I hauled all my CD's and a healthy stack of vinyl up to the studio for this one. No theme here at all other than a nice selection of '80's and '90's goth and industrial, plus my thoughts on giving Ready or Not a rewatch. I also took a few requests. Enjoy!

After a few weeks off due to snow and ice, it was nice to be back doing spooky tunes. We spent this episode catching up with new releases, and I discussed my thoughts on Send Help.

UK Decay - Battle of the Elements 

With our first regular show of 2026, I'm hitting you with 2 themed sets - one based on the band Lemon Kittens and another made up of '80's Russian thrash metal! There's also loads of new releases and me talking about a near car accident on the way to the studio, as well as my new "hear me out". What a weird way to start the year.

Specimen – The Beauty of Poison

2025 was full of so many great releases that cramming all of my favorites into one 2-hour show was not the easiest thing, but I gave it a shot. Apologies to anyone who didn't make the cut in this one episode, but you made it in my black little heart. Promise. Enjoy!

Here it is, folks! The last show of the year. Our annual holiday show where we inject some creep into your Christmas and horror into your holidays. Enjoy! 

Within Temptation - Gothic Christmas

We started off this one with some selections from a new compilation - Goths for Palestine Vol. II - and then spent the rest of the show catching up with new releases. I also gave my thoughts on Black Phone 2 and announced a load of shows coming up, including the Columbia Goth Nite - Tribute to Benjamin Bowling I'll be DJ'ing next weekend. Enjoy! 

Sisters of Mercy - Body and Soul

This one's a slightly shorter show than usual, but we crammed a lot in. We caught up with a lot of new releases and infused it here and there with a dash of black metal. I also said a few words about the sudden passing of a Columbia Goth fixture - Benjamin Bowling (aka DJ Bat Nuklier). He will be missed.

Skeletal Family – Hands on the Clock

This one was a little bit of a Halloween Hangover. No themed sets, just catching up with a couple months worth of new releases. I also discussed some of the recent horror I've been checking out. I know we're all supposed to be moving on to those other holidays, but I am, as always, still in the Halloween mood.

Shadow Project - Under Your Wing

This is it, boils and ghouls - the show we count down to all year! If you're a long time listener, you know what the Retro Halloween Show is all about. We take a full day of Halloween in 1980-something and compress it down to 2 hours of radio, complete with music, commercials, morning talk shows, PSA's, you name it. This time around is a little different, as it was part of WUSC's Fall Fundraiser, which had a 1970's theme. So, it's more '70's influenced than '80's, but we dip our toes into the '80's (and maybe even a little beyond) too. Enjoy! 

Had some fun with the first half of the show. It was full of some of my favorite horror soundtrack deep cuts. Honestly, I could fill an entire show of those. Then in the second hour, we got down with some new releases.
