	🎸 ♥ 8:57pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ahoy!
	9:03pm Charles: One final trip to Dimension X x x ₓ ...
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Austin Rich: I keep having connection issues... I have no idea why? Nothing has changed...
	♥ 9:05pm MHLee: Make sure BUTT hasn't changed you bitrate
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: I'll keep an eye on it, but I do appologize! This doesn't usually happen, since I upgraded my set-up.
	9:05pm Mr Fab: just refreshed , and we're back. Glad I didn't miss an "box 13."
	9:05pm Charles: Everything sounds fine now. The mutation fest promo skipped a bit for me though.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: This is one of my favorite Box 13 Episodes, too! And one of the last.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:05 We'll hear it again.
	9:07pm Charles: Suzy has no time for tomfoolery.
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Archimedes and The Roman"" by "Box 13" Another episode in the long tradition of Dan taking cases from kids.
	🎸 ♥ 9:08pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: I'd takes less time to say, kid.
	♥ 9:09pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:07 There's an animated batman episode where batman spends most of episode unconscious in the kids basement
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: Dan not wanting to climb a tree sort of cracks me up. I think about wanting to climb trees all the time, but I'm not sure I would just walk off a "fall" like I did when I was a kid.
	♥ 9:09pm MHLee: The Kid has to deal with some batman villains... that series really alternated between darkness and light
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:09 I sort of like that episode. I was re-watching that series with my niece, because she asked to see Batman, and that show was perfect for a 5 year old.
	9:10pm Charles: It's quite a cute scene im picturing, Dan sitting in a tiny kids tree house.
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:10 I like to imagine that Dan is very polite in that tee house, too. I'm sure he defers to the kid.
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Charles @9:10 Crouched down with his head almost touching the ceiling
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: Tree house, pardon.
	♥ 9:11pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 I was rewatching it recently. I think December. It's a good series.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:11 I have ALMOST bought a BluRay of the series a few times. I watching it all new when it was coming out, and really liked it as a teen.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:11 Exactly!
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: There are only two more episodes of Box 13 after this one. Then we'll debut a new show: Candy Matson!
	♥ 9:17pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:12 I caught it as reruns. It ends the year before I was born
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:17 Doesn't matter how old you are, good Batman is good Batman. My 5 year old niece thought so, and it was a show from several decades before she was born.
	♥ 9:19pm MHLee: The neo-noir setting means it doesn't really age
	🎸 ♥ 9:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:19 For the Animated Batman series? I quite like it, but I do like outdated media...
	9:21pm Charles: Quick, I've got the Tree House on speed dial!
	♥ 9:21pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:20 Yes, it's both the 30s and the future.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Clever, Dan. Very clever. But how clever?
	🎸 ♥ 9:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:21 I do remember that at times, there's dirigibles and art deco design, and at other times, Cable TV and computers. It's a real mish-mash, and I sort of like it. Feels... out of time.
	♥ 9:23pm MHLee: The robber wants to sit up here for days
	9:23pm Charles: You should invite that Marty kid to Midvalley Mutations Austin. Do a morse show, he's good.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Heather Z: ↳ MHLee @9:23 He always wanted a tree house and now he's finally in one is what I like to think.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: The only thing that is unbelievable about this episode is that this crook would probably just shoot everyone right away. I'm not sure why he would let anyone talk about much as Dan has in a situation like this.
	🎸 ♥ 9:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:23 I'm game. How do I signal him? Is he on Ham Radio at nights?
	♥ 9:25pm MHLee: Did that dude he shot earlier die yet?
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:24 I always wanted a tree house. I sort of still do... but with a recording studio inside.
	♥ 9:26pm MHLee: I guess not
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Did Dan just invent the Total Perspective Vortex?
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:26 Sort of sounds like it...
	9:27pm Mr Fab: "Sometimes I go look up at the stars at night and think about how insignificant you all are." -Andy Breckman
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: Can anyone guess how this ends yet?
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:27 Ha!
	9:28pm Charles: THERE'S NO CODE IN THIS I LOOKED!
	♥ 9:28pm MHLee: There's definitely no comet
	🎸 ♥ 9:28pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Its the wrong night for Haley's comet.
	♥ 9:30pm MHLee: How will ted be alright?
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:30 ... and they rush him to the Doctor, off-mic.
	9:30pm Mr Fab: got interrupted by a phone call, What was the silly message?
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:30 "Watch for a comet tonight."
	♥ 9:31pm MHLee: man was shot offscreen and injured for two days and sat there okay
	9:32pm Mr Fab: Suzy knows how many comets there are, and how many are discovered each year?!
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: "Good Night, Suzy!" A good old Haley's Comet story. You don't see those everyday.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:32 She's smarter than we think.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ MHLee @9:31 Shot with a derringer?
	♥ 9:33pm MHLee: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:32 Ted is the world's sturdiest astronomer
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: Bold Venture, of course, features music by David Rose. David Rose, of course, is probably most famous for writing, "The Stripper."
	9:34pm Charles: He's 95% stardust.
	♥ 9:36pm MHLee: It's kinda funny he didn't even get a speaking part
	🎸 ♥ 9:36pm Austin Rich: I have a feeling that, between Slate and Sailor, Slate is more likely to cry that Sailor. She seems pretty tough, and he seems pretty sentimental.
	9:37pm Charles: True that.
	♥ 9:38pm MHLee: Kinda and intense opener
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: A few years later and Gilligan would have found them
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: Bold Venture has a way of sort of giving you "tonal whiplash." It's funny, it's dramatic, people suddenly die, then there's a ton of jokes... It's sort of an odd show, in a lot of ways.
	♥ 9:39pm MHLee: People are casually shooting down planes here
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:38 I mean, sure, you COULD go back home, but I have to say, the Professor had that Island decked out pretty well. Seems like I wouldn't mind staying for a while.
	♥ 9:41pm MHLee: There was a sims game back when I was in middle school that was the sims but gillgans island.... half sims half survival game
	♥ 9:41pm MHLee: Really good game tbh
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 They rediscovered paradise on Rescue from Gilligan's Island.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:41 That sort of sounds like the kind of game I'd like.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ MHLee @9:41 Castaways. Never played, but looked like fun
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:41 I don't know if I ever saw that one.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:42 They get washed into the shipping lanes by a storm.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm Austin Rich: "I am Pablo who does not talk to police." I need to sample that.
	♥ 9:46pm MHLee: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:42 Had it on the Wii. I would play it again. I guess I'm getting old because I do a lot of nostalgia gaming now
	♥ 9:46pm MHLee: I've been meaning to sample a bizarre youtube channel for years but am too busy
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:46 One of the last two video games I played was Super Mario Bros. II on the original NES, and the very first Legend of Zelda. My wife and I have been talking about tag-teaming a re-play of Zelda, as I remember that being a LOT of fun.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:46 That is my excuse, too.
	9:48pm Mr Fab: Both today's Box 13 and this one has lots of choice bad guy/henchman dialogue. Those 'You want I should woik him over, boss?' type guys.
	🎸 ♥ 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:48 I love watching old movies and listening to old radio for dialog to swipe.
	♥ 9:49pm MHLee: A lot of it generic enough it could be repurposed... there's a bill muarry film made out of all archival footage
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:47 I only have limited games or I would consider posting gaming vidz
	🎸 ♥ 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:49 Craig Baldwin makes movies that way, all re-contextulized video samples. Vicki Bennett / People Like Us do it, but on a very big scale, in a very cool way.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: "My guardian." Uhm, you make out with him at the end of every episode, Sailor. Just sayin'.
	♥ 9:52pm MHLee: What war was he fighting in with the bandits?
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:52 Mostly likely WWII, given this was set in 1951.
	♥ 9:52pm MHLee: Spanish Civil War? I mean, I assume WWII but with bandits
	9:53pm wenzo: Hellloooo
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ MHLee @9:52 Mombasa?
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Thinking Roland.
	9:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @9:50 We were talking about "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" on Wendy Stonehenge's show this morn after he played "King Tut." An early example of film "sampling."
	♥ 9:56pm MHLee: ↳ Mr Fab @9:55 That was the film I was thinking of
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:55 That movie is very good. Been years! I should re-watch it.
	♥ 9:59pm MHLee: This is saucy
	🎸 ♥ 10:02pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Sent those lyrics, Austin
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Toad the Wet Sprocket was a Monty Python joke that came true
	♥ 10:08pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Bumble Boogie" by "Freddy Martin (Jack Fina, piano)" There's a rock boogie version of this from the next decade
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: EC comics did a few Asimov stories. And Bradbury.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Fight of the Bumblebee
	♥ 10:10pm MHLee: Bumble Boogie - B. Bumble & the Stingers
	♥ 10:11pm MHLee: Actually credited to Jack Fina on the record, interesting
	♥ 10:12pm MHLee: Dragnet
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:49 I'm lurking and enjoying the show! Skipped painting tonight because work is making me really earn my pay these past few weeks, phew! Hi everyone! Nice to wind down lurking this evening!
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:10 That wasn't just for you Imaginos, but Hi! I'm really wiped tonight, I guess!
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: While I do appreciate that Ken Burns has blown up, as a documentarian, in the years since, I do miss the days of PBS when his docs were on a lot more, as he did a lot of random ones that have sort of disappeared, or have become harder to see, because he has become so well known.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Heather Z @10:13 Exhausting day?
	♥ 10:15pm MHLee: The Shadow, I've tried to read as many shadow comics as possible. I've read all the 70s DC ones. There's actually quite a fun one called The Twilight Zone: The Shadow which has the shadow's various fictional and real life indenties shifting together
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:15 I have a few of that 70's DC run! I have a soft spot for The Shadow, too. Good stuff!
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Good thing lawnmowers were silent back then
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:14 Totally! But that's what they pay me for...
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:17 I had a push-mower, for a while. It was a lot more work than I was used to.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:18 I have two of those and they are a .... reel.... workout!
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:18 Rotating push mowers never stall out and never run out of fuel
	♥ 10:19pm MHLee: Really enjoy how eerie the theme of this is
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:19 Well, I run out of fuel. But certainly they are much harder to "break."
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:19 Korla Pandit did all the music for Chandu, The Magician. en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 10:21pm MHLee: Reminds me, I think I watched the original mummy in October
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:21 That original Mummy is SO GOOD.
	🎸 ♥ 10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Last mummy I enjoyed was Dor.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:22 Bobby McFadden & Dor?
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:23 Yeah. Mummy meets Beatnik.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:23 I have that 45! The B-Side, "The Beat Generation," is pretty hilarious. (I have a soft-spot for all those Beatnik records.)
	♥ 10:25pm MHLee: The Beat Generation was covered very well on Tales of the New West by the Beat Farmers
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:25 Hell yeah! Beat Farmers don't get nearly enough love these days.
	10:26pm Mr Fab: ↳ MHLee @10:25 and ripped off by Richard Hell! ("Blank Generation")
	♥ 10:26pm MHLee: Joe Montana died too soon
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:26 I regularly blow minds by playing that Beat Generation record for people, who suddenly realized that Richard Hell ripped it off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ancient cults?
	🎸 ♥ 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:28 I should get T-Shirts made that say, "You had me at 'Ancient Cults.'"
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Drop stones. They won't get eaten
	🎸 ♥ 10:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Dozing but still listening.
	10:33pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:29 ha!
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:33 Sleep well, if you fall asleep.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: Of course, the last episode of Dimension X addresses a story about... the end of the world.
	♥ 10:38pm MHLee: Tbh, the native america chants are a bit odd thematically
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:26 Did he die, and I just didn't realize it?
	♥ 10:38pm MHLee: Much prefer the hymn music from Beneath the Planet of the Apes
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:38 Yeah, and they are supposed to be a religious cult, too.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:35 I will.
	♥ 10:39pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @10:38 Sorry I meant Country Dick Montana
	♥ 10:40pm MHLee: That was me crossing Country Dick Montana, Country Joe McDonald, and Joe Montana
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:39 That makes more sense now that I think about it, given what were talking about. Ha! I like your thought process.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: Even more pointedly: they are adapting this story, about all the lights going out, on a medium without any visual reference. It's like the Dimension X crew want to highlight that Science Fiction works very well on radio, and it was a bad idea to cancel the show.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Heather Z: They need some of those silent curtain runners, that's for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: The implication that when the lights go out, that people will go mad = fans will get upset when the show is off the air.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:43 We can't all live the high life.
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Heather Z: Mr. Theremin!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: While I can't find any explicit evidence to underline that this IS the case, it seems clear to me that the choice to dramatize Nightfall as the last Dimension X episode was VERY intentional.
	♥ 10:46pm MHLee: This is a wild premise
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: I also think about this episode, in regards to the way people used to say that you would go insane if you had to isolate due to a pandemic. Then... we all had to isolate due to a pandemic, and none of us went mad. Or, that mad, anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:46 Yeah, this is one of my favorite episodes. It's VERY memorable.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: "They've always been shoutin' about doom and sin." "Same as it ever was."
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:49 I like this man on the street guy. Two Ls!
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: Of course the people won't believe the scientific truth... sounds very familiar, now.
	♥ 10:51pm MHLee: A little heaven's gatey
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:51 This story is from the 40s, I believe. But it reads like todays news.
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Heather Z: Sometimes it's comforting that nothing changes. Sometimes? Not so much.
	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 (Originally published: 1941.)
	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 Well, that does mean that everyone after us will also feel the same doom we do? I guess?
	♥ 10:53pm MHLee: 97 years prior evangelists gathered in mass for the end of world in the Great Disappointment
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: Regular people will hate science, and try to destroy it? Meanwhile... what's that news story about all the people destroying substations locally?
	🎸 ♥ 10:54pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:52 I can't tell the future, of course, but my nihilistic self says yes.
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Austin Rich: We're gonna run over this week. Sorry everyone! About six minutes over.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:55 Run over more!! We love it!
	♥ 10:56pm MHLee: TBH I'd join the cult. Seems fun at the end of all civilization
	♥ 10:57pm MHLee: @Austin, this reminds me, I'd love to work with you on something from the Yellow King sometime in future. Put that on a back burner
	🎸 ♥ 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:56 I'd join one of those cults where we believe in strong internet service, three day work weeks, employee-owned businesses, and snow days.
	♥ 10:57pm MHLee: This reminds me of Carcosia
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 I'm not much of a joiner but I might join that one. As long as we have cats?
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:58 Oh yeah, I think cats run that cult. I'm game.
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: You can actually hear the soundtrack using a Theramin, in an episode with a character of the same name.
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:59 I welcome our cat overlords! Or, wait. I already did!
	♥ 11:02pm MHLee: Lovecraftian almost
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @11:02 Probably the only place that Asimov and Lovecraft intersect.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone for joining for this one! It really is one of my favorites. See ya'll next week.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Heather Z: Great stuff! Thanks Austin and everyone! Goodnight, all!
	♥ 11:03pm MHLee: Thanks so much Austin
	11:04pm Mr Fab: Thanks for all these episodes of ...Dimension X! X! X! x! x!...
	🎸 ♥ 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:04 I love the optimism the announcer has, regarding the possibility that there might be another series... not for four more years!
	11:06pm Mr Fab: "Going Under"= one of my first fave Devo songs.
	🎸 ♥ 11:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:06 It's the best!
	🎸 ♥ 11:07pm Austin Rich: And now Tim Maloney is playing! I love it!

	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Charles @9:10 Crouched down with his head almost touching the ceiling
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: Tree house, pardon.
	♥ 9:11pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 I was rewatching it recently. I think December. It's a good series.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:11 I have ALMOST bought a BluRay of the series a few times. I watching it all new when it was coming out, and really liked it as a teen.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:11 Exactly!
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: There are only two more episodes of Box 13 after this one. Then we'll debut a new show: Candy Matson!
	♥ 9:17pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:12 I caught it as reruns. It ends the year before I was born
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:17 Doesn't matter how old you are, good Batman is good Batman. My 5 year old niece thought so, and it was a show from several decades before she was born.
	♥ 9:19pm MHLee: The neo-noir setting means it doesn't really age
	🎸 ♥ 9:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:19 For the Animated Batman series? I quite like it, but I do like outdated media...
	9:21pm Charles: Quick, I've got the Tree House on speed dial!
	♥ 9:21pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @9:20 Yes, it's both the 30s and the future.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Clever, Dan. Very clever. But how clever?
	🎸 ♥ 9:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:21 I do remember that at times, there's dirigibles and art deco design, and at other times, Cable TV and computers. It's a real mish-mash, and I sort of like it. Feels... out of time.
	♥ 9:23pm MHLee: The robber wants to sit up here for days
	9:23pm Charles: You should invite that Marty kid to Midvalley Mutations Austin. Do a morse show, he's good.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Heather Z: ↳ MHLee @9:23 He always wanted a tree house and now he's finally in one is what I like to think.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: The only thing that is unbelievable about this episode is that this crook would probably just shoot everyone right away. I'm not sure why he would let anyone talk about much as Dan has in a situation like this.
	🎸 ♥ 9:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:23 I'm game. How do I signal him? Is he on Ham Radio at nights?
	♥ 9:25pm MHLee: Did that dude he shot earlier die yet?
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:24 I always wanted a tree house. I sort of still do... but with a recording studio inside.
	♥ 9:26pm MHLee: I guess not
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Did Dan just invent the Total Perspective Vortex?
	🎸 ♥ 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:26 Sort of sounds like it...
	9:27pm Mr Fab: "Sometimes I go look up at the stars at night and think about how insignificant you all are." -Andy Breckman
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: Can anyone guess how this ends yet?
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:27 Ha!
	9:28pm Charles: THERE'S NO CODE IN THIS I LOOKED!
	♥ 9:28pm MHLee: There's definitely no comet
	🎸 ♥ 9:28pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Its the wrong night for Haley's comet.
	♥ 9:30pm MHLee: How will ted be alright?
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:30 ... and they rush him to the Doctor, off-mic.
	9:30pm Mr Fab: got interrupted by a phone call, What was the silly message?
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:30 "Watch for a comet tonight."
	♥ 9:31pm MHLee: man was shot offscreen and injured for two days and sat there okay
	9:32pm Mr Fab: Suzy knows how many comets there are, and how many are discovered each year?!
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: "Good Night, Suzy!" A good old Haley's Comet story. You don't see those everyday.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:32 She's smarter than we think.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ MHLee @9:31 Shot with a derringer?
	♥ 9:33pm MHLee: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:32 Ted is the world's sturdiest astronomer
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: Bold Venture, of course, features music by David Rose. David Rose, of course, is probably most famous for writing, "The Stripper."
	9:34pm Charles: He's 95% stardust.
	♥ 9:36pm MHLee: It's kinda funny he didn't even get a speaking part
	🎸 ♥ 9:36pm Austin Rich: I have a feeling that, between Slate and Sailor, Slate is more likely to cry that Sailor. She seems pretty tough, and he seems pretty sentimental.
	9:37pm Charles: True that.
	♥ 9:38pm MHLee: Kinda and intense opener
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: A few years later and Gilligan would have found them
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: Bold Venture has a way of sort of giving you "tonal whiplash." It's funny, it's dramatic, people suddenly die, then there's a ton of jokes... It's sort of an odd show, in a lot of ways.
	♥ 9:39pm MHLee: People are casually shooting down planes here
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:38 I mean, sure, you COULD go back home, but I have to say, the Professor had that Island decked out pretty well. Seems like I wouldn't mind staying for a while.
	♥ 9:41pm MHLee: There was a sims game back when I was in middle school that was the sims but gillgans island.... half sims half survival game
	♥ 9:41pm MHLee: Really good game tbh
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 They rediscovered paradise on Rescue from Gilligan's Island.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:41 That sort of sounds like the kind of game I'd like.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ MHLee @9:41 Castaways. Never played, but looked like fun
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:41 I don't know if I ever saw that one.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:42 They get washed into the shipping lanes by a storm.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44pm Austin Rich: "I am Pablo who does not talk to police." I need to sample that.
	♥ 9:46pm MHLee: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:42 Had it on the Wii. I would play it again. I guess I'm getting old because I do a lot of nostalgia gaming now
	♥ 9:46pm MHLee: I've been meaning to sample a bizarre youtube channel for years but am too busy
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:46 One of the last two video games I played was Super Mario Bros. II on the original NES, and the very first Legend of Zelda. My wife and I have been talking about tag-teaming a re-play of Zelda, as I remember that being a LOT of fun.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:46 That is my excuse, too.
	9:48pm Mr Fab: Both today's Box 13 and this one has lots of choice bad guy/henchman dialogue. Those 'You want I should woik him over, boss?' type guys.
	🎸 ♥ 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:48 I love watching old movies and listening to old radio for dialog to swipe.
	♥ 9:49pm MHLee: A lot of it generic enough it could be repurposed... there's a bill muarry film made out of all archival footage
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:47 I only have limited games or I would consider posting gaming vidz
	🎸 ♥ 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:49 Craig Baldwin makes movies that way, all re-contextulized video samples. Vicki Bennett / People Like Us do it, but on a very big scale, in a very cool way.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: "My guardian." Uhm, you make out with him at the end of every episode, Sailor. Just sayin'.
	♥ 9:52pm MHLee: What war was he fighting in with the bandits?
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:52 Mostly likely WWII, given this was set in 1951.
	♥ 9:52pm MHLee: Spanish Civil War? I mean, I assume WWII but with bandits
	9:53pm wenzo: Hellloooo
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ MHLee @9:52 Mombasa?
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Thinking Roland.
	9:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @9:50 We were talking about "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" on Wendy Stonehenge's show this morn after he played "King Tut." An early example of film "sampling."
	♥ 9:56pm MHLee: ↳ Mr Fab @9:55 That was the film I was thinking of
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:55 That movie is very good. Been years! I should re-watch it.
	♥ 9:59pm MHLee: This is saucy
	🎸 ♥ 10:02pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Sent those lyrics, Austin
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Toad the Wet Sprocket was a Monty Python joke that came true
	♥ 10:08pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "Bumble Boogie" by "Freddy Martin (Jack Fina, piano)" There's a rock boogie version of this from the next decade
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: EC comics did a few Asimov stories. And Bradbury.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Fight of the Bumblebee
	♥ 10:10pm MHLee: Bumble Boogie - B. Bumble & the Stingers
	♥ 10:11pm MHLee: Actually credited to Jack Fina on the record, interesting
	♥ 10:12pm MHLee: Dragnet
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:49 I'm lurking and enjoying the show! Skipped painting tonight because work is making me really earn my pay these past few weeks, phew! Hi everyone! Nice to wind down lurking this evening!
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:10 That wasn't just for you Imaginos, but Hi! I'm really wiped tonight, I guess!
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: While I do appreciate that Ken Burns has blown up, as a documentarian, in the years since, I do miss the days of PBS when his docs were on a lot more, as he did a lot of random ones that have sort of disappeared, or have become harder to see, because he has become so well known.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Heather Z @10:13 Exhausting day?
	♥ 10:15pm MHLee: The Shadow, I've tried to read as many shadow comics as possible. I've read all the 70s DC ones. There's actually quite a fun one called The Twilight Zone: The Shadow which has the shadow's various fictional and real life indenties shifting together
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:15 I have a few of that 70's DC run! I have a soft spot for The Shadow, too. Good stuff!
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Good thing lawnmowers were silent back then
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:14 Totally! But that's what they pay me for...
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:17 I had a push-mower, for a while. It was a lot more work than I was used to.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:18 I have two of those and they are a .... reel.... workout!
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:18 Rotating push mowers never stall out and never run out of fuel
	♥ 10:19pm MHLee: Really enjoy how eerie the theme of this is
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:19 Well, I run out of fuel. But certainly they are much harder to "break."
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:19 Korla Pandit did all the music for Chandu, The Magician. en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 10:21pm MHLee: Reminds me, I think I watched the original mummy in October
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:21 That original Mummy is SO GOOD.
	🎸 ♥ 10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Last mummy I enjoyed was Dor.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:22 Bobby McFadden & Dor?
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:23 Yeah. Mummy meets Beatnik.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:23 I have that 45! The B-Side, "The Beat Generation," is pretty hilarious. (I have a soft-spot for all those Beatnik records.)
	♥ 10:25pm MHLee: The Beat Generation was covered very well on Tales of the New West by the Beat Farmers
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:25 Hell yeah! Beat Farmers don't get nearly enough love these days.
	10:26pm Mr Fab: ↳ MHLee @10:25 and ripped off by Richard Hell! ("Blank Generation")
	♥ 10:26pm MHLee: Joe Montana died too soon
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:26 I regularly blow minds by playing that Beat Generation record for people, who suddenly realized that Richard Hell ripped it off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ancient cults?
	🎸 ♥ 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:28 I should get T-Shirts made that say, "You had me at 'Ancient Cults.'"
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Drop stones. They won't get eaten
	🎸 ♥ 10:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Dozing but still listening.
	10:33pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:29 ha!
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:33 Sleep well, if you fall asleep.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: Of course, the last episode of Dimension X addresses a story about... the end of the world.
	♥ 10:38pm MHLee: Tbh, the native america chants are a bit odd thematically
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:26 Did he die, and I just didn't realize it?
	♥ 10:38pm MHLee: Much prefer the hymn music from Beneath the Planet of the Apes
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:38 Yeah, and they are supposed to be a religious cult, too.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:35 I will.
	♥ 10:39pm MHLee: ↳ Austin Rich @10:38 Sorry I meant Country Dick Montana
	♥ 10:40pm MHLee: That was me crossing Country Dick Montana, Country Joe McDonald, and Joe Montana
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:39 That makes more sense now that I think about it, given what were talking about. Ha! I like your thought process.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: Even more pointedly: they are adapting this story, about all the lights going out, on a medium without any visual reference. It's like the Dimension X crew want to highlight that Science Fiction works very well on radio, and it was a bad idea to cancel the show.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Heather Z: They need some of those silent curtain runners, that's for sure.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: The implication that when the lights go out, that people will go mad = fans will get upset when the show is off the air.
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:43 We can't all live the high life.
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Heather Z: Mr. Theremin!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: While I can't find any explicit evidence to underline that this IS the case, it seems clear to me that the choice to dramatize Nightfall as the last Dimension X episode was VERY intentional.
	♥ 10:46pm MHLee: This is a wild premise
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: I also think about this episode, in regards to the way people used to say that you would go insane if you had to isolate due to a pandemic. Then... we all had to isolate due to a pandemic, and none of us went mad. Or, that mad, anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:46 Yeah, this is one of my favorite episodes. It's VERY memorable.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: "They've always been shoutin' about doom and sin." "Same as it ever was."
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:49 I like this man on the street guy. Two Ls!
	🎸 ♥ 10:50pm Austin Rich: Of course the people won't believe the scientific truth... sounds very familiar, now.
	♥ 10:51pm MHLee: A little heaven's gatey
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:51 This story is from the 40s, I believe. But it reads like todays news.
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Heather Z: Sometimes it's comforting that nothing changes. Sometimes? Not so much.
	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 (Originally published: 1941.)
	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 Well, that does mean that everyone after us will also feel the same doom we do? I guess?
	♥ 10:53pm MHLee: 97 years prior evangelists gathered in mass for the end of world in the Great Disappointment
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: Regular people will hate science, and try to destroy it? Meanwhile... what's that news story about all the people destroying substations locally?
	🎸 ♥ 10:54pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:52 I can't tell the future, of course, but my nihilistic self says yes.
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Austin Rich: We're gonna run over this week. Sorry everyone! About six minutes over.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:55 Run over more!! We love it!
	♥ 10:56pm MHLee: TBH I'd join the cult. Seems fun at the end of all civilization
	♥ 10:57pm MHLee: @Austin, this reminds me, I'd love to work with you on something from the Yellow King sometime in future. Put that on a back burner
	🎸 ♥ 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @10:56 I'd join one of those cults where we believe in strong internet service, three day work weeks, employee-owned businesses, and snow days.
	♥ 10:57pm MHLee: This reminds me of Carcosia
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 I'm not much of a joiner but I might join that one. As long as we have cats?
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:58 Oh yeah, I think cats run that cult. I'm game.
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: You can actually hear the soundtrack using a Theramin, in an episode with a character of the same name.
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:59 I welcome our cat overlords! Or, wait. I already did!
	♥ 11:02pm MHLee: Lovecraftian almost
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @11:02 Probably the only place that Asimov and Lovecraft intersect.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone for joining for this one! It really is one of my favorites. See ya'll next week.
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Heather Z: Great stuff! Thanks Austin and everyone! Goodnight, all!
	♥ 11:03pm MHLee: Thanks so much Austin
	11:04pm Mr Fab: Thanks for all these episodes of ...Dimension X! X! X! x! x!...
	🎸 ♥ 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:04 I love the optimism the announcer has, regarding the possibility that there might be another series... not for four more years!
	11:06pm Mr Fab: "Going Under"= one of my first fave Devo songs.
	🎸 ♥ 11:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @11:06 It's the best!
	🎸 ♥ 11:07pm Austin Rich: And now Tim Maloney is playing! I love it!
