AN INTRODUCTION

Welcome to THE GRIM WORD.

Every Thursday, from February 16th 2012, I will be broadcasting a 4 hour show on Cook'd & Bomb'd Radio - also known as CaB Radio. Regular highlights include:

THE INSOMNIHOUR, with 'Alert' Al Calnert
Through the decades, Al has been associated with some of the great music artists of our time - Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Mrs Miller to name but a few - but in recent years, has chosen to stay out of the spotlight, now residing in an undisclosed location somewhere in the USA:


From what we can gather, however, he lives in a cabin he built himself, where he has lived - and not slept - for nineteen years. He lives with a kestrel, who he maintains has the spirit of a Native Indian from the Civil War era.

BUY, CURIOUS
I am a collector of vinyl oddities - the more obscure or novelty, the better. In this show, I will take you on a journey through whatever I've recently found in the basement of a record shop, or an album or single on eBay that remains constantly re-listed. All ripped straight from the vinyl, with all the scratchy bits left in.

FROM THE DESK OF GOOCH MERKIN, PI
Residing in Staines, Gooch often takes on detective work involving marital affairs and break-ins, when the client doesn't receive the response they hoped for from the official authorities. His former work partner, Roger Mound, has recently gone missing in Brighton, where Gooch has now traveled to, and has vowed to remain there until he finds him. Unfortunately, his investigations so far has led him to a bar known as The Battered Mermaid, where he spends most of his evenings. It is here where we join him, giving us the latest stories of his investigations.

OPTIMISM FOR CYNICS & LIARS
Mixes combining music with film and television excerpts, based on various themes. Previous shows have included: 'Behind The Mask Of Sanity', 'Love, Lust, Madness and Death', and 'All Consuming'.

THE GRIM EXPERIENCE
An anthology series in which each episode is a different story, often featuring unappealing characters who should probably (and may possibly) be killed off by the end of the episode.

THE CaB RADIO ROADSHOW
Budget pending.

To avoid confusion, the name I go by on the show is 'Dr Christian Troy', or 'DCT' for short, as this is my username on www.cookdandbombd.co.uk. I was particularly fond of the TV series Nip/Tuck at the time of signing up to the forum, so settled for the name of the character, Dr Christian Troy, who I am not similar to in any way.

More news and information to come over the next few weeks.
