Fave Five From Fans is a weekly Podcast where I invite a friend with whom I share a common interest in some Pop Culture topic, i.e. Horror Movies, Literature, Toys, etc., and we each make a list of our Favorite Five things from that common genre. Please note the distinction between “Favorite” and “Best” or “Top”, as I want my guests to feel free to make their choices based on whatever criteria THEY see fit. Sure, it can be rated on scripts, story, cinematography, but also know that if it holds a special place because of a personal reason, it could be thrown in there.

    CDWJR Ep028 Saturday Mornings in the '70s

    In this episode of “Complete Disarray With Jamie Ray”, host Jamie welcomes J Hall, host of the "Okie Bookcast" and author/professor, for a trip down memory lane to the golden age of Saturday mornings. Zooming into the Plastic Microphone Studios, J Hall joins Jamie to reminisce about those magical weekend mornings that defined a generation. From the sugary cereals that fueled our cartoon marathons to the unforgettable animated adventures that kept us glued to the TV, Jamie and J explore what made Saturday mornings so special in the 1970s. The conversation ventures beyond the living room to discuss the toys that sparked our imaginations and the freedom of neighborhood bike rides—those hours spent exploring, adventuring, and building memories that would last a lifetime. Whether you're a child of the '70s or simply curious about a time when Saturday mornings meant something truly special, this episode delivers a warm, funny, and heartfelt journey back to simpler times.

    Greetings, Citizens. I'm your bat-tastic host Jamie Ray, and today we've got a special guest joining us here at the Plastic Microphone Studios. Joey O is zooming in to talk about one of the most iconic animated series of all time—Batman: The Animated Series. For those who grew up in the '90s, this show wasn't just a cartoon—it was a masterclass in storytelling, atmosphere, and character development. From the dark, noir-inspired art style to Kevin Conroy's legendary voice work as the Dark Knight, this series set the gold standard for superhero animation. Today, we're diving deep into Gotham to count down our five favorite episodes. We'll be talking about everything from chilling villain origins to heart-wrenching character moments that proved animation could be just as sophisticated as any live-action drama. So grab your utility belt, fire up the Batmobile, and let's get started!

    FFFF Ep193 Fave Five Live Songs > Studio Versions

    bit.ly/ffff193 - Spotify List bit.ly/sffff193  Join us for another episode of Fave Five From Fans! This time, I'm heading over to Dame Judy D's place for a lively discussion about our favorite magical live performances that somehow manage to surpass their studio counterparts. You know the ones—where the energy, the improvisation, or that perfect moment in time captured on a live album just hits differently than the polished studio version. We dive into what makes a live recording truly special: Is it the raw emotion? The extended guitar solos? The crowd energy? The happy accidents that become legendary moments? Dame Judy D and I share our five (and a few more) favorite picks and discuss what elevates a live performance from good to absolutely transcendent. Plus, I snack my way through some classic Captain's Wafers while we chat—because every great music discussion needs the proper crunchy accompaniment. Whether you're a bootleg collector or just someone who appreciates when artists take their songs to new heights on stage, this episode is for you. Tune in and see if your favorite live versions made our lists! Links can be found on our profile page and at www.linktr.ee/hulkboy.

Whether you're a longtime devotee of Italian horror or new to Argento's blood-soaked universe, this episode offers the perfect entry point into one of cinema's most distinctive and influential voices in terror.
