Show Notes

The Dumb Birthday Game-a-palooza continues this week with a recording from May 22nd, 1993.

I have titled this one: “Two’s Company but Eight’s a Crowd” because we have amassed a panel of EIGHT Players:

How many bdays will we be able to get to with that many people? Just you want and see.

We have Roy, who’s working construction in Bedford but is from Lawrence and taking an unauthorized break to play the game.

Andy from Topsfield

‘Calendar’ Bill in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada

Evelyn in London, Ont

Hazel from Hamilton, Ont

I’m producing and playing in-studio and had been recently vetted by Ch. 4’s investigative Eye Team

Jack Harte the WBZ Traffic Person

And Keith Shields, (no relation to Brooke) whom I’m training, playing in-studio and is revealed to be a management spy.

We all have a good laugh about the windfall we receive every week in our paychecks from Westinghouse.

Norm possibly can’t afford the job because it costs him too much!

But the lure or reaching 38 states and parts of Canada with the 50,000w clear channel signal of the nation’s first commercial radio station…well, that should be payment enough.

Bdays:

Charles Aznavour

Peter Nero

Richard Benjamin 

Paul Winfield

Judith Crist

We have time for some dates in history as well:

Mr. Rogers Neighborhood premiered on PBS in what year?

And in what year was the first life insurance policy issued in the U.S.?

 

We are informed that Norm’s 26 year-old horse, Sunflower, was entered into a horse show that weekend. 

A caller seems very interested in her so Norm tries to do some matchmaking.

We learn that there were some mystery players participating in the game from a remote location: Saul, Brett, Bartholomew, Sidney, Gladys, and Shirley.

I open up and you get a glimpse in to my tv-less world.

We get a brand-new phrase to embroider on our doilies

A learned quote from Norm’s HGPG and a pun from Norm that, while putting this show together, had me laughing hard here at the Norch Studio and FuzzyWuzzyProductions.

And we close with a commercial for Marezine.

Episode 87, “Two’s Company but Eight’s a Crowd,” begins in 3, 2 annnnnnd 1.
