Chapter One of the HURRICANE SPECTACULAR, "Hell and High Water"!
It's been five whole years since I gave this one a listen, and it amazed me in spots! Not to mention being incredibly TIMELY in its themes of disaster and survival, what with these current events going on. True, I was only going to do one Hurricane Katrina-themed show, but from this single nut of a show, a 17-hour, 17-headed hydra emerged to become a uniquely Amerikan armchair revenge odyssey. This is the foundation of the saga: the Hurricane Katrina backstory, full of intrigue and suspicion, mystery and conspiracy. In an atmosphere of killer storms and mysteriously exploding levees, the inundation begins, sweeping with it chunks of King Uszniewicz and His Uszniewicztones, a little Katrina and the Waves (*had* to!), and a stunning duet between Jimmy Swaggart and Dread Zeppelin where you will hear, vividly, how easy it is to twist a man's words. All I did was seamlessly switch "God" and "Satan," and "loves" and "hates," and even *I* was convinced! And YES, the Mothra sequence was already in the original.
See what I meant? TIMELY.

Who's "Bob" you ask? What's Slack, you ask? What's next, you're gonna ask what FUN is??? Pull your head out of your ass and render it unto the tender ministrations of the Flooze as she washes your brain with that hyperbolic cocktail of hypgnotic collages and the kind of grade-A bulldada that you'll need to survive these New Dark Ages.
