No, unfortunately I am not referring to a remake nor a sequel to the 1983 Spanish science fiction thriller with the lovable elephant-like alien baby and it’s evil human-devouring mother (but one can dream…).?Ǭ† The pod people in question are your loyal and almost as lovable Doc Channel staff, who will soon be gracing the proverbial airwaves with some witty repartee, obscure doc lore, and interviews with top docmakers.?Ǭ† That’s right, friends and neighbors, we are finally launching our long-awaited podcast.?Ǭ† At this very moment I am locked out of our media room (thwarted by an 8-by-11 sheet of legal pad ,no less, scotch-taped to the door with the words “Recording in Progress! Do Not Enter!” scrawled across it semi-legibly with a black sharpie).?Ǭ† Soon you’ll be able to enjoy the sounds of our rants and raves, filmmaker interviews, doc news, and even some great music tracks to boot all on your very own i-Pod or laptop while you flirt with that cute bartender or barista at your local coffee shop.?Ǭ† So be prepared, our very first ‘cast is on it’s way, and let me tell you it is not to be missed.?Ǭ† And here’s a hint on this cast’s featured filmmakers: they’re big fans of everyone’s favorite mid-70’s man-eater, whose film ruined beach tourism for the entire year of it’s release.?Ǭ† If you think you know the film to which I’m referring, do some internet-sleuthing and email us here at the channel with the name of the documentary in production that focuses on the film.?Ǭ† If you’re the first to guess the answer, we’ll send you some great Doc Channel goodies.
