This week join Andrew, Steve, and Jonathan as they hangout, chat, and close out this season’s worth of episodes of Inside the Box: The TV History Podcast. They’ll probably also talk a little bit about holiday TV programming and make a few New Year’s resolutions as well.
This week join Jonathan in conversation with Dr. Kendall Phillips about his recent book, Kolchak, The Night Stalker, a part of Wayne State University Press’s Milestones series. Don’t worry, Steve Voorhees is here too to comment on our conversation that includes ideas including: “Where was horror at in the U.S. by the late 1960s / early 1970s?”, Kolchak’s trio of creatives behind the scenes, Kolchak as an influential gothic investigator, and would Kolchak show up these days on What We Do in the Shadows? Whether you’re a longtime Kolchak fan or brand-new to the character, we think there is something here for you during our conversation.
In this episode Andrew, Steve, and Jonathan discuss David Sarnoff’s introduction of television for RCA at the 1939 World’s Fair at Flushing Meadows NY. Tune in to listen to this story about hope, the future, and looking for the “World of Tomorrow” during a time between economic depression and the cusp of world war. You might just learn something and have a few laughs along the way. Be sure to check out some of the historical photographs and documents embedded in this episode’s post.
Happy Holidays from Inside the Box. For this last main feed episode of our limited-episode season, we bring you the gift of Steve Voorhees! Steve climbs back aboard the good ship ITB to discuss with Jonathan Universal Music’s latest efforts to recontextualize classic holiday recordings with newly produced animated music videos.
