   The Forgotten Man and Welcome Home, Johnny Bristol (Vietnam in the TV movie)

   Welcome back! We apologize for such a long delay. This episode was recorded LAST YEAR, and there were a number of sound issues, many of which I simply could not resolve. But here we are, talking The Forgotten Man (1971) and Welcome Home, Johnny Bristol (1972), which both deal with Vietnam in different, but sometimes eerily similar ways. We do hope you enjoy!

   Vampire and I, Desire (Small Screen Vampires!)

   Welcome back! Here is a special Halloween episode we recorded for the scariest of scary seasons. On this episode, we talk small screen vampires, and take a look at the classic 1979 chiller Vampire, starring the great Richard Lynch, as well as the glossy 1982 entry, I, Desire, which features that cutie pie werewolf David Naughton transforming into a vampire hunter! We do hope you enjoy!
