The News Update – December 2017

Here is the news for the month of December:

Spotify – Ron’s Amazing Stories will soon to be available on the mobile version of Spotify! This is something I tried and failed to get from the beginning. I did all of the paperwork and am now waiting for the podcast to show up on the list. So, if you are Spotify user, on your phone or tablet, be sure to favorite us and rate us. This is a big step forward!

The Blog – Do you read the blog? My numbers suggest that maybe fifty of you do. The blog is an extension to the show often with more information about what you are hearing or what is coming up. It is weekly and you can follow it on WordPress, Facebook or have an email sent to you when it is updated.

Stories – I have had a shortage stories of late, which is not unusual for the holiday season. You can send me your stories, stories ideas or request a call back at ronsmazingstories.com and click on the contact tab. Your stories are what makes this… Ron’s Amazing Stories!

Upcoming events – We have some cool stuff coming to the show. Jason and I are preparing The Horror Express #20! This show will cover UFO’s and Jason is going to talk about the recent find in Peru that has everyone rethinking the alien part of ufology! My Brother Jim is preparing to tell us all about his strange visit to an ancient Scottish chapel, and I am working on scheduling interviews with some upcoming authors. It just keeps getting better!

RAS #305 – Arizona Lightning

A few weeks ago, a listener to the podcast sent me an email. He said, he had a story that I might like, but he was neither a storyteller or a writer. I am always up for a good story, so I got him on the phone and listened. I am here to tell you that Jasen (with an E) is a great storyteller and that his story headlines this Ron’s Amazing Stories.

Our OTR Story – Planet Zevious

Our OTR story for this week comes from the series Mysterious Traveler. It was written and directed by Robert Arthur and David Kogan on the Mutual Broadcasting System. The lonely sound of a distant locomotive heralded the arrival of the show and our story. It is called Planet Zevious, and its ending sent chills through this podcasters spine! It first aired on August 2, 1949.

Arizona Lightning – A True Story

“ I was driving between stations when I saw a flash of light. It was lightning, actual bolts spraying out from alone, isolated storm. I had never seen lightning like that before. I stared in awe. It looked like jewelry, some kind of tiara, on a mountain. I never knew that 4:00 am could be so beautiful. I never knew it could be so terrifying!” – Jasen from Carefree, Arizona (A real place – I checked).

Note: The picture comes from Jasen’s own camera and was taken that night. If you want to hear the whole story tune into the podcast this week!

Replay – The Horror Express #10

Let me say happy Thanksgiving (2017) to you and your families!

This time on Ron’s Amazing Stories we replay, The Horror Express – Psychic Bystander, to celebrate the season. Whenever I pick a podcast to replay, I try to follow a set criteria, but the truth of the matter is that there is only one question, “Is this an episode that I would want to listen to again?”

Hands down what I have for you is one of my favorites. It is episode ten of The Horror Express. My Co-Host Jason and I welcome to the train Louisa Oakley Green. She is a real gem and not a psychic, but her husband is! Just imagine the adventures that can lead to!

Program Note: The Horror Express Episode #10 first aired on November 26, 2015.

RAS #304 – August Heat

On Ron’s Amazing Stories the podcast we have a supernatural tale from Suspense that you will take you to the limit. Also, we have something special the involves both Baseball and Shakespeare. Add a short skit, a Five Minute Mystery and there you have, A podcast.

Our OTR Story – August Heat

Now that we are in the month of November I thought we would warm things up a bit by playing one from old-time radio’s masters of suspense, Suspense! Our story stars academy award winning actor, Ronald Colman, and comes from a hot summer’s day. An artist experiences a strange series of events that appears to signal a decidedly dark fate. It is based on a short story by W. F. Harvey, is called August Heat and first aired on May 31, 1945.

Program Note: You might want to stick around to the very end. I’m just saying!
