The Goods from the Woods - Episode #195 – “The Balloon Boy Incident” with Steve Chiotakis
In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys are joined by L.A. radio legend, Steve Chiotakis, Afternoon News Anchor for KCRW here in Los Angeles! So, we figured that since we have a legitimate newsman in the studio, we might as well talk about the moment in 2009 when the news (specifically 24 hour cable news) "jumped the shark". On October 15, 2009, the nation was captivated by events in the skies above Denver, Colorado where a UFO shaped balloon supposedly carrying a six year old boy named "Falcon" inside of it was floating across the sky and the nation was RIVETED. When the balloon laded, there was no boy inside, and suddenly everything just exploded. The whole story of the Heene Family is one of the craziest things you'll ever hear and you will be surprised (or maybe you won't be) to find out what they're like now. This episode is such a good time. Follow Steve on all forms of social media @RadioChio.
Song of the week is "Downhearted Fools" by Chris Stalcup & The Grange. Follow the show @TheGoodsPod Rivers is @RiversLangley Dr. Pat is @PM_Reilly Mr. Goodnight is @SepulvedaCowboy Pick up a Goods from the Woods t-shirt at: http://prowrestlingtees.com/TheGoodsPod
