POPULARITY
The sounds of American roots music – folk ballads, fiddle tunes, early blues, New Orleans second line grooves – may seem like they belong to another century. But the NY-based collective called Too Sad For The Public takes those old songs and remakes them, often in surprising ways. Too Sad For The Public's arranger and producer Dick Connette, along with a sextet version of the band featuring vocalist Ana Egge, play some of the tunes from the latest album, Vol. 2, Yet And Still, in-studio. Set list: 1. Railroad Bill 2. Old Forty

On today's episode, I talk to musician Joe Jack Talcum. Originally from Wagontown, PA, Joe Genaro AKA Joe Jack Talcum is the guitarist and co-lead singer of the seminal punk band The Dead Milkmen. Formed out of his home recording project dating back to the late '70s, the group didn't really coalesce until Joe went to college at Temple University. Starting with 1985's Big Lizard in My Backyard, they recorded dozens of albums and EPs, and though they broke up in 1995, they've reunited a number of times since for various shows. Outside of The Dead Milkmen, Joe is prolific, recording a number of albums on his own and with groups like The Low Budgets. His latest album Joe Jack Talcum sings Railroad Bill and Other Songs was just released late last year! This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, follow me on Twitter.

In this episode Lee and Daniel talk about three short silent films from the 1900s - two of which, at the very least, are considered highly influential classic of cinema. The films are "A Trip to the Moon" (1902); "The Great Train Robbery" (1903); and "The Airship Destroyer" (1909). Some brief background information about what film was and how it was watched in this era is covered, before getting into a fun conversation about the merits and limitations of these three pioneers of what we all know to be film today. "A Trip to the Moon" IMDB "The Great Train Robbery" IMDB "The Airship Destroyer" IMDB Visit the fun Euro horror-centric Mondo Squallido. Featured Music: "Shine On, Harvest Moon" by Ada Jones and Billy Murray; "Railroad Bill" by Walt Robertson; and "Child of the Moon" by The Rolling Stones.

The store is open again! It's hard to describe how much stuff this store sells. Suffice to say, it makes Walmart look like a little mom and pop shop. Amazon is a little start up company compared to this store. No point describing what they have, you gotta hear it for yourself. Also, Andy Breckman is doing a hilarious song called "Railroad Bill," and Steve and Harry sing "Side By Side" as a duet.
Today we have a breaking story about a photograph that I found. Then we tell tall tales about the American Robin Hood known as Railroad Bill, and is there a dark force in Gillingham, England that sows chaos and fear by taking the lives of children? I found a photo while I was out walking today. It’s most likely nothing, or possibly a joke. But the fact it has a striking resemblance to a famous photo taken by a serial killer makes it at least seem suspicious. Then we travel to the Deep South in the late 1800s, where a train robber (and possibly shapeshifter) tormented a local railroad and became a folk legend. And finally we visit Gillingham in England. Two tragedies separated by 22 years and racking up a massive death toll among children may point to something sinister and supernatural residing in this otherwise peaceful town. 24 Things You Need To Know About Regina Kay Walters, Robert Ben Rhoades, And The Most Terrifying Photograph Of All Time https://thoughtcatalog.com/christine-stockton/2018/08/things-you-need-to-know-about-regina-kay-walters-robert-ben-rhoades-and-the-most-terrifying-photograph-of-all-time/ National Directory Of Haunted Places https://amzn.to/2RWNccX Railroad Bill https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railroad_Bill Railroad Bill http://www.encyclopediaofalabama.org/article/h-1258 The Legend of Railroad Bill - Alabama's Robin Hood http://hauntedhaven.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-legend-of-railroad-bill-alabamas.html Railroad Bill by Ramblin Jack Elliott https://genius.com/Ramblin-jack-elliott-railroad-bill-lyrics Gillingham Fair fire disaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillingham_Fair_fire_disaster The Fireman's Wedding https://www.historicmedway.co.uk/localdisasters/firemans_wedding.htm The Gillingham Fair Fire Disaster: A Firefighting Demonstration Gone Horribly Wrong https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/the-gillingham-fair-fire-disaster-a-firefighting-demonstration-gone-horribly-wrong.html The Fireman's Wedding Disaster http://firemanswedding.weebly.com/ Gillingham Fair fire disaster https://www.revolvy.com/page/Gillingham-Fair-fire-disaster Gillingham bus disaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillingham_bus_disaster Listen to the daily podcast anywhere you listen to podcasts! ------------------------------------------------ Logo Art By Ash Black "As Above" Art By Grant Scott Opening Song: "Atlantis Attacks" Closing Song: "Bella Royale" Music By Dr. Huxxxtable http://www.DeadRabbit.com Email: DeadRabbitRadio@gmail.com Twitter: @JasonOCarpenter Facebook: www.Facebook.com/DeadRabbitRadio Paranormal, Conspiracy, and True Crime news as it happens!
