How Did This Gun in My Hand Get Made - Episode 97

Painting: close up of Caucasian man's face with dark hair hanging over his forehead, a dark mustache, wearing a red domino mask. He leans towards an old microphone with the label "HDTGGM" over it. Four photos of men and women swirl around him.

We’re gonna ballyhoo some stinkeroos,
Shows as cheesy as Milwaukee.
We’re gonna box up the radio and ship it to Biloxi.
Hot Dog! This Guy’s Got Moxie!

Paul, June & Jason of the popular show HDTGGM try to answer the question: how did This Gun in My Hand get made?

How Did This Gun in My Hand Get Made, episode 97 of This Gun in My Hand, was ballyhooed by Rob Northrup. This episode and all others are available on Youtube with automatically-generated closed captions of dialog. Visit http://ThisGuninMyHand.blogspot.com for credits, show notes, archives, information on how to subscribe, and to buy my books, such as Little Heist in the Big Woods and Other Revisionist Atrocities. What tool did I use to make this? This Gun in My Hand!

Show Notes:
1. When Jason Manticore is introduced, the audience is not booing. They’re actually shouting, “Zoooo!” A manticore is a mythical creature. They love him so much, they want to keep him in a zoo.

2. The audio credits at the end of the first episode of This Gun in My Hand said that all the voices were by one person, but not everyone listens to the credits or reads the show notes, as you might be demonstrating if you’re not reading this.

3. The reviews that Paul claims to have found in radio magazines are actual reviews of this podcast posted on various websites. It was my wife in real life who said she liked the part where a female character punches me.
