Hey all.

Between seasons here but still producing an update from time to time. This episode is my take on the Nicolas Cage film Dream Scenario.

As with most updates, there is a YouTube video with images that have nothing to do with the narration of this episode. This time you can see the initial steps in upholstering a chair that I was restoring about five years ago.

As always, you can read the transcript on the you're listening to radio revel blog. And, if you've a hankering, you can support me on Patreon.

Won't be long before I let you all know where Season Four, which ought to start sometime in February, is heading. Got some ideas, even got some planning done, but not quite ready to let the cat out of the bag just yet....

Cheers,

Back with another opinion!

This time I talk about the series The Fall of the House of Usher.

It's a good watch, though I spend most of the episode talking about the shortcomings.

The video is one I began five years ago but never got around to producing. This is the first part of me cleaning and repairing the base of a chair, number 3 in a series of 4. A future video will show the finishing up of the chair.

You can read the transcript on the blog!

Wow, Thanksgiving just got done with and Santa Clause is in every ad spot on the TV! Kind of ran out of time.

There's more stories to this season, actually the entire fourth decade, but I won't get to them until Season Four, and maybe even in one of the new formats I'm planning of trying out.

I'll still drop an episode now and then, won't stop looking at movies and series that I'll probably have an opinion to share about.

Hope your upcoming holiday activity is pleasant and peaceful.

Cheers,

revel.

Hey all.

Last week's episode kind of got put off because of more immediate events in my household. This episode will give you a pretty good idea what happened.

Hope to have you back next week!

Have you ever just been totally wrong about a person? Did you let first impressions blind you to the real character of someone new in your life?

Not all sweet grandma types are really sweet grandma types. I met one of those sweet grandma types who turned out to be the type of person I wouldn't have chosen to have in my life: the Señora Antonia.

Listen in to this week's episode to find out who she was and what my experience with her turned out to be.

Hey all.

Here's a story for you, something I wrote at some moment between 1985 and 1988. Not autobiographical at all, just a bit of very short fiction with some comments about rewriting the past in your life.

The transcript, as always, can be had at the you're listening to radio revel blog, and you can support me on Patreon.

Thanks for listening!

Cheers,

Welcome back to the show!

Here's an intermediary episode, I talk about a series I've just finished watching, Mr Davis. I recommend it, but only if you're ready for a rollercoaster of a ride through a number of scenarios that don't get wound up until the end, though they do get wound up, a point in its favor.

You can see a video of me laying sidewalk slate tiles over on the you're listening to radio revel YouTube channel while listening if you'd like! And the transcript is available for your reading pleasure on the you're listening to radio revel blog.

Plus, you can support me on Patreon. If you want to....

Hey all. Shorter episode this time around. While there are so many stories from my time in New York City, I think they are mostly anecdotes that probably wouldn't be all that interesting if you've never been to New York City. So, I figure this is a cheat episode, but that's okay, the next one is probably more exciting to listen to.

Remember that the transcript is available on the you're listening to radio revel blog. And you can always support me on Patreon.

Cheers!

Hey there all.

You may have heard me tell this story before. You may not have. You can see a video version of the same story that I worked up for a language-learning platform I worked on a couple of years ago on the you're listening to radio revel YouTube channel.

And, you can always support me on Patreon!
