A Lovecraftian scholar since childhood, Jack “The Agnostic” Garcia presents the definitive program on the life and literary legacy of the one and only Howard Phillips Lovecraft. During his own lifetime H.P. was confined to the pages of various Pulp-Fiction magazines and never lived to see his massive body of work published in book form. His disciples (The Lovecraftian Circle) devoted their lives to giving Lovecraft’s work the literary and cultural significance it deserved. Jack also examines the lives and work of the other great Weird Tales authors (Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard and August Derleth ). You won’t find this on Satellite radio, public television or cable networks, only on GRR.

Jack “The Agnostic” Garcia, an expert on Silent cinema presents the definitive program on the life and work of the great Lon Chaney. Born to deaf-mute parents, Chaney grew up in a world of silence, developing the art of pantomime to an unrivaled majesty. In film after film, Chaney with the help of his Pandora’s Box-like makeup kit, portrayed a series of tortured Christ-like characters who endured their suffering on the silent Silver screen with an almost divine grace. Jack gets into deep analysis of all of Chaney’s horror films including the 10 movie collaborations with the weirdly gifted director Tod Browning ( a cinematic master of the morbid and macabre).
