THIS PROG: In the second of a new series of episode of chiastic improvised interviews, my guest is local improv practitioner and ruthless biochemical genius, Peter Robinson. We are once again joined by two interviewers who wield the tools of their trade at two interviewees. In the first, Osborn Black interviews Tayler Merrickson about his work as a surrogate test taker, and the supernatural implications of his skills. In the second interview, Randolph Martins turns his gaze on Maverick Studwick, creator of an amazing new form of origami cuisine. Don’t forget to leave feedback!

THIS PROG: The Coiled Spring Returns! In the first of a new series of episode of chiastic improvised interviews, my guest is local improv practitioner and father-to-be, Tim Shores. We are joined by two interviewers who wield the tools of their trade at two interviewees. In the first of two interviews, Homer Winslow hears from composer Jeffrey Peabody about his new musical piece based on the music of the very distant spheres. The conversation covers Soviet scientific endeavors, cerebral recordings and the vagaries of the baton. In the second interview, Kieran Granger has as his guest the explorer and friend of the avians Kenneth Isaacson, who wants to share possibly the most incredible discovery since Lemuria in 2011. Our new friends have an offer that may save us all! Don’t forget to leave feedback on what you think of our new direction. It’s good to be back.

THIS PROG: In the third and final of the three interviews I recorded on my recent trip to The Old Country, I talk to my old theatre buddy Andrew Candish, who is a lifelong fan of Doctor Who and part of one of the most popular and long running Whovian podcasts, The Ood Cast. I met Andrew and his Ood castmates Chris Alpha and Chris Sigma (sadly the Fourth Ood, Laura, couldn’t join us) at the National Theatre on London’s fashionable South Bank (right near the bookstalls under the bridge), and we talked Who, Trek, Wars, fans, and which were our favourite Who monsters. I’ve been a fan off and on of the eccentric Time Lord’s adventures since the Tom Baker days, but it was great to talk to folks whose love for the show has given rise to some of the most entertaining podcasting I’ve ever heard. Show Notes and Links The Ood Cast - not just the podcast, but comic strips and music too!

THIS PROG: In the second of three interviews I recorded on my recent trip to The Old Country, I talk to my much-missed friend, academic, blogger, activist and E-Learning Facilitator, Dr Mira Vogel. She stopped by my hotel in London’s fashionable Bloomsbury to talk about her work, her activism, and the world at large.

THIS PROG: In the first of three interviews I recorded on my recent trip to The Old Country, I talk to my good friend, ex-neighbour and academic, Dr James Kneale. He’s a lecturer in Geography at University College London, so I went to his archetypal academic’s office (piles of books, students knocking on the door*, dying spider plants) to talk to him about his work, his side-project music blog, and the news of the day.

THIS PROG: I had to take the opportunity to chat with Robin again, as he was staying with me in San Francisco while doing some filming for his current big project. We discuss all sorts of nonsense, in a very relaxed manner, due solely to the lateness of the hour and business of the day. We also jointly review Mrs Freshley’s Dreamies, an homage to the late lamented Hostess Twinkie, that I picked up in Carmel Valley (that and so much else besides).
