Captain Roy's Rocket Radio Show: The Uk Podcast For The Culture Geek, Technology Nerd, And Creative Wizard

This week I chat with prolific UK author Christopher Fowler, creator of the Bryant and May mystery series, as well as many other works of genre fiction, see https://www.christopherfowler.co.uk/ He also expounds some useful writing advice and, oddly, appears to share my difficulty in finding the new entrance of Foyles (about 10ft left of the old entrance - there's a big sign!) Despite his previous work in the film industry, deep connections with Hollywood, and the Bond films' cast and crew, he still can't help me get a date with Berenice Marlohe. Damnit. I also update you about my own writing and let you know what to expect from the show in the next few weeks.

This week, as well as talking about Doctor Who, I update you about my online dating, the contributor and guest situation and the state of my own writing.

Today I chat with Dave Strand from Arizona (who is also a bit of a local rock star) about his audio interactive fiction games that you can find at https://www.multipathaudio.net. We also discuss my continuing online dating saga, Ninjalicious, a job vacancy at Roy's Rocket Radio, listener feedback, how we write, Avengers: Age of Ultron and I moan about too many spoilery Mad Max: Fury Road trailers. George Miller, are you listening? Well, are you? We also stray into some audio production topics that may be of interest to prospective podcasters.

Daredevil (2015) is the perfect nerdstorm and this week I chat about the reboot of this iconic Marvel superhero, Gotham, Jared Leto's new-look Joker, Batfleck, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four and Avengers: Age of Ultron with actor Chris Townsend of Intangible Productions. This podcast also includes valuable information regarding the aroma exuded by Robert Downey Jr, male grooming and nerd dating and was recorded on Sunday morning in a busy department store restaurant.
