WFMU: Dimestore Radio Theater with Austin Rich: Playlist from May 29, 2023

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 6:50pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	🎸 ♥ 9:01pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Ahoy! Nice to be here. Looking forward to finding out what Candy is up to and what Sailor and Shannon are getting into.
	9:02pm Charles: Don't mind me, just playing with my organ.
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:01 This is a good one! A "New Year's" Candy episode... with a Western Motif!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:02 Zing!
	🎸 ♥ 9:02pm Austin Rich: "A Dowager - Slightly Boozy!"
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Speaking of organs, Austin, should we add some organ cues to our project?
	🎸 ♥ 9:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:03 I was thinking I would have to cook up some music cues. But I could do some more period-appropriate music.
	🎸 ♥ 9:04pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:03 Sounds perfect
	9:06pm Charles: Do you have some radio movies cued up for some future holiday Austin? I love those.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""The Valley of The Moon"" by "Candy Matson" So, the episode from 10 December 1949 was also a holiday episode, about the folks working in Santas village at a Department Store. This one is supposed to be set "spending New Years" at the ranch. So we can guess that the next episode should be set in 1950, at some point in January.
	🎸 ♥ 9:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:06 I was thinking about doing a movie episode at some point this summer, like a "summer break" situation.
	🎸 ♥ 9:07pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:06 Kitty Foyle would be a good choice.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: Some movies might actually work as "audio plays," as a lot of old movies do a good job of having a character sort of describe what's happening in the scene.
	🎸 ♥ 9:09pm Austin Rich: You sort of get the impression that Mallard likes Westerns more than he likes Candy.
	🎸 ♥ 9:11pm Austin Rich: The "Dude Ranch Vacation" plot has appeared in a few Detective shows, and some of the plots get recycled, for sure. But I think this one takes a slightly different tack than normal.
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 Lux Radio TheAter is an excellent source of movie to radio translations
	🎸 ♥ 9:12pm Austin Rich: One character detail about Candy that I appreciate is that she gets angry when people are rude to her, and she doesn't back down. An unusual trait for a west-coaster, but I think that's on purpose: Candy's personality sticks out, in a way that makes her a lot different than a lot of the typical characterizations.
	🎸 ♥ 9:13pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:12 And there's a ton of them!
	🎸 ♥ 9:14pm Austin Rich: "One painkiller, comin' up." I gotta remember that line.
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Webhamster Henry: Happy Holidays, Candy!
	🎸 ♥ 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:16 Howdy, Webhamster Henry!
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Austin Rich: I think we lost connection for a second? I do apologize about that.
	🎸 ♥ 9:17pm Webhamster Henry: I've been listening to Suspenses on Archive.org. I love hearing actors doing kind of out of character roles.
	9:18pm Charles: Heeey Acme!
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:17 That show has a lot of guest stars! Lot of cool, weird roles for old Hollywood folks.
	🎸 ♥ 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:18 Had to bring back a few of the old ACME ads.
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm Webhamster Henry: Candy's tagline should have been "The High-heeled Gumshoe!
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:19 Zing! That's pretty clever.
	🎸 ♥ 9:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:18 Did Acme have any products back in the 1800s?
	🎸 ♥ 9:20pm Austin Rich: Even in 1949, people from San Francisco get mad when people call it "Frisco."
	🎸 ♥ 9:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:19 Sealing wax... handkerchiefs... uhm... you know... the usual.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @9:20 Humdingers, certainly.
	9:21pm Charles: Greeted by Rembrendt. huge musical sting
	🎸 ♥ 9:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:21 (Who should have had his own show... he's a pretty good voice actor, for sure.)
	🎸 ♥ 9:23pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:20 Might consider those for an intermission for that project we're working on.
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: You can tell that this era of Candy Matson was live, because there's a fair number of small "flubs" in the dialog readings. They're not common, but just common enough to remind you that, yes, they were live!
	🎸 ♥ 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:23 Maybe!
	🎸 ♥ 9:27pm Austin Rich: This show does like to reinforce that Candy is very "pretty," to make the juxtaposition of her living a "rough and tumble" lifestyle that much more interesting.
	🎸 ♥ 9:29pm Austin Rich: So, they spent at least one night on the ranch. They were supposed to stay "over New Years." The show revealed Candy Arriving... so unless there is a lot of time compression going on, New Year's Eve still hasn't happened. It's strange that no one else seems to mention it, or seems to be looking forward to it...?
	🎸 ♥ 9:31pm Austin Rich: Candy even admits when she's wrong! She's the entire package.
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm Austin Rich: And I guess that ending takes place after she's already returned... so certainly the next episode should be set in 1950 already.
	🎸 ♥ 9:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:24 When are we going to reveal the project?
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:33 I think we can start talking about it, but it might be quite a few months before it's all done. Casting can take time. But I think we'll get there.
	🎸 ♥ 9:35pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:34 I think you are right. Good things take time
	🎸 ♥ 9:37pm Austin Rich: Finding other women to voice the other roles is the challenge right now. We got lots of men who are lining up to do voices, but not as many women. But we'll figure it out.
	🎸 ♥ 9:38pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: I could do another voice if needed.
	🎸 ♥ 9:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:38 We might double up a few voices. Heather thinks we should find someone a little younger - or, who can sound a little younger - for Emma. (Unless there's a secret about that character we don't yet know...)
	🎸 ♥ 9:41pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 Emma is in her early 20s so a young voice would be good.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Webhamster Henry: "Only Squares Use Money! I use Bogart-coins!"
	🎸 ♥ 9:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:42 I'm surprised Bogart's Hologram didn't make a BitCoin commercial.
	🎸 ♥ 9:43pm David Shortell: The way Lauren Bacall said "squares"; I didn't know the word was used insultingly as long ago as 1951.
	🎸 ♥ 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @9:43 Good ear! I wonder if it has an older origin? Maybe it was slang in another era, and bringing it back started around here?
	🎸 ♥ 9:47pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:39 Imaginos was born in 1804 but stopped aging in his late twenties, though the story takes place in the 1880s.
	🎸 ♥ 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:47 I was wondering if we'd get more details in the second installment.
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Webhamster Henry: it's the "Beat Up Shannon" part of the show.
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:52 There is a bit of a formula, isn't there?
	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Austin Rich @9:52 It may actually align minute by minute!
	🎸 ♥ 9:54pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:52 I think I've said it before: the stories on Bold Venture aren't that great... but... it's Bogart and Bacall? So... they get a lot of leeway.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:48 Sent you episode 2
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Webhamster Henry: Shannon's going to get the bends.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:55 I saw that.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: This is the part where Sailor tries to save the day.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Webhamster Henry: Too bad they are too far offshore for Shanon to get arrested.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @9:45 I’m more curious about the origin of insultingly using index fingers to outline the shape of a square (revived in the 1994 movie “Pulp Fiction”). The oldest example I know of is Harvey Kurtzman and Jack Davis’ “Alice in Wonderland!” parody in MAD #18 (cover dated December 1954).
	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @9:58 Damn! I should look that up. I do love Jack Davis' work.
	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ David Shortell @9:58 L7🔲
	🎸 ♥ 10:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:59 That's how I learned it.
	🎸 ♥ 10:01pm Austin Rich: "It'll Build."
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm David Shortell: I can’t wait for “Perigi's Wonderful Dolls”, a precursor of “Living Doll” (the Twilight Zone episode, not the Julie Newmar sitcom) and the Chucky movie series. I’ve seen the Simpsons parody of that TZ episode, but not the Johnny Bravo parody.
	♥ 10:08pm Maulydaft: I just love X Minus One but for some reason this is my least fav episode! I'd love to see the Simpson's parody though :D
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ David Shortell @10:03 Don't forget the bitey dolls in Barbarella
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: "Anything goes!"
	♥ 10:14pm Maulydaft: I didn't even know Empire of the Air existed until Dimestore Radio! Thanks! :) "Don't Touch that Dial" book has a great chapter on racism in radio and Black programming.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:14 I've been meaning to read that. This documentary was based on a book, too, but I haven't read it yet.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Dozing off. Good show, tho.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:19 Sleep well! See ya next time.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Tomorrow night
	♥ 10:20pm Maulydaft: I've always been fascinated by the politics of AM/FM...
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @9:59 The Jack Davis panel can be found in these links concerning index finger square-outlining: ken-jennings.com... slate.com...
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:20 Thanks for the link! This looks interesting.
	🎸 ♥ 10:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:20 It's funny how they both still exist, but AM has sort of just become religious radio, for the most part. At least in my experience, I can't find many AM stations that aren't just religious.
	♥ 10:28pm Maulydaft: ↳ Austin Rich @10:22 Definitely depends where you live. I'm in Canada - no trouble finding lots of non-religious AM :D But I believe we started RocknRoll on AM back in the day anyway, so we've got a history of changing things up. :D
	🎸 ♥ 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:28 Canadian Radio rules! (At least, the stuff I've heard.) But I think growing up on boring American radio makes a lot of other stuff sound really interesting.
	♥ 10:34pm Maulydaft: We do pretty well, but I love American radio too - well the indie stations :)
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:34 Yeah. Not everywhere is lame. But certainly there's a lot of garbage, too. We have as much crap as we have cool stuff.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm David Shortell: The only Canadian radio I've ever listened to is Hamilton's CHML (900 AM), which I can receive in my car radio as far south as Ocean County! For years, they repeated classic radio programs every night from 10 p.m. till 1 a.m. Then as 2022 began, they limited it to weekend nights only. I'm still irate about that.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:38 Bummer!
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Austin Rich: "Be Sorry!"
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: ""Perigi's Wonderful Dolls"" by "X-Minus One" Ooh a subscription model KILLER AI DOLL.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: Mr. Blister? That's a weird name, I think
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:42 Came here to say the same! Mr. Blister?! Goodness.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: The mom is horrified by the daughter saying that? Has she ever heard little girls? They are terrifying!
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Heather Z: Oh no......
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Heather Z: No no no no no.
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: Yeah. This is a pretty rough episode.
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:45 Yeah......
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Austin Rich: I do hate that, like a lot of sci-fi stories, not believing their own kids is a part of the plot. Sigh.
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Heather Z: Phew. This is no time for feelings to interfere.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Webhamster Henry: Casey Kasem will pop in here with a dedication.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:49 Hopefully in his Shaggy voice!
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Heather Z: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:49 Noooooo 😂
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Austin Rich: Fortunately, the dog in this show was played by a person, so really, a person died... which is not as sad as a dog dying.
	🎸 ♥ 10:57pm Austin Rich: We're gonna go five minutes over. Sorry about that...
	10:58pm Charles: For which government do you work Toto ?!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Webhamster Henry: "Meretrix" -- Latin for "Whore"
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Austin Rich: "A WATT?"
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: Thanks for joining everyone! See ya next week!
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:02 Thanks for a great show! Night all!
	♥ 11:05pm WR: Thank you! Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 11:06pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks -- sequencing the same shows makes it a lot like a real radio listening experience!

	🎸 ♥ 9:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:52 There is a bit of a formula, isn't there?

	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Webhamster Henry: Shannon's going to get the bends.
	🎸 ♥ 9:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:55 I saw that.
	🎸 ♥ 9:57pm Austin Rich: This is the part where Sailor tries to save the day.
	🎸 ♥ 9:58pm Webhamster Henry: Too bad they are too far offshore for Shanon to get arrested.

	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @9:58 Damn! I should look that up. I do love Jack Davis' work.
	🎸 ♥ 9:59pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ David Shortell @9:58 L7🔲
	🎸 ♥ 10:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:59 That's how I learned it.
	🎸 ♥ 10:01pm Austin Rich: "It'll Build."
	🎸 ♥ 10:03pm David Shortell: I can’t wait for “Perigi's Wonderful Dolls”, a precursor of “Living Doll” (the Twilight Zone episode, not the Julie Newmar sitcom) and the Chucky movie series. I’ve seen the Simpsons parody of that TZ episode, but not the Johnny Bravo parody.
	♥ 10:08pm Maulydaft: I just love X Minus One but for some reason this is my least fav episode! I'd love to see the Simpson's parody though :D
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ David Shortell @10:03 Don't forget the bitey dolls in Barbarella
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: "Anything goes!"
	♥ 10:14pm Maulydaft: I didn't even know Empire of the Air existed until Dimestore Radio! Thanks! :) "Don't Touch that Dial" book has a great chapter on racism in radio and Black programming.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:14 I've been meaning to read that. This documentary was based on a book, too, but I haven't read it yet.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Dozing off. Good show, tho.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:19 Sleep well! See ya next time.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Tomorrow night
	♥ 10:20pm Maulydaft: I've always been fascinated by the politics of AM/FM...
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @9:59 The Jack Davis panel can be found in these links concerning index finger square-outlining: ken-jennings.com... slate.com...
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:20 Thanks for the link! This looks interesting.
	🎸 ♥ 10:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:20 It's funny how they both still exist, but AM has sort of just become religious radio, for the most part. At least in my experience, I can't find many AM stations that aren't just religious.
	♥ 10:28pm Maulydaft: ↳ Austin Rich @10:22 Definitely depends where you live. I'm in Canada - no trouble finding lots of non-religious AM :D But I believe we started RocknRoll on AM back in the day anyway, so we've got a history of changing things up. :D
	🎸 ♥ 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:28 Canadian Radio rules! (At least, the stuff I've heard.) But I think growing up on boring American radio makes a lot of other stuff sound really interesting.
	♥ 10:34pm Maulydaft: We do pretty well, but I love American radio too - well the indie stations :)
	🎸 ♥ 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @10:34 Yeah. Not everywhere is lame. But certainly there's a lot of garbage, too. We have as much crap as we have cool stuff.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm David Shortell: The only Canadian radio I've ever listened to is Hamilton's CHML (900 AM), which I can receive in my car radio as far south as Ocean County! For years, they repeated classic radio programs every night from 10 p.m. till 1 a.m. Then as 2022 began, they limited it to weekend nights only. I'm still irate about that.
	🎸 ♥ 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:38 Bummer!
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Austin Rich: "Be Sorry!"
	🎸 ♥ 10:41pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: ""Perigi's Wonderful Dolls"" by "X-Minus One" Ooh a subscription model KILLER AI DOLL.
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Austin Rich: Mr. Blister? That's a weird name, I think
	🎸 ♥ 10:42pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:42 Came here to say the same! Mr. Blister?! Goodness.
	🎸 ♥ 10:43pm Austin Rich: The mom is horrified by the daughter saying that? Has she ever heard little girls? They are terrifying!
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Heather Z: Oh no......
	🎸 ♥ 10:44pm Heather Z: No no no no no.
	🎸 ♥ 10:45pm Austin Rich: Yeah. This is a pretty rough episode.
	🎸 ♥ 10:46pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:45 Yeah......
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Austin Rich: I do hate that, like a lot of sci-fi stories, not believing their own kids is a part of the plot. Sigh.
	🎸 ♥ 10:48pm Heather Z: Phew. This is no time for feelings to interfere.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Webhamster Henry: Casey Kasem will pop in here with a dedication.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:49 Hopefully in his Shaggy voice!
	🎸 ♥ 10:49pm Heather Z: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:49 Noooooo 😂
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Austin Rich: Fortunately, the dog in this show was played by a person, so really, a person died... which is not as sad as a dog dying.
	🎸 ♥ 10:57pm Austin Rich: We're gonna go five minutes over. Sorry about that...
	10:58pm Charles: For which government do you work Toto ?!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:59pm Webhamster Henry: "Meretrix" -- Latin for "Whore"
	🎸 ♥ 11:00pm Austin Rich: "A WATT?"
	🎸 ♥ 11:02pm Austin Rich: Thanks for joining everyone! See ya next week!
	🎸 ♥ 11:03pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:02 Thanks for a great show! Night all!
	♥ 11:05pm WR: Thank you! Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 11:06pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks -- sequencing the same shows makes it a lot like a real radio listening experience!
