Podcast: excuse me, ghidorah
- Baron Friedrich von HugelWell, after a dazzlingly lengthy hiatus, we’re back. This time I offer a few quotes from Baron Friedrich von Hugel, a writer whom I sense to be right in his views even when I don’t altogether understand them. About the family: Katie is doing well, is a very happy baby, is a joy to [...]
- Lame yet not lameLately I’ve been stretched rather thin, so this episode on liminalism isn’t quite the thrill-a-minute porpoise show regular listeners have come to expect. It is on liminalism — or liminality, if that’s the better term. That’s what they use on wikipedia and that’s what you’ve got here — the wikipedia entry on li […]
- KatieHere’s a short and sweet update on what’s going on at the Hatcher maison. Like how about our new baby, Katie? And an opportunity for listeners to reach down deep to see if they have any suggestions for show topics. Like how about liminalism? “The threshold people,” as Criswell would put it. People, places, and [...]
- The Meaty Filling of MST3KOur tribute to Mystery Science Theater 3000 goes out with a bang as Lint delves into the mysteries of satire, pop culture, and that time Tom Servo sang to his pet turtle, Tibby, for a full five minutes. Meanwhile, Susan is having a baby — tomorrow! Yikes! That makes baby number four! Yikes! The current [...]
- Mystery Science Theater 3000 part deuxWelcome to part two of our tribute to Mystery Science Theater 3000 in happy acknowledgement of the show’s 20th anniversary (sorry for this week’s delay). The great debate continues between those who feel the show is cynical and those who feel the show is perhaps only slightly cynical and those who believe the show is [...]
- 20th Anniversary of MST3KFor many years, one of the great pleasures in life (in my life, at least) was watching Mystery Science Theater 3000. I remember one Thanksgiving, in particular, when they had a marathon of around thirty episodes. I was in fanboy heaven, scarfing down turkey and watching turkeys at the same time. Although some took offense [...]
- Exorcise Your AmbitionsDo you feel driven to “make something of yourself”? To BE somebody? To leave your mark on the world? Why? And why does that involve absolutely NEEDING to write our generation’s version of the Narnia books? Hmmm? Well, that’s Lint’s ambition anyhow. He knows it’s crazy, but it sticks with him nevertheless. In this episode, […]
- Dark Night of the NerdyEver felt like God stopped returning your calls? This very personal episode (and aren’t they all?) begins on location in a parking lot at Georgia College & State University where wifey Susan teaches a class while I wait in the car. There is much ado about spiritual growth, the “three ways”, intimacy with God and/or [...]
- Final Crisis: Battling the Anti-Life EquationShhhhhh! I’ll tell you a secret. This is the first episode of the now weekly edition of excuse me, ghidorah. Don’t tell anybody in case I screw up. Ahem! Well, then! Welcome to a new edition of excuse me, ghidorah in which we pause from our busy schedules to talk about Jack Kirby, the New [...]
- Derek Yaniger, Master of LowbrowI’ll go ahead and blaze a trail of ignorance and say that Derek Yaniger’s art has always reminded me of the Sixties — of Jay Ward cartoons and Quisp cereal. In the description for his new book, Wildsville: The Art of Derek Yaniger, Amazon links his style with the Fifties: “Celebrating a retro subculture of [...]
