Hello And Welcome!

Hello and welcome to the podcast. This is Ron’s Amazing Stories, where we play tales to take you away from today. – Ronald Hood

One of the questions I get asked all of the time is, “Where did that opening come from?”

The Shadow KnowsI never really thought about it, but if I had to come up with a reason my answer would be… don’t all shows have one? I guess in fact they don’t, but in my humble opinion the good ones do. Take for example the phrase, “The Shadow Knows.” We all associate that with the famous radio series starring Orson Welles. How about, There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. That of course was from the Outer Limits anthology series.

I guess for me it is way of welcoming you home for an hour of entertainment. Starting the show the same way each week means you are ready to take your break and enjoy what I have to offer. It seems to work, because the comment I get the most is, I can’t wait to be taken away from today.

Thank you for all of your questions. It is a joy to be your podcast host!

-Ron

No More Replays!

No Replays on Ron's Amazing Stories!As a podcaster, it is important that the shows get done on time. However, there have been instances where I have taken time off and replayed an old podcast. I hate doing this. I would rather put a new product out each week for you to enjoy then rehash the old stuff. This is an impossible situation. After all, life happens, and you just can’t be there all the time.

I have found a fix for this and I am calling it, The Best of Ron’s Amazing Stories. While technically still a replay there is a difference. I get to handpick the best content from over 300 podcasts and put them together in a whole new way. In fact, I can even have new material to balance out the old. For example, right now we are playing the book Anything You Can Do by Randall Garrett. I can build around that new material with some of the best of the old. I think this makes sound sense.

You might be asking, “Wait Ron won’t that be just as much work?”

The answer is, not really. You see putting old stuff together with new takes far less time and I plan to create a number of these shows so, when I need some time off they will be ready to go. This concept feels better to me than a replay. So, this week we have a test pilot. I am calling it  the Best Of #1 and it will air this Thursday. Please be vocal and critical on this one. I want to know what works and what does not.

-Ron
