Pre-paration. Commendable.

Lolabelle Pancake:

Hello, G — you are quite an early bird! Courtney is halfway thru a plushed-to-the-scuppers weekend and hasn't even begun putting together Tuesday's program. As a regular listener you know that Courtney's show prep consists of three yawns and a pack of Luckies.

Where am I?

I don't know, Davee. Have you discovered your whereabouts yet? When the Codger's listeners get lost, we send out an Amberol Alert.

Back early again. But she who must obeyed made a dinner reservation for 6:30, leaving early...

Me and my time zones. Too much traveling. I mean, I'll be back after 7pm ET...

Two hours? Wow, he'll be super plushed by the end.

The second column of the Gargle is headlined in Hebrew, isn't it?
Avatar 6:53pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Yes, Robert. In Hebrew it says, "Grampy's Losing Rival Is Kinda Bughouse."

Euneeda S. Bodenheim:

I hate it when he impugns the family name. Don't tar us all with the same brush!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:13pm

shades of the commercial with the second mr. french.
  7:13pm
Listener Robert:

If he hits the floor, is that a poetry slam?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:14pm
ultradamno:

That is indeed some purty talkin'
Avatar 7:17pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Euneeda, as Gus and Courtney explain it, everyone in the Bodenheim family gets tarred with their own brush.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:18pm
PigeonsAndRust:

I think most of the folks on here will appreciate that I accidentally and quite literally tarred and feathered myself today. Alao, I pulled a copy of 'Doin' Things' out of the bottom of chicken coop in Greene County last year-- black label Okeh electric
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:19pm
rrg:

That second Mr. French was John Williams, a great and prolific English actor. He was ill-used by that commercial. After he died they continued to use it and got someone to badly imitate his English accent to say that the records now cost $24.95 instead of $19.95.

Euneeda S. Bodenheim:

I keep my brushes clean, thank you very much!
Avatar 7:20pm

All Bodenheim brushes are manufactured by J.G. Paine & Sons.

Lionel Hampton & His Orchestra performed at Sascha Bodenheim's bar mitzvah reception.

This is great! I'm always looking for new versions of "Get out and get under the moon" Thanks!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:36pm
PigeonsAndRust:

Looks like she created at least three matrices of that song for Brunswick. I wonder, could it be the same famous English actress?
  7:37pm
Listener Robert:

Tom, who was Lionel Hampton there to see?
Avatar 7:39pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

At the bar mitzvah, Lionel announced that they were playing "Hamanagila."

In Rockland County, I think in Pearl River, there used to be a dentist named Dr. Mengele. He was Jewish too.

Lionel Hampton was part of the Stan Lee extravaganza held there in 1972

Interesting...I wonder how they doubled Betty Boop's voice before magnetic tape was in use!

Was he nick named the "White Angel"?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:53pm

Louis J, huge star of 40s music. Big influence on Ray Charles and so many others.

White Angel is a brand of toilet paper, I believe.
