WFMU: Dimestore Radio Theater with Austin Rich: Playlist from September 25, 2023

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 8:01pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	🎸 ♥ 9:00pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ahoy!
	🎸 ♥ 9:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:00 Thanks for joining this week!
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:01 Always a pleasure
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: "Your glass..." I see!
	9:08pm asheville jon: I'm here just lurking again :)
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ asheville jon @9:08 We love our lurkers! That's for poppin' in.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: "It's only the second act!" The show must go on!
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: Who had 12 1/2 minutes for when Rocky gets knocked out?
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: "The Little Bar Across The Street." Which apparently doesn't have a name?
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: He will probably deny it
	♥ 9:17pm WR: Lurkin' two.
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @9:17 Yay! I do enjoy knowing there's folks out there.
	🎸 ♥ 9:20pm Austin Rich: I'll mention now: I'm doing four hours tonight! While Mike Rogers is out, I'm covering "Sounds From Space." So I found a Sci-Fi dramatic comedy that will be PERFECT for fans of this show, and fans of his! So it's a night of radio dramas on Sheena's!
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Dozing early
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "The Syncopated Clock" by "Leroy Anderson" While written and popularized by Leroy Anderson, "The Syncopated Clock" was a staple of late night CBS television in the 50s, and was the theme music for their "Late Show," where they played old movies from the "Shock Theater" package.
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:31 Sleep well!
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @9:31 The CBS TV version was performed by Percy Faith.
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: While they don't mention it every episode, they try to reinforce the way that Sailor is dressed, when they can. In 1951, women didn't wear jeans very often (except for work), so Sailor's insistence that she dress in men's clothes is supposed to make her stand out, now. However, the impact it would have in the 50's is lost on modern audiences; women wear pants and jeans all the time, and are less gendered than they used to be.
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Austin Rich: I do apologize! Seems like we had a moment of stream interruption. Hopefully that wasn't too distracting to anyone out there.
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: That usually doesn't happen, but I can't alway control our ISP. I hope everyone could still piece the story together?
	🎸 ♥ 9:56pm Austin Rich: I don't believe that is actually true. (That dead men don't leave prints.) But... sounds good for a goofy radio show?
	10:01pm Mr Fab: Hey Austin! I can tell you one thing: dead men don’t wear plaid.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:01 Time to re-watch that movie! It's been too long since I've seen it.
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "14 September 1946" by "Adventures In Science" My joke around the Lava Lamp Lounge: it's the pre-cursor to Science Friday!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: He seems to be talking about Automats. en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: He seems to be a little bitter about being pre-empted by Football, and I do love that he's encouraging correspondence from listeners during the "off" season for his show.
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "14 September 1946" by "Adventures In Science" It is interesting, in that this show seemed to be genuinely trying to approach science as a new subject, with reporting, and headlines, etc. I suspect that, just like now, Science News was a hard sell for audiences.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: news subject, pardon...
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Austin Rich: "That's one of the drugs grown by molds." I need to cut that sample out...
	10:17pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:12 Not sure what that artwork has to do with real science. Cool pic, tho.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:17 It was the first thing that came up when I searched, "Adventures In Science," and since there's very little record of this radio show anywhere online, this image seemed as good as anything official.
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: I like this call for the world to take science seriously, so our future won't be bleak... Whoops...
	10:21pm Mr Fab: “I suspect that, just like now, Science News was a hard sell for audiences.” Sad, but true.
	🎸 ♥ 10:22pm Heather Z: Oh, he is salty about the football season! Poor buddy. Been tuned in and puttering here! I'll miss Mike Rogers and AI Robot but I'm looking forward to you covering Sounds From Space!
	🎸 ♥ 10:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:21 I still tune in for Science Friday on NPR when I can... but I do feel like there's less "news" in any given show than I wish there was.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:22 Yeah, you can really tell the host of Adventures In Science was not into the impending football season. I used to work at a radio station that occasionally had shows pre-empted for football games, and I REALLY felt his pain.
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: There was cool science news today: that asteroid sample that landed in Utah. That was interesting!
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 That was so cool! I want to put some in water and drink it up. Superpowers at last!
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:26 Yeah, I was hoping the scientists who get to experiment on the samples all get exposed to comic rays, or something.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:27 Maybe I'll try to infiltrate and get a whiff. I really don't see what it would hurt at this point.
	🎸 ♥ 10:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Girl Bites Dog"" by "Jane Endicott, Reporter" While it is nice to find a show with a female lead, it is frustrating that, like now, her boss immediately questions her qualifications. Sigh.
	🎸 ♥ 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:28 There's far too few scientists accidentally creating super-heros through some kind of advanced research. The world needs to get on it... clearly there aren't gonna be rich billionaire superheroes, so radiation might be our only option.
	🎸 ♥ 10:29pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:28 It would be unrealistic otherwise, though. Sigh.
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:29 And we already ate up all the mummies so we're close to out of options.
	🎸 ♥ 10:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:29 But they just hired her! She hadn't even had a chance to try to deliver a story! It was just too... real?
	🎸 ♥ 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:30 Did they think they would get powers from that? I thought it was just to be rich and cruel?
	🎸 ♥ 10:32pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Mummies were supposed to be a cure for various diseases. But I think one did have to be rich to get a nibble.
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:32 Has there been some meme going around about eating Mummies? Seems like a lot of people have been randomly talking about that the last few weeks. Marla brought it up a while ago, too.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:34 I did see a meme recently! It's been a thing with me for ages. I am surprised this is the first you've heard me talk about medical cannibalism! Eating mummies is fascinating to me and I talk about it..... too much.
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Requiem"" by "X-Minus One" This was, theoretically, the "Halloween" broadcast for X-Minus one in 1955. It's not really a Halloween story, but it has it's own kind of horror to it.
	🎸 ♥ 10:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Requiem"" by "X-Minus One" We've heard this story on the show before; Dimension X did a version of it. However, THIS version has better audio quality than the one we heard before, and is slightly shorter. As a result, some scenes are slightly different, too... not much, but a little, mostly just to accomodate the shorter length.
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm Austin Rich: As someone not on social media right now, any time I have three points of data, where three different people are all mentioning the same obscure thing within a week of each other, I can tell a recent meme has passed through the culture.
	10:41pm Mr Fab: Eating mummies? What the hell are you people talking about?!
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:39 I'm big into cat memes and cheese memes. And depression memes so we can laugh about how sad we are. Lmk if you want me to send em your way. Hi Mr Fab! Sorry I'm always talking about the mummies!
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:41 Here's a good Smithsonian article about it: www.smithsonianmag.com...
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:41 Short version: when all the pyramids were being excavated, rich people thought eating mummies was a status symbol. (And, could cure disease, apparantly?)
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:43 Lots of snake oil type stuff. Have a mummy! Cure your scabies!
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Requiem"" by "X-Minus One" So ironic... he made trips to the moon possible... and he can't take a trip himself!
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: This one's got a sad ending, so strap in for that. And we're getting close to the end of Dimenstore! Stay tuned for a special presentation, in the spot where you would hear, "Sounds From Space." Stay tuned!
	🎸 ♥ 10:54pm Heather Z: I'm bracing for tears. And will be tuned in for Sounds From Space! Thanks for a great show as always!
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Austin Rich: What would you do just to get a single taste of walking on the moon?
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:56 Yeahhhh
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Austin Rich: Thanks again everyone! See ya'll next time!
	♥ 11:00pm WR: Thanks, will continue listening for a while.
