  • 49.) The Brian Frankish Interview

    49.) The Brian Frankish Interview

    (Recorded on 29 September 2022.)

    There are the people in front of the camera, the people who become celebrities for being behind the camera, and there are people like Brian Frankish, who make movies happen, and might not be widely known to the world at large. Regardless, his connection to the work on Max Headroom is legendary, and we get to spend an hour with him, trading war stories on the digital front porch, as we get to know what is most important to Brain Frankish.

    Heather is taking lots of notes.

    Austin wishes he’d asked more about The Last Starfighter.

    We encourage you to help with our Patreon Fundraiser, where we are working with Michael Cassutt to create an audio-drama version of his lost vintage Max Headroom script, “Families.” So if you help support Austin Rich so he doesn’t have to punch a clock, then we can get more of this kind of material to you, quickly.

    In our next episode, will will either feature another one of our “Maxis,” or a discussion regarding one last piece of Max-related media, before we dive into our “Season 2” Series. Stay tuned for more information!

    48.) Dancing On The Moon! (A Big Time Television Celebration)

    (recorded 10 May 2024)

    In honor of that Moon Landing that we’re all so ape about, here’s a “Big Time Television” broadcast on a certain subject, we all know and love.

    Heather would have picked something local.

    Austin is stuck in the 80’s, on the moon.

We’ve been sitting on this conversation for a while, and Brian was a delight to talk to. We’re very excited to let you hear what he has to saw about a life in Hollywood.

    47.) Solidarity / “Fourth of July” Special 

    (recorded 9 May 2024; 2 July 2024)

    We’re not really a fan of the Fourth of July. We suspect Max might have telegraphed a bit of our politics to our listeners, in that respect. And with recent rulings… it’s hard to think this holiday has the best intentions for us. So instead, we’re taking the week off, so we can lend our support to important causes.

    See ya next time.

    Heather is probably throwing a brick somewhere.

    Austin really loves that X song.
