Happy Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Perchtenlauf, Requiem of the Dead, Tongzhi, Christmas, Yule or Winter Solstice.

On this episode of the Invisible Web Cast, I interview the only court certified historian of the combat sports, Karl Stern once again for the first half of the show. We discuss DC vs Marvel Comics continuity, 52, Annihilation, and some good recent reads. We also touch on some Wrestling history. As a bonus he reads part of his novel, Absence of Absalom, now available for the Amazon Kindle and all compatible readers. Approximately 46 minutes of whackiness~!

And on the second half of the show, the Out There Trilogy comes full circle as “Stunning” Austin Gandy of Disinfo World News and formerly Out There Radio, joins us for more than 45 more minutes of hijinks~! We reveal the origins of young Austin. The discussion is had of popul;ar holiday customs of traditions including but not limited to reindeer. Then SUMOM is brought up. What is SUMOM? Find out the answer to that question and others on this episode. Plus we try to sort out our colleague, the Popo Bawa’s career as a childrens’ television star. And a bonus surprise appears.

Download it now.

And thanks once again to Wendy Rule for her song, “La Femme de la Mer.”  How can an epic show end without an epic song of timeless proportions?

The Invisible Web Episode 21 (0302) - Fighting 63 in Japan

On this episode of the Invisible Web I interview Roxanne Modafferi, who is one of the headliners for the inaugural GCM VALKYRIE MMA show on Saturday, at Tokyo’s Differ Ariake (doors open 1:00 PM Tokyo and 2:00 is bell time). We discuss the etymological origins of her family name, her mini feud with Megumi Yabushita, training with the Wajyutsu Keishukai Network (Caol Uno and Yushin THUNDA Okami), anime, and more. And as a bonus I read Time and the Gods by Lord Dunsany. Roxanne’s official website. Fightlinker, her top sponsors who sell her t-shirts. Time and the Gods at Project Gutenberg.

UPDATE: Roxanne won the decision in her fight today at the inaugural VALKYRIE show against Chisa Yonezawa. Congratulations~!!
