WFMU: Dimestore Radio Theater with Austin Rich: Playlist from November 20, 2023

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 7:26pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	🎸 ♥ 9:00pm Imaginos: Ahoy!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:00 Nice to see you in the chat, Imaginos! Sit down! Have some turkey and potatoes!
	9:02pm Charles: I want to eat the little potatoes.
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:02 Charles! I hope you brought those roasted vegetables I asked for!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Cause For Thanksgiving"" by "Let George Do It" I don't believe we've played any, "Let George Do It," on Dimestore before. It's another detective show, and not too bad, either. But I only know a few shows, and I've never done a wide overview. I may run it on Dimestore someday, but for now: here's a Holiday entry!
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm yerfriendpaul: Hey Austin, everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:04 yerfriendpaul! Sit down, there's plenty of stuffing!
	9:05pm Mr Fab: Hi Austin. Brass knuckles! Does anyone still use them?
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @9:05 Stuffing is my weakness! I can’t get enough of it
	🎸 ♥ 9:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:05 Mr. Fab! I don't have any brass knuckles, but hopefully the Cranberry Sauce will be a good replacement?
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:05 My wife wanted to make sure I knew that we were having stuffing, even if I thought we didn't really need it.
	9:06pm asheville jon: lurking Hello everyone
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @9:06 She’s a very intelligent person!
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ asheville jon @9:06 Asheville Jon! I don't mind if you lurk. I'll just fix you a "to-go" plate and you can dig-in when you're ready.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: "Jerknose." Is this one of the earliest instances of "Jerknose" in radio?
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm yerfriendpaul: I love old time radio kids
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Barno in Akron: O'Doyle RULES!!!
	9:10pm laurapanic: I like this kid's MOXY
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:09 Often played by women, or people much older!
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ laurapanic @9:10 Ha ha!
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Barno in Akron @9:09 Barno! Have a seat, there's plenty of gravy!
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @9:10 Laurapanic! Glad you could stop by. Hopefully you're ready for a radio Thanksgiving!
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Barno in Akron: I tried to yell "Shut Up" out my porthole - and it hurt real bad!
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Imaginos: The Necronomicon?
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:15 They're surprisingly popular this time of year. Though I don't recommend it. When you read it, deadites keep popping up.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Cause For Thanksgiving"" by "Let George Do It" Bob Bailey - who played George Valentine in this show - also played the lead in, "Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar," for a number of years. Johnny Dollar was played by a TON of different people during it's run, and many people consider the date the last episode of Johnny Dollar aired to be the official END of the Golden Age of Radio. (Sometime in September, 1962.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:22pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:15 Imagine if they made it an audio book
	🎸 ♥ 9:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:22 There have been a number of actual books published that have that title, and I always think: is that a good idea?
	9:23pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @9:11 I'm ready to observe the celebration of your local holiday!
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @9:23 These days, my wife and I have a party from Thursday to Sunday, and eat all our favorite foods. I asked for salmon!
	9:27pm laurapanic: ooh, French voice actors (jokes)
	9:27pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @9:24 does it start this week? Enjoy!
	🎸 ♥ 9:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @9:27 Yep. Short work week, too!
	🎸 ♥ 9:28pm Imaginos: Good show so far
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Dimestore Radiators!
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:30 Webhamster Henry! I baked fresh biscuits, just for you!
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Webhamster Henry: What about the nut cups?
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm yerfriendpaul: Fantastic Holiday Sheena Bedtime Story!
	🎸 ♥ 9:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:31 They are nut-free, in case anyone has an allergy.
	🎸 ♥ 9:35pm Imaginos: Excellent
	🎸 ♥ 9:36pm Barno in Akron: Oh, you, Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Austin Rich @9:32 So: empty pleated paper cups with nothing in them. O. K.
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm univac: Hi all! Great show Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm univac: Yum!
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm Imaginos: 38 and counting until a day of awesomeness
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm Heather Z: I brought my moonshine canteens from the campfire days. Give a holler if you'd like a swig or two!
	🎸 ♥ 9:43pm Webhamster Henry: I recently listened to the Screen Director's Playhouse version of Lifeboat, which was fine! Movies on the radio are good!
	🎸 ♥ 9:46pm Webhamster Henry: I like these radio adaptations with (close to) original casts and directors!
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Thanksgiving"" by "The Answer Man" States Rights! Even then!
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Heather Z: Thanksgiving non celebrator here! But my friends and I do like food! Parties vary between getting some pizzas, catering by Trader Joe's, and people going all out with homemade breads, dips, desserts, the works! There's also always a veggie tray. That's kind of obligatory in our group.
	🎸 ♥ 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:49 We usually don't do "traditional" thanksgiving foods. We usually just eat whatever sounds good. But we do it on Thanksgiving Day... because we have the day off.
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:51 You mentioned salmon and the one TG dinner I loved was where it was salmon and rice and beans!! Tres leches cake for dessert, even. So good.
	🎸 ♥ 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Thanksgiving"" by "The Answer Man" War Bonds... because... this was Thanksgiving DURING WWII. A lot of families were not together this year, 1944.
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:53 Hell yeah. That sounds great!
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Webhamster Henry: There's also Canadian Thanksgiving, the 2nd Monday in October.
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:54 Oh! I don't know much about that. I should read about that.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Imaginos: Two musicians
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:54 Even the TG Curmudgeon had two slices of the cake. It was so delicious!
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: I could tell it was the holidays today at work. We had more orders this morning than we have had any monday this entire year. 32 orders. It took me hours to pull and package all those books. It was wild.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm yerfriendpaul: This guy knows everything!
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:57 As I understand it: he would go to the library and do the research before each show.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @9:58 I love it.
	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:58 It was a very interactive show. All the questions were written in by listeners. It was like when the chat asks questions of the DJs... but it just took longer.
	🎸 ♥ 10:00pm yerfriendpaul: I can picture the excitement of the listeners who had their questions read and answered
	🎸 ♥ 10:01pm Austin Rich: Without charge! He would write to you, even if it didn't get on the air! So cool.
	🎸 ♥ 10:01pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:01 That is pretty impressive
	🎸 ♥ 10:01pm Imaginos: Dozing off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:01 Sleep well! We should have a call soon, about your script!
	🎸 ♥ 10:02pm Webhamster Henry: Mr. Answer Man was like listening to Chat GPT blather on and on.
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @10:02 Agreed. I would love to get the second part done
	🎸 ♥ 10:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:02 It is like having access to a "fact" machine. Now you just post to the webs and get roasted.
	🎸 ♥ 10:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Thanksgiving Program w/ The Hardy Family Movie C... Baby Snooks was from a comedy show, "The Baby Snooks Show." This sketch is sort of a run-down of the kind of comedy that show featured. en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm Austin Rich: Baby Snooks was played by a woman who was 40 years older than the "character" they were playing. They played this character until 1950, when Fanny Brice - the actor - was very old.
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm yerfriendpaul: We wife has a higher voice and I always encourage her to do voice over acting, but she’s not interested in show biz
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:12 People who can play "different ages" are VERY useful in voice work.
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm Austin Rich: Frank Morgan is probably best known for playing a number of characters in "The Wizard of Oz." But he was a comedian for a number of years, who had a gimmick sort of like this routine, here. I ADORE Frank Morgan, and I think his comedy is PERFECT. If I could do comedy, I would love to do something like what he does. (It's like a proto-Lord Buckley, sort of.)
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm yerfriendpaul: His voice is so familiar. Is this the actor who played the Wizard from Wizard of Oz?
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm yerfriendpaul: Oh wow! Fantastic!
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:17 Yep! And a number of other characters in that movie, too.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:18 That’s right. He’s the guy at the gate who lets them in
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:18 And the guy Dorthy meets at the beginning of the movie. And one other role, I can't think of off hand.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: My dad fancied himself an amateur "gold miner." He drug me to all sorts of places, to set up his "sluice boxes," while he was panning somewhere else on the river. He has a tiny jar he put his "flecks" in. He never found more than little flecks, but he was always very proud of them.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:21 That’s pretty cool!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: Mickey Rooney! <swoon>
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: I'll mention it now, since there are no more Voice Overs this hour: I'm covering for Mike Rogers ater this! Two more hours or radio! This time, Sci-Fi Detective Stories! Stay Tuned!
	🎸 ♥ 10:31pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 I'll stay tuned in! Always love what Mike and AI Robot bring but totally looking forward to Sci fi detectives, too!
	🎸 ♥ 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:31 Sci-Fi Lady Detectives! (Well, just the one.)
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Ooo the continuing adventures of someone whose name is on the tip of my brain but won't go farther than that?!
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:34 Ruby Tuesday, Galactic Gumshoe!
	🎸 ♥ 10:37pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:35 There we go!! Any Android Sisters appearances? (Yes, I'm swooning. Who wouldn't?)
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:37 At least two appearances that I recall... maybe more?
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Austin! Enjoyed the show. Turning in now for the night. Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:38 Ahhh 🥰
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:39 Thanks yerfriendpaul! Sleep well.
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Austin Rich: Mickey Rooney was probably the most famous cast member of "The Hardy Family." I only ever knew him as an old man when I was growing up. But he was a "child actor" star back in his era. en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Barno in Akron: Good night, yerfriendpaul!
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Austin Rich: Isn't it creepy when husbands call their wives "mother"? It's really weird if you ask me.
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 It is, if you ask me, too. Maybe it's regional? But not in this region. It's weird to hear here.
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 It's VERY common, everywhere. (And was more common, a couple generations ago.) There were a number of recent politicians who were well known for referring to their partners as "mother."
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Austin Rich: Whoops! Looks like we glitched for a second. Hopefully that wasn't too obtrusive.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 I remember one politician in particular, that's for sure! The saying grace bit brought to mind how my dad starts speaking Olde Englysh when saying grace. Lots of "thee" "thou" and "thy." We did grow up with stilted and formal language but not, like, Shakespeare stylee.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: I noticed some of my family slipping into the "mother" / "father" stuff, to reinforce it with their kids. Then shifting it to "grandmother" / "grandfather," to reinforce it with the grandkids. I find it all very creepy.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: Thanks for listening everyone! See you next week!
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm univac: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 Ronnie Reagan referred to Nancy as Mother.
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Heather Z: Thanks for a great show, as always! Going to pour another tin cup of moonshine and buckle in for Sounds From Space! Night all and happy TG to those who celebrate!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Barno in Akron: Thanks Austin, Goodnight
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm univac: Thx, Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm univac: ↳ Heather Z @10:59 #clink#
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Heather Z: ↳ univac @10:59 Clink! 🍻

He has a tiny jar he put his "flecks" in. He never found more than little flecks, but he was always very proud of them.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:21 That’s pretty cool!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: Mickey Rooney! <swoon>
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: I'll mention it now, since there are no more Voice Overs this hour: I'm covering for Mike Rogers ater this! Two more hours or radio! This time, Sci-Fi Detective Stories! Stay Tuned!
	🎸 ♥ 10:31pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 I'll stay tuned in! Always love what Mike and AI Robot bring but totally looking forward to Sci fi detectives, too!
	🎸 ♥ 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:31 Sci-Fi Lady Detectives! (Well, just the one.)
	🎸 ♥ 10:34pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 Ooo the continuing adventures of someone whose name is on the tip of my brain but won't go farther than that?!
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:34 Ruby Tuesday, Galactic Gumshoe!
	🎸 ♥ 10:37pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:35 There we go!! Any Android Sisters appearances? (Yes, I'm swooning. Who wouldn't?)
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:37 At least two appearances that I recall... maybe more?
	🎸 ♥ 10:39pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Austin! Enjoyed the show. Turning in now for the night. Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:38 Ahhh 🥰
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:39 Thanks yerfriendpaul! Sleep well.
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Austin Rich: Mickey Rooney was probably the most famous cast member of "The Hardy Family." I only ever knew him as an old man when I was growing up. But he was a "child actor" star back in his era. en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Barno in Akron: Good night, yerfriendpaul!
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Austin Rich: Isn't it creepy when husbands call their wives "mother"? It's really weird if you ask me.
	🎸 ♥ 10:51pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 It is, if you ask me, too. Maybe it's regional? But not in this region. It's weird to hear here.
	🎸 ♥ 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 It's VERY common, everywhere. (And was more common, a couple generations ago.) There were a number of recent politicians who were well known for referring to their partners as "mother."
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Austin Rich: Whoops! Looks like we glitched for a second. Hopefully that wasn't too obtrusive.
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 I remember one politician in particular, that's for sure! The saying grace bit brought to mind how my dad starts speaking Olde Englysh when saying grace. Lots of "thee" "thou" and "thy." We did grow up with stilted and formal language but not, like, Shakespeare stylee.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: I noticed some of my family slipping into the "mother" / "father" stuff, to reinforce it with their kids. Then shifting it to "grandmother" / "grandfather," to reinforce it with the grandkids. I find it all very creepy.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: Thanks for listening everyone! See you next week!
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm univac: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 Ronnie Reagan referred to Nancy as Mother.
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Heather Z: Thanks for a great show, as always! Going to pour another tin cup of moonshine and buckle in for Sounds From Space! Night all and happy TG to those who celebrate!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Barno in Akron: Thanks Austin, Goodnight

	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm univac: ↳ Heather Z @10:59 #clink#
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Heather Z: ↳ univac @10:59 Clink! 🍻
