INTERVIEWS
Dwight Little: Director of Halloween 4 : The Return Of Michael Myers, Rapid Fire (starring Brandon Lee) and Marked For Death (starring Steven Seagal) brings his evil eye to The Kasey Ferguson Show . Dwight is answering the questions that fans want to know about his Halloween film, from the absence of Jamie Lee Curtis and whether or not the character of Lindsey is the same from the first film to the inside skinny on some of the kills, the challenges behind the scenes and most importantly why the film deprived Kasey (and many other horned up horror lovers) of boobies in the film's infamous funbag fake out.
Dwight will also discuss his latest film Last Rampage : The Escape Of Gary Tison starring (The T-1000!) Robert Patrick, Heather Graham (Boogie Nights) and Free Willy's Jason James Richter, working with Filter's Richard Patrick on the film's musical score and so much more.
Matthew Peak : The artist behind the iconic posters and VHS box covers for A Nightmare on Elm Street 1-5 is painting The Kasey Ferguson Show red! Yes, Matthew Peak is swinging by this year's Halloween Special but instead of talking about the artwork for the Nightmare franchise (don't worry they'll get to that in Part 2 of the interview to air later) , Matthew is revealing and discussing the song he wrote for A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors that was nearly included as the movie's closing credits theme for the very FIRST time!
Yep, you read that right, his song "Freddy's Back" was in serious contention for the film's soundtrack before Dokken's "Dream Warriors" ultimately won out. Kasey will broadcast this historic horror tune for the FIRST TIME EVER and unearth the story surrounding this lost song, not to mention future plans for the tune now that it's been located. Matthew will also discuss if he'll be doing more prints of his much beloved Nightmare art and more.

PLUS : Is Kasey's bloodsucking bud, Count Mcfly giving him the silent treatment for not getting around to taking him costume shopping? Or is it because Kasey didn't get around to baking a pumpkin pie? Turns out Siri's witchy cousin, Miri is stirring the pot (or perhaps cauldron), turning Kasey and Doug Mcfly against one other.
The Shortlist : Kasey wants to hunt down COVID-19 and rip out it's still beating, Halloween hating, black heart but since that may prove difficult for a variety of reasons, like Dexter, Kasey is channeling his violent impulses. How? By compiling a short list of ways he's going to kill COVID of course, including but not limited to : Repeatedly earworming it with the riff from "The Final Countdown", summoning Pumpkinhead, Dragonzord and Chuck Norris, dutch oven, talk it's ears off, face melting kazoo solo, micromanage it until it quits, giving the virus a musical instrument and telling IT to try and make a living.

Interviews
Dean Karr : Dean has directed macabre music videos for Ozzy Osbourne, Marilyn Manson, Danzig, Korn, Godsmack, Deftones and countless others. He even directed Iron Maiden's epic Rock In Rio concert DVD! In addition to directing dark and delicious videos, he's made a name for himself creating the cover art for artists looking for something a cut above, such as Alice Cooper, Slipknot, Pantera, Megadeth and Tool just to name a few. Don't even get started on photography, Dean has shot more shit up than Rambo. Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights, Velvet Revolver, the Download festival, even Playboy, Dean's done it all. So, it's time to return fire and pose a few questions to the soul stealing, camera wielding madman.
Dean will discuss the gory goods from his early days working in a cemetery and sneaking his camera into Black Sabbath shows as a teen to the iconic "Sweet Dreams" video he made for Marilyn Manson, his tribute to Eddie Van Halen, filming Rock In Rio with Iron Maiden, the effects of budgets being slashed on music videos, the influence of horror films and dark literature on his work, sharks and the making of the classic Deftones video for "My Own Summer " (Shove It). He'll also dole out a hilarious Ozzy story and since he's designed some legendary covers such as Manson's Antichrist Superstar and Tool's Undertow, he's also picking some of his favorite album covers.
Bobby Blitz : He's sold over 16 million albums worldwide as the lead vocalist of the seminal metal band, Overkill. Yes, Bobby Blitz is coming to the homicidal home of Halloween! In addition to working on new material with Overkill, Bobby is currently fronting the supergroup and cover band BPMD, which also features members of Metal Allegiance and former members of Dream Theater and Machine Head. Their debut album , American Made is out now and features heavied up versions of songs made popular by American rock bands from the 70's including ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Grand Funk Railroad.
The gruesome twosome will raise their glasses to salute the hardworking road crews of the world and discuss everything from what it would be like if Corey Feldman covered an Overkill song and what Bobby learned from Steven Tyler to BPMD's unique approach to picking cover tunes, getting props from Michael Anthony himself for BMPD'S Van Halen cover, an update on the new Overkill album/touring plans, and a comical road story involving The Nightmare Before Christmas.

PLUS: Since Kasey's roommate and confidante, Doug Mcfly (the most un coordinated ill tempered, mutant bug this side of a 50's monster movie) killed the karaoke machine while trying to flee from a spider, Doug and Cousin Miri Miri must perform their rendition of Bobby "Boris" Pickett's Halloween classic, "Monster Mash" by simply singing along to the track. The results are....eerily fascinating.

Interviews
Kim Mitchell : While Kim is indeed a Juno award winning, multi platinum selling, rock star, that doesn't mean he doesn't have to put up with some crap every now and again. Mostly from his dog, Webster. In between picking up stink pickles, Kim found time to shoot the shit with Kasey for the first time in 20 years.
Kim will discuss everything from his induction into the Canadian Songwriters Hall Of Fame and new single "Wishes" to the song he wrote with The Tragically Hip's Gord Downie, road pranks involving Rush and Alannah Myles, having bullets thrown at him onstage in Detroit, gigging with MC5 while surrounded by the National Guard, why he thought he owed money to Mike Myers (Wayne's World, Austin Powers), opening for Slash, why Ritchie Blackmore hated him and the status of his forthcoming new album "The Big Fantasize" (his first in 13 years).
Brad Roberts : The Crash Test Dummies lead vocalist returns to The Kasey Ferguson Show! Brad will discuss performing on Saturday Night Live and the now infamous monologue by Martin Lawrence that allegedly saw him banned from the show , what Chris Farley was really like and the time he introduced the band onstage (in character as Matt Foley), who on the SNL cast were big fans of the band, his acoustic version of the 80's classic "Bette Davis Eyes" from his album, Crash Test Dude and more.

PLUS: Kasey decides his roommate and confidante, Doug Mcfly needs a talking to about his "toxic masculinity" and threatens to kill him to death with a pink loofah. The self described, "Art Garfunkel of the podcast world" is also calling out several nimrods on their idiotic pandemic behavior. From hapless morons posing as social distancing experts while ignoring the rules themselves and a witless jogger blowing a snot rocket on the sidewalk to unruly basketball headed dogs. That's right, Kasey's calling out everyone and their dog, proving once again that no one is safe from his verbal wrath...including sniff happy doggies.
Kasey's Report Card : In a new segment, Kasey begins reading his actual report cards from elementary school and high school. On this particular episode, he's reading off his teacher's comments about him from the winter term of senior kindergarten (dated March 1989) and making a few comments of his own. What was Kasey like in kindergarten? You'll have to tune in to find out!
Kingston Ribfest And Craft Beer Show : Kasey's posing a few questions to Mike from the Ottawa area brewery, Broadhead Brewing. Along the way, Kasey will suck back a Grindstone Amber Ale and Night Shift Stout, throw shade at morning people and attempt and impromptu game of Trivial Pursuit. The dynamic duo will also discuss their favorite Stones albums, the fundamentals of a good beer and the difficulty of Kasey's chosen profession.

Jeff Russo - Emmy Award winning composer (Star Trek : Discovery, Star Trek : Picard, Fargo, The Umbrella Academy) and guitarist of the Grammy nominated band, Tonic.
Jeff will discuss the fear and responsibility that comes with scoring an iconic franchise like Star Trek and his unique approach to the material, the transition from playing rock guitar to conducting orchestras, how his projects have been affected by the pandemic and how he balances so many of them, using windshield wipers, washing machines, typewriters and crickets as musical instruments, what had been Tonic's plans for the summer and even wiffle ball among other things.

Like it or not, we're all on this ship together and we might as well make the best of it. So, batten down the hatches for a rock n roll booze cruise to the Island of Rock! Join Q108 and The Kasey Ferguson Show as they combine forces on a special expedition to plunder both the buried treasure of songs hidden deep within the catalog of popular bands and sunken treasure from artists that got lost at sea. Special guest, Jeff Russo (Tonic) will walk the plank and cannonballs will fly on this rum soaked, laugh filled, swashbuckling aural adventure!
Joining Kasey and The Maestro on their island adventure is Kasey's roommate , Doug Mcfly (the fattest house fly ever to squeeze into a Hawaiian shirt) and Siri's drunken cousin, Miri. The fearsome foursome journey to various island locales to locate precious artifacts such as The Chalice Of Loud and Poison drummer, Rikki Rockett's Walkman. When The Maestro splits from the group to scour the island for food, Kasey, Doug and Miri presume him dead and place bets on how they believe he met his demise (including but not limited to : terminated by a cyborg from the future, Scanners style head explosion after holding in a sneeze and tried to listen to the KISS album "Music From The Elder"). Of course, one question still remains...just how are they getting off the island?

(What's My Name)" by Doug, Cousin Miri and himself. Kasey's also sounding off on unionized stupidity and nimrods who make work harder than it needs to be, his recent experience with a demonic pot gummy and the aneurysm inducing musical question he once received from a co worker. Miri decides what Kasey smells like and schedules a notification for him to take a bath. A special shout out to a listener from Warsaw, Poland whose incredible Rock Dance Theatre Kasey describes as "Ozzy goes to the ballet".
