The "Radio K.A.L" Show
Each month Steve Younis and Neal Bailey discuss the latest events surrounding the Man of Steel. Whether it be in the comics, TV shows, movies, cartoons, whatever... if it's a hot topic in the Superman world, they'll talk about it. If there's something you feel they need to focus on, let them know and they'll discuss it "on the air".
But that's not all! The Radio K.A.L show also features a monthly "Super Secret Sound-Byte" competition. Each month we play a small sound-byte from an episode of Smallville, and it's your job to try and work out exactly which episode it's from. Once you've heard the sound-byte simply use the "Super Secret Sound-Byte" entry form to submit your answer.
The "Big Question" is a topical question asked during Radio KAL, and you're invited to have your say and submit your answer using the Big Q entry form.

"Superman: The Last Son of Krypton" Audio Drama
Superman fan Jeffrey Bridges is the man behind an exciting new fan-made Superman radio drama. I'll let Jeffrey introduce himself and the "Superman: The Last Son of Krypton" radio drama in his own words...
"I've been a Superman fan for as long as I can remember. My father took me to see Superman II in the theater when I was just four years old, and it's one of my happiest memories. It was the first movie that I ever saw.
I've been collecting the comics since the "Death of Superman" storyline, which was when I really started getting into comic books. Before that, Christopher Reeve was the only Superman I knew (although that's a pretty good base to start from). I now eagerly await the new movie, watch Smallville and the WB cartoons, and collect all of the comic books. It's a great time to be a Superman fan.
I wanted to add to all of that, if possible, but I didn't know what I could do. Recently, along with a few close friends and family members, I formed Pendant Productions. Pendant is an audio production group dedicated to making audio dramas like the old radio serials of the '30s and '40s. Our first project was based around our mutual love of Star Trek.
Not long after, I was able to listen to some of the old Superman radio serials from the 1940s and they were a lot of fun. And then it hit me... we could do Superman audio stories too!
And so before you sits the fruit of our labor. We make no money whatsoever off of this, and do it purely for fun and love of the characters. Each audio (usually averaging 12-15 minutes in length) takes over 30 hours of work to produce, from the writing of the script to all the actors recording their lines and then the entire sound mixing process.
"Superman: The Last Son of Krypton" is based on the current comic book continuity, and we'll be releasing one new issue every month right here on SupermanHomepage.com.
In addition to "Superman: The Last Son of Krypton", we're producing audio dramas for Batman, Wonder Woman, Star Trek, James Bond, Indiana Jones, and others. If you would like to learn more about Pendant Productions, please visit our website.
We're always accepting new members, so if you'd like to join us you're more than welcome. All you need is a computer and a microphone. :) So stop on by the forums and say hi, and let us know what you think of the audio stories.
We hope that you enjoy "Superman: The Last Son of Krypton", and that you find it a worthy addition to the Superman mythos.
Thanks for listening!"
Thanks Jeffrey!
