EPISODE 66: VIEWS FROM THE LONGBOX CHRISTMAS 2008 SPECTACULAR
Episode 66: Views From The Longbox Christmas 2008 Spectacular
Here it is, folks; the 2008 Christmas episode of Views! No one asked for it but you got it anyway. This year instead of playing Christmas themed Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman stories from Power Records I am joined by the Irredeemable Shag, Brad Douglas of the Spider-Man Crawlspace and Big Honkin’ Steve from everywhere and we talk Christmas, comic books and Christmas comic books. This is probably the most fun I have ever had recording and surprisingly we keep on point…most of the time. Seriously we discuss our favorite Christmas themed comic books, comic book/geek related presents, Christmas music, Christmas specials and Christmas movies. In between we do a whole lotta laughing and generally have a good time and I hope you do too.
Quick warning; this may be a Christmas special, but the language gets a little raw at times, so you’ve been warned.
A few things before I get to the links. First the fireplace, doorbell and answering machine sounds were taken from The Freesound Project, which is a collaborative database of Creative Commons licensed sounds. Freesound focuses only on sound, not songs and I joined their site when I was searching for sounds online. It is a great site and here is a list of the sounds I downloaded and the people who created them.
AM Beep was by NoiseCollector, TwoToneDoorbell was by acclivity and fire.crackling was by dobroide.
Thanks to those people for creating those sounds and for the Freesound Project for being there when I needed them.
Second, here are the covers to some of the books we discuss in this episode. I am putting them under a cut because I crosspost this to LiveJournal and I don’t want to obliterate my friends’ Friends Pages. Read more…
