A Season In Hell #23: EEEK! A Mouse Trap!


DJ icecreamlopez invited down my old friend and creator of the Life-Size Mouse Trap: Mark Perez, and his delightful fiance Rose Harden Monday night. They're throwing a FUNdraiser for the Mouse Trap this Sunday night, 9-2am at Amnesia on Valencia st. in SF.

We talked all things Mouse Trap, including the history and the recent month long trip to Texas, where they set the behemoth up at the Makers Fair.

Head down to the show this Sunday, and be a patron of the arts. Also, check out their website here. You can also go here for more info about the FUNdraiser.

You can download the show here.

The first hour featured a 30 minute mix by Subgenius DJ Reverend X-ister. I was impressed. It was his first time on the radio, having only done podcasting before. Look out KROB, this guy is talented.

Speaking of KROB, he will be joining me on Monday night, February 18th, when the Great Ivan Stang, founder of the Church of the Subgenius will be making his triumphant return to the Pirate Cat Radio airwaves. Stang, along with Reverend Howland Owll, KROB and Puzzling Evidence were on my show in December and made it a very memorable night. Tune in on the 18th to see if we can top that one.

KROB will be joining me the following week, February the 25th as well, as we partake on a four hour journey of sound collage. We're calling this episode A Season in Hell: Guns or Butter? Well, which is it? Tune in and vote.

Speaking of voting, today is Super Tuesday, so get out and vote.

That is all.
