Baron joins us to tell of a harrowing story of survival during his first tour in Vietnam. After an engine exploded mid-flight, shrapnel tore through the aircraft, leaving the crew struggling to maintain altitude. With one engine failing and the other insufficient to keep them airborne, they made an emergency landing at Camp Eagle, narrowly avoiding disaster. The episode then explores how this veteran's career in aviation began in high school, leading to an unexpected detour with the Marine Corps, and his path to becoming a helicopter pilot. Hear a gripping first-hand account of pivotal moments, including his experiences flying heavy-lift and a mission that ended in disaster in the Iranian desert in April of 1980.

Spoiler alert: we will be discussing important points of the episode, so if you have not yet seen the episode, watch it first and then come back here for our analysis. A serene, beautiful day on Maple Street, USA. The birds are chirping, children playing, and people washing their cars. All is as it should be, until something unidentifiable flies over head. What was it? No one knows, and that's only the beginning. When technology starts failing all around them, accusations begin to fly. Maybe someone on dear Maple St. isn't who they say they are. Maybe someone is not even from this planet. As neighbors begin to turn on each other, the extraterrestrials need only sit back and watch, as we essentially destroy ourselves. This week on KOI, we're discussing the classic episode "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street." We'll talk about whether or not Steve Brand, played by Claude Akins is a Just Man figure; we'll talk about whether or not we can blame one person more than the others; and I'll reveal to you my moment of awe.

Tom Atkins & Claude Akins star

Tread Perilously's summer Patreon request month leads to a forgotten corner of 1970s television with the Movin' On episode called "The Cowhands." When Sonny Pruitt and an old friend challenge each other to rodeo antics, the friend ends up in the hospital. Pruitt agrees to move the rodeo to a nearby town and take care of the cashbox. Soon enough, the rodeo owner's ex-wife appears to take charge and admit she was always sweet on Pruitt. Can they get the rodeo ready for a key show? Also, will they be able to keep their young hot-shot bullrider from singing with a bigger promoter? Erik and Justin get lost in the 1970s of it all. Justin attempts to figure out Movin' On's premise from the episode itself. Gene Simmons claims a most grandiose invention. The career of Claude Akins gets some examination. Santa Clarita does not fare well in a geography corner analysis. The pair try to determine the title of a rodeo emcee. They also re-imagine the episode's plot with John D. Cort and Eddie from Baywatch. A Martinez appears as the young rider and Tina Louise proves to be the episode MVP. Also, John Wayne gets his just deserts.

THE FINAL CHAPTER (not really but bear with us) of the Ape Saga brings us to Battle for the Planet of the Apes, an anticlimactic conclusion to the first five groundbreaking science fiction films that blinded us with promise before fading like a dying star. Listen as we pontificate upon two new releases (Jungle Cruise and The Green Knight) before diving into yet another discussion of the primate franchise's scattershot concoction of philosophy and monkey-fueled mayhem.

“Is The Same Old Train… Just A Different Time”. Es el mismo viejo tren… sólo un tiempo diferente. Así ha sido y seguirá siendo TOMA UNO, un programa que reúne el pasado, el presente y parte del futuro de la música de raíces norteamericana. En la edición número 41 de los premios Grammy, la de 1998, este tema que compuso Marty Stuart se llevó la estatuilla a la mejor colaboración vocal de country. Era "Same Old Train", que cerraba el álbum Tribute To Tradition, y donde podíamos encontrar las voces de, nombrados por orden alfabético, Clint Black, los tristemente desaparecidos Joe Diffie y Merle Haggard, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, Patty Loveless, Earl Scruggs, Ricky Skaggs, Marty Stuart, Pam Tillis, Randy Travis, Travis Tritt y Dwight Yoakam. La country music sigue siendo un estilo musical claramente enraizado con su tierra y hoy vamos a acercarnos a él para escuchar esas formaciones circunstanciales que en algún momento han permitido que escucháramos juntos a modo de supergrupos a artistas de una categoría extrema como ocurrió en 1994 cuando Carl Perkins, el legendario guitarrista Duane Eddy y los Mavericks, capitaneados por Raúl Malo, grababan juntos una versión espectacular del tema para el álbum Red Hot + Country que reunió a distintos artistas del género para recaudar fondos en la lucha contra el SIDA. Carl Perkins es un referente de los pioneros del rock and roll y una pieza clave también entre los guitarristas de la country music, buen amigo y compañero de Johnny Cash y de tantos otros. "Matchbox" es un blues de Blind Lemon Jefferson que se convirtió en un clásico del rockabilly gracias a la versión realizada por el músico de Tennessee en 1957 durante su etapa de Sun Records. A Portrait of Merle Haggard llegaba en 1969 con “Workin' Man Blues" como tema más destacado. Puede entenderse como un cierto homenaje a una parte muy importante de sus seguidores, la clase trabajadora, con ese orgullo por el trabajo bien hecho y el sacrificio, con referencias a la familia y al relax en el bar con una buena cerveza y mejor música. Es uno de los mejores ejemplos de lo que es el Bakersfield Sound. "Workin' Man Blues" sobresalía junto a "Silver Wings" y "Hungry Eyes" en aquel registro, contando con músicos como James Burton, Lewis Talley y una base de ritmo compuesta por el bajista Chuck Berghofer y el batería Jim Gordon. Esta vez eran Diamond Rio junto a Leroy Parnell y Steve Wariner quienes se recrearon en el tema bajo el nombre de Jed Zeppelin. Cuando hablamos de supergrupos inesperados, no todo el mundo recuerda a Buzzin 'Cousins, que estaban formados por John Mellencamp, Dwight Yoakam, el recientemente fallecido John Prine, Joe Ely y James McMurtry. Fue una idea de Mellencamp que con la edición den single “Sweet Suzanne” convirtió en un one-hit wonder intentando responder en cierta forma a los Travelin’ Wilburys. Era el año 1992 y él debutaba como actor y director en la película Falling From Grace, basado en el Lonesome Dove del que era autor Larry McMurtry. Con Mariel Hemingway, Kay Lenz y los veteranos Claude Akins y Dub Taylor, aquel drama familiar tenían muchas similitudes con la biografia del artista de Indiana. Su banda sonora nos dejó canciones propias y la participación de amigos como Nanci Griffith, Dwight Yoakam, John Prine o Janis Ian. Pero fue su pieza central, la sorprendente “Sweet Suzanne”, el tema que nos cautivó. Cada uno de los cinco componentes de los Buzzin 'Cousins aportaba su propia idiosincrasia, especialmente vocal. Incluso fueron nominados para el Evento Vocal del Año por la CMA. Han pasado 16 años desde que en 2004 Raúl Malo, Pat Flynn, Rob Ickes y Dave Pomeroy se reunieron para recrearse en versionar algunas canciones que mostraban su evidente eclecticismo y editar aquel proyecto bajo el nombre de The Nashville Acoustic Sessions. Allí estaba “You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go” para nuestro disfrute. Cuando Bob Dylan publicó en 1975 el álbum Blood On The Tracks, que muchos consideran uno de los álbumes más inspirados a nivel literario de toda su discografía, no fueron demasiados los que se fijaron en “You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go”, una canción que tiene mucho que ver con el final de la relación amorosa con su mujer, Sara, de quien se divorció en 1977. Curiosamente, Dylan no ha cantado el tema desde hace más de 40 años. En 1994, dentro del proyecto Red Hot + Country para luchar contra el SIDA, Suzy Bogguss, Alison Krauss y Kathy Mattea unieron sus voces con las de Crosby, Stills & Nash para realizar esta versión antológica de un clásico tan significativo como “Teach Your Children”, que había sido grabado a finales de Octubre de 1969 por aquel supergrupo nacido en las colinas de Laurel Canyon, con la incorporación de Neil Young, para que formara parte del álbum Déjà Vu. Una canción pacifista creada por Graham Nash a la que Stephen Stills incorporó un medio tiempo de country con el añadido del steel guitar de Jerry Garcia, líder de Grateful Dead. La canadiense k.d. lang siempre ha sido una cuidadosa defensora de la tradición de la country music, algo habitual en sus conciudadanos, pero cuando apareció desde su natal Consort, en la provincia de Alberta, con una clásica voz campera, una banda de acompañamiento que era más rock'n'roll que country y la determinación de crear un sonido propio, estaba haciendo algo que no tenía precedentes. Patsy Cline, la mítica artista de Virginia es su influencia definitiva y en su tercera grabación, Shadowland, The Owen Bradley Sessions, contó incluso con la producción de quién la consiguió sus mayores éxitos: Owen Bradley. Prescindió de su propia banda, The Reclines, y utilizó a los mejores músicos de estudio de Nashville, algunos de los cuales habían participado originalmente en las sesiones de Patsy. El disco se convirtió en uno de los más respetados de 1988 y para la canción de cierre contó con el apoyo vocal de Brenda Lee, Loretta Lynn y Kitty Wells. En el video se incorporaba, además, la mítica Minnie Pearl. Bajo el título de "Honky Tonk Angel's Medley" pudimos escuchar “In The Evening When The Sun Goes Down”, “You Nearly Lose Your Mind” y “Blues Stay Away From Me”. En 1993 apareció el álbum Honky Tonk Angels en el que la siempre inquieta Dolly Parton se unió en formato de trío a dos leyendas como Tammy Wynette y Loretta Lynn para grabar el álbum Honky Tonk Angels, una colección de canciones que celebraba el papel de la mujer en la country music. Para versionar el clásico de J.D. Miller “It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonks Angels” que en 1952 fue grabado por Kitty Wells como respuesta a "The Wild Side of Life" de Hank Thompson, recuperaron a la mítica vocalista de Nashville, resultando un legendario cuarteto impagable en el terreno de la country music. Neoyorquino de Corning, Duane Eddy, que este viernes cumplió 82 años, es posiblemente el instrumentista de rock’n’roll más popular e influyente de su tiempo y, junto a Chuck Berry, el responsable de que se popularizara la guitarra eléctrica por entonces. Eddy está considerado como el máximo responsable del llamado twang factor, dando un gran protagonismo a las cuerdas bajas. Era el año 1977 cuando Duane Eddy conjugo un supergrupo impensable, al reunirse con Waylon Jennings, su mujer Jessi Colter (con quien el guitarrista había estado casado con anterioridad), Willie Nelson y otros amigos para revitalizar “You Are My Sunshine” en un extraño single que hoy hemos rescatado del pasado. Roger Miller es uno de los artistas tejanos que no pueden olvidarse. Tras pasar tres años en Corea, donde fué asignado a los Servicios Especiales, intentó ser reconocido como compositor en Nashville mientras realizaba cualquier trabajo eventual. Grabó en RCA sin ninguna repercusión, pero encontró una buena via escribiendo éxitos para Del Shannon, Ray Price y Andy Williams, entre otros, en los 60. Cuando consiguió fichar por Mercury las cosas cambiaron. "King Of The Road" fue un claro ejemplo, obteniendo un tremendo éxito en 1965 en su propia voz. La letra habla de cómo una persona común también puede sentirse libre y se describe a sí mismo como el rey de la carretera. Su homenaje en forma de disco, King Of The Road. A Tribute To Roger Miller, ha reunido a Eric Church, Kacey Musgraves, Merle Haggard en una de sus últimas grabaciones, Willie Nelson, Asleep at the Wheel, Brad Paisley y Ringo Starr, entre otros que han cerrado el trabajo con esta versión conjunta de aquella canción inolvidable. Probablemente, “Amazing Grace” es el himno más popular de los creados en el idioma inglés, y pudiera ser porque sus palabras describen perfectamente a su autor: John New­ton que era un comerciante de esclavos antes de convertirse al cristianismo. La pieza fue compuesta entre 1760 y 1770, posiblemente para un servicio semanal. A lo largo de los años, distintos escritores han añadido versos que bien pudieran proceder también de otros himnos escritos por John Newton. La música, eso sí, es de dos virginianos que la crearon con el nombre de “New Bri­tain”. En 1994 se filmó la película Maverick, basada en la serie de televisión de los años 50 del mismo nombre. Con Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster y James Garner encabezando el reparto, la banda sonora de la cinta resultó ser lo más destacable. Su tema de cierre fue una versión coral de “Amazing Grace” en la que intervenían una pléyade interminable de estrellas de la escena del country de la década de los 90 que hoy nos dejan en la parada final de nuestro viejo tren... pero en un tiempo diferente.

The Curse 1987 A meteorite crashes on the farm of the severely dysfunctional Hayes family. The Hayes family are a really messed-up bunch: stern fire-and-brimstone religious zealot patriarch Nathan (essayed with eye-rolling hammy brio by Claude Akins), his smart, but unhappy foster son Zack (a likable performance by Will Wheaton), lusty, faithless, frustrated wife Frances (a deliciously histrionic Kathleen Jordon Gregory), crude, browbeating, moronic son Cyrus (a perfectly hateful Malcom Danare), and cute little daughter Alice (the adorable Amy Wheaton). Some gunk from the meteorite contaminates the water. Pretty soon the crops, animals and even several members of the Hayes family begin to mutate in various disgusting and disturbing ways. Zack must save Alice from his now monstrous and dangerous family.   The Curse 2: The Bite (aka The Farm) 1989   Traveling to Bakersfield, California, Lisa Snipes, (Jill Schoelen) and her boyfriend Clark Newman, (J. Eddie Peck) are warned away from going there but decide on a shortcut to get there. Along the shortcut, they come across a horde of snakes in the road, and getting back to a hotel, he gets bitten. A fellow proprietor, Harry Morton, (Jaime Farr) offers an antidote and they leave, only for him to discover later on that it was a mutated snake which was responsible and races off to find them. While chasing them down, he begins to mutate into a deadly creature from his hand and refuses to have anyone do anything with it. Taking matters into his own hands, he goes on the run and tries to get away, only for the snake to return and force a final showdown.   The Curse 3: Blood Sacrifice (aka Panga) 1991 In Africa, an English Sugar Cane Plantation owner's pregnant American wife is cursed for her sister's stopping the tribal sacrifice of a goat. Dr. Pearson (Christopher Lee), a raspy-voiced doctor with asthma, who also has ties to the witchdoctor, attends to the medical needs of his neighboring locals.   The ceremony interrupted, the blood sacrifice removed, a summoned monster from the sea might just wreak havoc on them all. The Curse 4: The Ultimate Sacrifice (aka Catacombs) The plot involves a monastery in Italy. The film opens during the middle ages actually. We see some monks trying to perform an exorcism on this very decrepit looking man. One of the monks ends up getting possessed, but the keep the evil at bay by sealing the room with some kind of holy seal/symbol. It then goes into modern day. Where a young girl who is studying to be a teacher for a religious school goes to the monastery to learn some more things about the holy church. Some weird things go on and a lot of the monks, especially this crazy, but very religiously devout one, blame it on her, calling her evil and unclean. It turns out the possessed man in the basement was more than just a possessed person, but is actually The Beast Of The Apocalypse, THE ANTICHRIST HIMSELF!!

For episode 1B, we jump to the ass-end of The Gipper's career, examining Don Siegel's acclaimed 1964 adaptation of Hemingway's THE KILLERS. Reagan's final role finds him cast against type as a sociopathic Southern California entrepreneur who is most at home on the business end of a sniper scope (when he's got former associates to kill) or a pair of binoculars (when he's being cuckolded again). The film is a motion Dorian Gray-picture hiding in plain sight, belying the "Great Communicator's" good-guy grandpa image and laying bare the criminal/realpolitik roots of the Goldwaterite Conservative movement that would swallow the Republican party whole by 1980. Of course, in 1964, even the most sanguine libertarian hustlers in the GOP had no idea what the next decade and a half held in store for their movement. After the defeat of their sparsely-haired boy Barry in November, those ragged individualists found themselves between a Rockefeller and a hard place, not unlike Reagan's Jack Browning character near the end of THE KILLERS. We cover the film's place in post-studio and post-noir history, discuss the careers of director Siegel and players Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson, John Cassavetes, Clu Gulager, Norman Fell and Claude Akins; and play our first round of "Would you bang Reagan in this film?"
