Pack up your cowboy hat and your best beans, we're heading to "The Dude Ranch"! Straight from a 1936 issue of Western Story Magazine comes a tale of- well, more like an advice column of thrills, packing tips, and a surprising level of detail about the dark, damp secrets of Hidden Valley Ranch. Bring the kids! This episode includes a promo for The Story Song Podcast, an excellent listen that everyone should subscribe to. Every episode they discuss a different narrative song, like "Jolene" by Dolly Parton or "Regulate" by Warren G. featuring Nate Dogg (two personal faves), in all its glory.

What is "The Whispering Ether"? Is it a goth zine from the 90s? Is it the name of the letter column of a goth zine from the 90s? No, it's the creation of a mad scientist )who is much better at monologuing than scientisting) that allows him to read the minds of at least two people: A safecracker sent to steal his secrets and the leader of a European country to be named later. From the June, 1926 issue of Amazing Stories comes a tale of super-science that will astound you!

In this episode we peruse the pulse-pounding pugilistic parable "Like a Stick"! Punched straight from the Fall, 1949 issue of Fight Stories magazine (motto: "Our Name is a Spoiler for our Stories!"), "Like a Stick" is the tale of an unlikely prizefighter with an even unlikelier physique. That's right: He's really a kangaroo! Okay, he's just skinny, sigh... Stuck at home with nothing to do but listen to podcasts?

Recorded live at the 2020 Livestream for the Cure charity podcasting marathon, it's "Terran Treachery Trips Luna" from the January, 1952 issue of Fantastic Adventures magazine! This almost alliterative tale of lunar diamond madness has spacesuits and flare guns and wagons with tongues and proves the moon truly is a harsh mistress (but not the fun kind). NOTE ON SOUND: This was a live telethon so some of the theme music is a little low in the mix (don't worry, it's only the music). You will also hear occasional loud noises announcing donations throughout the segment. Sorry about that but we love to help raise money for cancer research!  You will also sometimes hear Nick from the Epic Film Guys podcast, who, along with some other great podcasters, created the entire event and raised over $15,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. It's a terrific org, a fantastic event, and he's a pretty swell dude. Listen to Epic Film Guys wherever you listen to podcasts or learn more at http://www.epicfilmguys.com/.

Hope you survive the experience!

The hiatus is over! We're back, baby, unless you're listening to this later or catching up on the podcast, in which case we've never left, much like Big Boy. In this episode we head to a ritzy casino as a desperate man spins the wheel of fortune in what might be "The Last Throw"! From the November, 1922 issue of World Fiction magazine comes a tale that always bets on black! Actually, the guy bets on red in the story but I always listen to Wesley Snipes when it comes to gambling tips. Stuck at home with nothing to do but listen to podcasts?

Happy New Year! Unless you're listening outside of the month of January, in which case carry on. It's 2020 and in this episode we're interrupting "The White Death," a 99 year-old tale of survival all the way from Paraguay! It's actually all the way from the pages of Pluck and Luck magazine (slogan: "We're Pluckin' Luckin' Good!") and features a menagerie of threats as a woman fights the dangers of the jungle to protect her daughter. 9 out of 10 Swamp Things agree that this story is a story. The other one is just Swamp Gary and Swamp Gary doesn't like agreeing. It's a new year but you can still listen to our comedy/sci-fi audio drama series, Parasitecology!

Hello, this is Rob Trevino, co-creator of Parasitecology and other podcasts from ohthehumanity.com. We'd like to thank those who nominated us for the Audio Verse Awards. Audio fiction for us and, dare I say, our fellow nominees, is a labor of love and listener support is incredibly important to all creators. We appreciate it greatly. Parasitecology is a darkly comic sci-fi audio drama about Javier Duran — a suicidal nerd — and his alien parasite best friend, who has taken the name of Cher Gandhi Statham. After a traumatic episode, the pair strikes a deal: Cher gets free room and board, living in Javier's brainstem. And Javier gets something he has never had: control over his spiraling emotions and crippling anxieties. Their bond grows… until they stumble upon a devious plot endangering both their worlds, perpetrated through viral social media campaigns. But how can they save the world if they can't get out of bed? There are 14 episodes in the first series of Parasitecology, with each being about 25 minutes. There's comedy, action, drama, car chases, heartfelt sacrifices, homicidal electric scooters, uncomfortable work happy hours, and much, much more. If you haven't listened, we hope you give the show a try. Please note: While Parasitecology is a comedy, it incorporates the serious and, for us, highly personal topic of mental health, including dealing with anxiety, depression and suicide. If you or a loved one in the United States is at risk of self-harm, please: get help and call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255. Thank you for your time and consideration and we hope you enjoy our silly show about serious things. ohthehumanity.com

We're back riding the iron horse with a story of the rails! From the January, 1910 issue of Railroad Man's Magazine comes "Large Salary Too Small", the story that proves a railroad fool and his railroad money are soon railroad parted.

All this, plus a great recipe for canned beans for your bindle! In other news we've completed the first season of our comedy sci-fi podcast, Parasitecology!

It's a Tale of the Old West as lawmen clash, villains threaten, and long, contemplative walks are taken. "Trust a Dead Man" is as gritty and hard-boiled as the title implies! Well, it doesn't actually make any sense with the story, but it's a damn exciting title! It's from the December, 1949 issue of 10 Story Western magazine (motto: If We Wanted 11 We'd Change the Name, Dummies) and features tragic love, gunfights, and a special appearance by Paul Giamatti.  In other news we've completed the first season of our comedy sci-fi podcast, Parasitecology! It's got aliens, spaceships, work happy hours, trips to the supermarket, and a fugitive alien brain parasite named Cher. It's a whole lot of story in 14 episodes with each about 25 minutes long.

THE EXPLOSIVE FINALE IS HERE! Cher and Javier face faceless hordes of evil AI and electric scooters in a race to save their lives and (if there's time) the world. Will they escape to Cher's homeworld and leave us all in the hands of the Personeum Corporation? Will they stand and fight against the impossible odds? Will there be a Season 2? Some of these answer will be found here and two sentient beings' lives will NEVER BE THE SAME! Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend.

Our show reconstructs books that have been divided into thirds and assigned to three different hosts. We then recap the book in full over three episodes. In this episode, Rob from Interrupted Tales and Parasitecology choo choo chooses to reveal where Arya's Braavosi coin ended up, introduce us to explosive car jousts, and give an insider tip on what to order at Mexican restaurants. (Just don't tell "Never on Sunday Steve.")  --- Check out Alan and Rob's podcasts! This week, we discussed the audiodrama Parasitecology. Find Parasitecology on your regular podcatcher (if it's not iTunes) and find Rob and Alan on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook!  --- From the back cover: MARK HARDIN...The Penetrator. He'd learned how in Vietnam. Infiltrate the enemy's position, determine the plan of action and then strike swiftly, taking out as many key men as possible, wreaking destruction, leaving chaos in your wake. Now he was in Los Angeles, engaged in a new, far more sinister war. But he was fully prepared and totally committed, and bound by no rules but his own. He is tall and slim, reflecting his unique Indian-Welsh background. His driver's license indicates his age is twenty-eight. If he seems a bit grim, it is for good reason. He was orphaned at four, when his parents and three brothers and sisters were killed in an automobile crash. Since then he's been mistreated, brutalized by life, injured in games (football), and wounded in combat. But he's survived. Mark Hardin is tough, a survivor. And an expert. Marksmanship, karate, aikido, and even the crossbow, are part of his arsenal. He is a new breed of warrior--without uniform, without rank--dedicated to the American way of life, and pledged to fight anyone who seeks to destroy it. On either side of the law. That's why he's in Los Angeles. Just the beginning of a long and lonely series of brushfire wars. -- Some relevant characters: Mark Hardin: 28 year-old Vietnam vet going through a mid-life crisis. Has very few emotions. On a mission to kill at least 100 people by the end of the book to avenge his friend, Donna Morgan. Skills range from makeup to grenade throwing. Donna Morgan: a USC anthropologist who could tell your genetic ancestry just by looking. RIP. Professor Haskins: Owner of the Stronghold. Donna's uncle.  David Red Eagle: "Old West" medicine man, trains Mark to be stealthy. Don Pietro Scarelli: runs a mafia crime ring and takes a lot of phonecalls. Pretty angry at current events and the man behind them (the penetrator). His Lordship: A mysterious person on the other end of Don's speakerphone. Is not Bosley. Senator Martyn Corvus: On a committee against organized crime, headed to California to figure out what's going on with all this dang heroin. Officer Kelly Patterson: Not just a cop. An Irish cop. Lumpy Louie: A henchman tricked into telling an answering machine all the mafia's current plans and movement. Dead now. Charlie "the Horse" Cavalleri: A criminal who loves ponies and heroin. Was like a son to Don Pietro but now he's dead. Sad. -- Support the show: Thanks to our sponsor, Audible, for giving our listeners a free audiobook credit by going to audibletrial.com/pulp!

3 EPISODES LEFT IN SEASON 1! It's episode 12 of Parasitecology and Javier & Cher find themselves on the run from the Personeum Corporation and their thousands of devices watching you, listening to you, and definitely smelling you all the time. Where can they hide and formulate a plan where no one could possibly find them? I'm not saying it's the library, I'm just saying it's definitely the library. As we all know, however, the library contains everything you need to avoid an alien invasion so they should be good. And what's this about Stargates? Wait, Cher has reminded me they are not called Stargates, that is ridiculous. So what are they called? Listen now to find out! Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend. It's produced with spirit, gumption, and a new brand of gumption-flavored spirits.

A mystery story with not much story and a detective story without much detecting, "The Master Key" will leave you breathless! If you have asthma and have climbed several flight of stairs.

And they wonder why print is dead. Plus: Just how much would you pay for a nap? A quick scheduling reminder: Our next episode will be in exactly two weeks.

EPISODE #10 of Parasitecology! A visit to the Personeum corporation's fancy cafeteria helps Cher and Javier make progress on their research into the shady AlphaTrack (and also helps Cher understand the joy of Pizza Rib Pockets with Wang Jangler sauce), but what deadly secrets will the theft of Vance's badge and access to the executive database uncover?

It's our filthiest episode yet! Get ready for sizzling acti- Wait, it's about getting a job in the airline industry? And that's the title? Okay. Well. Folks, get ready for another advice column from the past as we interrupt "How to Get an Air Job" from the August, 1927 issue of Air Stories (this month's cover story: "The Revenge of Commander Cumulus!"). It's about how to find work in the amazing new(ish) world of aviation, which pretty much boils down to "learn how to fly in the Army" or "hang around a plane factory looking sad until they give you a job". So you'll learn ALL about getting a job fixing, building, and flying planes, which is just as exciting as anything else that title could imply. Unless you're into that kind of thing. We don't judge.

EPISODE #9 of Parasitecology! In the brief calm before the coming storm that is the final run of episodes in Season 1, Javier and Cher join forces to figure out just how deep in it they are. Javier learns about the pleasant sounding Cabal of Violence and the secret history of Earth, Cher's homeworld, and selective breeding and Cher learns about the excitement that is a day at work as Javier digs up information about what the Personeum Corporation may be up to. Plus, a quick trip to the club for some quiet soul searching and conversation. Hey, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Please don’t use the fancy soaps or guest room towels because this episode we’re joined by Linzi from the fantastic 33% Pulp podcast! Linzi reads “Proposal Bait” from the February, 1951 issue of Today’s Love, a tale of romance and ghosting but unfortunately not a tale of romantic ghosts. No, this one has belly flops and an inexplicable children’s clothing store in an inexplicable town and true love torn asunder by random gossip and then just as easily brought back with no lessons learned. Ah, pulp! Thanks to Linzi for joining us! If you listen to this podcast it’s very easy to recommend 33% Pulp, which Linzi is 50% of (if you don’t count guests and carry the 2). I can almost guarantee you’ll like it. In fact, I do guarantee! If you try it and don’t, just send the unfinished portion to Pueblo, CO and I’ll have someone get back to you. Please subscribe and follow 33% Pulp @33_pulp on Twitter and discover the greatness. A quick scheduling reminder: Our next episode will be in exactly two weeks.

Join us this episode for a chilling tale of telepathy and mad science (and not trying smooth, mental lines to pick people up at bars as the title would suggest) in Amazing Stories' "The Telepathic Pick-up" from December, 1926. Prepare yourself for horror and surprisingly great radio reception! Alan and Rob are guest-free and feeling loopy so we practiced for our upcoming live show by recording this week's episode on Twitch! Completely unannounced, we figured we would just get in there and play around. Plus, Rob is on cold meds so it seems like a good time to loosen up. Keep an eye for us on Twitch, you never know when we might be recording! We also share a promo for Livestream for the Cure 3.0 which will be happening in just a few weeks! We'll be part of dozens of podcasts livestreaming to raise money for cancer research from May 17-19. It's going to be a blast. A quick scheduling reminder: Our next episode will be in exactly two weeks. On the in-between weeks we are releasing our sci-fi comic audiodrama, Parasitecology. We'll be back weekly after Parasitecology's 14-episode run. To learn more about Parasitecology, visit our website https://ohthehumanity.com or search in any podcatcher. We've gotten some nice feedback and would love to hear from you after you hear from us.

EPISODE #6 of Parasitecology! Javier and Cher make their way to a work happy hour, discuss many of Personeum's apps and businesses (including the mysterious Alpha Track), and Cher gets drunk. Real drunk. But will Cher be too drunk to help Javier fend off a murderbot! That's right, the murderbots have arrived and Javier's life will never be the same. Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend. Each episode is also titled after something from Cher's musical catalogue. Why? Because it's Cher, duh. Please note: While Parasitecology is a comedy, it incorporates the serious and, for us, highly personal topic of mental health, including dealing with anxiety, depression and suicide. If you or a loved one is at risk of self-harm, please: get help and call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255. Parasitecology was created by Alan Gallauresi and Rob Trevino, who also created Interrupted Tales, a weekly podcast where one of them reads a vintage or pulp story while the other person constantly interrupts.   All of their podcasts can be found at https://ohthehumanity.com.

We have a guest! This is not a drill, people, put the plastic on your couch and set out a bowl of nuts because Shawn Ennis from the excellent Stories of Yore and Yours podcast has come to shame Rob and Alan with his ability to read and sound good-like with words and stuff! Yes, we have a guest reader and that means TWICE the interruptions! TWICE the references to 90s TV shows that may or may not have existed! And (somehow), THRICE the fun! Join us as Shawn beautifully reads the chilling "The Last Stage Coachman", a Tale that harkens back to an earlier time when stagecoaches ruled the land and there were no trains mucking things up with their timely travel and ability to move lots and lots of things. From an 1863 issue of The Illuminated Magazine, this is one of our oldest (and oddest) tales yet. Many thanks to Shawn for being a great sport and putting up with our foolishness. If you aren't already a listener, please find and subscribe to Stories of Yore and Yours (and follow @SYYpodcast on Twitter). Shawn reads complete short stories uninterrupted (imagine that?!) with amazing sound quality, effects, and a voice that I've dubbed "the velvet drizzle". Just soak in it, people, it always feels right. And if you like the idea of more guests, please let us know! A quick scheduling reminder: Our next episode will be in exactly two weeks. On the in-between weeks we are releasing our sci-fi comic audiodrama, Parasitecology. We'll be back weekly after Parasitecology's 14-episode run.

Happy Birthday To Us!  We're celebrating our 2 year anniversary and lots of our favourite podcasters have popped by to say hello! Mum, Stacey and Kipper are all together in Spain. IT means things are just a little crazier than usual.   Find out if Mum would prefer to squeeze spots full of cheese or slugs.  And would she want a tiny head or a giant one?  Depends what type of hat you want wear.   The first guests are Harlo and Colly of Theme Park Films Podcast, and they're joined by their Cabana Boy, Will, of Hey Down In Front Podcast. Next to say howdy is the lovely Chris from the More Gooder Than Podcast.  He has a message for Mum in Spanish, and he really has some nice things to say.  Mum gets a little distracted by his voice though. Dave and Sophie of the podcast, Not For The Dinner Table, have a Guess Who Isn't Coming To Dinner.  Can Mum guess who the dead person they're describing is?  What sort of bubble bath does that dead person use?  And why does David hate Will Young? Next to drive by are Lisa and Sam of I Shake My Head With Lisa and Sam.  They have questions for Kipper and Mum.  Why do cats eat grass?  Only Kipper has the answer. Flying in for a quick hello is Suzy of The Casual Birder Podcast.  But where is she calling from?  And how did she get that bird to sing so well for the recording? The guys from Interrupted Tales have found a photo of Kipper in space with Richard Nixon.  Who knew Kipper was a real astronaut?  Why has Mum joined Grindr? And what happens when Mum finds out Stacey has been working for Rob and Alan on Parasitecology without telling her? Look out for Part Two next week!   The Would You Rather questions were taken from the book by Clint Hammerstrike.  Find it here https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1549535730/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i9   If you want more content and bonus features, subscribe on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/RoughGiraffe.  This week we have extra bits from this episode, as well as outtakes.   Jingles and music are by Stacey and Owen Frost.    Find us on Twitter on @RoughGiraffePod, Instagram @RoughGiraffePodcast, and Facebook (search for Rough Giraffe).  Email us at roughgiraffepodcast@gmail.com   Rough Giraffe is a co-founder and proud member of Brit Pod Scene.  This is a network and podcast highlighting independent British podcasts. www.britpodscene.com. Come join the discussion on Facebook.

EPISODE #5 of Parasitecology! Bonding continues as Cher and Javier go on a hormonal spin around town so Cher can get a feel for its new ride. Plus: ice cream! And what evil lurks beyond the (quite possible) evil of an impending work outing? Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend.

Revenge is a dish best served room temperature in our latest Tale from the January, 1935 issue of Weird Tales magazine: "Death in Twenty Minutes" (or less or your chilling fright is free!). Egyptian mummies, poisonous spiders, and overly thought-out schemes combine for horror so horrific it can only be called horrorable. Plus: Alan updates on his spec script for the Weekend at Bernie's reboot! A quick scheduling reminder: Our next episode will be in exactly two weeks.

EPISODE #4 of Parasitecology! Returning home with far too much food and pine needles, Cher shares with Javier details of his home world and biology as they fire up the FryDaddy. Plus, is this the episode Javier sees real proof of Cher's journey (and existence)?! It just might be. Bonds are made, histories are shared, and- wait. What's that ominous buzzing noise I hear?

In our last episode we told you about your possible future, in this one we remind you of your past! We're happy to present our very first nonfiction Interrupted Tale, an article from Calling All Girls magazine's October, 1960 issue, "So You're Going to Junior High". Everything is covered: Making friends, complicated alphabetical seating arrangements, homework, and, oh, right, scarring you for the rest of your life!

EPISODE #3 of Parasitecology! Cher and Javier venture out into the world for food and other essentials! Once they figure out the minor details of getting dressed, smiling, and deciding what goes down easier on an empty stomach, toothpaste or mouthwash, that is. Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend, which you probably know because this is episode 3 and it would be really weird for you to start here, but, hey: We don't know you.

We hope you enjoyed last week's release of our new darkly comic sci-fi audio drama, Parasitecology, but this week Interrupted Tales returns with futuristic fortune tellers who don't tell your past or future. Instead they tell what might have been if you had chosen a different path! Don't worry, though, your life is still lousy. Ah, well. From Startling Stories magazine from 1955 comes a story with punctuation that will surely break our RSS links: "Have Your Past Read, Mister?" Plus there's a really gross bit about toenails. I mean, that's worth listening to right there. A reminder on scheduling: Our next episode will in exactly two weeks. On the in-between weeks we are releasing Parasitecology. If you want us every week you have two great ways to get us! If you don't want us any weeks well, frankly, I'm surprised you read this far. We'll be back weekly after Parasitecology's 14-episode run.

EPISODE #2 of Parasitecology!  Cher makes Javier an offer and we learn the difference between those who bought Bitcoins early and those who bought Dogecoins late.  Reminiscing about the Matrix.  Plus our first ad!  Yeah, we were surprised too, but I think you're going to love the product! Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend, which kind of spoils the episode to be honest, but -- come on, everybody knows the first episode is like the sweaty effort I put into the elliptical bike in my basement: all setup.   Please note: While Parasitecology is a comedy, it incorporates the serious and, for us, highly personal topic of mental health, including dealing with anxiety, depression and suicide.

FINALLY, Parasitecology has arrived!  In this episode, our protagonist Javier awakens to a new reality and meets his future best friend, Cher Gandhi Statham under -- let's say, grave -- circumstances.  Memories get explored, various nodules and capillaries get squeezed.  It's like a therapy and yearly health checkup all in one!

People of Earth! We heard you like interruptions, so we interrupted your interruptions with... a science fiction audio dramedy?  For one week, this is not Interrupted Tales but a tale that interrupts: Parasitecology!  And this supersized episode is not just the first episode, but a full TWO episodes of the show that you didn't ask for but got anyway!   What is this thing called Parasitecology?  Well, it's a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend, and that's just the beginning.  Literally, that's the beginning of the show, it's the whole premise, and it takes us about two episodes to get there... but don't worry, eventually they both go to a grocery store...

We're back, my little chili babies! After some time off producing our new darkly comic sci-fi audio drama, Parasitecology, Interrupted Tales returns with a Tale of (barely) forbidden love from the March, 1943 issue of Ranch Romances. Maybe "forbidden" isn't the right word for it, perhaps "barely there" is the right one? Anyhoo, it's a hoot and we're excited to be back! This episode features a conversation spurred by The History of Bad Ideas podcast, who you should be subscribing to and following on Twitter at @BadIdeasPodcast. If it's geeky, they've got fun opinions about it. A quick word on scheduling: We are back but changing our frequency for a bit. We'll be switching to new episodes every other Tuesday, with Parasitecology being released the in-between weeks. So if you're getting this when it comes out, you can listen to Parasitecology next Tuesday, and then a new Interrupted Tales the next one. This will last for the 14 episodes of Parasitecology. We do hope you give it a try, it's a sci-fi tale of fugitive aliens that live on your brainstem, depressed IT workers, interplanetary conspiracy, and pizza rolls. If you like it you'll still get us every week! You can follow us on on Twitter @taleinterrupted, Instagram at interruptedtales, and Facebook.

Season One of Parasitecology is nearly upon us!  It's been a long road getting from there (not having a darkly comic SF audiodrama podcast about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend) to here (a metaphysical state where we, indisputably, have a darkly comic SF audiodrama podcast about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend).  Where is Bryan Adams when you need him?  The answer is, of course, Canada. Parasitecology is a darkly comic SF audiodrama about a suicidal nerd and his alien parasite best friend, which you should know by now because we said it three times in 60 seconds.  It was created by Alan Gallauresi and Rob Trevino, who also created Interrupted Tales, a podcast where one of them reads a vintage or pulp story while the other person constantly interrupts.   All of their podcasts can be found at https://ohthehumanity.com.
