Twin Terrors Macabre Manor of Mead Metal and Mayhem

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to another 50th anniversary arc for Led Zeppelin!  Physical Graffiti came out 50 years ago in 1975, so we're covering it this year!  Part 1 starts back in 1974, however, with the creation of Zep's vanity label Swan Song, along with some miscellaneous bits such as meeting Elvis and jamming with the Rolling Stones.

We know we had promised Blood on Satan's Claw in the notes from last week's episode, but don't worry!  That will be out next week, so that we can split up the Zep arc episodes like we typically do.

So pour yourself a pint and enjoy some Physical Graffiti!

Next week's episode is on Blood on Satan's Claw with what it has in common with HHGTTG.

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to the final episode of our Jimmy Page and the Occult arc!  We're finishing obviously, with Jimmy himself.  Between purchasing Crowley artefacts and houses and his dealings with other magic-loving rock stars, this is a packed episode!

So sit back and enjoy with your pint and enjoy!

Next week's episode is about the folk horror icon "Blood on Satan's Claw."

Welcome back to the Manor!  So we tried something new... a virtual pub crawl!  Since we're not in the same state, we shared a screen virtually and enjoyed pints while we also enjoyed the music and scenery of pubs and taverns and beer halls from Germany, England, Scotland, Ireland, and a Fantasy Realm!

We weren't sure how it would go, but we certainly had fun!  Maybe a little tipsy, too, so it's good that it was a virtual crawl and nobody had to drive.  We're going to try it again and hopefully it'll keep getting better!  But if nothing else, the craic and the conversation was fun and should be great listening!  We get into our beers and favorite foods of each country, and more!

As you'll hear in the intro, edits are few.  As well as what we mentioned there, we were also hit by the flu, and since there were going to be few edits anyway, these extra few non-edits won't be noticeable.  We hope you enjoy as much as we did!

So pour yourself a pint of your favorite beer from any of the countries we're "visiting" or maybe even one from each!  Enjoy!

Next week's episode will be the final part of our Jimmy Page and the Occult arc, where we actually discuss Jimmy!

Welcome back to the Manor!  Jody sent a meme to James about why hot wing restaurants are always sports themed and not nerd themed.  What would it take to make a nerd wing place work?  Probably more than we've thought about here, but we talked about it any way!  Feel free to use our ideas... for recognition. Snicker snicker.

Pour yourself a pint and cook yourself up a plate of wings and enjoy!

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to part 4 of our Jimmy Page and the Occult series!  This one wasn't initially planned, but once James started working on the notes for part 3 (see episode 375), he thought it would be fun to do an additional episode on the Crowley Family Brewery.  So here is a not-quite-so-occult episode in our occult series, on Alton Ales!

Pour yourself a pint (sadly not from Alton) and enjoy!

Welcome back to the Manor!  Getting our meat pie episodes to at least a trilogy now, we're talking about British Meat Pie Week!  The first full week of March, so this year March 3rd to March 9th, is a special week full of meat pie goodness.  We talk about the history of meat pies, the contest held in Britain, and more!

Although James did use several references, here is the biggest one, the official link:

Pour yourself a pint, make yourself a pie, and enjoy!

Next week's episode is the next episode on our Jimmy Page and the Occult series.

Welcome back to the Manor! And finally!!! Welcome back to the Jimmy Page and the Occult arc, with part 3, Aleister Crowley!   We get into the background of the Magus and Beast, enough to give the idea of what Jimmy was researching at least.  Sit back with your pint of choice and enjoy! 

Next week's episode is about British Meat Pie week.

Welcome back to the Manor!  An episode James had mentioned a handful of times in our long history has finally been made.  Jacks!  Jacks in folklore, literature, boxes and more -- including all the "Jack nicknames."

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to the second (of two) episode on the 40th anniversary of "This is Spinal Tap," the mocumentary that showcases the band that will eventually reach platinum in the year 2327.

Although the 40th was last year, we did release part 1 back in December and recorded both episodes in November... so meh to all the nay-sayers!  Don't make us bring out our cricket bats!  (Krikket robots attack!)

Next week's episode is about Jacks -- in folklore, boxes, and more.

Welcome back to the Manor and happy birthday to the professor himself, JRR Tolkien!  For his birthday, we're discussing Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, specifically his version, but also whatever pops into our heads about it.  So light your pipe and pour your pint and get ready for some Arthurian fun.

Next week's episode is the second of our Spinal Tap 40th anniversary arc.
