YDKF Episode 254: On the Radio

1 Reply

Even as a little kid I used to spin records in my bedroom and talk between each one as if I were a DJ. Being a DJ wasn’t in the cards for me but fortunately I ended up on the radio a few times anyway. Join me on this episode as I talk about all the times I was on the radio, from winning tickets for giving my middle school the “Royal Flush” on KJ-103 to winning Barry Manilow concert tickets just a few years ago. This episode is packed with fun radio-friendly stories — check it out!

Kooky Tales S02E02: Cryogenics

2 Replies

Can human beings escape death by freezing their bodies? The good news is hundreds of people have been successfully frozen. The bad news is, none of them have been successfully thawed out. Join Rob and Susan as they discuss cryogenics. Was Walt Disney really frozen and placed underneath the Pirates of the Caribbean ride? Was Ted Williams frozen against his will? What happens when people with good intentions and no money start freezing bodies by putting them in boxes full of dry ice? What happens when a body is brought out of cryogenic hibernation? Find out the answers to these questions and more on this episode of the Kooky Tales Podcast!

YDKF Episode 253: Hoopz

I can’t lie. This episode is really about basketball. I just named it “Hoopz” because I was afraid nobody would listen to it. In this episode I talk about some of the basketball video games I played as a kid, playing basketball in my neighborhood as a kid, memories of my kids playing basketball at the YMCA, how Oklahoma City tried to steal the Hornets from New Orleans, and how we successfully stole the Supersonics from Seattle.

Sprite Castle 107: Toy Bizarre

Toy Bizarre by Activision (1984) is a lost C64 gem that looks similar to the original Mario Bros. platform game but adds just enough depth, action, and strategy to elevate it to a higher platform. Precent robotic toys from taking over the toy store while avoiding Hefty Helga in this classic action platform game for the Commodore 64, TOY BIZARRE!
