APRIL 2024: A PRELUDE TO FREE COMIC BOOK DAY AND OTHER ASSORTED WONDEROUS CON TALES

Oh geez, is it that time of year again? Here comes that mounting anticipation for what this year’s 48 assorted titles has in store for us (and they’re all free!). And yes, you do have to go to the store to get them, but on the bright side, you don’t have to whip out your […]

WHAT KIND OF GAME SHALL WE PLAY…SCRABBLE (?)…CLUE (?)…RISK(?) OH, I KNOW, HOW ABOUT IATSE: THE FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT EDITION?

Out in the homeless encampment and methhead wilds of Encino’s Balboa Park, Lindsay Doughery pauses the thunder in the skies to motivate the troops. Earlier this month, a battle cry went out from the hallows of the IATSE, Teamsters Local 399 and Hollywood Basic Crafts (including electrical workers plasterers, caterers, editors, costumer, SPX, set decorators, […]

THE WB, DISNEY AND NETFLIX STUDIOS PERSONA NON GRATA PICKETLINE SHOW, PART 5 – UNQUIET SLUMBERS FOR THE STRIKERS IN THAT QUIET EARTH AFTERSTRIKE

Picket softly and carry a big stick. On the day of September 23, 2023, approximately early evening on a Sunday, the 2023 Writers Strike was declared officially over – but for me and the gaggle of what remained of the current assembly of ‘The Radford Radicals’ we wanted to take the fight to other areas […]

INTERMISSION : NOT EXACTLY A ALL IN THE CRAZINESS OF STATS YEAR ENDING BLOG, BUT AN INCREDIBLE SIMULATION

Jumbo’s Clown Room – the place I really want to be right now. But something financial just came up right now that needs immediate attention. Wow. 2023. Quite the year. I enjoyed it a whole lot. And with a Democrat running the US of A, I liked it a whole lot even better. Joe Biden […]

THE CBS RADFORD STUDIOS PERSONA NON GRATA PICTURE SHOW, PART 4 – “Secret OriginS of The Radford Radicals”.

I was staring at this picture the other day sent over to me by former Mickey Mouse Club writer Glenn Rabney and I couldn’t help but be reminded of those chilling final moments of Stanley Kubrick’s 1980’s horror classic The Shining as the camera slowly pans in on a wall of framed photographs located in […]

THE CBS RADFORD STUDIOS PERSONA NON GRATA PICTURE SHOW PART 3- ALWAYS LOOK ON THE RADFORD SHADY SIDE OF LIFE

Perhaps I’m jumping ahead of myself here. I thought I could wrap this entire thing up in a mere trilogy, but as I scroll through a whole plethora of unseen photos, I find that I have enough to fill another two volumes, so that brings the grand total to a little over more than 500 […]

THE CBS RADFORD STUDIOS PERSONA NON GRATA PICTURE SHOW PART 2 – WHO NEEDS COMIC-CON WHEN YOU’VE GOT THE COLFAX AVE CLOWN SHOW HAPPENING RIGHT NEXT DOOR?

If you were to ask me if I ever could’ve imagined being personally involved in something so political and controversal – I would’ve said go ask my evil bitch of a half-sister and her satanist spawn of acolyte offspring back east who would drop trou to go cause havoc whatever a bloated orange tanned madman […]

THE CBS RADFORD STUDIOS PERSONA NON GRATA PICTURE SHOW: PART 1 – ACROSS THE RED CLAY BRIDGE OF COLFAX WHERE THE BLUE MEAN STUDIO OVERLORDS ROAR

As promised, I’m shirking my regular writing duties once more to provide some heavy handed commentary on the current WGA/SAG-AFTRA combo meal of great walkout strike proportions. IATSE won’t be too far behind (IATSE= International Alliance of Theater Stage Employees, i.e, the people who get things running smoothly on set including transportation, stagecraft, set builders, […]

WHAT A LONG STRANGE PPGURU STRIKE SUMMER IT’S BEEN…(A Prelude to Another Persona Non Grata Picture Show)

I’m going to be honest – I’m not in the mood to really write this, but I see that August 31st is coming upon my mandatory monthly deliverance schedule and I’ve got to give you PPGuru fans at least SOMETHING for your subscription woes! (that’s all 34 of you). I could ruminate about the ridiculous […]
