THE PROCTOR PODCAST
     Featuring .... Phil reading from his biography
with added archival and just plain fun sound design

The hilarious, startling biography of Phil Proctor, the co-founder of the legendary satirical comedy group, the Firesign Theatre, and soon to be returning to "The Rugrats" shares personal stories and insights from his decades of work in comedy, TV, film and even the Broadway stage.

Learn how Phil, with Peter Bergman, Phil Austin and David Ossman, as the Firesign Theatre, predicted reality TV, hackers, computer viruses, virtual reality, the fall of the Soviet Union, 9/11 and more.  

From the early days of radio and TV to contemporary feature films, the "Where's My Fortune Cookie?" podcasts bring Phil's book to life.

Jack's Last Call: Say Goodbye to Kerouac

Picture
Opening in Northport, Long Island, in 1964 and recorded, in part, at one of Kerouac's favorite area bars, the story hitchhikes its way back and forth through Kerouac's life, blending recollections of his youth, his life on the road, and his discomfort with his own celebrity. Ambient acoustics, sparing use of sound effects, and period music help create a touching collage of the writer's life. Len Cariou, portraying a journalist biographer, narrates."
