Episode 132 - Canadian Creeps and Cryptids with Haunted History BC

Canada is well known for hokey, poutine and cold weather. Eh? Yes, I also know Canada for Corner Gas and some of the best punk rock in the world (Anti-Queens, duh!). What about the ghosts and cryptids of our friendly neighbors to the north? Not content with another episode about Waverly or Whaley House, in this one, I turn to Gina and Victoria of Haunted History BC, those Canadian Mavens of Morbid Mayhem, for answers. We’ll talk about the sisters’ history in the paranormal, how they conduct investigations, their mascot, Onyx The Crow and more. The “more” being several stories of Canadian haunted places and cryptids!!! Good stuff, eh? Last “eh?” joke, I promise. Those Pennsylvanian Purveyors of PUNK, Advocaat, generously grace us with the song “Ghost” in this one, too. BOOOO, eh!!! Sorrrry about that. Cemetery and Onyx the Crow photo by Haunted History BC.

Episode 125 - Pleasant Gehman III - THE Rock N Roll Witch Interview

Pleasant Gehman makes a triumphant return to the Bobcast in this, the final installment of a three part interview series. This time, we’re talking paranormal - ghosts, witchcraft, psychic abilities, UFOs and more! Pleasant has the best stories and as you’ll find out, also the spookiest and most-appropriate-for-Halloween stories! You’ll also hear all about the Ramones Ducks in this one. A group of critters that live at Hollywood Forever Cemetery and heed the quacking call of “Blitzkreig Bop” at mealtime every day. No kidding. This episode must be heard to be believed! Music of the episode by Sceamin Sirens with the song “Rare And Daring”. Brought to you by Wicked Cat Clothing and Good Life Digestive Health. Here are some links!

Episode 119 - The Mike Damante PUNK Interview

Mike Damante won me over a while ago with his “Punk Rock and UFOs” series of books, a mind-blowing series on paranormal weirdness and UFO related wildness. Mike’s latest book, “Hey Suburbia” also won me over - but in a different way. “Hey Suburbia” talks about punk rock, pop-punk and emo of the 1990’s and early 2000’s, mostly. There’s nostalgia, to be sure. But there’s also quite a bit about the course and trajectory of punk rock from those golden days up to the present day. Let me tell you, I listened to a bunch of Jimmy Eat World after I read the book, I cannot tell a lie. But I also looked at the future of punk rock in a different light after reading the book. With more hope, I should say. Well! Mike joins the Bobcast to talk all things PUNK in this episode, from how it all started for him, to answering that age old question - were big punk bands of the 90’s (that were successful) sell-outs? Listen and find out! Also, Michael Crusty stops by with a brand new edition of Crusty’s Corner to talk with Nick from Canadian Rock Wrestling and play a PUNK song by Debt Cemetery. Lastly, War On Women appear in the episode with the song “White Lies”, which was hand picked by Mr. Damante just for this episode! Let’s get PUNK with Mike Damante and freinds!

Episode 114 - Pleasant Gehman Interview Part II - Writing and Dancing

Pleasant Gehman returns to The Bobcast with a brand new episode and more stories, more magical mayhem that is the life of the incredible person, the Princess Of Hollywood, Pleasant Gehman! This time around we’re talking about Pleasant’s writing and dancing careers. Pleasant’s been doing both most of her whole life, to great effect. Though she has written mostly non-fiction stories of her life through the years, she’s the first person I’ve heard of that a publisher told “we can’t run this as fiction, it’s too crazy!!!”. That’s the life of Pleasant Gehman in a nutshell. Music of the episode by Screamin’ Sirens and those songs are “I Heard About You” and “Nine Times To Live” off of 1987’s “Voodoo”. Oh! The song “Voodoo” is also soothingly serenading you in the intro and outro background of the episode. Here are some links!

Episode 110 - Pleasant Gehman Interview Part One - Early Days, L.A. Punk and Music

Pleasant Gehman has quite the history of magical mayhem. From her days growing up on the East Coast, to her shennangans as a founder of the Los Angeles punk rock scene, Pleasant has some stories to tell. We’ll also hear from Pleasant about her (continuing!!) days of making music, notably in this interview her time in Screamin’ Sirens - the most fun band rock n roll and the earth has ever seen or heard. Two Screamin’ Sirens songs are in this one - “Love Slave” and “Maniac”. Brought to you by Plan 9 Alehouse and Good Life Digestive Health. Here are some links!

Episode 103 - Paranormal Ponderings Part II with Maria Wessenauer

The Paranormal Ponderings series continues with Part II, this time it’s all about haunted places and horrifying history! More creepy history than horrifying, I suppose? As with all of the “Paranormal Ponderings” episodes, I brought in an expert to discuss the subject of the episode. Haunted Places? Creepy History? Maria Wessenauer of Hollywood Exhumed has the facts, the details and the experiences that fill in all the blanks with this one! Maria has such a wealth of knowledge about the morbid history of the Los Angeles area, I believe her knowledge could fill an encyclopedia - a creepy compendium, if you will. Plus she’s had several experiences of strange and possibly paranormal phenomena herself! Music of the episode provided by Liverpool, England’s finest fiends, Zombina And The Skeletones. Plus! Ivy Boyd drops by with another edition of her “Mysterious Musings” series for the Bobcast, with some tales of terror from the Rosenheim Mansion in Los Angeles. Turn on the lights and turn up the volume, it’s time to get paranormal. Here are some links!

Episode 98 - Paranormal Ponderings Part One with Amanda Paulson

Welcome to a brand new series of episodes on the Bobcast, this time around we’re talking about all things paranormal and the occult in the “Paranormal Ponderings” series! Now, rather than talking all about the subjects at hand myself, I’ve gathered some of the finest people involved in the paranormal and occult world today to discuss these otherworldly matters. This first episode is all about paranormal investigating and features an interview with the force behind “Pretty F’n Spooky”, Amanda Paulson. Amanda is a paranormal investigator with no equal in my mind. Join us as we talk about her favorite equipment to take on an investigation, what criteria she uses to choose a location to investigate and she’ll even tell you about one of her first paranormal encounters! Good stuff. Also featured in this one is another installment of “Mysterious Musings With Ivy Boyd”, where Ivy tells of a couple of recent investigations she was a part of. Music! A cover of the “Ghostbusters” theme song by No Small Children and a brand new song by metal’s finest minstrels, Tetrarch. Check out these links and some other stuff!!

Episode 96 - The Grant Lawrence Interview (The Smugglers, Lookout! Zoomout!)

Grant Lawrence is a venn diagram gone horribly, horribly wrong. Where do you start with this guy? Grant is the singer of Canadian Crazies The Smugglers. He’s a radio and podcast personality for the Canadian Broadcast Corp. Books? Grant has written them and even has a children’s book on the way in late 2021. What else? Oh yeah! Grant and The Smugglers were on the Lookout! Records roster during the “Golden Years” of both Lookout! and pop-punk in general. So, Grant decided to reunite some of his labelmates for a series of Lookout! Records based livestreams that feature music, conversation and fun! What a great thing, these Lookout! Zoomout! streams are for a covid weary world. Interested in hearing more? Good, because this episode is a conversation with Grant where we talk about all of this and more! Three songs by The Smugglers are also featured in this episode - “Death At Disneyland”, “Rosie” and “Buddy Holly Convention”. Tune in and get awesome with Grant Lawrence! Here are some links!

Episode 94 - The Skoops Episode

Skoops is a very interesting person. He is an avid skateboarder, surfer and musician. Skoops is my friend. Skoops is also a black man. I feel like it is so very important to get the perspective of people outside of our own perspectives, in order to grow, learn and be a better person. So let’s talk to Skoops! We talk about growing up skating, surfing and playing music, plus much more. The songs of the episode are by bands that Skoops has been involved in through the years, the bands Bertos and Floor Notes.
