Phoole and the Gang

ATTENTION ADVENTURERS! Presenting more than seven hours of music and amusing announcements from Madame Phoole's Panharmonium live at the 2025 Gardens and Gears Steampunk Faire in Milwaukee's beautiful Mitchell Park Domes Horticultural Conservatory! Recorded live on Saturday, 29 March 2025. The 2025 theme was "The Golden Age of Steam," so tunes about trains are sprinkled liberally throughout. Gentlemen of the Wisconsin Garden Railway Society specially requested every version of 'Atcheson, Topeka and the Santa Fe', so expect a lot of those, plus multiple versions of 'Chattanooga Choo-Choo.' The event took place in a giant glass dome, which was connected to two other giant glass domes, each of which contained immersive botanical gardens. The Show Dome, in which Mme. Phoole performed, also housed an exhibit of model trains, the tracks for which wended their way in and out amongst the foliage. The cavernous, echoing venue suggests to Madame Phoole a multi-modal station for every kind of steam travel, so the goofy, pseudo-British-dialect announcements interspersed amongst the tunes are themed to H.G. Wells-esque kinds of travel and adventure. Because the States are experiencing a very 1933-in-Germany time of late, many 1930s tunes performed by Max Raabe & Palast Orchester are played, along with charming chops into Chap-Hop.

George Lowe was the voice of Space Ghost in the Cartoon Network mini-talk-show SPACE GHOST: COAST TO COAST, and he was funny as fuck, and a brilliant comedian and a really good guy, but he has died, and I hate it.

This is Phoole and the Gang Show Number 505 - and the U-505 is a German submarine from World War II that the US captured, and now it’s in Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry. It’s neat! It’s a relic of when the US used to at least pretend to reject fascism, on the most superficial of levels! Phoole and Tiffany have toured the U-505 several times, and so have several other Phooligans! SUBMARINE SHOW! Two hours of underwater-themed tunes.
