The Fourth Tower of Inverness continues… Week 12

TODAY on Vir­tu­al Com­mu­ni­ty Radio — Fri­day, Decem­ber 10th.
The Fourth Tow­er of Inver­ness  con­tin­ues with Week 12 — the penul­ti­mate episode of this excit­ing mys­tery adventure.

Airs just after the hour at Noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific Time / 8pm and mid­night in the UK.

This week, Jack pole-vaults right over the mys­te­ri­ous city… and final­ly comes face-to-face with Lord Hen­ry Jowls. By Jove, right on time…

Arriv­ing at the Inver­ness estate, Jack Flan­ders encoun­ters strange hap­pen­ings at the old Vic­to­ri­an man­sion. Jack is told that there are only three tow­ers in Inver­ness, even though he is cer­tain he has seen a fourth. An old juke­box, which he can­not locate, plays a haunt­ing 50’s tune just before an acci­dent hap­pens. Jack pur­sues the hid­den juke­box, search­ing through slid­ing pan­els, hol­low walls, and under­ground pas­sage­ways until final­ly he dis­cov­ers the entrance to the Fourth Tow­er that only he can see. In all these years, eight peo­ple have ven­tured into the Tow­er, nev­er to be seen again. Jack is the ninth…

Upon enter­ing the tow­er, Jack dis­cov­ers steps that spi­ral end­less­ly upward. On each lev­el there is a door, and as our hero opens each door he steps into dif­fer­ent dimen­sions: strange worlds of myth and mys­ti­cal fantasy.

Jack dis­cov­ers the source of all the strange crea­tures around the Inver­ness estate… Then he climbs the end­less stairs inside the Fourth Tow­er: search­ing for the mys­te­ri­ous juke­box and loaded down with nick­els to feed it, he enters the third door. What will hap­pen to him there? And then, there’s the drag­on… “By Jove, that is odd…”

Introducing… ZBS: Audio Adventure At Its Finest

Today, Fri­day Sep­tem­ber 17th, sees the start of a new set of radio dra­ma series from our friends at ZBS Foun­da­tion. Begin­ning as a com­mune of radio pro­duc­ers in an island stu­dio farm in upstate New York, the “Zee­bers” start­ed by cre­at­ing radio com­mer­cials and oth­er projects includ­ing albums for DJs to pro­mote new record com­pa­ny releases.

In 1972 they cre­at­ed their first radio dra­ma series, The Fourth Tow­er of Inver­ness, about an intre­pid and unin­ten­tion­al adven­tur­er, Jack Flan­ders, who sets about dis­cov­er­ing the mys­ter­ies inside a hid­den tow­er in an old Vic­to­ri­an man­sion. We’ll be broad­cast­ing The Fourth Tow­er start­ing next week, Fri­day 24th.

This week, we are bring­ing you a spe­cial 80-minute intro­duc­tion to the work of ZBS Foun­da­tion, at 12 noon and 4pm Pacif­ic / 8pm or mid­night in the UK.

The Black Mass 30: Flies by Anthony Vercoe

Join us on Fri­day, Sep­tem­ber 10th, at a lit­tle after 12 noon or 4pm Pacif­ic time / 8pm or mid­night in the UK,  for the final episode in the land­mark radio dra­ma series The Black Mass, cre­at­ed by the late Erik Bauers­feld and his col­leagues at the Paci­fi­ca radio sta­tion KPFA in Berke­ley, Cal­i­for­nia, over fifty years ago. In 30 chill­ing tales of mys­tery, imag­i­na­tion and the human mind, The Black Mass has brought you some of literature’s most haunt­ing sto­ries, by mas­ters of the craft — many of whom are best-known in oth­er fields. Our thanks as always to John Whit­ing, pro­duc­er of many of these record­ings, and of course to Erik Bauers­feld him­self.

This land­mark radio dra­ma series draws to a close this week, with our final tale from The Black Mass. Next week at the same time, join us for an spe­cial intro­duc­tion to the radio dra­ma of ZBS Foun­da­tion, lead­ing off a sea­son of fab­u­lous, fan­tas­tic and mys­ti­cal radio dra­ma series from our friends at ZBS.
