Episode 169: Remembering Bob Burns

In this episode, we remember the wonderful Bob Burns, who passed on December 12, 2025 at the age of 90. Bob was a film historian and archivist, well-known for his amazing collection of science fiction film props which were kept in what was affectionately known as "Bob's Basement." Bob was gracious in allowing people to not only tour this collection but to handle these prized items. He and his wife Kathy, who passed in 2021, were also well-known for the Halloween shows that they would orchestrate at their home, with the help of many industry professionals. These spook shows were complete theatrical experiences. The Planet 8 crew talks about Bob, and we also have some  testimonials from friends of the show.

We'd love to hear any of your thoughts or memories of Bob Burns. Please share them with us at any of the places where we can be reached.
