Twin Terrors Macabre Manor of Mead Metal and Mayhem

Welcome back to the Manor!  We're starting our third Malort episode here, with Malort cocktails!  However, to keep the boys (especially James) from getting too drunk, too quickly, we've added in our favorite band biographies that we've read, as well as some Chicago trivia.  This is part 1 of 3, to keep the episode from getting too bogged down!

Our Malort cocktails:  Malort and Coke, Illinois Nazi, and the Mal-tini

Bands we cover with biographies:  The Runaways, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Keith Richards

Chicago trivia:  sports and HH Holmes

Next week's episode is part two of our three part arc on Monty Python's Flying Circus series 4.

What do DLR, randy Middle Ages monks, and sex workers all have in common?  They're stars of this episode!  We share our favorite David Lee Roth quotes from various Van Halen books, along with historical things on where the term red light districts come from and how much monks drank back n the day.  All that and more!

Next week's episode is about (stay tuned - we've recorded a lot lately and have to see what's next!).

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to more Python!  This is our first of three episodes for series 4 and we're starting with their childhoods!  "What?" we hear you shout.  "Why are you doing childhoods for their last television series?!"  Because we're working backwards in time for the background stuff!  Go back and listen to the other series' episodes for "formation," pre-Python," and "university" eras. But for now, enjoy the horrors of their childhoods that gave them their wonderful senses of humor!

Next week's episode is James' favorite quotes from people he likes (okay, mostly David Lee Roth).

Welcome back to the Manor!  And yes, you read that correctly, we're talking about rock and metal in Middle Earth!  Okay, not Tolkien's Middle Earth, but the musical venues/night clubs that were extant in the late '60s and early '70s, with one in London, England and one in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.   Pour yourself a pint and enjoy learning about the hippies/blues people/rockers/mods/proto-metal bands that came to these venues, as well as the history of the venues themselves!

Next week's episode is our annual Top (insert number here -- this year it's 5) list.

Welcome to more Yuletide fun at the Manor!  Since last week we went into American Santa Claus, this week we thought we'd tackle (not literally -- we're not The Kinks playing at a Cheap Trick) England's Father Christmas!  Light your pipe and pour a pint and let's get at this wintery excitement!

Next week's episode is our annual last-of-year-episode featuring Iron Maiden, this time concluding our trilogy on The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Welcome back to the Manor!  This week, we get into the historical creation of American Santa Claus and how America turned away from its Puritanical antipathy towards Christmas, allowing it to blossom into the winter holiday it's become in the United States.  Pour yourself a wassail bowl of mead or a Smoking Druid or some eggnog and enjoy!

Next week's episode is about Father Christmas.
