Show Notes
With his unexpected passing, it was mandatory that we gather up some of our good friends/geniuses to get together for an evening talking about and celebrating the great Udo Kier. Join Dan and Bradley for this fine evening, with their good friends/guests/all-stars Heather, Carmelita and Paul. Big thanks to all of them for joining us and sharing how Udo has impacted them personally through his films and more. It's a wide ranging discussion, with our usual derailings and discoveries, with just enough time to barely scratch the surface of such a storied life and a career that featured over 200 film credits to his name. our guests: Heather Drain and all things MONDO HEATHER can be found here: https://linktr.ee/mondoheather Paul Grammatico can be found on Bluesky https://bsky.app/profile/paulwriteshorror.bsky.social and here: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Paul-Grammatico/author/B0DRWCJL6L?ref_=ast_author_cp&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=e49ac198-9bcc-47fd-93d0-960a3186f633 Carmelita Valdez McKoy can be found here https://x.com/CarmelitaSays (this episode was already released on our free Patreon feed, to get MFH episodes before anyone else, get on over to our Patreon feed and join in - like I said, its FREE!)
