I have started a new podcast called The Hardy Boys Unofficial Fan Podcast.

SkyWarp was gracious enough to be the first guest on the podcast, and we discussed the 2020 Hardy Boys Hulu series.

If anyone has any other ideas for an episode, please let me know. When the originals hit public domain in 2022, I plan on doing some episodes comparing the originals and the rewrites.

I have submitted the podcast to Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Podcasts in Amazon Music, Pandora, Tune-in, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, and Listen Notes. You can listen to the podcast in any of those apps once its approved by that app. If you're impatient, its immediately available through PodBean - either in the app or on the website at https://hbunofficial.podbean.com/.

Please give me any feedback you have.

edit: Update - it is now available through Amazon Podcasts in the Amazon Music app

Episode 1 is available here: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/ffb5f745-4f2a-4ed7-9315-2e320118ee79/The-Hardy-Boys-Unofficial-Fan-Podcast and here https://hbunofficial.podbean.com/

Cool! I hope it goes well. Reviews of the various Hardy Boys book series and media adaptations would be interesting. :) 8)

New episode is up - it's a short one that serves as an introduction to my analysis of the rewrites.

Exciting news - two of the ghost.writers have agreed to do interviews with me for the podcast.

So far its Gary Cohn, author of 47) Flight Into Danger, 92) Sabotage At Sea, and 104) Wild Wheels, and Bruce Whitehill, author of 17) The Number File.

Does anyone have some suggestions for questions?

Also, can anyone locate contact information for Larry Mike Garmon, Ron Goulart, Bill McKay, or Rick Oliver?

Can you ask Gary Cohn what Nancy Drew books he wrote? His Wikipedia article says he wrote two, but there's no info on what ones.

How often did Casefiles require rewrites? What is meant by that term here? Minor edits or total rewrites of the book?
