Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to the third and final episode of the origins of Cheap Trick!  Robin just joined the band... now are they going to get a record deal?  The suspense is killing me!  Except that this was 50 years ago, so of course they did.  Hear how they got there!  And if you do, and love Cheap Trick, why not either buy an album of theirs or one of the reference books we used (listen to part one).  We get nothing from it, but they sure do!  Pour yourself a pint and enjoy!

Welcome back to the Manor!  We're fitting in a short episode this week, as James wanted to quickly discuss National Yorkshire Pudding Day, which occurs the first Sunday of February in the UK.  We talk about recipes and how it went well with a mostly traditional Sunday Roast!  But don't feel like you have to wait a year for the next one!  We also talk about when the National Yorkshire Pudding Day is in the USA.  Listen in and find out about that and how to make these wonderful puffs!

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to another Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy episode!  This year is the 42nd anniversary of the fourth book in the HHGTTG trilogy, so we're talking just a bit about it (because we're partially covered it in previous HHGTTG episodes) and also doing some fancy number magic with Hilbert Beeblebrox's paradox of Procol Harum's Grand Hotel!  Listen in if you want to see what that mouthful is about!

Welcome back to the Manor!  We've mentioned Cheap Trick many times over the course of the podcast and now we're finally getting into them!  This is the first of three episodes exploring the beginnings of Cheap Trick, starting with the bands they were in before they became Cheap Trick (and before they were even Sick Man of Europe).

Welcome back to the Manor!  Join us in our time travel machine as we go back in time to the infamous Triple Crown Murder, a real life murder from 1935.  With a twist at the end! Next week's episode is about (stay tuned.... we have a few we're editing: Cheap Trick, HHGTTG, Masters of the Universe, and more).

Welcome back to the Manor! Although we took it a bit easy in November, a couple of those episodes were in-depth.  But along with the berserker spooky season schedule of October and some decently in-depth episodes in December, and then the more-or-less full Tolkien and Led Zeppelin episodes earlier this month, as well as a couple of bouts of Indonesian Junk... we needed a bit of an easy episode. With drinking!  Specifically, D&D&Drinking.  James made a game that takes D&D and adds alcohol and got Jody to playtest it one night.  So enjoy a fairly un-edited (except to remove those long spots where we had to go get another drink or take a bio-break) super long episode where you get to hear us fight skeletons and dragons and more, as we progressively get sillier and tipsier.   Enjoy!  We'll be back next week with something more typical.   Next week's episode is about... The Triple Crown Murder.

Welcome back to the Manor!  We interrupt what was going to be the next episode, but...  Ace Frehley, founding member of KISS, passed away last year.  Jody (especially) and James wanted to pay homage to the Spaceman and here it is.  Pour a pint or a shot of cold gin and commiserate along with us. Next week's episode is a drunken episode of D&D.  What's that, you ask?  Tune in and find out!

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to another of our Led Zeppelin album arcs!  Although in this case, it's an arc of one episode, as The Song Remains the Same's material has mostly been covered in other arcs!  But there is still plenty to talk about, so join us in time for Jimmy Page's birthday today and enjoy! Next week's episode is a drunken episode of D&D.  What's that, you ask?  Tune in and find out!

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to a new year!  We're starting out this year with an episode to celebrate JRR Tolkien's birthday, which is tomorrow, January 3rd.  We've mentioned doing this episode several times, so here it is... The Nature of Middle-Earth!  Edited by Carl F. Hostetter, it's based off Tolkien's writings (and notes from Christopher Tolkien) on how he developed the backstory of Middle Earth.  It's a treasure trove of information!  And we're going to talk about our favorite bits.   Also... elven age math! Next week's episode is about the 50th anniversary of Led Zeppelin's The Song Remains the Same.

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to the last episode of the year!  Which as usual, is focused on Iron Maiden!  If you harken back to the origins of the podcast, you'd know this tradition started due to an episode coming out on the day they formed.  Go back and listen! This time, we're (well, mostly Jody) talking about their B-sides from the 1980s!  If you don't know what a B-side is or what the '80s were, listen on and find out!  And of course, if you love Maiden, you'll love this episode regardless. Next week's episode is Tolkien influenced for the Professor's birthday.

Welcome back to the Manor! It is time for our annual Ghost Stories for Christmas episode!  This year, we're focusing a fair bit on M.R. James and our favorites of his, but we do talk about other authors and even have a "tournament of authors."  Something which we also subject our guest to!  We want to welcome John M Knight to the show, an excellent author who has written stories in the Jamesian style with modern twists. So join us, as James and Jody discuss their usual things and then as James interviews John.  A plethora of Yuletide spooky Js, with the three of us along with Montague James!   Next week's episode is on the background of a Charlie Brown Christmas Get in touch with us at Podbean: https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-4pksr-a17e1a Or on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/twinterrorsmacabremanormeadmetalmayhe/ Or on twitter: @Terrors_Manor On Instagram: @macabremanormeadmetalmayhem You can also find our podcast on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, and I Heart Radio; pretty much wherever fine (and our) podcasts are aired.

Welcome back to the Manor!  And welcome to our annual Thanksgiving episode!  Rather than have it come out a day late, after listening to our take on that as we pared the episode down a bit, we thought it would be better to release a day early, so here it is!  On Thursday!  Wow!
