Show Notes

Buna Ziua, Romania! Welcome to Norm Nathan’s Vault of Silliness!

I would also like to note that we have surpassed 70 subscribers on YouTube.

Let’s keep it going and thank you just so darn much.

A cassette from October 9th, 1993 jumped off the shelves for our episode today which I have titled: Storytime with Uncle Norm as Norm adds some great details to some of our birthdays.

However, before we get to the DBG we have a taste of the 2am hour to entertain us. 

It begins with a very foggy traffic report from Jack Harte and some Accuweather from Dave Ryan.

We hear from Don who’s 300 miles north of Toronto in Sudbury Ontario, Canada where it’s 28 degrees and snowing.

The caller and Norm get a bit political. Amazingly, it’s a bit telling of the times we are living in now.

Jane on a car phone who’s very thankful for Norm’s show on her drive home from work

And then we have Allison in Saugus who has some sage advice on how to treat a genius. This one is another shining example of Norm’s wit.

And now it’s DBG time!

It starts with some player introductions:

Rosemarie from Wellesley

The debut performance of Sid Whittaker!

But the tape runs out and switches sides. When it starts again, we hear Norm chortling about something. Probably about the revolving door of producers he’s had. Hearing is laugh just makes me smile.

We continue with player intros:

I’m in studio with Mike Epstein

And Jack Harte (who has an astounding game)

 

Bdays are a mixed bag from the upcoming week:

10/9

Jackson Browne

10/12

Susan Anton

Chris Wallace

10/13

Marie Osmond

Margaret Thatcher

Art Garfunkel

10/14

Everett Coop

Roger Moore

 

Norm talks about taking piano lessons again, the Ol’ Drunken Pianist…On Tour Now. Stick around for those dates!

And boy do we get to hear some Commercials!

Grab a pen and paper to jot down these classics:

Marezine – twice – Linda Kern from Lahaina, HI & Hazel Dew from Houston, TX

Ovaltine – twice

AutoMax Classified TV program on WLVI TV 56

WBZ Traffic on the 3’s Promo

Campers Rental Sales and Camp America…The RV Mile

Boston MoS – The Dinosaurs of Jurassic Park

Percy’s Electronics – twice

WBZ 24 Hour Traffic Network

42nd St at the Colonial Theater

Baby Gold Bond – twice – Gwendolyn Jones from Ft. Lauderdale, FL &

Louise Fallon of Brooklyn, NY

The Boat Show at the Bayside Expo Center

Kid Company Promo

Wittnauer Watches

Bill Marlowe for Tommy Floramo’s!

Regular Gold Bond – Michael Cook of Grand Prairie, TX tells us all about his skin problem

And we close with Scotch Pine Farm voiced by Bob Raleigh. It’s only a partial commercial because the tape ran out. I hope we have the full version somewhere because what we hear is funny.
