I will start to prime everyone now: I have prizes to give away! I will have a talk break after Box 13, where I'll start giving them away. But keep in mind if you make a donation of at least $20 today, you can get a book or a CD! More details to follow!

Item one up for grabs: "Radio Rewrite" by Steve Reich! This is a reworking of his favorite Radiohead pieces, the only time Steve Reich has ever re-worked any kind of pop music. A very unusual and unique release! This can be yours if you make a donation today!

Hey Austin!
Long time Reich fan. I've never had any interest in Radiohead, but if anything could get me to listen to 'em, that would be it.

Yes, Mr. Fab, this actually caught my interest, too, and I've never really cared much about Radiohead. It doesn't sound anything like Radiohead, so that's one thing going for it.

'I'm Waiting for My Man" is now in my head

I guess having Dan Holiday hired by a young boy wasn't enough, so they decided to have an even younger girl hire him.

In 1948, it was probably going to be "unusual" no matter how it turns out. (There's a very comical "coda" that sort of dwells on that.)

Mr. Fab: if you made a donation last week, and you wanted to make a supplemental donation so you were over that $20 mark this week, would that qualify you for a prize?

Austin Rich:

I'm sure it happens, but I'm trying to imagine parents just leaving their children in a park, and then mailing instructions to a PO Box for a writer to find, and hopefully go and pick up the child. Seems like you might need a plan B... or C... or D, even.

There's a second item up for a prize this hour: "Inside Cave Hollywood: The Harvey Kubernik Music Innerviews and Interviews Collection Vol. 1" This is a collection of articles by music historian, Harvey Kubernik, and contains some very cool unpublished photos and articles about the Rolling Stones, Chess Records, Motown, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Carole King, Bob Marley, and more! A music nerds book, if ever there was one.

Kubernik is a legend. I can totally vouch for his books.

I think Alan Ladd's voice is PERFECT for this show.

He often ends up in situations in which he isn't sure who to trust, if anyone. He uses his voice to build the suspense and emotions

I have to get back to editing, I donated $10 last week, I have been off Unemployment since Sept 2021 and just get by on a few things that I get to edit for other people, so I had been planning on just the $10. I'll let you know if I change my mind on that

"Inside Cave Hollywood: The Harvey Kubernik Music Innerviews and Interviews Collection Vol. 1" actually retails for MORE than $20. Pledge to the station and you're SAVING money!

The sound is a little "meh" this week. I did my best to clean it up, and EQ it a little so it sounds a little better.

We're lucky that these exist at all, in some cases.

Thanks Ellen! Any little amount is totally appreciated! And: Thank you!
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 6:50pm
Austin Rich:

Again, there are more... uhm... "accents" that are not exactly authentic, and are certainly problematic. But I do appreciate that by listening to this show, this is probably some of the only exposure to any exotic locations and cultures that people in 1947 got, so I'm sure they thought they were being somewhat progressive at the time.

Austin, I just was thinking earlier with the "child" voice. You don't hear kids "baby talk" so much anymore. Parents tend to talk to them like they're almost human nowadays.

In hour two, we are opening up two more prizes for any potential donors! Here's the first one:

"Psychedelic Sex Kicks - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack - CD + DVD"

This prize FLEW off the prize list last week, the moment it was announced. It's a soundtrack to some "unusual" films from the Sexploitation film scene, and the DVD includes some video clips from choice scenes. The soundtrack is astonishing, and a great slice of music that you just don't find in film anymore. This CD + DVD package is yours, for a donation of $20!
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 7:03pm
Austin Rich:

@Scott67: I'm with you on the "baby talk." I think adults just talk, and kids are smarter than us anyway, so they pick it up pretty quick.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 7:06pm
Austin Rich:

Our second prize for hour two is my personal favorite, and one that I wish I could keep:

"The Musical Touch of Leonard Nimoy: His fascinating musical career and discography." This book covers the musical life of Leonard Nimoy, including magazine articles and photos, stories about recording and making his albums, and other tid-bits about his career in music. (I'm sure Spock comes up from time to time.) Over 100 pages of details about SPOCK-TUNES. If you are a Nimoy fan, this is a MUST HAVE book.

I'm thinking about ordering a copy from the publisher, but it's a little more than what you would have to pay if you wanted this as your prize. Just make a donation of $20, and this book is yours!

Mr Fab:

WOW!

Austin Rich:

Every time there's a fight sequence in a radio program, I think of that scene from "A Christmas Story," where Ralphie is listening to Little Orphan Annie, and it's just a bunch of random noises and SFX for a long, long time for most of the episode.

I do like the time vacation idea. I would use it all to see shows and concerts from the past, that I never got to see because I'm too young.

Probably a Joy Division show or two.
