Rondo-award winner Dr. Gangrene returns to Monster Kid Radio this week, and he's bringing Vincent Price with him! According to Derek and Dr. Gangrene, 1953's House of Wax (dir. André De Toth) is one of Vincent Price's best films, and apparently Columbia Pictures thought so, too, when they produced The Mad Magician (dir. John Brahm) in 1954. After catching up with the good doctor, he and Derek discuss the cast, crew, and some of its similarities to House of Wax. Plus, listener feedback!

Frequent MKR guest and podcaster himself (he's a legend!) Scott Morris attended last October's Monster Bash, and while there, attended the Caroline Munro Q & A session. For this episode. Scott shared a recording of that session (and I can't help imagine he was grinning from the start because he's a James Bond fan and the first few questions were actually about Munro and her time as a Bond girl).

Can host Derek and guest Tracey Morris top a 50 foot woman? They're sure going to try when they look at the 1956 film It Conquered the World (dir. Roger Corman).

When Monster Kid Radio crashes a film screening, Derek brings his recorder, and Creature from the Black Lagoon (dir. Jack Arnold) has been shown twice since just before the launch of the MKR podcast. The best thing about these Monster Kid Radio Crashes is catching up with people who hadn't seen the movie before, like Ray Jelinek when the movie played the 99w Drive-In, or Tom and Kiri Daufel when it was shown at the Joy Cinema. Devon Devereaux makes a quick appearance at the drive-in showing while filmmaker/author/master storyteller Edward Martin III showed up at the Joy.

Dr. Gangrene (aka Larry Underwood) returns to Monster Kid Radio to talk about one of his favorite actors - Vincent Price.

When we think about the classic monster movie actors, we think about names like Karloff, Lugosi, Chaney, etc. In this episode of Monster Kid Radio, Greg Starrett (the co-author of Fit for a Frankenstein) is going to help us add the name Conrad Veidt to that list.

"Nobody wants to kiss a slug." It's nuggets of wisdom like that that you'll hear in this episode of Monster Kid Radio. Micah and Derek continue their discussion of the 1956 classic science fiction film Forbidden Planet on the podcast, share their thoughts on the difference between science fiction movies then and now, remakes, special effects . . . and whether or not either of them really need 60 gallons of "the good stuff."

Derek is joined by Micah Bear this week on Monster Kid Radio, and he's bringing Robby the Robot with him. Micah spent part of his childhood going to the movie theater to watch classic science fiction movies with his father, and Forbidden Planet (dir. Fred M. Wilcox) became a favorite. In this episode of MKR, Micah talks about how he came to see some of these movies, and with Derek, they start to talk about the non-robot cast of Forbidden Planet. Also, Derek reads emails from Monster Kid Radio listeners.

Monster Kid Radio is due for a check-up, so it's time to check in with our friendly neighborhood doctor, Dr. Gangrene! His prescription? How about a viewing of the Vincent Price classic House of Wax (André De Toth)? Dr. Gangrene (aka Larry Underwood) cites House of Wax as one of his favorites, and not only does he tell us why, but also why House of Wax is one of the most important films of Vincent Price's career. Along the way, he and Derek talk briefly about remakes, and what they look for in a 3D film.

Boris Karloff made quite the impression on writer/actor/musician Randy Bowser . . . so much so, Randy has written Karloff: A One-Person Play, and he's on Monster Kid Radio this week to tell us about it. In this episode, Randy talks with Derek about the process of writing the play, where he found his information and inspiration, and whether or not the Karloff estate is behind the project. Thank you to all the Monster Kid Radio listeners that have backed the Kickstarter campaign to finance this one-of-a-kind piece of stage magic so far!

Boris Karloff is not just one of the patron saints of Monster Kid Radio. He's not just a guy who played movie monsters. He was a working actor who constantly worked on his craft and gave every project his all, and Randy Bowser's upcoming one-person play Karloff will highlight and feature more than just the monster elements of this man's journey and career. This week on Monster Kid Radio, we meet playwright/actor/musician Randy Bowser, learn about his Monster Kid background, and how Boris Karloff influenced his creative path.

You'll believe a turtle can fly . . . and shoot fireballs. Kyle Yount's visit to Monster Kid Radio (or should we say Kaiju Kid Radio?) continues as he and Derek talk about the 1990s trilogy of Gamera films (dir. Shusuke Kaneko). Kyle is the mastermind behind the Kaijucast, and not only is he a fan of all things Godzilla (which he plans on documenting in his upcoming documentary Hail to the King: 60 Years of Destruction), but he's also a fan of that OTHER giant Japanese monster whose name also starts with the letter G.

Monster Kid Radio isn't the only monster-themed podcast in the Pacific Northwest. Kyle Yount has been talking about "Godzilla and all of his rubber-suited foes" on the Kaijucast since 2009. Since then, he's been able to do some amazing things, like introducing King Kong vs. Godzilla (dir. IshirÅ Honda) at the Hollywood Theatre in 2012 for that film's 50-year anniversary. (Derek was at that screening, and it began his fandom of all things kaiju proper - thanks Kyle!) Now, Kyle has an opportunity to do something even bigger. Hail to the King: 60 Years of Destruction is a documentary produced by Kyle . . . and the supporters of his Kickstater program.

Beverly Washburn's Hollywood history brought her into contact with many legends, and Monster Bash brought her into contact with Monster Kid Radio! Comic Book Central's Joe Stuber set up the interview, and together Joe and Derek ask Beverly about her experience with Mole Men, Captain Kirk, and a really messed up family led by Lon Chaney, Jr. Beverly was a great guest, and we thank her for spending some time with us at Monster Bash. After the interview, Derek opens up the floor for a discussion about a particular piece of news that has the potential to break the internet . . . or at least, a few message boards.

Here at Monster Kid Radio, we ask Mystery Science Theater 3000 creator Joel Hodgson the hard questions about his current day job, his history with MST3k, and what he says about critics that might consider riffing less-than-respectful. Comic Book Central's Joe Stuber set up the interview, and the two of us sat down with the very gracious Joel for this episode of MKR.

Bill Riley, Joe Ziegler, and Jason Crutchley were at Monster Bash this June, but attendees probably know them better as Bud Abbott, Lou Costello, and Scoop Fields - The Ultimate Abbout & Costello Tribute Show! When they weren't performing nightly at the convention, they could be found interacting with the Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein display at the show, or even interacting with people in the hallways! These guys were amazing, and were generous enough with their time to sit down for an interview with Comic Book Central's Joe Stuber in which they talk about their history, how they came together, and their favorite eras and routines of The Boys. Additionally, Derek talks briefly about the soon-to-be-released Universal Classic Monsters: Complete 30-Film Collection DVD set (and another Universal box set that might also be worth your time).

The Monster Kid Radio/Comic Book Central Crossover begins HERE! At Monster Bash, Derek finally met Comic Book Central's Joe Stuber in person, but they didn't have a lot of time to just catch up. Instead, they ran around the convention, gathering interviews for this EPIC MKR/CBC Monster Bash Crash! To kick things off, Joe and Derek ease into something that's now familiar to them by talking about the next Abbott and Costello monster meet up film in their ongoing series of A&C monster movies - 1953's Abbott and Costello Meet Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (dir. Charles Lamont). (Next time, Derek and Joe talk briefly about Monster Bash before an interview with the talented men behind The Ultimate Abbott & Costello Tribute Show!)

Monster Bash wasn't just celebrities and classic monster movie stars - it was also where attendees could meet film historians and scholars. Derek had an opportunity to sit down with Gregory William Mank (The Very Witching Time of Night: Dark Alleys of Classic Horror Cinema, etc.) and Frank J. Dello Stritto (Vampire Over London: Bela Lugosi in Britain), and in this episode of Monster Kid Radio, he'll share with you the conversations he had with these two authors.

Son of Ghostman was screened at Monster Bash, and ever since Larry "Dr. Gangrene" Underwood put the movie on the 2013 Monster Kid Radio Holiday Gift Guide, Derek has been eager to watch it. Not only did he watch it (and enjoy it!), he had a chance to speak with the film's director, Kurt Larson. And speaking of the 2013 Gift Guide, Derek also caught up with Edward Douglas of Midnight Syndicate. Midnight Syndicate's latest album release Monsters of Legend has been in heavy rotation in Derek's iPod, and listeners will get to hear some of this highly-recommended music on this episode of Monster Kid Radio.

Want more coverage from Monster Bash? You got it! Mr. Lobo opens the show, and talks with Derek about how he got started as a horror host, as well as his involvement in the soon-to-be-released Plan 9 (dir. John Johnson). Also, when Derek isn't talking about the overall Monster Bash experience with Scott and Tracey Morris, he's sitting down to talk with filmmaker Christopher R. Mihm about his latest release (The Late Night Double Feature) and his upcoming film (Danny Johnson Saves the World) before playing a round of the Classic Five.

Derek has finally made it to Monster Bash! Was it everything he dreamed it would be? (If you follow him on Facebook, you already know the answer to that!) Frequent Monster Kid Radio guests Scott Morris and Tracey Morris were also at the Bash, so the three of them talk about their first day at the convention. (They also play the Classic Five!) Additionally, Derek chats with Arch Hall, Jr. about his work in films like Eegah, Wild Guitar, and The Sadist, as well as his upcoming film Lamb Feed (dir. Michael S. Rodriguez). (Which of these films does Arch Hall, Jr., consider "feel good movies?")

1951's Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man (dir. Charles Lamont) ends with a boxing match, and Joe Stuber is there to cover the in-ring action on Monster Kid Radio. This is the third Abbott and Costello Meet... film covered on MKR so far, and Derek views this one almost as highly as the film in which the boys meet Frankenstein. Joe and Derek further discuss the tropes, the cleverness, and the genius of Bud and Lou. Plus, there's Listener Feedback, the upcoming Monster Kid Radio Crash, and, of course, Monster Bash.
