Welcome back to the Manor! And welcome to an episode James had promised many dozens of episodes ago or more.... a history of two handed tapping on the guitar! Of course the ending of the episode prominently features Eddie Van Halen, as well as other notable guitar gods such as Randy Rhoads and Jimmy Page, but the beginning goes back hundreds of years. So pull a pint and enjoy!
Next week's episode is about (stay tuned).

We did it, brutes! We made it to 200! So join us in the study with a pint and pipe or whatever you want, as we present the second half of 1964 from the original unaired podcast idea, The Heavy Metal and Hard Rock History Podcast. No, we're not changing the podcast. It's just a special. So hang tight next week for more typical Macabre Manor fun!
But for now, enjoy some context as to what was going on in the world at the time rock and roll was becoming rock, which would lead us to hard rock and heavy metal.
Next week's episode is a history of guitar finger tapping (featuring, of course, Eddie Van Halen)

Welcome back to the Manor! Welcome back to what seems to be an annual event! Robert Burns, Scottish poet, is celebrated on his birthday (January 25th) with wide recognition in Scotland and wherever the Scots diaspora are living. We're doing our part by having a wee dram or a Wee Heavy and reading some of our most beloved Burns poetry.
To Burnsie!
Next week's episode is about (stay tuned).

Welcome back to the Manor! Make sure to pull your pint after doing your silly walk. We're continuing with our Monty Python series 2 arc! A few of our favorite skits from some episodes, as well as what the Pythons were doing just before they started putting together Python itself. Ni!
Next week's episode is more on Tommy Bolin.

Welcome back to the Manor! We're continuing our haunted pubs series (that we started with the A Kinda Creepy Podcast crossover back in October) with Ye Olde Man & Scythe (a name which has special meaning today for James!). We talk about the pub's history, haunting, and ales. We also have an update from our Yule episodes, with James' traipsing about the countryside on Midwinter on his year walk and then around his neighborhood as the Seamus Lwyd. Pull up a chair and pull a pint and enjoy!
Next week's episode is the continuation of our Monty Python series 2 arc.

Welcome back to the Manor! It's our usual of the year spectacular, where we discuss Iron Maiden (as we usually do) and our top ten albums of the year. Also, there is a chance that we have some other top ten lists, but James is putting this up online and Jody edited it, so James isn't sure what's on there (didn't have time to listen) -- so it's a surprise for at least three of us! (James and our two listeners... Bazinga).
Next week's episode is a special episode--- a haunted British pub, some Midwinter fun, and maybe more!

Welcome back tot the Manor! Light your pipe (Dutch style like Santa if you have it), pour a pint (or a dram or a Wassail bowl of mead), turn down the lights, and get ready to get your Christmas ghost story scare! We're releasing this on our Christmas Eve day episode so that you can get one good Christmas Ghost Story on the proper day of the year.
If it seems a little ale oriented, what would you expect from something written by James?
We also discuss how to write a Ghost Story for Christmas, as given by those more expert than us.
Next week's episode is our usual year and episode with Iron Maiden, but also various end of year tidbits, such as favorite albums and updates.

So get ready for some Yule frights and enjoy!
Next week's episode is an original ghost story for Christmas! Oooooo!
