Saluton, estas mi Tyson Saner! Welcome
to this episode of Succotash that numbers 314! If you
are new here, thank you so much for listening. If you listened to
last week's episode #314 subtitled "Let's All Go to the Movies" you
no doubt enjoyed the content featured within that episode which was
hosted by Marc Hershon.
Marc, this show's creator and original full-time host, originated
this program to showcase the soundcasts of comedy folks and the
like for over 11 years now, and for the last 2+ years, since
shortly after the COVID-19 Lockdown of 2020, he and I have been
alternating weekly hosting duties.
So,…last week, Mr. Hershon brought you a quartet of clips from the
movie-centric soundcasts known as But Is It Good,
Forever Movie Boys, Rotten Tomatoes Is Wrong, and
They’re Just Movies. It was an entertaining episode that
you can still find in our archive at www.succotashshow.com as well as pretty much most
places you can find other soundcasts including, but not limited to,
Apple or Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Soundcloud, YouTube, Amazon
Music, Audible, Podchaser, and PodBay.
This week's episode features clips from
the soundcasts: Black Aesthetic, Jeremiah
Wonders, and Real Life Sci-Fi.
…and of course, we've got a classic advert from our longtime FAKE
sponsor "Henderson's Pants" for you later in the
program.
I can't think of a good reason to delay the proceedings any any longer, so let's get to the clips while they are still warm!
CLIPS
Black Aesthetic
The soundcast Black Aesthetic feature Black voices talking
Black life, Black Arts and Black culture with Queen
Dee, Dellar, Mona Loki
and KM Ross. A production of Black Humboldt,
a volunteer run organization working to create and sustain safe
spaces and representation for Black & Brown community members in
Humboldt County, CA. BH achieves this goal through hosting
Exclusive events for Black and Brown identities. Our clip is from
the episode that dropped on the 13th of October, 2020,
entitled "Getting Mental" w/ comedian Joshua Barnes. "Barnes matches his
anecdotal wisdom with an “everybody’s favorite dad” charm. He’ll
have you rolling in your seats with stories and musings of everyday
life. Barnes delivers a commanding performance whether he’s
recounting the times his son has shamed him or detailing his
beliefs of life’s purpose."
Real Life Sci-Fi
From the
show's description: "Real Life Sci-Fi is
a comedy podcast. A late night bar conversation about conspiracies,
creatures and all things paranormal. Should the world be
categorized as fiction or non-fiction? 1 skeptic. 1 believer. 1
woman. 1 guest. I clipped this snippet (or is that snipped this
clippet?) from their Epi357 which dropped on June 20th of this
year, entitled "Crop Circles With Fred Stoller. (Fred
was a guest on Succotash during our first year, way
back on Episode 15!) The hosts —
Wade Randolph, Willy Roberts, Erin Pearce — continue
their conversation with Fred, off the topic of the rest of
the show (crop circles - some crop circles are man made. Are all of
them? There is some compelling information about some crop circles.
Will they get to it?)
Jeremiah wonders…
is a
weekly podcast where Jeremiah
Watkins interviews guests with some of his favorite
original characters and impressions. You never know who's going to
call in! We clipped from back in May of this year (this year being
2022, if you happen to have been time traveling…), Episode 231 with
guest Nigel Ng (AKA Uncle Roger)
…and that pretty much brings us to the end of the episode for this week. I've only got my wrap-up left to do here which will include some light begging of you to rate and review us if you like what you heard. It really helps us out…helps "keep the lights on" so to speak.
Sometimes it is difficult to believe that it has been 11 years
since this show started, and within that time the format known as
the "podcast" has experienced a huge surge in growth and…perhaps a
stagnation, a decline, a resurgence…you know, I don't really know
if the last bits of that are true. I just know that online,
podcasts are ubiquitous…can't throw the proverbial digital stone
without hitting one…and offline…It seems like they are still kind
of lesser known than most other forms of media. Maybe that's not
true and I need to talk to more people.
At any rate, THIS podcast - or soundcast as this soundcast refers
to podcasts as - has the role of introducing other soundcasts to
people who are technically already somewhat aware of their
existence…you know what? We've been over this.
I hope something you heard in this program inspires you to listen more, or at the very least has been entertaining. Thank you for listening, be decent to each other, tune in next week for Epi315 hosted by Marc Hershon, and, in the meantime, if someone asks you if you have heard anything interesting lately…or you'd like to proactively tell people about what you are listening to and it has been us…won't you please….pass the Succotash?
