones and ended up creating a website, he’s directed anime films and found love, he’s worked in terrestrial radio and found the internet. All these things have added up to a wild and interesting career of internet oddities.

Chad was working in terrestrial radio when he fell into the task of making a website for the station during the Geocities era of internet content. This foray into creating something new and different made an impact on him.

Selling cell phones though was probably the most creative job he could have had at the time, even though saying it doesn’t seem right. It was through cell phone sales that he came up with his personal brand of internet strangeness, TITFOS, or The Incredible True Facts of Space. This houses his worse fears and craziest desires and has outlasted many others to be a definite stop for the world-weary and tormented internet traveler.

Streaming Pioneer, Filmmaker, crowdfunding inaugurate, Atari Homebrew evangelist and lead vocalsJames O’BrienJames O’Brien has worn many hats, but I think his best one is independent media producer. He embodies the passion and drive that anyone who wants to produce their own media should look up to.

Starting with Rant Radio, most likely the first 24/7 independent streaming radio station back in January 1999, onto Rant TV which did the same for video in 2003. His projects and passions for internet media were fierce and incredibly independent.

As James has moved through his hobby of creating media, it has led to a kind of dream gig as an independent filmmaker, where he still explores the world for projects that fit his interests.

Host, Guitarist, Bon Vivant and all around good guyPQ RibberPQ Ribber has a long history of creative merry-making, from audio to art, books to bands, PQ has given a creative spin to whatever interests him.

Having roots on “real” (terrestrial) radio, PQ takes that knowledge and puts it to good use on The Overnightscape Central each week, as he shepherds the listener through various other voices as they expound on the topic du jour.

He even protects the earth from outer space wackiness on the Quake Reversal Satellite. While strumming a tune with one of his various bands.
