For this episode, we learn how she built an expansive career by never saying no to anything new!

A little later on we'll chat about some retro horror movies, but first, Kasey throws us a read from her story "The Disappeared" which appears in the newly released "Deathrealm Spirits" out by Shortwave Publishing!

Check out Kasey's official website!

We hope you enjoy this supplemental mini-episode! This was taken from the unpublished pre-interview from our recent BRIG with veteran actor Andrew Parks!

Not only do you get about 20 minutes of more Andy, you'll be "treated" to some unedited behind the scenes stuff for the podcast itself. Retro Ridoctopus has never published anything like this before and we hope you all dig it!

Retro Ridoctopus - S5E25 - Ep 116: Godzilla: The Eras Tour (1999-2023)
play

12/05/23 • 167 min

To celebrate the release of Godzilla Minus One and Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, we've got an episode so full of kaiju mayhem, we had to split it into two parts!

Back for the conclusion of this epic journey is our buddy Aldo, who continues to flex his superfan knowledge along the way. This time, Nintenjoe and Parasite Steve deliver the goods on the Millennium and MonsterVerse eras respectively, before this journey reaches it's final destination with the films that don't fit so neatly into the larger sections.

Don't worry, we didn't forget Shin!

Retro Ridoctopus - Ep 142: Scooby Doo and the Rut-Roh Ridoctopus
play

12/03/24 • 134 min

Hey gang! It's time to pay tribute to one of the greatest cartoons of all time, so pack some Scooby Snacks, check your flashlight batteries and hop in the Mystery Machine, because this is our tribute to Scooby Doo!

For our penultimate episode of Season 6, Justin Cooper leads us through abandoned amusement parks, haunted mansions and old defunct coal mines, in search of ghouls, ghosts and other phoney baloney creeps that we guarantee with turn out to be dudes in masks. Also, wires and holograms are probably involved.

For part one, we each pick an episode from the original SCOOBY DOO WHERE ARE YOU! (1969). Then, after a monster-filled Octoponder, we'll finish things off in the second half by each spotlighting a different Scooby show that we personally dig.

Like, jinkies! It's gonna be wild, man!

Retro Ridoctopus - Crow's Nest: We Finally Beat Xardion!
play

03/05/24 • 69 min

Xardion isn't exactly a classic of the SNES, but 8-Bit Alchemy & Parasite Steve recently discussed it as one of the games their mother used to love and was actually able to beat. Well, thanks to much perseverance and level grinding, when if comes to this bizarre Run and Gun RPG Platformer, the boys are now (almost) as cool as she was!

This game is weird in a dozen ways, but if you can stick with it long enough and eventually get into the strange rhythm... it's actually a pretty rewarding experience.

This episode is dedicated to someone who has been my second Mother since I was ten years old, Parasite Steve and 8 Bit Alchemy's Mom Nancy.

Please check out Crow's Nest: Our Mom's Favorite Games first as I play the music from the games mentioned in that episode plus some of the music that reminds me of her.

I also share some personal memories and stories I have with Mom (or as I always called her, Other Mother).

Thanks for listening.

We've been huge fans of Andrew Parks, ever since seeing his unforgettable turn as the alien Kro-Bar in Larry Blamire's THE LOST SKELETON OF CADAVRA (2001). It was an incredible privilege to be able to hang out and chat about his extensive career in movies and television!

You'll hear stories about Jimmy Stewart, Angela Landsbury, Jim Beaver and frequent collaborator (not to mention two time BRIG inhabitant), Larry Blamire! We also talk extensively about such irreverent Blamire classics as DARK AND STORMY NIGHT (2009) and of course, TRAIL OF THE SCREAMING FOREHEAD (2007)!

For our last BRIG of season 5, Parasite Steve welcomes an old & dear friend who just happens to be another insanely talented writer!

Morgan Sylvia is an author from Maine with numerous published works including novels, short stories, poetry collections and everything in between. Whether she's writing long or short form, one thing is clear, the quality of the prose itself is always top of mind. This lends a musical quality to the language of her work. A poetic fingerprint that most authors never achieve. In other words, you should be reading her stuff!

Visit her official website for all things Morgan!

Snag your copy of the amazing (deluxe limited edition) Carrion Harvest from Thunderstorm Books!

And check out her author page on Amazon!
