Dr. Floyd Report
"The Radio Adventures of Dr. Floyd,"
starring Doug Price and Grant Baciocco, is "the internet’s longest
running, professionally produced, family friendly podcast." Grant is
a friend of Satellite News, and you may have noticed his name in the
credits for Cinematic Titanic's "The Oozing Skull" DVD, for which he
provided sound effects.
The show began with the short film "Road Trip"--which you can see at
doctorfloyd.com--followed
by the comedy/juggling act of Michael Rayner. He invited several
children from the audience to assist him, and was very
funny. Michael was also involved with "The Oozing Skull" DVD, having been
one of the silhouetted figures that led the CT crew into the theater at the
beginning.
Then Grant introduced the performers and the actual Dr. Floyd show
began. I won't give too much away, and will only say that the story
revolves around a scheme to travel back in time to make money from
early comic book publishers (a plot appropriate for Comic-Con).
Legendary performer Chuck
McCann (yes, the guy from "Far Out Space
Nuts") played one of those publishers, providing his character with
a raspy, yet booming, 1930's executive voice. Frank was the other
publisher and...well, sounded like Frank. You won't have any
problems recognizing his voice. Other performers included author
Cecil Castellucci, voice artist
Wally Wingert (who provided the
voice of Almighty Tallest Red on "Invader Zim") and new "Dr. Floyd"
regular Moira Quirk. Several
children from the audience were also
asked onstage to help out.
After the performance, Frank was
approached by a few audience members for the obligatory signing of
the ACEG and other MST paraphernalia, then a few minutes later told
me has was heading out for his two hour drive back to L.A. And thus
the MST3K cast member presence at Comic-Con came to an end.
Look for "Mint Condition" to be
posted on
doctorfloyd.com in about a week or so.
