PIERSON: I don’t know what to think. The metal casing is definitely extraterrestrial …not found on this earth. Friction with the earth’s atmosphere usually tears holes in a meteorite. This thing is smooth and, as you can see, of cylindrical shape.

PHILLIPS: Just a minute! Something’s happening! Ladies and gentlemen, this is terrific! This end of the thing is beginning to flake off! The top is beginning to rotate like a screw! The thing must be hollow!

VOICES: She’s movin’! Look, the darn thing’s unscrewing! Keep back, there! Keep back, I tell you! Maybe there’s men in it trying to escape! It’s red hot, they’ll burn to a cinder! Keep back there. Keep those idiots back!”

Episode 25: with Stefanie Reinsch

A reckless gallop into the unknown. Please join our host Phil Malcom and his special guest Stefanie Reinsch, devoted reader of only the longest Russian novels. Together in this hour, Phil and Stefanie learn several valuable lessons, including but not limited to: “Poles love money and kolaches”, “Dimitri Fyodorovich is a werewolf”, and, last but not least, “Sometimes you can’t get people to come to your party because they all have lice”. As for the story itself, it charges forward, beginning with a desperate horseback ride that culminates in a bizarre party-planning session with a peasant. Will Dimitri’s lustful passions end in bloodshed? It remains to be seen. Are there gypsies around? We can only hope. Will we ever finish this very long book? No one can know. It’s The Brothers Karamazov and Friends, where we don’t know enough to know that we should fear the unknown.

You may have read the mighty great news by now, but our new friends at Zipline Brewing Co. have offered to donate all of their February tips to The Colonel Mustard. WOW, right? FYI: The Zipline taproom is open on Fridays from 4 to 7 pm and Saturdays from 1 to 7 pm, so any group of Mustardians who would like to partake in some LOCAL BREWS and grand ol’ times should head out there this final weekend of the month.

Episode 24: with Carrie Todd

An episode of false assumptions. In this week’s reading of The Brothers Karamazov, Dmitri is mistaken about the nature of an old woman’s charity, and our humble readers are mistaken about the proper amount of whiskey someone should consume while recording a podcast. Carrie Todd joins us at the readers’ table with her small reindeer-dog, Lulu and mistakenly assumes that she can break the unwritten no-swearing policy. Yes, dear listeners, there are some swears. Our alarm quickly calms, however, as Carrie assures us that “sometimes adults say words.” On this week’s episode we are also delighted to read about Dmitri’s upcoming lavish party, at which guests can expect to enjoy up to four watermelons. In the midst of all this, Carrie brags about her iPhone, and our two readers engage in a spirited debate about the nature of Dostoevsky’s death. Words are mispronounced, dogs squeal, and a whole lot of peanut butter-filled pretzels are eaten. It’s pretty much a clusterbleep.

Episode 0.2: Regrettably, we give you Season 2.

In this completely adequate introduction to the second season of our long foray into the endless pile of pages that comprise the greatest novel of all time, Phil is joined by two former guests, each Dostoevsky scholars, who encourage him to continue his quest to read a very long novel. The journey is long, and the path is fraught with dangers, but Mme. Kerns and M. Huckabee voice their strong support. “Read on! Read on!” they say. And so we shall. Join us this week as we remember heartwarming/confusing/unfortunate moments from our first season (some of which are probably better left forgotten) and look ahead to a new collection of characters, chapters, and chaps. Lindsay and Tyler offer suggestions for ways to spice up the second half of the novel, and Phil listens quietly. Is this the best way to revive your interest in a book so long it took us 23 hours to read the first half? Perhaps not. But listen anyway! It’s The Brothers Karamazov and Friends, where you always get what you pay for.

On the eve of 2013, The Colonel Mustard proudly presented a revived and revamped rendition of THE HAINTS OF LIEUTENANT MUSTARD, a tragicomic chronicle of the life and times of our antihero and nonpatron ALBERT WATKINS.

He was the man who once proclaimed, “A play is a indecent thing.” You may now watch at your own discomfort.
