StarlingA mascot was born! With this episode  the Television Crossover Universe Podcast's obsession with William Hope Hodgson's Carnacki the Ghost-Finder was born! M.J. Starling had written a remarkable play featuring the occult detective, collected in Carnacki: The New Adventures. This was the point, I believe, where Rob and and I fell in love with the character. Or, at the very least, this is where a combination of craft and accident meant nearly every episode had a Carnacki connection. Mr. Starling was a wonderful guest, telling us all about the role of playwright, music composition, and some of the most unique writing concepts ever brought up on the show. 00:55:00The Raconteur RoundtablenoCarnacki,Carnacki the Ghost Finder,William Hope Hodgson,Ghost-Finder,M.J.

It's all something of a prequel to our most popular episode, #11, with Nicole Petit. All this, and just how much James hates Casablanca. (Originally presented on January 5th, 2016.) 00:53:00The Raconteur RoundtablenoSherlock Holmes,Golden Age,Hollywood,Turner Classic Movies,Nicole PetitJames Bojaciuk is put on the hot seat as he talks about his writing, his influences, and all about one of his favorite subjects: old Hollywood.https://www.blogtalkradio.com/raconteurroundtable/2017/03/13/tvcu-3--enter-the-punderdrome-with-chris-nigroWritinghttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/raconteurroundtable/2017/03/13/tvcu-3--enter-the-punderdrome-with-chris-nigro/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/raconteurroundtable/2017/03/13/tvcu-3--enter-the-punderdrome-with-chris-nigroMon, 13 Mar 2017 06:00:00 GMTTVCU #3 - Enter the Punderdrome with Chris NigroChris Nigro was the guest who never left, swiftly becoming our punniest co-host.
