Brought forward from Easter, we're pondering the cult of the serial killer, and wondering why people on the extreme sexual margins of society get so much attention, sometimes to the point of near-canonisation. Al Needham will be dropping by on the phone to talk about Peter Sutcliffe (AKA The Yorkshire Ripper), I'm examining Ted Bundy, having been gobsmacked more than usual by Anne Rule's The Stranger Beside Me, and Kim is taking us on a tour round the head of Jeffrey Dahmer. Other guests, and psychos, to be confirmed...
I was going to put up some actual photos, but suddenly that made me feel a bit sick, so here instead, available from Shel-tone, are a couple of Michael H Price's Mass Murderer Trading Cards (can't find a decent link) that apparently caused such a stir among censors back in 1992. This one must have passed me by at the time. Actually, looking back through my annals, 92 was a seriously lost year for me.
And another thing. That announcement I was talking about.
*drum roll*
We're taking a break from doing live shows till the summer. Kim's got a new job and I'm writing a book, so no more late Sunday nights in the studio for a while. But please stick around: we've got lots more shows to podcast, and there will be brand new podcasts too. Check this site for details. Speaking of podcasts, Porn versus Erotica and Decline of the Gay Bar? are now available for download. Thanks for listening. :-)
