Episode 6

Looking at The BK Show through the lens of Todd Bowman (May 2003).


I finally finished post production on Episode 6 of THE BRICE KENNEDY SHOW. The sixth installment of the show was shot in May of 2003 at the Monongalia Arts Center in Morgantown.

My guest is Larry Nelson, formerly of Froggy 102.7's morning show, who has worked in radio and television for more than 30 years. Also, Billy and Dan Zwiener of the band Sandra Black stop in for a tune or two and I venture to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland to interview random persons and spread THE BRICE KENNEDY SHOW love.

Eventually, I'll be putting the entire series (Episodes 1-6) on DVD. I've been asked if I'm planning to air the show again on public access. I think that as I'm concentrating on reporting, it'd be a conflict of interest to air the show in its current form so, for now at least, I have no plans to air or market the show. But one never knows what the future holds. And if you really wanna see it, just give me a yell. ;)

A New Caaaaaar!!

1993 Chrysler Lebaron with 54K miles on it for $1250. Not bad. (June 2005)


So I meet this guy recently who tells me to "come on down" to Missouri. I told him the "Price" was definitely "Right". All lame-o "Price Is Right" puns aside, I just got back from Ozark, Missouri where I did indeed get my new car.

I found my new best friend on eBay of all places and despite some initial skepticism decided not to pass up this deal. It's a 1993 Chrysler Lebaron 4-door sedan with a 3.0L V6 and only 54,000 miles. The best part? I got it for $1250 so I definitely made out alright. My friend Danny Cameron, of THE BRICE KENNEDY SHOW and WEST VIRGINIA WORKS "fame", accompanied me on my 14 hour journey to the Show Me state. We passed through Columbus and Indianapolis and stopped off in St. Louis where we got to see the Gateway Arch and drove over medians in our late-model Dodge Dakota rental.

Things turned a bit dramatic as the starter blew just minutes before arriving in Ozark. Wade, the seller, fixed the problem at no charge and everyone was all smiles again. We were exhausted as we turned right around and drove back, this time through Kentucky. So I got a kick-ass road trip AND a kick-ass deal out of it. I wonder what I'll do next weekend.

Back From Hell

(l-r) Brian Berry, Bob Dennis, Dave Fife, Ken VanSant & Brice Kennedy
take no prisoners in HELLSHOCK (May 2005).


Well, I just got back last week from Wellsboro where the Polonias and Jon McBride finished principal photography on HELLSHOCK. In the movie, I play Private Danby, one of four U.S. Army soldiers who find themselves in the middle of Bulgaria during WWII. The band of soldiers encounter an odd Bulgarian priest who isn't all that he seems. I shan't say too much more about the plot but I will say that it was awesome to finally get to work with Bob Dennis, Brian Berry and Ken VanSant in person. We've all been in features together but always shot our scenes separately so that was nice. It was also great staying at Ye Olde Germania Store and Lodge, a rustic old time country store and lodge from the 1800's. The atmosphere and hospitality really added to the trip. Thanks Lonnie and Roxy!

HELLSHOCK is slated for a mid-December release and the guys hope to have a theatrical premiere at the Arcadia Theater in downtown Wellsboro. You can find more pics and info on HELLSHOCK and other films at The Cult of Polonia fan site.

Also, a quick shout to my man Optimus Prime over in Iraq. Optimus - yes, the guy from Ohio who legally changed his name to that of the Transformers character - Optimus is a firefighter in the National Guard and currently stationed in Iraq. He recently sent me some pictures from over there which I'll probably post in the near future. Godspeed, brother.

Music For Your Ears

Yeah, so I haven't posted anything of note in a couple of weeks. Music you say?

Sandra Black. These guys have been on my show several times and their sound is so addictingly unique... just go there.

The Emergency. What can I say? If you aren't listening to their stuff, you'd better call Jan Care Ambulance Service as you obviously have a serious medical deficiency of some sort.

New Movies!

RAZORTEETH, now available everywhere... starring ME! (April 2005).


My latest movie just hit the streets! A downed plane! A lake with bikini-clad babes! A Russian experiment gone awry! Underwater shots of piranha! Yes, RAZORTEETH is out on DVD!

In the newest offering from the legendary Polonia Brothers, I play FBI Agent Dawson... one of the bad guys, which is a nice change. Agent Dawson dispatches another agent to a resort lake where a crashed plane has unleashed legions of killer pirahna. As the distributor, SRS Cinema, put it, RAZORTEETH "takes a bite out of old fashioned drive-in cinema". RAZORTEETH is available from Barnes & Noble, Netflix, Best Buy, Amazon, Overstock.com, CD Universe or directly from SRS Cinema.

At the end of the month, I'll also be traveling to Wellsboro to shoot the next adventure, the WWII supernatural thriller HELLSHOCK. You can check out more info about the movie at the fan site The Cult of Polonia.

Oh yeah, hello to Jody and Kassie. Peeping Toms!
