Whims of Resistance
A seriously whimsical blend of humor, parody, comic relief, and news about the growing resistance movement. Plus, as a bonus, it’s a place for indulging in nostalgia, with the “A Look Behind in Rewind” podcast series that’s reminiscent of the late great Jean Shepherd of WOR-Radio. Tom’s stories range from childhood escapades to college hijinks to crazy tales from film/broadcast/ad agency days, including interviews with American Bandstand mogul Dick Clark and others. “A Look Behind in Rewind” podcast lengths are generally 8-10 minutes; other pieces vary in length, depending on subject matter.

Whims of Resistance
Edgar Allen Shmoe
Season 2, Episode 53: As the holiday of Halloween once again emerges from the crypt, we take a fond look back at some scary stories from years gone by, including a few old favorites from Edgar Allen Poe. A perfect excuse for settling back in your easy chair, sipping a favorite bubbling beverage, and listening to horror classics from the golden age of Hollywood, when Vincent Price was the undisputed king of gore. In this podcast series, Tom Nielson tells stories, shares memories, and concocts whimsical, light-hearted tales inspired by his own life experiences, channeling the styles of Jean Shepherd, Garrison Keillor, Mark Twain, Jerry Seinfeld, and other renowned storytellers.
