Recently I discovered this very cool vintage-style radio show called BATMAN : ACE OF DETECTIVES. Basically it's alot like those old radio shows you could listen to in the 1940's, like Little Orphan Annie or Superman, but it's completely NEW! When you listen to it there's sound effects ( creaking door, car engine starting, that kinda thing )& even great background music that really brings it to life. This is a lost ART! Also, the voices are extremely well done. The voice actors are top-notch & I really like the people who play Batman & Alfred. Actually ALL the voices are good & the storyline is interesting. I think they have about 9 or 10 episodes so far & they're well worth listening to. You can hear them at their website or do what I do. I download the MP3 & listen to them while working. You can find a LINK BUTTON at the BAT-BLOG LINKS area, the button for LINKS is on the top right-hand side of this batblog.
This Wednesday, March 10th, be sure to tune-in to the WHERE MONSTERS DWELL Podcast to hear an interview with the Famous Batman Comic Book Artist NORM BREYFOGLE. He's a total bat-fan favorite so it should be very cool! This will be Episode #91 that you can listen to LIVE on Wed or after that it will be posted so you can hear to it at anytime. Oh yeah, almost forgot, here's the link right HERE!
Listen LIVE on Wednesday, August 18th at 9 pm CST @ http://wheremonstersdwell.ca/Neal Adams is set to do an interview on the "Where Monsters Dwell" podcast. The word 'legendary' gets thrown around a lot these days but in this case it certainly fits the bill. From his work re-establishing Batman as a dark brooding figure to his work making Green Lantern/Green Arrow 'relevant' and from his work on a few small Marvel properties like X-Men and Avengers, Neal Adams has cemented himself as a legend in the comics industry. He joins WMD this week to chat about creator rights, how the industry has changed since he got in, his new Batman series 'Odyssey' and his new sketchbook coming from Vanguard Publishing 'The Art of Neal Adams'. It's gonna be Episode #113 so be sure to check it out & if you miss the original time you can always listen to it later.
Tonight, August 22nd, 2009 at 7:00pm Mark Hamill will be a special guest on the TALK GEEK Podcast.

Known to many as Luke Skywalker in the original Star Wars trilogy (1977-1983) and the voice of The Joker in Batman: The Animated Series (1992-1995), The New Batman Adventures (1997-1999), Justice League (2001-2006), Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker (2000) & the brand-new BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM Video Game ( Release Date: Aug 25th, 2009 ).

A few days ago I was interviewed by Javier Hernandez on his PLANET COMIC BOOK RADIO Podcast. This was my very 1st "LIVE" interview & I gotta admit it was really a lot of fun! He's a great host & the interview went along pretty smooth. To be honest I was extremely nervous, ha ha! At first all I could think about were the thousands of listeners but after awhile I just focused on talking with Javier, he's such a nice guy and a very good host, so that made it a lot easier. I know a lot of readers missed hearing it when it first came on, because of their jobs or whatever, but it's now posted on the PCBR website & you can listen to it anytime. It just streams on their page & it's like listening to the radio, very neat. Also, You don't really need to download any special software. Another way to hear it is to just download it as a podcast on your iPod. I hope you check it out! You can click on the above graphic or the PCBR LINK BUTTON down below, thanks! Oh yeah, I would also like to publicly thank Javier Hernandez for being such a gracious host & allowing me to do this. It was a really neat experience.

OK, I have been meaning to write about this for awhile but keep getting sidetracked. So, here we GO, finally! There are these 2 young guys named Steve & Andy and they just recently discovered the 1966 Batman TV Series! Yeah, I guess they're kind of young & missed it when they were children. Today, they do a very excellent podcast about their experiences watching the 1960's classic & they review each episode. It's kinda funny how much they totally love the show. But, that's cool! If you're a fan of the TV show too then you might wanna check out their page sometime, just click HERE!
I came across a podcast today that I knew I had to share here because it is "Batman-related" & extremely interesting. Bob Andelman, know as "Mr. Media", interviews Michael Uslan. This is the guy who has produced all the Batman movies we all love, from Batman 1989 to The Dark Knight. Currently, he's working on bringing Shazam & The Shadow to the big screen. So, if you're a fan of the Batman Films then be sure to listen to this fun interview.
Lately I have been really getting into Podcasts. My favorite genre is listening to in-depth interviews with people in the comic book art, publishing, or animation industry. Here's one I listened to last night which was great! It's a podcast called WORD BALLOON. It's a little over an hour of John Siuntres' conversation with the two producers of the Cartoon Network animated series Batman: The Brave And Bold, James Tucker and Michael Jellenic. We get previews of plots and characters that are coming up in this new second season. So, if you're a fan of the TV show & like behind-the-scene-type stuff then be sure to check it out, click HERE!
