Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 8:32pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	9:01pm Charles: New show! Exciting!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: With celebrity starts! Nice to see you in the chat, Charles!
	♥ 9:02pm Scott67: G'day Austin & Enthralled! 🌏☀️📻🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Austin Rich: stars, pardon! I barely got home in time to broadcast! The exciting life of a DJ!
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Austin Rich: Scott67! The pillar of Sheena's support!
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: Kicking off our story with a kidnapping is sort of a different way of starting Box 13, but I think this is our second story that was set on a boat? Maybe they're running out of settings...
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: "My arm sir, it breaks easily!"
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: We have enough Box 13 and Dimension X to run until March. (We'll be taking December off for some Holiday programming, of course.) I know I've mentioned that I'll follow up Dimension X with a show called X-Minus One, a program made with the same creative team and production crew, just under a different name.
	♥ 9:07pm MHLee: hmmm where do these tickets go
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: I haven't entirely decided what to follow up Box 13 with. I have a few ideas, of adventure / noir type shows. I'm leaning toward "Candy Matson," a detective show that only has a handful of episodes, but offers the rare Female Led Detective show, which I'm a big fan of.
	♥ 9:10pm Scott67: @9:06, So does my wind!💨
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: I suspect that both Scott67 and I are fans of a certain Spinal Tap album, "Break Like The Wind"?
	♥ 9:12pm Scott67: A work of some substance Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: This is another recordings where you can, very faintly, hear another recording behind the one that is prominent. I know I've talked about this before, but a lot of Old Time Radio shows exist in that form.
	🎸 ♥ 9:15pm Austin Rich: Half-way through the show we now have the premise of the plot: a well-worn "locked room" style mystery, where someone has gathered together a group of suspects, and one of them is the murderer. This is certainly new ground for Box 13, but in 2022, seems like a really obvious and over-used plot. I wonder how listeners felt about it in 1949? It was probably still not "new" in those days, but I'm sure it wasn't as over-used as it is these days.
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: I realize that this boat is heading toward Havana. While Americans couldn't go to Havana for a long time, were were only blocked from going in 1962. In 1949, you could easily go to Havana, any time you liked.
	♥ 9:18pm MHLee: the mob loved it
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: In the modern age, you can go to Cuba, though I'm not sure if you can take direct flights or boats there. But you aren't blocked from going, like you once were.
	🎸 ♥ 9:20pm Austin Rich: Interestingly, "Bold Venture" is set in Havana, Cuba, in a hotel called, "Shannon's Place." It's almost like Box 13 is sort of "handing off" to our new show, by way of introduction.
	9:21pm Charles: Let me get my murderer accent.
	🎸 ♥ 9:25pm Austin Rich: "Thing's were moving fast." Code for: there's only six minutes left in the show!
	🎸 ♥ 9:29pm Austin Rich: "So are you." Suzy is getting very crushed out on Dan.
	🎸 ♥ 9:30pm Austin Rich: Get your popcorn! It's Bogey and Bacall on Dimestore Radio Theater! Next!
	9:30pm Charles: :)
	♥ 9:32pm WR: There are direct flights to Cuba, though probably not many. Obama made some openings that made it reasonably possible to go. Trump made it harder to go and Biden has yet to undo what he did. I went twice, on tours focused on music and culture. Absolutely loved it.
	♥ 9:32pm MHLee: my school had a trip there about a month before obama visited... they loved it as well
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm Austin Rich: I knew it wasn't hard these days, but I didn't realize you could take a direct flight! That's cool.
	9:33pm Charles: Adventure! Intrigue! Mystery! Romance !!
	♥ 9:35pm MHLee: "Travel to Cuba for tourist activities remains prohibited by statute. However, the Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has issued general licenses for 12 categories of travel. Individuals who meet the regulatory conditions of the general license they seek to travel under do not need to apply for an additional license from OFAC to travel to Cuba. The 12 categories of authorized travel to Cuba are: family visits; official business of the U.S. government, foreign governments, and certain intergovernmental organizations; journalistic activity; professional research and professional meetings; educational activities; religious activities; public performances, clinics, workshops, athletic and other competitions, and exhibitions; support for the Cuban people; humanitarian projects; activities of private foundations or research or educational institutes; exportation, importation, or transmission of information or informational materials; and certain authorized export transactions."
	🎸 ♥ 9:35pm Austin Rich: "Bold Venture" is produced by Santana Productions. "Santana" was the name of the boat that Bogart owned, and enjoyed sailing on with Bacall. So the premise of them on a boat... made by the production company with the name of their boat... seems like Bogart was sort of single minded in this project.
	🎸 ♥ 9:36pm Austin Rich: Thanks for the tip, MHLee. That's pretty cool. I should try to go, someday.
	♥ 9:36pm MHLee: I like how vague "support for the cuban people" is
	♥ 9:38pm WR: I'm not up to date. The combination of Covid wrecking their nascent tourist industry and politics may have cut back the flights. The first time I went had to go to Florida first. The second time I flew direct from NYC.
	♥ 9:38pm MHLee: This is a Trinidadian song
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: Music provided by King Moses! (Jester Hairston.) King Moses is a regular in the show, and he breaks into song any chance he gets.
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 9:40pm Austin Rich: Jester Hairston was in a RIDICULOUS number of movies, and was a very accomplished musician. I can only imagine that, when they were looking to cast Bold Venture, it wasn't hard to cast Jester.
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm Austin Rich: I love how everyone knows all about Cuba! I should plan a trip, apparently.
	♥ 9:44pm Scott67: I'll touch it!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: The relationship between Slate and Sailor is sort of "vague," in that Slate sort of acts like he's not attached to Sailor... except when he feels like being intimate. And this speech about how Slate is taking care of Sailor as a favor to a friend sort of further muddles things. The way they flirt with each other further muddles things again... Maybe it'll become more clear as the show goes on?
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: In my mind, you do EVERYTHING Lauren Bacall says. ALWAYS.
	♥ 9:46pm Scott67: I would've!!
	♥ 9:49pm WR: Thank you for the Hairston / King Moses link.
	🎸 ♥ 9:49pm Austin Rich: Bogart was 25 years older than Bacall, and Bogart seemed to enjoy younger women in general. I have to wonder that, some of this stuff about not being comfortable with "Sailor" and wanting her to leave, and the including the flirting with other women in the show, must have... meant something.
	🎸 ♥ 9:50pm Austin Rich: Any time, WR! I love links to the musical accompaniment.
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: There are a lot of accents in "Bold Venture," and aside from Jester, who is actually African American, I'm pretty sure all the other accents are by white actors. Just like in "The Voyage of The Scarlet Queen," it wasn't really cool then that they didn't try to cast authentic actors, and there are other problematic issues with these kinds of impersonations. However, in 1951, to feature Cuban voices on American radio - even impersonations - is sort of impressive. I'm sure this program went a long way to making Americans aware of life in Cuba at all.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: "Poets! Revolutionaries! Adventurers!"
	10:00pm Mr Fab: Damn, just tuned to find out I missed the actual Bogie and Bacall?! Didn’t know they made radio, how cool.
	10:01pm Mr Fab: Music by David Rose, “The Stripper” guy. Well, this show is a class act all around.
	♥ 10:02pm Scott67: I'm Star Struck too Fab!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	10:08pm Charles: Solving mysteries on a yatch
	10:09pm Charles: Well one of us is a murderer. Gotta be careful!
	♥ 10:11pm WR: Keep playing Harry while Austin gets the next segment cued.
	10:11pm Heather: Haa! I got confused and was, like, we've met in person! And then I realized no. No we haven't. 😂 Hi everyone! Great show! Back to lurking!
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Austin Rich: Heather and I have met in Zoom! That's almost like in person.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: Harry James always works, WR, so that would have made a good show, too. But I went to all the trouble of cutting out this documentary... might as well play it for you.
	10:13pm Heather: Cheaper than plane tickets, too!
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: I do sort of love how "not attractive" Bogart was. And yet... women loved him.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Austin Rich: One of the male voices in this documentary is Bogart's son, and you get the impression that he really thought his dad was great... even all his flaws.
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm Austin Rich: He did sort of make it okay to hide how you really are feeling, something that might not have been great for culture, by made for some compelling film.
	10:16pm Arvo: Good hello! Just tuning in now. Sorry. Tune in, tune out, turn on, I get confused.
	🎸 ♥ 10:17pm Austin Rich: Arvo! Wonderful to see you in the chat.
	🎸 ♥ 10:18pm Austin Rich: I always think about the fact that he was born in 1899 as being an important part of his story. He was born in another century, out of step and out of time.
	♥ 10:18pm MHLee: The Gerber baby died last year
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Austin Rich: I thought I heard something about that, MHLee.
	♥ 10:19pm MHLee: this year actaully
	♥ 10:20pm MHLee: i saw photos of her at 90 i believe
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: In the years between the wars, Americans learned to drink in a way that I think we are still trying to catch up with. It was normalized in a way that I don't think modern folks can really imagine.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: Bogart made a vampire movie in 1939, one that didn't get great reviews, but I'm sort of a sucker for.
	10:24pm Cathy: I was born in 1940 and I drink a jug o' Carlo Rossi a day, while I clean the whole house and wash the clothes on a washboard, see.
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: Part of the Rossi Posse! Well done.
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Austin Rich: This episode will go long, many apologies. Hopefully ya'll don't mind...
	10:26pm Mr Fab: What was Bogie’s vampire movie?
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Austin Rich: The Return of Doctor X!
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 10:32pm MHLee: it's a shame these stories aren't more lovecraftian
	🎸 ♥ 10:33pm Austin Rich: The Chandu stories? Yeah... they missed an opportunity.
	🎸 ♥ 10:40pm Austin Rich: Today's story is written by William Tenn, the pseudonym of Philip Klass. He usually wrote satirical stories. The radio adaptation was written by George Lefferts
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Austin Rich: Clarance Darrow had been dead for 13 years at the time of this broadcast. en.wikipedia.org...
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: Sam's pronunciation of "Guillotine" reveals that he never took High School French.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: "Zipping Around With Each Other" is astonishingly the most suggestive and the most clean phrase imaginable.
	♥ 10:52pm MHLee: zip
	♥ 10:52pm MHLee: that escalated quickly
	♥ 10:55pm MHLee: monkey glands might be an actual reference to quacks who were putting animal testicles in people
	🎸 ♥ 10:56pm Austin Rich: This show was made in 1951, and psychiatry was still relatively nascent, and really only took off in the 60's. The idea that the main character in this story is so aware of being repressed, and creates a version of himself who has had the breakthroughs his other self hasn't had, is very interesting.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58pm Austin Rich: I think we're gonna go 5-ish minutes over.
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: Thanks for tuning in, everyone! See ya next week.
	♥ 11:02pm WR: Thank you, Austin!
	♥ 11:02pm MHLee: the old sam was an attempted murderer so
	♥ 11:03pm MHLee: thanks austin
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Barno in Akron: Thanks, Austin
	♥ 11:03pm Scott67: Thanks Austin! If you really ARE Austin!? 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎸 ♥ 11:04pm Austin Rich: I used to be Austin... once...

	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Austin Rich: Scott67! The pillar of Sheena's support!
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: Kicking off our story with a kidnapping is sort of a different way of starting Box 13, but I think this is our second story that was set on a boat? Maybe they're running out of settings...
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: "My arm sir, it breaks easily!"
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm Austin Rich: We have enough Box 13 and Dimension X to run until March. (We'll be taking December off for some Holiday programming, of course.) I know I've mentioned that I'll follow up Dimension X with a show called X-Minus One, a program made with the same creative team and production crew, just under a different name.

	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: I haven't entirely decided what to follow up Box 13 with. I have a few ideas, of adventure / noir type shows. I'm leaning toward "Candy Matson," a detective show that only has a handful of episodes, but offers the rare Female Led Detective show, which I'm a big fan of.
	♥ 9:10pm Scott67: @9:06, So does my wind!💨
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: I suspect that both Scott67 and I are fans of a certain Spinal Tap album, "Break Like The Wind"?
	♥ 9:12pm Scott67: A work of some substance Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: This is another recordings where you can, very faintly, hear another recording behind the one that is prominent. I know I've talked about this before, but a lot of Old Time Radio shows exist in that form.
