Every year on Ron's Amazing Stories we turn to the macabre and take a look at the dark side. We call this The Month Of Spooky. In this episode it is all about the doll. That cute and cuddly creature that is stuff of nightmares. Movies like Child's Play or Annabelle have turned these figurines of joy into menaces and harbingers of evil. What we have are three doll stories sent in by you; An Elsa doll, Gramma's favorite doll, and a jealous Clown Doll. Then we will play one of the top 31 scariest stories from the golden age of radio. It came in at number 15 and while not exactly a doll story it does explore one possible origin of the Wax Mannequin. Featured Story - Evening Primrose Our featured story comes from the OTR series Escape starring William Conrad. A penniless poet, played by Eliot Lewis, decides to move into a department store and live in ease and comfort off of its inventory. He didn't bargain for the race of pale mutants who already live there. Or for how they dispose of anyone who rebels against them. The story is titled Evening Primrose and first aired November 5, 1947. Other Stories Include - Murder In A Turkish Bath, Halloween Folklore & Festivities, The Haunted Doll, Gramma's Doll, The Clown Doll, and Evening Primrose.

This is my 100th episode! For this very special episode, I interview one of my favourite musicians and dear friends, Wax Mannequin. Wax Mannequin is the perfect 100th guest - he's been performing online nearly every Friday since this pandemic began, forming my pandemic soundtrack in the biggest and most meaningful way. A little piece of creative comfort in a time of unknowns. Today we talk about these shows, about Wax's journey to sobriety and how it's impacted his physical and mental health, about creative practices and about our strange brains and how this pandemic may have shifted the world just enough to give our unusual brains a chance to thrive - in Wax Mannequin's words, "Having a strange brain isn't a problem in strange times. It's an advantage. We who -- because of our wiring -- had difficulty internalizing traditional social norms, have had a lot of practice finding our way against some odds. Now there are fewer, more sensible norms. In the new anti-social landscape, do you feel a bit superhuman?" Check out Wax's music at waxmannequin.bandcamp.com, and check out his Friday night concert series on Fridays at 7pm at facebook.com/waxmannequin/liveThis interview was originally recorded on Sept. 1st 2020 Get on the email list at bridgingthesocialdistance.substack.com
