Itty-Bits 2 Ivan the Terrible

'Itty-Bits #2: Ivan the Terrible' originally aired on the show A Word In Edgewise, June 10th 2014, on KVMR community radio station in Nevada City, CA. The show is a strange sonic tapestry of music and spoken word for the culturally marginalized elite. In short, it's 'storytime for grownups'. This piece - taken from Part II of a two part series - was one of eleven musically guided readings of peculiar weirdos throughout history. The text is taken from the graphic novel "The Big Book of Weirdos" by Gahan Wilson. It's read by Marco Dacio with sound design by Tenali.
