Last night, Roy and I were initiated into “The Secrets of Isis” (1975-77). Thank you so much to our special guests, Lisa Everetts, of the podcast POP ninja, and Brian Cutler Actors Studio, who played Rick Mason on the show, for joining us in paying tribute to actress Joanna Cameron. Their insights and anecdotes provided valuable glimpses behind the scenes and into Cameron’s personality.
If you are an “Isis” fan, DEFINITELY check out Everett’s podcast, recorded with cohost Patrick Bennett. The entire month of March was devoted to “The Shazam!/Isis Hour,” with extensive conversations with the casts of both shows. Follow the link below, and scroll down for appearances by Michael Gray (Billy Batson) and John Davey (the second Captain Marvel) on March 3, Joanna Cameron on March 10, Joanna Pang and Brian Cutler on March 17, Jackson Bostwick (the first Captain Marvel) on March 24, and Jill Vance Keenan (Cameron’s stunt double) on March 31. A very impressive reunion!

Next time, Roy and I will welcome my good friend and Tolkien connoisseur, Paul Miller, who will join us for some reminiscences about the Rankin-Bass adaptation of “The Hobbit” (1977). You know, the one featuring the vocal talents of Orson Bean, John Huston, Hans Conried, Otto Preminger, Cyril Ritchard, and Brother Theodore as Gollum! This eagerly-awaited NBC television special was first broadcast on Thanksgiving weekend.
We’ll be chipping the glasses and cracking the plates (that’s what Bilbo Baggins hates), on the next Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner. Troll us in the comments section, as we livestream on Facebook, NEXT SUNDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 28, AT 7:00 EST. (Note that we will be off on Black Friday!)
