I was struck by how small Wrigley Field looked yesterday without ppl in its seats. It prompted an argument w my almost ancient mother about the varying sizes of a stadium's field .She suggested betting a million dollars on her belief that all playing fields are a standardized size no matter the size of the venue

  ♥ 2:50pm Listener Robert:

What's funny is that I was guessing to my friend that that was Jim Backus, doing a voice other than the one he was famous for. Something about the delivery sounded like his speech rhythm. My friend didn't hear it as anything like that. But then I looked at the playlist -- Steve Allen!
