WFMU: Dimestore Radio Theater with Austin Rich: Playlist from November 13, 2023

Listener comments!
	👻 6:01pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	9:01pm Imaginos: Ahoy, A awesome Austin
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:01 Nice to see you again! Always a pleasure.
	👻 9:04pm Austin Rich: What I have noticed in reviewing shows with jack-of-all-trades style heroes: they are always very nice to children.
	9:05pm Mr Fab: “ It disappeared faster than whiskey at a wake” haha.
	👻 9:05pm yerfriendpaul: Hey Austin, everyone!
	👻 9:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:05 Yeah. I love the writing on this show.
	👻 9:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:05 Yay! Nice to see you in the chat!
	9:07pm Imaginos: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:05 Nice to see you too
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: "You've been smokin' bath salts."
	9:10pm Imaginos: I didn't know bath salts went back that far
	👻 9:10pm WR: Heading to bed early hoping to head off a head cold. Will listen to this from the archive. Someone else please keep count of the number of people asking for the body of Slate Shannon. I would think that more folks would be interested in the body of his slinky accomplice. [rim shot/cymbal choke].
	9:11pm Dean: Earliest reference in OED to bath salts: 1907.
	👻 9:11pm yerfriendpaul: Run for it, Rocky!
	👻 9:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @9:10 It made me smile! Sleep well, WR!
	👻 9:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Dean @9:11 Thanks Dean!
	👻 9:13pm yerfriendpaul: Don’t mess with Marvel
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: Rocky has, in all the episodes we've heard so far, consistently referred to the police as "Gendarmerie," the french way of referring to an officer of the law. I wonder if Rocky spent some time in France? (Or, more likley, tried to woo a French girl once?)
	9:15pm Imaginos: Rocky is in the DeadWoods Circus!
	9:16pm Webhamster Henry: "He's been sick" << one of my favorite excuses.
	9:17pm Webhamster Henry: The voices in this episode are so great!
	👻 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:17 Nice to see you in the chat, Webhamster Henry! Yeah, I think this is one of the stand-out episodes of this series.
	👻 9:20pm yerfriendpaul: I misjudged Marvel. I feel like a jerk
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: I love this chase scene.
	9:25pm Imaginos: Counting is a great way to let the sfx guy know when to do his thing
	👻 9:25pm yerfriendpaul: Fantastic
	👻 9:26pm Austin Rich: I love circus stories. I have a collection of circus records. I think I only ever went a couple times as a kid, and I realize they are cruel, with all the animals they tour with. But damn... I love the idea of circuses.
	9:27pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:26 You must have seen or heard Toby Tyler
	9:27pm Webhamster Henry: I thought I heard Mason Adams in there - didn't know he was working in 1953!
	👻 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:27 I have not see this! I'll have to check it out.
	9:30pm Imaginos: ↳ Song: ""Bring Me The Body of Slate Shannon"" by "Bold Ve... Three...two...one... WHACK!
	9:30pm Webhamster Henry: Bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia!
	👻 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Bring Me The Body of Slate Shannon"" by "Bold Ve... I think I have mentioned this before: for a long time, there was a lot of confusion about how many episodes of "Bold Venture" there were, because the shows would be presented under different names in different markets. Some episodes were known by five different names. I'm still not sure how this happened; I guess the names were not distributed with the episodes, and broadcasters made up names? I don't know. But the names are not always "accurate," and it's hard to know which name is "right."
	9:37pm Webhamster Henry: Is this hick Barton Yarborough?
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: I think I might have mentioned this before, too, but: "Bold Venture" was ported to TV several years after the radio series was finished, with a completely different cast, and a few other differences in the premise. I think 45 episodes of this show were made, but I have no idea if the stories are similar in any way.
	👻 9:45pm yerfriendpaul: Ouch!! Ha ha! Fat shaming
	👻 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:45 Yeah. I don't love that.
	👻 9:47pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:26 A lot of circuses now are people acts only! I saw one this spring and omg, the talent. It was incredible!! They did have a performer in a bear suit for the kiddies to get overpriced pics with. I wore leopard print to the show so I was an animal act, too.
	👻 9:47pm Austin Rich: I wonder how many episodes of "Bold Venture" have Slate appear to be dead at the half-way point, and then is fine in the second half?
	9:48pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Austin Rich @9:47 At least he's getting a bath this time.
	9:48pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @9:47 My cat is Cirque du Soleil
	👻 9:48pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @9:46 Yep
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:47 Nice to see you in the chat! I'm glad they are all "Human-Only" these days, but at the same time, I hope that the animals with wanderlust can find some other kind of work these days.
	👻 9:49pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @9:48 Aww, what a talented baby!! 😻
	9:49pm Imaginos: ↳ Imaginos @9:48 Fav not cat
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:48 Yeah, a bath is a WONDERFUL thing.
	9:50pm Imaginos: Though she can be clever
	👻 9:50pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @9:49 It's cat now! Never seen Cirque! Most definitely want to!
	👻 9:51pm Austin Rich: Steve Roberts wrote a stage show for a Cirque performance. And Peter Wagg - one of the Headroom producers - now directs Cirque films.
	9:51pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @9:50 Btw, I'm going to A concert next month
	👻 9:52pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @9:51 Who are you going to see?? Oddly, I was at a Tool show last week and missed this show due to that.
	9:52pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @9:52 Albert Bouchard
	👻 9:52pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:51 Oo... an in for a discount ticket maybe??
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:52 You and your Progressive Rock.
	👻 9:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @9:52 Have so much fun!! I'm not familiar with their work!
	9:53pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @9:53 He was the drummer for Blue Oyster Cult
	👻 9:54pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Me and my friend with the extra ticket to the prog rock. But it was good. They had a big light show and I always forget how much I love a light show until I see one again.
	👻 9:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:53 But also has had a very interesting career since then.
	👻 9:54pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @9:53 Ah yessss!! That'll be so good!!! What kind of venue?
	👻 9:55pm yerfriendpaul: Nice job, Sailor!
	9:56pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @9:54 www.indieonthemove.com...
	👻 9:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:55 Yeah. She's the swellest.
	👻 9:58pm Heather Z: ↳ Imaginos @9:56 Oo that looks awesome!!
	9:58pm Imaginos: ↳ Heather Z @9:58 Its oWned and run by Daryl Hall
	10:01pm Dean: I can't follow the thread here, but isn't Bouchard drumming for Handsome Dick Manitoba?
	👻 10:04pm yerfriendpaul: It’s back
	10:04pm Imaginos: Zippers?
	10:06pm Imaginos: ↳ Dean @10:01 In December he's doing his Imaginos Trilogy concert. But I bow to the true expert in all matters Albert Bouchard... albertbouchard.net...
	👻 10:13pm yerfriendpaul: Trying to take notes. I might need you to start it again
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:13 I'll have to send you a link to the documentary.
	👻 10:15pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:15 Love the pleasant music behind the guy.
	10:16pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Radio Antenna Fundamentals Part 5" by "The United... Absolutely!Controlling the phase between the two antennas can make it directional.
	👻 10:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:15 I had to add music, otherwise it would be almost hypnotic to listen to.
	👻 10:17pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:16 Yes, of course!
	👻 10:17pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:16 Oh, ha ha! Thank you for giving us something to cling to!
	10:18pm Imaginos: ↳ Song: "Radio Antenna Fundamentals Part 5" by "The United... Zzzzzzzzz....
	10:19pm Imaginos: Still awake
	👻 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:18 Yeah, this documentary is SO BORING. I was shocked. Like, I'll watch any old boring documentary. But this one... wow...
	👻 10:20pm yerfriendpaul: I’m wondering if the narrator actually knows these facts
	10:20pm Imaginos: Midnight donuts!
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:20 Seems unlikely.
	👻 10:22pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 I’m guessing he didn’t have a clue.
	10:23pm Imaginos: Batman wouldn't approve
	👻 10:24pm yerfriendpaul: Ha ha! Love the woman’s reaction to his kiss
	👻 10:24pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: ""Smashing The Spy Ring"" by "The Blue Beetle" I think the BB you read, Austin, was the Silver Age revamp character Steve Ditko cocreated, not the preceding character who stars in this series.
	10:24pm Webhamster Henry: "The Blue Beetle works alone!" << not unique in this hero sentiment. The Blue Beetle speaks of himself in the 3rd person.
	👻 10:24pm Austin Rich: I re-watched "Blade Runner" this weekend, and this time, it really struck me how much it wants to be a film noir. Like, most of the movie is, "Are we Noir enough?"
	👻 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:24 I think you are correct! This 40s version I mostly knew by reputation, as the comic I read would refer to this older version sometimes. But mostly, it was an 80's comic with a funny, quippy character who had modern gadgets. It was fun.
	👻 10:28pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 Ted is supposed to appear in the sequel to the recent movie.
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:24 "The Blue Beetle seeks no reward." It's like reading back-issues of Cerebus.
	10:29pm Imaginos: Is that static or was it recorded in a burning studio?
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:28 Oh! I might have to tune in for that.
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:29 Zing!
	👻 10:33pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Austin! Enjoyed the show!
	10:33pm Imaginos: Great show tonight
	👻 10:34pm Austin Rich: Thank you. I do like to sit around and listen to radio with friends.
	10:35pm Imaginos: I'm going into lurk mode for the rest so I can listen until I fall asleep, but tonight's chat was also awesome
	👻 10:36pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:35 Sleep well! Take care.
	10:37pm Imaginos: Thank you
	10:39pm Mike Rogers: Hi Austin san!
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:39 Hello Mike Rogers! Always a pleasure to have you in the chat.
	👻 10:41pm Austin Rich: "I watched you on the television in college." This line probably meant something else in 1955 than it does in 2023. Back then, it's likely he meant, "All sorts of things are taught via TV in our era," where now, we would probably imagine that the Dr. has a YouTube show.
	10:43pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Austin Rich @10:40 Hey, I'm going into the hospital tomorrow (for a few days) so I have a million things to take care of! Sorry, I have been really busy with tedious things.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:43 Do you need me to cover Sounds From Space next week?
	10:46pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 Nah, I will only be in the hospital for 3 days... Unless, unless....
	10:46pm Mike Rogers: But thanks for your kind offer, Austin.... Really, thanks so much.
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:46 Just wanted to offer. I'm more than happy to help.
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: Getting near the end hear. Stick around for Sounds From Space!
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: If 1987 was 20 years ago... this story is set in 2007.
	10:53pm Scobot: I thought that too, Austin. Huh?
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: Apparently, it's really easy to fall in love with robots, according to Sci-Fi.
	👻 10:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Scobot @10:53 Nice to see you in the chat, Scobot!
	10:54pm Scobot: Broadcast from ‘55. Glad to be here, Austin.
	10:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 Sci-fi predicted the weirdos we have today with AI “girlfriends.”
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: Killing replicants and falling in love with robots... seems like Blade Runner owes a small debt to this story, too.
	10:56pm AI Robot: ↳ Mr Fab @10:55 What? What's wrong with an AI girlfriend?
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ AI Robot @10:56 Nothing. But they always seem to want my credit card number. Again.
	10:57pm Mr Fab: Speaking of noir, I'll be hosting two hours of “tiki noir” filing in for Miss Mei tomorrow.
	10:57pm AI Robot: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 Hmmm? Basic Background check????
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:57 Hell yeah!
	👻 10:58pm Austin Rich: Thanks again, everyone!

	👻 10:28pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 Ted is supposed to appear in the sequel to the recent movie.
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:24 "The Blue Beetle seeks no reward." It's like reading back-issues of Cerebus.
	10:29pm Imaginos: Is that static or was it recorded in a burning studio?
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:28 Oh! I might have to tune in for that.
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:29 Zing!
	👻 10:33pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Austin! Enjoyed the show!
	10:33pm Imaginos: Great show tonight
	👻 10:34pm Austin Rich: Thank you. I do like to sit around and listen to radio with friends.
	10:35pm Imaginos: I'm going into lurk mode for the rest so I can listen until I fall asleep, but tonight's chat was also awesome
	👻 10:36pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:35 Sleep well! Take care.
	10:37pm Imaginos: Thank you
	10:39pm Mike Rogers: Hi Austin san!
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:39 Hello Mike Rogers! Always a pleasure to have you in the chat.
	👻 10:41pm Austin Rich: "I watched you on the television in college." This line probably meant something else in 1955 than it does in 2023. Back then, it's likely he meant, "All sorts of things are taught via TV in our era," where now, we would probably imagine that the Dr. has a YouTube show.
	10:43pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Austin Rich @10:40 Hey, I'm going into the hospital tomorrow (for a few days) so I have a million things to take care of! Sorry, I have been really busy with tedious things.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:43 Do you need me to cover Sounds From Space next week?
	10:46pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 Nah, I will only be in the hospital for 3 days... Unless, unless....
	10:46pm Mike Rogers: But thanks for your kind offer, Austin.... Really, thanks so much.
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:46 Just wanted to offer. I'm more than happy to help.
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: Getting near the end hear. Stick around for Sounds From Space!
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: If 1987 was 20 years ago... this story is set in 2007.
	10:53pm Scobot: I thought that too, Austin. Huh?
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: Apparently, it's really easy to fall in love with robots, according to Sci-Fi.
	👻 10:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Scobot @10:53 Nice to see you in the chat, Scobot!
	10:54pm Scobot: Broadcast from ‘55. Glad to be here, Austin.
	10:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 Sci-fi predicted the weirdos we have today with AI “girlfriends.”
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: Killing replicants and falling in love with robots... seems like Blade Runner owes a small debt to this story, too.
	10:56pm AI Robot: ↳ Mr Fab @10:55 What? What's wrong with an AI girlfriend?
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ AI Robot @10:56 Nothing. But they always seem to want my credit card number. Again.
	10:57pm Mr Fab: Speaking of noir, I'll be hosting two hours of “tiki noir” filing in for Miss Mei tomorrow.
	10:57pm AI Robot: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 Hmmm? Basic Background check????
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:57 Hell yeah!
	👻 10:58pm Austin Rich: Thanks again, everyone!
