GHOSTWOOD 096: "On the Air: Episode 1.5" Is Up!

 
"Now, that's what I call...entertainment."
-- Bud E. Budwaller, On the Air: "Episode 1.5"

It is happening again...My co-host with the most Xan Sprouse and I are back with a new episode of Ghostwood: The Twin Peaks Podcast!  In this episode, we celebrate Twin Peaks' 31st Anniversary, pay tribute to the late Walter Olkewicz, and discuss "Episode 1.5", the third and final transmitted episode of the short-lived ABC sitcom On the Air from 1992, written by Mark Frost and featuring Ian Buchanan as Lester Guy, Miguel Ferrer as Bud E. Budwaller, and David L. Lander as Valdja Gochktch!

LET'S ROCK!

In this episode, Xan and I discuss things like both of us talking longer before our podcast than the actual podcast itself, my voice turning into Barry White's, Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes", actually recording on Twin Peaks' anniversary day, ABC's weird decision to air the pilot of Twin Peaks right after America's Funniest Home Videos, everyone needing to give Xan music for her upcoming 45th birthday, paying tribute to Walter Olkewicz, Richard Beymer & Russ Tamblyn appearing in West Side Story, the obscure '80s Dungeons & Dragons TV series Wizards and Warriors, The Bermuda Depths. Chuck McCann on Far Out Space Nuts, Anne Bloom as Parker Lewis' mom on Parker Lewis Can't Lose, the Blue Beetle on The Electric Company, Buster Keaton, the Doctor Who parody The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot, Lester flirting with Sylvia Hudson, Betty's stuffed dog tissue box holder, Budwaller chosing to focus the camera on Mr. Peanuts crying, the entire cast singing the Mr. Peanuts song, Xan's old mixtapes, Jesse Jackson vomiting during the recording of Next Stop Everywhere, Xan having a panic attack thinking about Captain Jack Harkness buried alive, where you can watch the 1993 David Lynch anthology series Hotel Room, Xan obsessing over the new Mystery Science Theater 3000 Kickstarter, and more!
