Artificial Radio Hour with Rev. Dr. Dr. Phill Part 20

Hey folks!

This week's podcast has shorter music selections this time, but with a few movie clips thrown in for a change.

 

The music is mostly short instrumental pieces from Black Sabbath, sometimes unaltered and sometimes manipulated to the point of being unrecognizable.

After a great tune by songwriter and sideshow pincushion St. Andrew the Impaled, there's the 28-second long "Embryo" from the 1971 Black Sabbath album Master Of Reality. Some of the sounds you right after that, under the 99% Invisible piece about Lucia Moholy are that same 28 seconds s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d out, flipped, and squished up to over 9 minutes. (I also added the 21-second drum intro to "Bela Lugosi's Dead" likewise stretched way, way out. Bauhaus joke. Ha ha.) I re-used that stretching gag for the music under the Adam Ruins Everything and Never Not Funny clips as well. Fun!

If you've never seen Jules Feiffer's fantastic black comedy Little Murders, I highly recommend it. I have some more clips from that to share in the future.

I heard some clips from the 1947 film Magic Town on the SubGenius Hour of Slack but I don't think they're the ones I used. I can't recall why I originally grabbed the audio from YouTube, but it did get put to use, that's the main thing. The poetry scene reminded me of Dr. Hal's ability to recite long swaths of poetry from memory so I included an example of that. "The Skeleton In Armor" is pretty metal, so actually I guess it does go with the Black Sabbath.

There are a few new subscribers, so some notes may be appropriate for those who might not have been following along:

• This podcast is emailed to you because I couldn't figure out a way to do a free rss feed that you could just open in iTunes or another podcast app.

• I upload the show in mp3 form at the Internet Archive because I'm pretty sure it won't get taken down from there for violating copyrights.

• There are a few ways you can listen: you can stream the show from a player on either the Internet Archive page, or the blog (revdrdrphill.blogspot.com). You can also download the show from the Internet Archive page in VBR mp3 form (variable bit rate, it plays like a standard mp3). The link to download the mp3 is on the right of the Internet Archive page.

• There are a few slightly different versions of these show notes I write. One version, with no images, goes on the Internet Archive page. One version, with lots of pictures, goes in the MailChimp email. A third version, with the pictures, an embedded player, and sometimes some YouTube video extras & supplementary material goes on the blog (as mentioned above, revdrdrphill.blogspot.com).

 If anybody has any questions feel free to leave a comment below, wherever you are reading this. (If you're reading the email, feel free to reply to it.)

Confused? You won't be after this week's episode of Soap!

Enjoy!
