Sun, 10 Nov 2024 18:30:00 GMT

Shy of a full hour guest I chose to run some songs and music created by a variety of folks straddling the pop culture spectrum.

Sun, 01 Sep 2024 18:30:00 GMT

Writer and wholly underrated talent George O'Connor returned to the show to ostensibly discuss the upcoming VAMPIRE ON MARS #2 crowdfund, but he's got so much going on worth talking about we barely squeezed it in during the hour! Lots of fun, music, and all-around comics on another Pint O' Comics program!

Pint O' Comics Episode 286 w/ Scott "BabyDaddy" Hoffman

Sun, 23 Jul 2023 18:30:00 GMT

Scott Hoffman is new to comics in a creative way, but not to being creative. Known better for his music with his band the Scissor Sisters, he's brought a new comic book by way of the digital platform Comixology, to readers. That comic is NOSTALGIA (your pronunciation may vary) and is surrounds a musician of the near future dealing with some intense issues of self, as well as being a retired revolutionary. It's entertaining reading with the art of Danijel Zezelj and Lee Loughridge all available now. Hear our meandering discussion of the comic, as well as music and comic interests.

Pint O' Comics Episode 283 - Holiday Special

Sun, 02 Jul 2023 18:30:00 GMT

Pint O' Comics Episode 271 w/ Stephan Franck

Sun, 09 Apr 2023 18:30:00 GMT

Stephan Franck has a long list of credits to his name in animation work, but we spend the majority of the hour talking about PALOMINO, his graphic novel series published through his own imprint and being Kickstarted in a few short days. PALOMINO is a period set mystery that falls into neo-noir with a musical backdrop alongside Los Angeles and the surrounding area. A solid piece of storytelling, it succeeds in drawing the reader deep into the subject, leaving you wanting more. Find out why in this show!

Pint O' Comics Episode 266 w/ Gorman Bechard

Sun, 26 Feb 2023 18:30:00 GMT

In 1970, the rock festival circuit came to a near dead stop with the never-quite-happened Powder Ridge Rock Festival in Middlefield, Connecticut. Bands were booked, tickets sold in the multitudes, and then the powers-that-be shut it down. Hard. Regardless, concertgoers showed up and camped out on the skiing hill in the hot month of August, pushing the tiny community to the end of their wits. What was it all about? Who wanted it on, who wanted it off? Gorman Bechard, movie documentarian of such films as PIZZA: A LOVE STORY and COLOR ME OBSESSED is currently working on a full documentary of the Powder Ridge Rock Fest, which we discuss at length in this episode. Good music, good fun, all strange and weird with hippies and conservatives looking back at a turning point in music and concerts. Look for the ongoing crowd funding effort for the movie here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/powder-ridge-music-festival-documentary-phase-2?fbclid=IwAR1OYdS5ti9aeFWAFUVKKOmSduwPfYbGyerYgH27d2VhyJnMLE29JWtMHYs#/

Check it out and enjoy learning more about the great man called Zappa.

Pint O' Comics Episode 225 - They All Can't be Zingers

Sun, 15 May 2022 18:30:00 GMT

Stealing a quote from Johnny Ganache, this episode lost steam about 20 minutes in and whimpered out in the end. After a trying week and no guest scheduled, your host plays some "things to make you smile" and just ended up buggering the whole shebang. Enjoy if you can. More entertaining topics next week.

Sun, 03 Apr 2022 18:30:00 GMT

Pint O' Comics Episode 201 - Celebrate Carl Stalling

Sun, 14 Nov 2021 18:30:00 GMT

Another hour of music with Sir Jon as Pint O' Comics floods WESU airwaves with the creative insanity of Carl Stalling, a name that should be known to anyone that grew up watching Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies. Carl was the Music Director for Leon Schlesinger's studio, who did the animated shorts for Warner Bros. From the mid-thirties to the late fifties, Carl made music for almost every animated cartoon for WB, producing a body of work that transcends orchestral style. It is unlikely any of the Warner Bros. characters would have turned out the same without the notes, cues, and music that Carl Stalling put to the craziness we were entertained with. Enjoy this celebration of an incredibly talented man.

Pint O' Comics Episode 200 - Where's Neil When You Need Him?

Sun, 07 Nov 2021 18:30:00 GMT

After an over long absence, Pint O' Comics returns to the airwaves with Sir Jon playing the 2006 CD release, Where's Neil When You Need Him from Dancing Ferret Discs. This particular CD is from Sir Jon's own collection but had never been opened, so he does so on air for your amusement. Roughly ten or so of the 17 songs are played before show's end. Enjoy!

Pint O' Comics Episode 194 - Robert Mitchum Sings Calypso

Sun, 15 Aug 2021 18:30:00 GMT

For the last live Pint radio episode for the forseeable future (thank you COVID) Sir Jon spins the 1957 recording of Robert Mitchum singing calypso - Calypso is Like So...

Pint O' Comics Episode 182 - What Runs Underneath

Sun, 16 May 2021 18:30:00 GMT
