Rippercast- The Jack the Ripper Podcast

[Ally]

Paul Begg made an interesting point on the podcast and I think I am going to make a thread about it. I'd post it here but I don't want to swamp your board with tangentials.

[aspallek]

A pleasure, as always.

[Mike Covell]

I too was drinking during the show, but now use a straw after I accidently dropped my head mic in a glass of water a few weeks back!!

It was a good show Andrew and nice to have you back.

What was all that slurping and smacking?

Zombie Apocalypse?!!

--J.D.

I haven't listened to it yet but that might have been me! I was extremely thirsty after using my voice all morning and I was sipping on a diet soda during the program. If I make another appearance I will remember to swing the boom microphone on my headset out of the way before taking a sip!

Advance announcements of guests/topics

Hi all,

Doctor X,

For now, I'm going to stick with what I did last week, which is make the guest/topic announcement on the Thursday before the podcast and that way it will give those who wish to submit a question or two a few days in which to do this.
Doctor X, the question you posed to Mr. Ryder was ". . . if you could be a tree, what type of tree would you be?" which to me means you had plenty of time to think of something else in a more serious vein.

I do not intend to make public the complete guest/topic list we have. But, I will say that we do have guests booked for the show for every Sunday between now and mid-June and future planned topics include the Eddowes victim show, Whitechapel Society/ Cloak & Dagger Club, and a show (which we can't wait to record ) on the Thames Torso murders. Plus many many more.

Watch this space.

[Mike Covell]

I have emailed the guys and we will get some topics or guests posted up on here.

[Doctor X]

Understood. These things cannot be set in stone. However, say if your next "victim" topic is Annie Chapman, listeners can send in a bunch of "issues" they would like discussed, and "youse guys" can attend to the most popular/interesting/contentious--such as "would someone miss her body standing on the stoop?"

--J.D.

[Mike Covell]

Hi JD,

I will speak to Jonathon and ask him to post a list or subject which we will be discussing in the future show/s.

We do have a rough list but as you can imagine these slip or other guests might wish to join the discussion.

[Doctor X]

What was all that slurping and smacking?

Zombie Apocalypse?!!

--J.D.

P.S. Maybe if there is a list of a few guests and topics ahead of time, us peasants can think of more specific questions?

[Mike Covell]

What a great show, with a fantastic line up!!

My thanks go to Stephen for his time, and plugging my Blogg
Paul Begg for coming on board, a gentleman with so much knowledge its crazy!!
Andrew Spallek for coming along too with some great questions.

And of course the usual suspects, Jonathon, Howard and Robert, without which the show would not be were it is today.

Last nights show ran slightly over but it could have gone well into the late hours, there was so much to discuss!!

Remember guys, if anyone has any questions or queries contact Jonathon and he will get them answered.

At the start of the show it was like a Spring Evening in the UK, loads of sun and a decent temp, by the end of the show, there was a blizzard, and the Street was white over!!!

I think it was How who came up with that one, about 30 seconds before we started recording. I liked it on a lot of levels, not least of which was the one inferring I was a right pain.

I've got a question for Stephen being forwarded to me from someone signing themselves 'FJL Kitty'. No idea who that is...

PHILIP

[Doctor X]

. . . if you could be a tree, what type of tree would you be?

--J.D.

[Mike Covell]

Hi Jake L

Philip was such a great guest, funny, informative and such a good public speaker.

Believe it or not the show titles are usually debated right before the programme records, that way even the guest has a say on what it should be called, alouth Jonathon usually comes up with the better titles.

If you have any questions you want answering on the show, by the group or guests just PM, myself, Jmenges of Howard Brown, and we will ensure it gets answered.
