Obscurity Knocks: Episode 7 - John Heard

from Obscurity Knocks Hosted by Will Harris

Yes, it's been ages since we last posted an episode - we discuss our absence a bit in a very special intro that's all apologies - but we're back with an episode that was actually reocrded a year ago today. The sound quality varies wildly throughout, but the stories are great, so here's hoping you can endure the sonic shortcomings to enjoy the tales that our guest spins. You probably recognize his face, but if you don't remember his name, it's John Heard, and he's been a working actor since the '70s, and he's never stopped working, spending time on the stage, on TV, and in films. He's a man who isn't afraid to speak his mind, and you'll have proof of that almost as soon as you hit "play." Here's hoping you enjoy the proceedings, and we promise you this: we're going to get better at this. No, seriously, we really are.

Explicit Hello From Obscurity Wesley Erickson, Peter Clark, Lily Lenarz Hooyman, and Sam Pavich In our opinion, movies can be found in one of two realms. The realm of The Renown: Those active in the minds of pop culture, your masterpieces, your witty comedies, your impactful horror.There are even those so bad they’re good: cult classics.This is not a show about those movies.Instead we bravely venture into the realm of The Forgotten. We plummet the depths of cinema, searching amidst the left behind, the 7th at the box office and bottom of the bargain bin. We seek out neglected films to find the ones worth salvaging from oblivion and banish the unworthy back to the abyss. What hidden gems will we find on our exploration? What mediocre plotlines will we unearth? And what artifacts, that may at first have been overlooked, will we reclaim? Explicit No Season Two George Gordon and Meaghan Curran Join us as we discuss shows that never lasted more than a season. George and Meaghan will break everything down episode by episode, giving you our thoughts and opinions on everything from the characters, the fashion, and the music. Join us on the journey of rediscovering or discovering for the first time shows that were either cut short or faded away into obscurity. Explicit Inbetweeners with Liam & Jon Inbetweeners with Liam & Jon In between obscurity & fame sit Liam & Jon, who put a spotlight on animation oddities, whether they be niche, truly bizarre, or simply fallen out of the zeitgeist with the the passage of time.
