  • Anything “Secrets of Hollywood”

    Special favorites?

    The Val Lewton “Shadows” series which I’m now listening to for the second time.

    “Baby” about Jean Harlow.

    The Hitchcock series.

    The Audrey Hepburn series—a shattering WWII history lesson.

    “Hunting Witches…” a sobering American history lesson.

    “A Universe of Horrors”

    Mesmerizing all. And there are others I haven’t mentioned. I can't recommend Adam’s work highly enough.

  • Attaboy Adam!

    Such a brilliant and entertaining series. Adam researches his topics thoroughly and then presents in such a way as to grab your interest and then maintain it. And after you’ve dipped your toes in Attaboy Clarence, look up EVERYTHING else Adam Roche has. You will NOT be disappointed. I’m just sorry I didn’t discover Adam until after Melbourne had lived through the world’s longest lockdowns. Would have made it sooo much easier to endure.
