Episode 4: A Tribute to Summer Under the Stars

This week, in honor of TCM's month-long Summer Under the Stars, I give some history on the popular August theme (thanks to Yacov Freedman of TCM Backlot for helping!). Later, I'm joined by Marion Davies biographer Lara Fowler to count down the three days you should make time for during Summer Under the Stars on TCM.
NEXT WEEK: It's a Tale of the Christ as guest Rick Aragon and I talk about the various incarnations of Ben-Hur.
 
*Note: It was requested I put out the show in mono. If you'd like to keep the podcast in stereo or prefer mono, let me know!

Episode 3: Planet of the Apes (1968)

I talk with Dwight Hurst about the 1968 sci-fi adventure Planet of the Apes in honor of TCM's recent nationwide screening of the film. 
Dwight and I talk world-building, the film's racial implications, and why on Earth Charlton Heston has to be naked. I also read my first listener email.
 
NEXT TIME: I'll be honoring TCM's Summer Under the Stars

The luminous Olivia de Havilland turned 100 on July 1st and I sit down with Olivia fan Nora Fiore to discuss her life and career while citing our top three favorite de Havilland features. Want to share your own? Email me at ticklishbiz@gmail.com and I'll read comments on a future episode.

Episode 1: An Introduction and Audio From the TCM Classic Film Festival

In this inaugural episode of Ticklish Business I'll be bringing you audio from the 2016 TCM Classic Film Festival starting with Angela Lansbury interview with Alec Baldwin. You'll also hear my red carpet interviews with TCM General manager Jennifer Dorian, Daryl Hickman, and Leonard Maltin. *Apologies for the low audio volume in the bookends, I finally figured out how to properly set the audio from my new microphone.
