          Tonight’s guest is artist Tom Zotos, who tells us about his amazing career with companies like Hard Rock Cafe, Warner Brothers, Disney, and Lucasfilm. From his website:

          He led a quiet revolution creating “Pop Imagery” from cartoons, comics, and movies to the world of fine art. In the mid eighties he convinced the Walt Disney Company that there was a market for upscale art images and proved it when it became the genesis of a “Pop Art Phenomenon”.  A veteran in the world of art publishing, Zotos art directed and published some of the most revealing and thought provoking images of the last 25 years.

            • Tonight’s guest is Rob Smales, one of the New England Horror Writers. He not only gave Zombrarian a chance say the phrase, “utterly charming Christmas ghost story,” but also provided a lovely bio that I’ll just leave here for you:

              Rob Smales, though 42, is a new writer who just enjoys telling stories. His newer short fiction can be found in Wicked Seasons: the Journal of New England Horror Writers, Dark Bits, Death by Drive-In, and the Demonic Visions series. When not spending time with his young son or writing short, somewhat random fiction, he spends his spare time working on a series of original ghost story anthologies, the first of which is titled The Dead of Winter.

              Dead of Winter will be available soon. Watch the SFSN website, Twitter, or Facebook for updates!

                  Tonight’s guest is so interesting that we didn’t even bother with a news segment! This week, catch a whole hour with the lovely and funny George O’Connor. While he does deliver the sad news that 664: The Neighbor of the Beast is probably not getting a new season soon, he did give us some updates on his current and future projects.
