WHAT’S IN THE PIPELINE:
Next week, we’re hoping on bringing in Lee Demarbre (Enter the Drag Dragon, Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter) to talk to Pod 366. (If not next week, then we’ll get Mr. Demabre on soon thereafter). And Rocktober comes early on 366 Weird Movies next week as we feature three musical movies: Pete Trbovich curates another installment of “Ten Weird Things,” spotlighting the Monkee’s anarchic Head; Shane Wilson takes out another one that Came from the Reader-Suggested Queue with a review of Crass’ punk oddity Christ – The Movie (1990); and Gregory J. Smalley also goes punk as he helps himself to OFF!’s Free LSD (see above). Onward and weirdward!
