Ep. 21: Ghost Brothers Trapped Under The Dome

Episode 21: Ghost Brothers Trapped Under The Dome
With your host Hans Lilja of Lilja's Library and Lou Sytsma.
Big changes for our 21st podcast!
New podcast host and a new name for the podcast. Formerly known as The Lilja & Lou Podcast we decided to make the name more reflective of what it is really about - Stephen King. So the podcast will be known as The Stephen King Podcast going forward. Simple. Direct. And hopefully it will become more visible to Stephen King fans everywhere.
Also, since this host is more expencive then the previous one we'd like to ask anyone who can and feel they want to help us out to do so. We will still continue doing the podcast even if we get no donations but it would certainly make both our lives a bit easier if we do.
We have set up a PayPal account for this purpose so anyone who has a $ (or a few) that you feel you can spare, we’d really appreciate it. Send your donations to LiljaLouPodcast@gmail.com.
This episode features in depths reviews of the Stephen King / John Coguar Mellencamp collaboration - The Ghost Brothers of Darkland County.
We also review the first ten episodes of the hit CBS summer TV series Under The Dome based on the King book of the same name.
We hope you will all enjoy this episode and as usual we want to hear from you, good or bad, we want it all!

Podcast update
Posted: August 15, 2013, 10:29:18
Episode 21 of The Lilja & Lou Podcast is about to be released in a week or two. We apologize that it has taken a bit longer this time but with summer and all it couldn’t be helped. Also, we have gotten a new host for the podcast. The one we have been using earlier had restrictions that would have meant that older episodes would have had to go to give space for newer. Something we didn’t want to happen. So, we will have a new podcast host for new and old episodes when episode 21 goes live. That’s the good news.
The bad news is that it costs money. So, if anyone of you out there who enjoys the podcast wants to help us out with the hosting of the podcast you are most welcome. We will still continue doing the podcast even if we get no donations but it would certainly make both our lives a bit easier if we did.
We have set up a PayPal account for this purpose so anyone who has a $ (or a few) that you feel you can spare, we’d really appreciate it. Send your donations to LiljaLouPodcast@gmail.com.
Thanks!
