WFMU: Dimestore Radio Theater with Austin Rich: Playlist from December 9, 2024

Listener comments!
	👻 7:23pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	9:00pm Imaginos: Ahoy me hearties
	9:01pm Webhamster Henry: Hi ! We have some Holiday Candy!
	9:02pm Webhamster Henry: YU2-0829!
	9:02pm Webhamster Henry: YU2-8209 that is
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: Nice to see you in the Digital Salon, Imaginos and Webhamster Henry! Sit down and enjoy the show! Its' re-runs, but that's doesn't mean we can't have fun!
	9:03pm Webhamster Henry: I probably missed them the first time around anyway.
	👻 9:03pm Austin Rich: I always appreciate how dark Candy's sense of humor is.
	9:04pm Imaginos: Ribbon candy. Lip ripping good
	9:04pm Maulydaft: Aww Candy! She's so overlooked! Thanks for playing :)
	👻 9:04pm Austin Rich: In the case of all three of our Candy stories this week, we have heard them on the show before... but, not around the holidays! All three of these were played "out of season," as we were just listening to the show "in order." While Candy sounds good all year long, I do think she sounds better at Christmas.
	👻 9:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @9:04 I LOVE Candy Matson. I wish there were more! If only I had scripts, I would re-enact old episodes. And: thanks for joining us!
	👻 9:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:04 I love Ribbon Candy, but yes: it is rough on the mouth.
	9:06pm Maulydaft: I had to explain to a 12 year old yesterday was ribbon candy was. She'd never seen it!
	👻 9:06pm Austin Rich: Rembrandt is coded queer, and the show never says it outright. But there are many clues.
	9:07pm Maulydaft: And he's really the only positive gay character I've hear in OTR...
	9:07pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:06 A friend of Dorothy as they used to say
	👻 9:08pm Austin Rich: There were almost 90 episodes of Candy Matson made "back in the day," but less than 20 exist in the modern day. Strangely, a large number of them are holiday episodes.
	👻 9:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @9:07 Another reason Candy is the best.
	9:08pm Maulydaft: ↳ Austin Rich @9:08 It's so sad that so few exist :(
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:07 That's right! I was just thinking about watching The Wizard of Oz again.
	9:10pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 Going to see Wicked tomorrow morning
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: Since I was not yet re-mastering episodes when I ran Candy Matson, I did some re-mastering on these episodes, using a number of digital tools. I think they sound a lot better than they used to.
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:10 Very cool! You'll have to tell me how it is.
	9:10pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Austin Rich @9:05 Eating ribbon candy actually killed one of my mother's dogs!
	9:11pm Imaginos: Have seen Wizard of Oz, Return to Oz,, Oz the Great and Powerful, and Tin Man
	👻 9:11pm Austin Rich: "A Man Named Jordan." "That's on another network." Candy often breaks the fourth wall.
	👻 9:12pm Austin Rich: We're running "Rocky Jordan" right now, but we're taking a break for December.
	👻 9:13pm Austin Rich: Candy has a crush on this Ray Mallard, but I don't think he's very good for her. He's a cop, first off. And he's sort of dim. Candy needs someone who can keep up with her.
	9:14pm Maulydaft: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:10 That's horrible! :(
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:10 That's awful! One of the many things that dogs can't eat. I'm so sorry.
	9:14pm Maulydaft: ↳ Austin Rich @9:11 I love it!
	👻 9:15pm Austin Rich: I think that explosion SFX is better in this improved version.
	9:15pm Maulydaft: ↳ Austin Rich @9:13 Yeah and they make us hate him more because apparently the series ends when she marries the dude! (big eye roll)
	👻 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Maulydaft @9:15 Yeah, she should have ditched him and taken on a new apprentice. That's how I would have ended it.
	9:17pm Mr Fab: Oh man, I missed Candy Matson! Would love more, but this actress is perfect. You would really need someone who has the dry humor delivery.
	9:18pm Asheville Jon: howdy everyone not feeling super chatty tonight, so i'm just gonna do the usual lurking thing. have a great evening
	👻 9:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:17 Totally! How would you find someone to do her voice?
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Asheville Jon @9:18 No problem. Lurk away! Enjoy the show, too.
	9:21pm Charles: Ready for Candy
	👻 9:21pm Austin Rich: One thing I remember from when I was a kid, you would see a lot of re-runs around December. It's a good chance to run the best old things you could find. So that was my thinking here.
	👻 9:21pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:21 Charles! Nice to see you in the chat.
	9:22pm Mr Fab: Little boy on Rembrandt’s lap..?
	👻 9:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:22 Rembrandt seems fairly smitten with Diogenes Murphey, so I think the kids are safe.
	👻 9:24pm Austin Rich: Candy holds grudges, and she's not afraid to be mean or rude if she needs to be. I sort of love her for that.
	👻 9:27pm Austin Rich: This ending is a little silly. They already have enough evidence, but they want a "voluntary" confession. Certainly, confessions are great, but they already have the evidence. This seems a little showy, and could go wrong if she isn't careful.
	9:27pm asheville jon: Get him MALLARD, he' DUCKING 😂🤣
	👻 9:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ asheville jon @9:27 Ha!
	9:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @9:27 It’s so funny in these old shows how they always admit that they are guilty: ”Sure, I did it! And I’d do it again! Let me tell you why…” Needless to say, not exactly what today’s criminals do…
	👻 9:30pm Austin Rich: As could often be the case with Candy Matson, this show gets a little grim at the end. I appreciate that Candy's adventures aren't really "toned down" because of the lead. They could have easily made this show a lot "lighter," but they keep the tone about what you would expect for a detective show of the era.
	👻 9:31pm Austin Rich: "Christmas Sock"? Oh dear...
	9:33pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:31 Don't you mean "deer"?
	👻 9:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:33 Ha!
	9:37pm Charles: I want a show where the main players are unavailable so Rembrandt, Suzie (Box 13) and King Moses (Bold Venture) solve crimes together. Hope I remembered the names right.
	👻 9:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:37 I would totally listen to that show! Oh, damn... time to write some fanfic...
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: It has never occurred to me to visit a Mission for Christmas. Is this is a think that people used to do?
	9:39pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:37 Indeed. Fabric is cool. Last radio related fix I did was a Frontier Gentleman crossover
	👻 9:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:37 Rembrandt and Suzie are friends, they get drinks and gossip about their various cases. They meet up to see King Moses play at the local club, and between sets they chew the fat and work on cases...
	9:40pm Imaginos: Fanfic
	9:42pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:40 King Moses becomes a seer and uses his musical talent to help with the investigation
	👻 9:42pm Austin Rich: G. K. Chesterton had a "man of faith" detective character, Father Brown. I wonder if this is the Candy Matson "nod" to Father Brown?
	9:43pm Imaginos: Should Eugor join the club?
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:42 He has proved that he knows all that has happened even if he wasn't here, and can turn it into a song.
	👻 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:43 Eugor might be some sort of Supernatural foe they need to face off against. He keeps trying to get them to come and stay with him in the spirit world.
	9:47pm Imaginos: Getting sleepy
	👻 9:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:47 I understand. Sleep well!
	9:48pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:48 See you tomorrow
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: "Los Ang-les."
	👻 9:52pm Austin Rich: As is often the case with these "holiday" episodes, there's not so much "holiday" as there is "noir." Certainly these are a little more holiday than usual, but it's not like the story for this episode has a story that relates to the holiday. It's merely the time of year.
	👻 9:54pm Austin Rich: "That's a new one. Lady cop." In other episodes, bartenders give Candy more and/or less of a hassle, regarding her occupation, clothes, and the ways she talks. This guy was downright nice, by some standards of this show.
	👻 10:01pm Austin Rich: The message about "killing kids" has a dual meaning, with the Korean War in effect at the time this story aired / was broadcast.
	10:08pm Webhamster Henry: Firesign's Future Fair has excellent sound design!
	👻 10:09pm Heather Z: I'm tuned in and enjoying some Christmas Candy, for sure!
	10:12pm Webhamster Henry: There's a whole bunch of pretty obscure Firesign material popping up on bandcamp!
	👻 10:15pm Heather Z: Oh no! Hope you feel oodles better soon! I missed X here in September, alas. It was a work night. Sigh.
	10:19pm Mr Fab: I haven’t seen X since they started releasing albums of new music. They just played their oldies for years. Would be curious to hear if they play their latest, as well as their standards.
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:19 I hear it's a mix of some new songs and old faves. Those new albums are pretty damn good if you ask me. They had a small "lame" period in the 90's when Billy Zoom was gone, but that full band is just unbeatable on stage.
	👻 10:22pm Austin Rich: I don't know much about Margaret Whiting, but her voice! It's so good. I did some remastering on this episode, to make it sound a little better than the usual Christmas Seals episodes. Her voice deserves it.
	👻 10:24pm Austin Rich: I'm in my 40's, and I can't imagine dating a 23 year old.
	👻 10:24pm Austin Rich: Maybe a 23 year old bottle of bourbon, but I'm not sure you could call that, "dating."
	👻 10:30pm Austin Rich: The American Lung Association still sells Christmas Seals every year.
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: "One Dowager, slightly boozy."
	👻 10:37pm Heather Z: Girls weekend at the dude ranch! I'm in!
	👻 10:38pm Austin Rich: Rembrant is a photographer, an ex-alcoholic who has since cleaned up, and takes on other jobs here and there when he can. Like many artists: he's always broke, too.
	10:38pm wenzo: Yelloo
	👻 10:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @10:38 Wenzo! Nice to see you in the Digital Salon.
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: I believe Roy Acuff is who they are talking about: en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: This scene in the movie theater is pretty hilarious.
	10:41pm wenzo: Hollywood was disturbingly attached to the idea of 20+ year age gap dating back then.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: Mallard is a big fan of cowboy pictures, and she suffers through many of them for Mallard. So the idea that she wanted to go to a dude ranch is sort of odd... but certainly, she'll do anything for Rembrandt.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @10:41 In some movies: 20 year gap is where you start.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: Candy often gets angry pretty easily. I do appreciate that Candy has some negative personality traits too. We all do. Sometimes, I get angry too easily, too. I get it, Candy.
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: "Must have been two other cowboys." He assumes it takes two Hollywood cowpokes to do what he does.
	👻 10:47pm Austin Rich: "One painkiller, coming up."
	👻 10:48pm Austin Rich: The Duchess assumes that Candy is an actress. While she was usually only on the radio in this era, years later, Natalie Masters would have a bit of a Hollywood film career.
	👻 10:50pm Austin Rich: "The back 60..." My grandmother would always talk about having been delayed working, "in the back 40," a phrase she picked up as a young farmgirl.
	10:53pm wenzo: It’s a little hard to imagine Angry Austin Rich haha… I’m not doubting you it’s just that your on air personality is so pleasant and reasonable!
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @10:53 I'm sure it's self-perception. I feel like I get angry all the time. But I also have access to my every passing thought, which might sway the results.
	👻 10:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:48 I looked up her up on IMDb. When in her 50s, she appeared in “Rosemary’s Baby”. Her uncredited bit part is listed as “Young Woman”.
	10:57pm wenzo: I get angry a lot but I’m guessing it doesn’t show to most people… hard to say…
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: You can tell that "Jeff" is not really a guitar player.
	👻 11:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:57 I guess she looked young for her age? Nice to see you in the Digital Salon!
	👻 11:02pm Austin Rich: We're about to wrap up. Thanks everyone! See ya next time.
	11:02pm wenzo: Thanks AR
	👻 11:02pm Heather Z: Quicksand!! As the memes say, less of a concern than I was led to believe it would be when I was a kid. Thanks for a fun show, Austin, and have a great rest of your day or night, everyone!
	👻 11:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:02 Yes, quicksand is not real. But certainly, a weird muddy patch would make a good place to bury someone, even if "quicksand" is not real.
	11:05pm wenzo: Did she just say hitting from behind…
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @11:05 Ahem...
	11:06pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks, Dimestore Staff!
	👻 11:15pm WR: Thank you, Austin!

	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: I believe Roy Acuff is who they are talking about: en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: This scene in the movie theater is pretty hilarious.
	10:41pm wenzo: Hollywood was disturbingly attached to the idea of 20+ year age gap dating back then.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: Mallard is a big fan of cowboy pictures, and she suffers through many of them for Mallard. So the idea that she wanted to go to a dude ranch is sort of odd... but certainly, she'll do anything for Rembrandt.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @10:41 In some movies: 20 year gap is where you start.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: Candy often gets angry pretty easily. I do appreciate that Candy has some negative personality traits too. We all do. Sometimes, I get angry too easily, too. I get it, Candy.
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: "Must have been two other cowboys." He assumes it takes two Hollywood cowpokes to do what he does.
	👻 10:47pm Austin Rich: "One painkiller, coming up."
	👻 10:48pm Austin Rich: The Duchess assumes that Candy is an actress. While she was usually only on the radio in this era, years later, Natalie Masters would have a bit of a Hollywood film career.
	👻 10:50pm Austin Rich: "The back 60..." My grandmother would always talk about having been delayed working, "in the back 40," a phrase she picked up as a young farmgirl.
	10:53pm wenzo: It’s a little hard to imagine Angry Austin Rich haha… I’m not doubting you it’s just that your on air personality is so pleasant and reasonable!
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @10:53 I'm sure it's self-perception. I feel like I get angry all the time. But I also have access to my every passing thought, which might sway the results.
	👻 10:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:48 I looked up her up on IMDb. When in her 50s, she appeared in “Rosemary’s Baby”. Her uncredited bit part is listed as “Young Woman”.
	10:57pm wenzo: I get angry a lot but I’m guessing it doesn’t show to most people… hard to say…
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: You can tell that "Jeff" is not really a guitar player.
	👻 11:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:57 I guess she looked young for her age? Nice to see you in the Digital Salon!
	👻 11:02pm Austin Rich: We're about to wrap up. Thanks everyone! See ya next time.
	11:02pm wenzo: Thanks AR
	👻 11:02pm Heather Z: Quicksand!! As the memes say, less of a concern than I was led to believe it would be when I was a kid. Thanks for a fun show, Austin, and have a great rest of your day or night, everyone!
	👻 11:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:02 Yes, quicksand is not real. But certainly, a weird muddy patch would make a good place to bury someone, even if "quicksand" is not real.
	11:05pm wenzo: Did she just say hitting from behind…
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @11:05 Ahem...
	11:06pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks, Dimestore Staff!
	👻 11:15pm WR: Thank you, Austin!
