Its about God Damn Time!

Finally a new episode of Punk Horror Podcasts.  This time we have a tale about the evolution of the reality game show from Punk Horror Co-Founder Gabriel LLanas.

We won't talk about it to much because I'm sure that you just want to get to the podcast, but I bet you would like to know that Gabriel's first novel Oh, Ragnarok, just came out from Wild Child Publishing.  He would love for you to read it and send him hate mail.

Well on with the story.

Great stuff from the fiction ranks again.  This time we have a doozie of a story from Stephen M. Wilson, called Betty Rage.  He is poetry editor of Doorways Magazine amongst a bunch of other things.  And the best part it is set to music!  Be sure to check this one out!!

We know you have been waiting for the new episode of Author Read Fiction. I'm telling you right now that it was worth the wait. This month we have fiction from Cari Beltane. Cari is a working-class rabbit mama, experimental and horror fiction maker, performance artist, activist for justice – especially for anyone with four legs, and an exceptional vegan chef. She read an excerpt from her forthcoming bizarro novel Shrink.

Cari will also be coming out with a collection of bizarro poetry and fiction from Punk Horror Press, and we are always proud when she graces us with one of her works from "Booger Murphy".

Prepping you for the story is the creepy noise that the spinning hexagon on the planet Saturn is making. Don't believe me, look it up on Google.

Finally, PHP is proud to be working with Runaway Network. There are some other great shows on the network so be sure to check them out.

You are in for a treat!  This episode of Author Read Fiction features one of the great authors that will be in Punk Horror's first trade paperback, The Vault of Punk Horror, Ryan C. Thomas.  Ryan is a busy man; he has several short stories to his name and his first novel, The Summer I Died, behind him.  Ahead of him he has shorts in two new zombie collections from Permuted Press and Elements of the Apocalypse also from Permuted Press, as well as a new novel.  With all of the spare time he is also in the San Diego rockabilly band, The Buzzbombs.

 

Ryan has graced with his haunting story,"Passion Soup".  The tale of a driven young man who wants to win the local soup making contest so bad he is willing to sacrifice anything.  So sit back and enjoy the newest podcast from Punk Horror Press.

David Agranoff reads, Killing Billions.  You were still hopeful about life a week into the new year.  Let us bring you down.

Another tale from Punk Horror author David Agranoff.  This time he has one that is going to make you think twice about eating the chiken salad sandwich in your mom’s fridge.

Cody Goodfellow reads “Lydia’s Last Lyposuction�, a revolting short story you’re sure to adore!

LYDIA'S LAST LIPOSUCTION

How much is too much? When it comes to love, lies and liposuction, Lydia never says no... until it's too late. A buxom barfbag of full-figured farce lovingly guaranteed to make you lose your lunch. Listen to Cody’s entry in the 2005 World Horror Convention’s gross out contest.

Cody is one of the most respect names in the horror small press. His novels, Radiant Dawn and Ravenous Dusk, are a two-part epic of modern Lovecraftian horror. His stories and articles have appeared in Cemetery Dance,Third Alternative, Dark Wisdom, The Eldritch Dark, Static Magazine and Substance Digizine. Cody also appears in ‘A dark and deadly valley’ (WW 2 horror collection), Hardboiled Cthulhu, and the Australian giant monster anthology Daikaiiju. Most important to us his novella ‘Breaking the chain letter’ set to appear in the Vault of Punk Horror.

"It’s like H.P. Lovecraft and Tom Clancy stopped by Thomas Pynchon’s house, on their way to perform some eco-terrorism with Edward Abbey and the Monkey-Wrench Gang, before hooking up with Robert Anton Wilson and Philip K. Dick to do some ‘shrooms. The thing is, reading Cody Goodfellow reminds me of all these other writers and artists, whenever I put down the book. But when I’m reading it, I’m not thinking of anyone else. Because he doesn’t read like anyone else. Which is to say: he is a fucking original." – John Skipp NY Times Bestselling author and splatterpunk legend

You can pick up his books at Perilous Press or Shocklines.

Show Notes

The kick off story is Parking Loch by David Agranoff.  David is one of our own at Punk Horror and has just released a book of politically charged horror and science fiction entitled Screams From A Dying World.  Which is a benifit for Animal Acres a farmed animal shelter in Los Angeles.

His story is about a very interesting type of grid lock that may end up being the scourge of hit men around the nation.
