Hornet Gadgets and Gizmos!! Episode 6

Post by GMartin58 »

If you haven't caught the latest episode of The Green Hornet Case Files Kory and I have a deep discussion on the Green Hornet's tools of the trade in all his incarnations!

What's your favorite gadget or gizmo of the GH?

Would you have liked to have seen more toys like Batman?

If there is a new GH, what would you like to see make an appearance? Some old? Something new?

I'm really enjoying having your show in my Podcast rotation, so far i'm liking the non-linear approach of topics. (As in, not chronologically discussing the radio/serial/TV show/comics on an episode by episode basis). Twice a month seems to be a very natural/comfortable fit for this show.

As far as gizmos go, as much as I liked the staple Gas Gun and Hornet Sting, without a second thought my favourite gadget on the TV show is The Black Beauty itself. Heck, it's such a great gadget that it is basically another character in the lore.

I genuinely enjoyed the first segment of this epsiode discussing references to the GH in music, but I will say that I think you did yourselves as disservice not using snippets of the tracks to illustrate the examples. I know it's good practice to often lean on the side of caution with regards copyright, but this would have been covered by legally defined "fair use" in an editorial capacity and in this case, the segment suffered.

Been listening to the podcasts and just finished up #6. I know the '66 tv version pretty well so I find the non '66 stuff especially the comics, old and new, interesting, informative, refreshing and mostly new to me. I learn something from these talks and interviews!

My online site page on the '66 gadgets and props.

and at a recent flea market I found this comic. I do have some vintage and newer GH comics but I didn't have this one, so because of your podcasts talking about the newer comics I brought this one home!

If and when you record a show about the 2011 Seth Rogan movie, here is all one needs to know.....yes poor quality but I made this in 2011 when a bootleg version went online! (link expires in 2 days)

You asked in the podcast whether or not the GH gas mask was used. It was, only once.
