We begin with Jim standing across from Bart with the chess table between them. Jim asks if Bart is ready? Bart says he is. Jim blows air across the tips of his fingers on his right hand and readies himself. He suddenly yells, Go! Sheriff Bart slaps his hands instantly around the King. But, when when opens them to reveal it, it isn't in his hands. Bart is incredulous. Jim then asks, "Are you looking for this?" as he pulls the king out of his holster. Bart exclaims, "Well raise my rent, you are the Kid!" However, Jim corrects him, telling him he "was" the Kid. After asking for details, Jim reveals how it got to the point that every pissant prairie punk wanted to try out The Waco Kid. We close with him saying he must have killed more men than Cecil B. DeMille.

Today’s guest is Chris Frain who is the producer and co-host of “Open the Podcast Doors, HAL” – a movie-by-minute examination and celebration of 2001: A Space Odyssey. He also records and performs electronic music under the name Pattern Language, and composes music for films on occasion.
