Spooky, October-Infused Fuse 8 n’ Kate: The Spider and the Fly by Mary Howitt and Tony DiTerlizzi
At first it was difficult to come up with good Halloween-appropriate picture books. And then someone reminded me of this book. That I didn’t think of it myself is just a crying shame. What a perfect book to do for October! It is now officially the oldest text we’ve done on the podcast, if not […]
Video Sunday: Don’t feed the plants
Happy Day Before the Eclipse! We’ve a couple interesting videos to peruse today, so take your pick! First off, two recent ones from the live feed show I do with the Abraham Lincoln Bookshop. The first is a bit of an aberration since it involves me being interviewed, not the other way around. The lure? […]
Video Sunday: One Video Short
Been a while, hasn’t it? Well, better late than never. And you probably get a better level of quality videos if there’s a month’s gap, eh? Today we begin with the video of the week. The Wall Street Journal released this article about Brian Selznick’s puppeteering work on his own book trailer. For me, it’s […]

Video Sunday: “Luke, I Am Your Father” (in a manner of speaking)

Fusenews: Polar bear, polar bear, what do you see?
Howdy, folks. I’m starting off today with a little podcast-related item. Back in the day I tried podcasting for sport. It was fun (I had my own intro music and everything) but after a while it became clear that podcasting is a labor of love best left to the professionals with their prodigious editing skills, […]
Video Sunday: Je Suis de L’eau
To be honest, I’m not entirely certain why most folks don’t create their own animations to Silverstein poems. It’s not as if he didn’t record his own voice for them time and time again. And whatta voice! I believe someone once compared it to gargling rusty nails. In any case, this week’s Video Sunday is […]
