[00:00:00] Speaker A: There's still time to keep voting for Norm Nathan's Vault of Silliness to win the Listener's Choice award at the inaugural Podcast Tonight Awards. The link to do so is below and in the bio. The winners will be announced on February 28. I do thank you. We gots ourselves a jumping done birthday game from February 29, 1992, which shall be titled Over Talking Overtalkers. The players Peter from bu, Paul and Stoughton, Jim from Springfield, Debbie and Wellesley. I'm producing and playing on the phone from Master Control and Jack Harden. Traffic. I guess there were no birthdays worth mentioning for February 29th. So Norm jumps to March 3rd for Rhea Perlman. Then we go to March 4th for Paula Prentiss, March 5th for Dean Stockwell. March 6th for Ed McMahon and Rob Reiner. And then we get a date in history. Or should I say date dates in history. Gone with the win won eight Oscars on February 29th of what year and in what year did the first Playboy Club open in Chicago? And we get some nice commercials here. We get this super long gold barn. Just a torturous commercial. It should have come with a warning because these were gross. We've got William Sander from South Bend, Indiana, and Sharon Daugherty of Reading, Pennsylvania, and Sand Sandra Harrod of Alvin, Texas. There's a WBZ call for action promo for Ask the Tax Expert and Wachusett Mountain. We also get to enjoy some post game fun. Norm reads the AccuWeather forecast from Roy Gallant. We take some calls, Mary from Rhode island, then Dan in Rhode Island. Norm comes back with some sports and lottery. We get a new sounder for top of the hour and it's back to Norm with traffic. Or should I say laughic. Holy cow, this one's a good one. There's a just basic old fashioned dry show intro and then we close it with calls from Helen in Boston and Alan Framingham. Episode 276. Oh, that's the spirit. Over talking over talkers babbles its way to your ears in 3, 2 and 1. [00:02:17] Speaker B: Birthday game. [00:02:21] Speaker C: You don't need skill. You don't have to be a brain. You just call Norm to play the dumb Birthday Game. [00:02:28] Speaker D: Play the dumb, dumb birthday game. [00:02:35] Speaker E: Okay, boys and girls, it is time to play the Dumb Birthday Game where we guess the ages of people born not just on this day, but during the coming week. And we'll get some other things too, because it looks like a swell game that we're gonna play. Peter is with us from Boston University. Hi, Peter. [00:02:52] Speaker D: How you doing, Norm? [00:02:53] Speaker E: Okay. All set to go. Are you, big guy? [00:02:55] Speaker D: Ready? I've been waiting for three weeks. You never call me back. [00:02:58] Speaker E: Oh, we were supposed to call you back three weeks ago. [00:03:00] Speaker D: Oh, four, three. Every week. I'm really hurt, but it's okay. [00:03:03] Speaker E: Oh, it's okay. You know what? [00:03:05] Speaker D: It's okay, because I've been, you know, sitting here listening to it, and just. I'm sitting with my gold bonds and I'm brought. But I must say to Brian, who's listening in his room about six doors down from mine, I got on, Brian. Okay. [00:03:19] Speaker E: Yeah, same on you, Brian. You didn't get on. He got on. And here's Paul, who's in Stoughton. Hi, Paul. [00:03:25] Speaker D: Good morning. [00:03:26] Speaker E: Hey, we talked just a little while ago. [00:03:28] Speaker D: Norm. Yes. If I can't afford a daisy a day, can I give a weed a week? [00:03:31] Speaker E: Yes, you can. [00:03:32] Speaker D: Thank you. [00:03:33] Speaker E: Yes, you can. It's a rule we just made up. And I hope you'll keep up that wild, ribald humor all through the game. Incessantly. Okay. We have Jim, who's out in Springfield. Jim is. I'm a big fan of Jim's. [00:03:46] Speaker B: Oh, you are? [00:03:47] Speaker E: Yeah, I am. We kept you waiting one time. I recall that. And we've been trying to make it up to you since. And I'll make it up to you to my dying day. [00:03:53] Speaker F: I know. [00:03:54] Speaker B: Then I better keep my mouth shut because I wanted to say something and I'll get myself in trouble with you. [00:04:00] Speaker E: If you say something. [00:04:01] Speaker B: Yeah, I was going to say something about a couple of the screwball callers, but I'll keep calling quiet. [00:04:08] Speaker E: You're a good person, Paul, because they. Jim rather. They may have been relations of mine. And you wouldn't want to insult them. I might have been a cousin. Never. You're a good person. Just for that, we'll talk to Debbie, who's in Wellesley. Hi, Debbie. [00:04:21] Speaker D: Hi. [00:04:22] Speaker E: Is this your first crack at this?

[00:04:46] Speaker F: Me? [00:04:47] Speaker G: Yeah. [00:04:48] Speaker D: Wait, I'm the closest to Debbie's age here. [00:04:50] Speaker B: I'm at BU also. [00:04:51] Speaker E: No, I know Peter. Peter would be close to Debbie. Says she's 21. Jimmy, you're older Than that. Are you not. [00:04:56] Speaker B: Yes, I'm 29. [00:04:57] Speaker E: Oh, that's not. [00:04:58] Speaker D: I win.

[00:05:31] Speaker E: The answer is yes to all of those questions. Jim is going to talk through this entire thing. I think we made a mistake becoming friends with him. We should have been enemies like we were a week or two ago. [00:05:41] Speaker D: I knew it was going to happen. [00:05:42] Speaker E: Yeah, I knew that. I know, I know. Just give up a little bit, Jim. And he's going nuts. Okay. I tell you the truth, actually, Today being the 29th of February, there aren't too many people who are born on this date. Being a leap. [00:05:59] Speaker D: Well, let's leap right over that. [00:06:01] Speaker E: Pardon me? [00:06:01] Speaker D: I said I'd sleep right over that. [00:06:03] Speaker E: Oh, yes, yes. Let's leap right over that. [00:06:06] Speaker H: Sounds like a jumping crowd. [00:06:09] Speaker E: Jack, I have a terrible feeling about this whole thing today. I'd like to play Benny Goodman Sing Sing Sing instead. Okay. [00:06:18] Speaker H: The Prison Story. [00:06:20] Speaker B: Oh, Norm, I heard a song and I thought of you. It was a great song. Yes, I think it's called Midnight Romp or Midnight Jump or something like that. [00:06:29] Speaker E: How about Midnight Blue. [00:06:33] Speaker D: Ice House in. [00:06:33] Speaker E: 1984 by Count Basie. [00:06:35] Speaker B: No, Herb Albert. Midnight Romp or Midnight Jump? [00:06:38] Speaker E: Oh, I don't know. I don't know that one at all.

[00:09:09] Speaker D: Can you hum a few bars? [00:09:10] Speaker E: Was that with. And that was with Clint Eastwood. I never did see that movie. [00:09:16] Speaker D: Really? [00:09:16] Speaker E: He was haunted by somebody who kept calling him and driving him nuts, as I recall. Was that Paul Apprentice? That was his father in law. [00:09:26] Speaker H: I think it was for some reason. [00:09:28] Speaker E: Okay, let's start with you. [00:09:30] Speaker D: Fatal Attraction. That movie was like. [00:09:32] Speaker E: Yeah, in a way that probably was. So, Jack Hart, what do you think? How old will Paul Apprentice be? Oh, 47. 47. [00:09:48] Speaker D: Okay, Tony, 47 sounds good. [00:09:53] Speaker E: Are you guys gonna do this all the way? [00:09:54] Speaker D: I have no idea. [00:09:55] Speaker E: Okay. And what do you think? Debbie don't fix it. You know who. Who Paula Prentice is, Debbie? [00:10:00] Speaker A: No. [00:10:01] Speaker D: Neither do I. [00:10:02] Speaker E: Okay, Take a shot anyway. What the heck. [00:10:07] Speaker F: 40. 46. [00:10:09] Speaker E: I'm sorry, how much? [00:10:10] Speaker D: 46. [00:10:11] Speaker E: 46. Okay. What do you think, Jim? [00:10:15] Speaker B: What did Debbie say? 46. [00:10:18] Speaker E: What do you say? [00:10:19] Speaker B: What Debbie says. [00:10:23] Speaker D: What a play he's trying to make. Jim does Debbie. [00:10:27] Speaker E: Isn't that pretty obvious, huh? Yeah. [00:10:31] Speaker D: Talking about sucking up to someone. [00:10:33] Speaker E: This is something. Paul, what do you say? [00:10:36] Speaker D: I think 47 sounds good. [00:10:38] Speaker B: Also. [00:10:38] Speaker E: 47 also. Okay. And what do you think, Peter? [00:10:41] Speaker D: 49. [00:10:43] Speaker E: 49 sounds like he's got an in. [00:10:46] Speaker D: Not at all. You all took low numbers. I figured that was the one. [00:10:48] Speaker F: All right. All right. [00:10:50] Speaker E: And that was a wise move. And I'll explain to you why in just a moment. But meantime, let's check and see how old she actually is. Paul Apprentice. Paul Apprentice actually is 53. Oh, yeah. So the fact that you went up to 49. Peter was very wise on your part because you were the closest. And that means you got two out of two. Son of a. Brian. Do you hear that, Brian? He not only got out, but he's doing great. [00:11:18] Speaker B: We tried, Debbie. We tried. [00:11:21] Speaker E: Okay, and on Thursday, March 5, will be the birthday of Dean Stockwell, the actor. You know Dean Stockwell? [00:11:30] Speaker D: Quantum Leap. [00:11:31] Speaker E: Quantum Leap. He's been in a number of movies. An excellent actor. I never trusted a guy with a name. Dean Stockwell. I thought if you got a name like that, you got to be a rotten actor. Who's he married to? It just sounds like he's married to Loisa Vrilla. I have no idea who he's married to. Okay, Dean Stockwell. Anyway, let's start with you, Jim. How old will Dean Stockwell be next Thursday? [00:11:57] Speaker B: 54. [00:11:58] Speaker E: 54. Okay. And Peter, what do you say? [00:12:06] Speaker D: 51. [00:12:09] Speaker E: And Debbie? [00:12:14] Speaker F: 51. [00:12:15] Speaker E: 51. Also Debbie. [00:12:18] Speaker D: College stick together. [00:12:21] Speaker B: They have to. [00:12:22] Speaker E: Are you in college, Debbie? [00:12:23] Speaker D: Pail of cold water will separate them. [00:12:28] Speaker E: You're not. You're not in college, Is that right? [00:12:29] Speaker F: No, I just work. [00:12:30] Speaker D: Oh, I heard Wesley. [00:12:31] Speaker E: You just worked. That's okay. [00:12:33] Speaker B: Nothing wrong with that, honey. [00:12:34] Speaker E: No, that's not that. No. A lot of us. A lot of us have forced into that kind of slavery. Tony, what do you say? How old is. How old will Dean Stockwell be? [00:12:44] Speaker D: You know how he got that last name? [00:12:46] Speaker E: No. [00:12:46] Speaker D: A long time ago when he used to stock. There we go. [00:12:49] Speaker F: He used to. [00:12:50] Speaker D: Stockwell. [00:12:51] Speaker E: Oh. [00:12:55] Speaker D: 55. [00:12:56] Speaker E: Wow. I'm sorry. How much. How much did you say? [00:12:59] Speaker D: 55. [00:13:00] Speaker E: 55. And, Paul, what do you say? Besides probably a bad. [00:13:05] Speaker D: What is 55? [00:13:09] Speaker E: What is 55? [00:13:10] Speaker D: Number below 56. I was thinking of one number above 54, but that's okay. So I get the extra credit. I put in the form of a question. [00:13:19] Speaker E: Holy. Holy Mac. [00:13:20] Speaker D: Geez. [00:13:21] Speaker E: This is the longest game I've ever played. [00:13:24] Speaker H: How old. [00:13:24] Speaker E: How old will Dana Dean Stockwell be on Thursday? How old would you say, Paul? [00:13:31] Speaker D: 55. [00:13:32] Speaker E: 55. Okay. And Jack, what do you say? [00:13:36] Speaker H: Do you know? [00:13:37] Speaker E: In fact, he. [00:13:37] Speaker H: He stocked so well that they called him the Dean. [00:13:42] Speaker F: Oh. [00:13:46] Speaker D: We gotta explain that to Peter at bu. [00:13:50] Speaker B: No, explaining would do it justice for him. [00:13:53] Speaker E: He. He's 50. 54. 58. 58. [00:14:01] Speaker I: Suddenly he's lost your vision. [00:14:03] Speaker H: What's a leap year? [00:14:06] Speaker E: Okay, let's check the actual age of Dean Stockwell. And it's 56. So that means Paul and Tony both came the closest. They said 55. [00:14:25] Speaker D: All right. [00:14:26] Speaker E: Okay, so that's very good. So so far, I got. Peter's got two, two out of three, which is good. Paul. [00:14:31] Speaker D: Thank you. [00:14:32] Speaker E: And Jack both have one, and Tony also has two. [00:14:35] Speaker B: Thanks, Norm. What was my age for Dean? [00:14:37] Speaker E: So this is Jim, eh? [00:14:40] Speaker B: Yes. [00:14:41] Speaker E: You said 54, so you weren't that far off. But 55 was a little bit closer to 56, the way I look at it. [00:14:48] Speaker B: I agree. [00:14:49] Speaker E: Okay, next Friday, the what does Debbie have for score? [00:14:52] Speaker D: Excuse me? [00:14:53] Speaker E: Debbie. Debbie, Debbie. Yeah, Debbie hasn't scored as yet, if you pardon the expression. [00:15:00] Speaker B: Debbie, I'll give you one of my points, okay? I don't have any to give, but I'll give you one. [00:15:07] Speaker E: Because Jim hasn't scored either. So Jim and Debbie are both. Are both. [00:15:13] Speaker D: They're both desperately trying to score. [00:15:17] Speaker E: Okay, how about next Friday, the 6th of March will be the birthday of Ed McMahon? Ed McMahon, anybody? I don't know. Do you watch that Sunday afternoon thing he does the. What is that? [00:15:32] Speaker D: Star Search. [00:15:33] Speaker E: Oh, Star Search, yeah. Have you noticed, for example, the dancers act more like acrobats than dancers and they go nuts. And it's kind of like the faster you. The faster you move around, the better chance you have of winning. And it's so totally lacking in grace or any kind of style or anything that it's really crummy. It's awful stuff. [00:15:55] Speaker D: No, it's funny you should mention him. Very similar to this show. [00:15:58] Speaker E: Why don't you let somebody finish a sentence, Paul? You see, they're just about to hit the punchline and you talk, we miss it, see, then I have to ask him to repeat it. And it just takes up a lot of silly time, you know? And I know you don't mean to do that. I don't know who's just speaking, but. Did you have a funny punchline? [00:16:16] Speaker D: I had a funny punchline. [00:16:17] Speaker E: Okay. [00:16:17] Speaker D: It's just he's getting a divorce. [00:16:21] Speaker E: I guess. I guess it's the. It's the proximity to Johnny Carson that forces a person into that kind of mental state. [00:16:28] Speaker D: Well, whatever it was, his wife's attorney just sent him a letter that said, Ed McMahon, you may have already lost $10 million. [00:16:34] Speaker E: You may have already lost a wife that wasn't abysmal. [00:16:37] Speaker B: Just like show Norm. [00:16:39] Speaker D: Yes, my wife does a great impression of Ed McMahon. Can I get my impression. Can I get my impression about my wife doing Ed McMahon? [00:16:47] Speaker E: Go ahead. [00:16:49] Speaker D: Yes. [00:16:52] Speaker E: Yeah, I see, huh? Yeah, I'm glad we went along with that one, huh? [00:17:01] Speaker D: I'm working on it. [00:17:01] Speaker E: Can you imagine the emptiness, the void if we hadn't Heard that. Okay. Okay. That's right. Yeah. In fact, a minus 1.5. A couple of people who are thinking of voting for you anyway. Ed McMahon. Let's see. Let's start with you, Peter. How old would you say he is? [00:17:20] Speaker D: Ed McMahon. [00:17:21] Speaker E: How will be on Friday the 6th. March 6th. [00:17:24] Speaker D: Friday, March 6th. Ed McMahon will be. My hamster just told me 68. [00:17:32] Speaker E: 60. Your hamster just told you that? [00:17:34] Speaker D: Yes. [00:17:34] Speaker E: Okay. [00:17:35] Speaker D: Of course he's not real because this is a dorm, but it's a plastic hamster. It sits on my stereo speaker. [00:17:41] Speaker E: Okay. Paul, what do you say? [00:17:44] Speaker I: 62. [00:17:47] Speaker E: That sounded like Wolfie. [00:17:51] Speaker D: I'm sorry. [00:17:51] Speaker E: That was the impression of my wife doing you. [00:17:54] Speaker D: Doing me. Right. [00:17:55] Speaker E: I see. Jim, what do you think? How old is Ed McMahon? How old will he be? [00:18:01] Speaker B: I think he will be 69. [00:18:05] Speaker E: 69. Okay. And Debbie, what do you say? [00:18:11] Speaker F: 61. [00:18:12] Speaker E: 69 also, eh. [00:18:14] Speaker D: 61. [00:18:15] Speaker E: 61. Okay, 61. And Tony? [00:18:19] Speaker D: 62. [00:18:21] Speaker E: And Jack? 68. 68. Okay. What's the same as Peter said? [00:18:31] Speaker F: Did I say that? [00:18:32] Speaker E: Yeah, Peter said 68. [00:18:33] Speaker B: Your hamster. [00:18:34] Speaker D: Oh, my hamster said. [00:18:34] Speaker E: That's right. [00:18:36] Speaker D: I wasn't paying attention. Wake up. [00:18:38] Speaker E: Okay, let's check the actual age of Ed McMahon. That's great. Live from Hollywood is. Here's Paul talking right through the theme, Talking through the first five commercials, talking through every guest, talking through the sign off to station breaks and all the way through the David Letterman show. [00:19:10] Speaker G: Through. [00:19:10] Speaker E: NBC News all night. Okay, the actual age of Paul, or maybe even Ed McMahon. Next to March 6th, Ed McMahon will be 69 years old, which is Jim. Jim has got on the scoreboard. That's right. And you guessed it right on the button. [00:19:31] Speaker D: See, Debbie said 61. You thought she said 69. I think when you do that, Norm, I have to catch on it that you're giving it away when you do that. [00:19:39] Speaker E: No, no, I thought. I thought Debbie did say 69. [00:19:42] Speaker B: I thought you were whispering. [00:19:44] Speaker F: I should have. I don't know what happened this time. [00:19:47] Speaker D: I have such a stupid rodent. [00:19:51] Speaker E: Look at my children. They're all getting along so nicely. Well, you said, oh, 69. No, I mean for getting it right on the button, right? No, actually, no. No, I'd say no. No, no. Definitely no. Never. [00:20:06] Speaker D: No, this isn't double. [00:20:08] Speaker E: Okay. Also no, this is not March. March 6th. Also next Friday also is the birthday of Rob Reiner. Rob Reiner. I don't think we have to define who Rob Reiner is, of course, from all in the Family and has done directing and all kinds of stuff. Mostly directing since, including a funny movie on that rock group called Spinal Tap. Yeah, that was funny. And he's also. He also did Stand By Me when. When Harry Met Sally. [00:20:37] Speaker D: Stand By Me. [00:20:38] Speaker E: Was that his also Misery, too? Was Rob Reiner. Was that his, too? [00:20:44] Speaker D: Yeah, he seems to really pick his movies. [00:20:48] Speaker E: Well, those are great movies, all of them. Oh, that was an excellent movie. I love that one. [00:20:54] Speaker B: That was a real treat. [00:20:56] Speaker E: Let's start with you, Jack. What do you think? How old will Rob Reiner be? [00:21:00] Speaker H: The man who will forever be known, however, with all that greatness, as Meathead. [00:21:05] Speaker E: That's right. And. And Carl Reiner. Who? Carl Reiner, who's also done a tremendous amount of great stuff. His son. [00:21:12] Speaker H: Yes, indeed. [00:21:16] Speaker E: He's 47. 47, okay. And Tony, 46. And Debbie, what do you say? [00:21:27] Speaker F: 46. [00:21:28] Speaker E: 46, Jim. [00:21:32] Speaker B: I don't see. [00:21:33] Speaker D: I just have to say that his. [00:21:36] Speaker B: His bald patch is older than that. [00:21:40] Speaker D: That's the trick. [00:21:40] Speaker E: His hairpiece is older than that. Right. [00:21:42] Speaker B: Oh, that's what I was looking for. Thank you, Norm. [00:21:44] Speaker E: His bald patch. It's an interesting way to phrase it. [00:21:48] Speaker B: All right, so I got a tough audience. What do you want? Okay, give me a 1.5. [00:21:54] Speaker E: Right. [00:21:55] Speaker B: I'll say he's. No, 50. 54. [00:22:01] Speaker E: 54. Okay, Paul, what do you say? [00:22:06] Speaker D: I'm afraid I'm intimidated, Norm. Can I speak up now? [00:22:09] Speaker E: You can speak up now. Yeah. No, it's just. You're supposed to just. Yeah, just once. Yeah, well, I was raising my hand. [00:22:14] Speaker D: But no one saw me. Crap. [00:22:18] Speaker E: No, see, no, it's only when somebody else is speaking and they're ready to get to the punchline. Then. Then you have to be quiet. [00:22:24] Speaker D: Oh, I didn't know that. [00:22:25] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah, that's one of the rules. It's posted here in the Teen Canteen. [00:22:28] Speaker D: Let me write that down. [00:22:30] Speaker E: Okay. What do you say? How old is will rob reiner be? [00:22:33] Speaker D: 40. 42. [00:22:35] Speaker E: Okay. And what do you say, Peter? [00:22:38] Speaker D: 51. [00:22:40] Speaker E: That's your guess or the hamster? [00:22:42] Speaker D: No, that was mine. [00:22:43] Speaker F: I. [00:22:43] Speaker D: At the Hampton Street. Forget it. He screwed up the last time. [00:22:46] Speaker E: Okay, okay, let's check the actual age of Rob Reiner and hear what Tony has. [00:22:56] Speaker D: That's obscure. [00:22:58] Speaker E: Wait a minute. Let me think of how this fits in. Now. What is this? The thing? Carl Reiner. Oh, okay. Well, that's close enough. That's right. It's in the family. [00:23:18] Speaker D: See, I thought I was going to get this booming reaction, like, oh, Tony. [00:23:21] Speaker E: What? [00:23:22] Speaker D: I see it. And no one even knew what. [00:23:25] Speaker E: No, this is. No, that was that was a great show too, and an excellent choice. [00:23:29] Speaker D: Did Zazu Pit star in that show? [00:23:31] Speaker E: Yes. [00:23:32] Speaker D: Thank you. [00:23:33] Speaker E: Rob Reiner will be 47. Oh, and so that's. Jack Hyde said it right on the bucket. Okay, so we have a two for Peter and one for Paul. Jim has one and Tony has two and so does Jack. And Debbie is just as cute as a button. [00:23:58] Speaker B: I've already told you the one that I have, I'm giving it to Debbie. So I have zero and debit. [00:24:03] Speaker E: No, you haven't looked at. See, you haven't looked at the rules posted on the walls of the tcat. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Non transferable is correct. Okay, I got a couple other things for you. Neither one is a birthday, but it's. You tell me the year these events happened. [00:24:18] Speaker B: Okay. [00:24:19] Speaker E: Okay. Gone with the Wind called Desperate for things. That's right. And this actually happened on this very date, although it's kind of early, but it happened on February 20th. February 29th. Gone with the Wind won eight Oscars. And can you tell me what year that was that they won eight Oscars? We'll start with you, Peter. What do you say? [00:24:45] Speaker D: I'm trying to think when movies came out 19. I don't know if you laughed at. [00:24:52] Speaker E: No, that's kind of interesting because if it were, you don't think of a whole lot of things happened on February 29th. You don't think of the Academy Awards being held that early. [00:25:04] Speaker D: We only celebrate them every four years. Are you making this up, Norm? [00:25:07] Speaker E: No, no, no. Gone with the Win. Actually, the Academy Awards that year was. Was on February 29th. And so Peter's going to tell me what the big leap forward. Big leap forward. We're doing the leap jokes again. That's very good. Very good. [00:25:23] Speaker B: Not we. [00:25:25] Speaker E: That's right, Jim. Just Jack, rather. [00:25:28] Speaker D: 1930. Okay. I'm saying 1936. [00:25:32] Speaker E: 1936. Okay. No, don't be so self conscious, Peter. [00:25:38] Speaker B: Well, I'm paranoid. [00:25:39] Speaker E: No, that's okay. And what do you think, Paul? [00:25:45] Speaker D: Boy, it really threw me a curve here when we're going off birthdays. If I had known that, I'd have waited for a better day. [00:25:50] Speaker E: Well, you can figure. You can figure. If you can figure the year that Gone with the Wind was made and then the following year it won the Academy Award eight times. [00:25:59] Speaker I: Very good. [00:26:01] Speaker D: 1947. [00:26:04] Speaker E: 1947. Okay. [00:26:07] Speaker B: And Jim, can I interject something? [00:26:10] Speaker E: You can interject. [00:26:11] Speaker B: Okay. Thank you. [00:26:12] Speaker E: Depends on who you interjected into. I didn't mean that to be racist. [00:26:21] Speaker D: Sure you didn't no, I'm. [00:26:22] Speaker B: Shame on you. [00:26:23] Speaker E: Yes. I'm sorry. [00:26:25] Speaker B: Okay. May I interject now? [00:26:26] Speaker E: Interject. Go ahead. [00:26:27] Speaker B: Okay. The other day I was driving home and I was ex. Conjugating. And that's why I want to ask Jack, after this is over, a question about the weather, if I may. [00:26:41] Speaker F: Jack. [00:26:42] Speaker D: About the weather. [00:26:42] Speaker E: Jack. Jack does traffic. He specializes in traffic. [00:26:46] Speaker B: This is somewhat related to traffic with. Through the weather. [00:26:50] Speaker E: I see. Should you slow down when the. When it's cold and the roads are icy? Is it that kind of a connection? [00:26:56] Speaker B: No. [00:26:56] Speaker E: I see. Okay. At the end, I suppose you could. Why don't you tell me what year the con were the one. 1940. Okay. And what do you say, Debbie? [00:27:11] Speaker D: I don't know. [00:27:13] Speaker F: 40, 47. [00:27:15] Speaker E: 1937. Oh, 47. [00:27:19] Speaker D: I can hear it doing it again. [00:27:20] Speaker E: I'm sorry. [00:27:20] Speaker B: That. [00:27:20] Speaker E: Same as Paul. I said that. Tony, what do you say? [00:27:25] Speaker D: Oh, I'd really like to say 1939. [00:27:31] Speaker E: Right? [00:27:32] Speaker D: Yes, I'll say 1940. [00:27:34] Speaker B: But you know, your own record. [00:27:36] Speaker E: You're gonna say 1940? [00:27:37] Speaker D: Yes. [00:27:38] Speaker E: Okay. [00:27:39] Speaker D: Was that the last one you asked? [00:27:42] Speaker E: Pardon me? [00:27:42] Speaker D: Was that the last one you just asked? [00:27:44] Speaker E: No, no. Jack has. Hasn't guessed. [00:27:46] Speaker D: Okay. Strategy only works for the last one. [00:27:48] Speaker E: What do you think, Jack? [00:27:49] Speaker H: Oh, I'd say that was 1940. [00:27:53] Speaker D: 19. I believe it came out in 39. That's why I said. [00:27:56] Speaker H: Yeah. [00:27:58] Speaker E: Okay. It was a Wednesday. What year was that? It's a Wednesday. I believe. Was set. I believe that was set. Yeah. Okay, let's check and see when the Academy Award went eight times to. Okay, the 1940s is right. It did come out. It was movie. Came out 39 and just celebrated its 50th anniversary. That's right. A couple years three years ago. Okay, so. So Jim, Tony and Jack all were right on the bus. [00:28:48] Speaker D: That's funny. You know, I didn't. Didn't even phage me to think about the anniversary video cassette. Obviously, if you could remember when it came out, you could. And you even dated right back in. [00:28:58] Speaker B: A record store that had videos. [00:29:01] Speaker E: That's right. [00:29:01] Speaker D: The heck was that? [00:29:02] Speaker E: That's correct. Did somebody hang up? [00:29:04] Speaker D: No. [00:29:05] Speaker B: Okay. [00:29:05] Speaker D: But I worked in it before the. [00:29:06] Speaker B: Anniversary came up, so you should have anticipated it. [00:29:10] Speaker E: Yeah. Okay. [00:29:11] Speaker D: 20 years later, it came on a new releases list. [00:29:16] Speaker E: Okay, so here's the very last one. Now this is another. Now, I know it's a fun game and you hate to see it come to an end, but you know, just too much of it is. That's right. Neither can I. Okay, this is the First Playboy Club opened in Chicago. [00:29:34] Speaker D: First one Playboy Club. [00:29:36] Speaker E: The Playboy Club. And we had one Playboy Club here in Boston, opened in sort of the same era. Park Square. That's right. And what year was that with the first Playboy Club? And eventually they closed it. When did it close? I'll give you that one. [00:29:54] Speaker D: A couple years ago, right? Wasn't it? [00:29:57] Speaker E: Yes, that's right. It did. The one in Chicago closed all of them down in 1986. I think the one in Boston had closed before that. Anyway, it didn't last too long. Okay, but when did it. When did. When did they open? And let's start with you, Jim. First Playboy Club opened in Chicago, what year? [00:30:14] Speaker B: I remember Park Square. Yeah. You remember the Teddy. I don't know if you remember the Teddy Bear Lounge. [00:30:20] Speaker E: Yes, I do. [00:30:21] Speaker B: You do? It was a. A great place to go. And I'll never forget I walked in there one afternoon. [00:30:27] Speaker E: Could you tell me when the first Playboy Club opened in Chicago? [00:30:30] Speaker B: They turned it into an arcade. Do you remember that? [00:30:33] Speaker E: Yes, I do remember. [00:30:36] Speaker B: 1930. [00:30:37] Speaker F: 19. [00:30:38] Speaker B: The first Playboy Club in Chicago. [00:30:40] Speaker E: Yes. [00:30:41] Speaker B: 1964. [00:30:43] Speaker E: 1964. Are you from around here? [00:30:46] Speaker D: Me? [00:30:46] Speaker E: Yeah. I know you're line is that I know you're in Springfield and the reason I asked that is. [00:30:51] Speaker D: That's a great pickup line. [00:30:57] Speaker E: No, Jim is. Jim, hold on. Will you hold on a minute? Damn. Jim is from Springfield. And I thought you sounded like you were very familiar with every club that ever existed around the parks. Ray area, Boston. I assume that you must have lived in the Boston area at one time. [00:31:13] Speaker D: He knew the Punch bowl. [00:31:14] Speaker B: No, but I. I get around. [00:31:17] Speaker E: Okay. Paul, what do you think? When did the first Playboy Club open in Chicago? [00:31:25] Speaker D: 54. [00:31:26] Speaker E: Okay. And Debbie, what do you say? [00:31:30] Speaker F: I have no idea. 55. [00:31:36] Speaker E: Okay. Tony? [00:31:40] Speaker F: Oh, 60. [00:31:43] Speaker D: 1962. [00:31:47] Speaker E: And Jack? 58. And what do you think, Peter? [00:31:52] Speaker D: He blew my theory by saying 58, so I'm gonna say 68. [00:31:57] Speaker E: 1968. Okay, we'll check now and see when the first Playboy Club actually did open in Chicago. Okay. Okay. No, Bob. Snow grinds, ladies. And keep the belly button covered. Thank you. There used to be. Actually there was a theme to it. It was a Playboy Club of the air. And the Cy Coleman was the guy who wrote and played the Playboy theme. And if I realized it was the big anniversary, I would have brought it in. But it doesn't really matter. What the heck. The actual year that the first Playboy Club was open in Chicago, ladies and gentlemen, was 1960. 1960. Which would mean, I believe that Tony had said 62. But Jack also said 58. And no, I think those were the two winners. Peter said 68. That's right. Yes. [00:33:05] Speaker D: You know, it's because I only read it for the article. [00:33:09] Speaker E: That's right. [00:33:11] Speaker B: Keep that up, you'll go blind. [00:33:14] Speaker E: Yes. [00:33:15] Speaker D: Or at least glasses. Norma. [00:33:17] Speaker E: Yes. [00:33:17] Speaker D: Tell me this isn't a little strange. Two in house people. [00:33:21] Speaker E: I know it. I know it. [00:33:23] Speaker D: That doesn't look bad, though. [00:33:24] Speaker E: No, it, it, it could be fixed. It could very well be fixed. [00:33:28] Speaker D: Let's have Tony fixed. [00:33:33] Speaker E: We don't need to talk about that. [00:33:34] Speaker D: I just got my cat fixed and it's been trying on. [00:33:38] Speaker E: Okay, so, so the. Let me see. The. Jack has four, and Tony. Tony also has four. Wow. Jimmy, Jim. Paul. No, Jim. Jim and Peter both have two, and Paul has one. And Debbie has the cutest smile you ever saw in your class. [00:34:00] Speaker D: Debbie's kind of holding her own. It's better than holding. [00:34:05] Speaker E: Okay, so I want to, I want to thank. I want to thank all of you for playing the dumb birthday game. It certainly has been a wondrous moment and I thank you for it. Again. We've advanced radio to its outer limits, gone where no other person would go before. [00:34:21] Speaker B: Let me ask that question. [00:34:22] Speaker E: What's that? Oh, you want to ask to Jack something? Go ahead. [00:34:26] Speaker F: Go ahead. [00:34:26] Speaker B: Okay. As I said, I was driving the other night and I was doing my lubrication and I was wondering why it only snows in certain areas in the state and it's mostly central Massachusetts. [00:34:44] Speaker H: Because they need the water. [00:34:46] Speaker B: They need the water. [00:34:47] Speaker D: Yes. [00:34:48] Speaker A: Good answer. [00:34:48] Speaker D: Good answer. Let's go to the board. [00:34:53] Speaker B: 2.5. Is that the best you can do? [00:34:58] Speaker H: Well, because that's the way the, the, the, the snow patterns go. I, I don't know. It doesn't snow much around you because. [00:35:06] Speaker E: This is absolutely pitiful. [00:35:08] Speaker D: That's where the snowball. Jack, can we pull the panel, please? [00:35:14] Speaker H: If they, if they, if they'll let you. [00:35:15] Speaker B: That can be painful. You don't know. You. You'll say you'll save face that way. [00:35:19] Speaker E: Now why. The question is why does it snow in certain areas more so than in other areas. [00:35:23] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:35:23] Speaker D: I pull the panel. [00:35:25] Speaker E: Okay. It depends upon the. Obviously the temperature and the temperature depends upon the altitude of the area, how far it is away from the coast. If it's away from water, then it's colder. [00:35:39] Speaker B: Well, it wasn't the best show ever, but. [00:35:42] Speaker E: Yeah. Thank you very much anyway. I appreciate all of you being part of this. [00:35:46] Speaker B: All right. [00:35:46] Speaker E: Okay. Okay. Okay. Paul, thank you. And thank you, Jim. [00:35:51] Speaker D: And Debbie, consider going to bu. [00:35:53] Speaker F: Okay. [00:35:54] Speaker E: You guys want to exchange ideas or anything like that? I'd love to see the both of you together. I think. What's that? [00:36:01] Speaker D: Can we. [00:36:02] Speaker E: Go ahead. You can talk to each other. [00:36:03] Speaker F: All right. [00:36:04] Speaker D: So, Debbie, you don't go to school because I always thought. For the past three weeks, I thought it was Wesleyan, but I figured a college. [00:36:11] Speaker F: Well, there is a Lesley College and there's a Wellesley College, but I don't go to neither one. Ah. [00:36:15] Speaker D: Did you at one specific time? [00:36:19] Speaker F: No. [00:36:19] Speaker D: Ah, that's cool. Well, I'm only here because my parents. [00:36:22] Speaker B: Kicked me out of New York. [00:36:25] Speaker D: They said, go major in communications or something. So I'm on the phone at 4am Guessing birthdays. [00:36:30] Speaker E: What kind of work do you do, Debbie? [00:36:32] Speaker F: I work at an answering service. [00:36:34] Speaker E: Oh, you have your own company? [00:36:35] Speaker D: No. Are you the one who always says, I'm sorry, but at the present time, so and so can't come to the phone. Please leave your name. Yeah, I know this girl. [00:36:49] Speaker E: You'Ve called. You've called a doctor. She does the service for. [00:36:52] Speaker D: You know, we should have asked her about the snow problem. Because if she works for an answering service, she the girl that says, hey. [00:37:00] Speaker H: I'll take a message for you and have him get back to you later. [00:37:02] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:37:03] Speaker E: Debbie, do you also do in the. [00:37:06] Speaker D: Automobiles where it says, your door is open? [00:37:10] Speaker H: I had one that was a liar used to say my door was a jar. [00:37:13] Speaker D: I could never understand that. [00:37:16] Speaker E: Oh, you're gonna have. [00:37:17] Speaker D: That was bad. [00:37:18] Speaker E: Whoever just said, oh, that was awfully not going to do that thing about the magician walking down the street and turning into a drugstore. God help us. Anyway, Peter, thank you very much for being part of this. Thank you. Good night, now. And, Debbie, it's all you. Always, you've been a real lady in the face of some really gross people.

And if you're a member of the Westinghouse family, you're a loser. And I don't think I mean that exactly. [00:38:08] Speaker D: Yes, I think you do. [00:38:10] Speaker H: You know, somebody asked me, speaking of family, somebody asked me once if I came from a big family. And I said, well, I had a couple of sisters that were a little chubby. Thank you. [00:38:20] Speaker E: We'll see it, Jack. Okay, clip them off. Get rid of Them fast. Can I hang up on you? Yeah, go ahead. Hang up on me again. Okay. Okay, I'll get even with him.

I heard the lady call a little while ago before your game about the song A Daisy a Day. [00:42:45] Speaker E: Yes. [00:42:45] Speaker F: Yeah. And I have it here. [00:42:48] Speaker I: The song. [00:42:48] Speaker E: Oh, you have the words. [00:42:50] Speaker F: I have. [00:42:50] Speaker E: You have the whole song? [00:42:52] Speaker F: Yeah. Well, I have the. The record. The song is on the record. [00:42:55] Speaker E: Yeah. Okay. Do you have. You have a. Can you get them the telephone close enough to the speaker? [00:43:00] Speaker F: Yes, I think so. Hang in it. I got it off that. Oh, I'm sorry. Did you hear that? [00:43:05] Speaker E: Would you do. Knock it off? [00:43:06] Speaker F: No, no, no, no. I put the phone on the floor. [00:43:08] Speaker E: Oh. Oh, I see. Okay. [00:43:10] Speaker F: One second. [00:43:11] Speaker E: Okay. Okay, that'd be fine. Okay, we'll. We'll do just maybe a course of the Judd Strunk. A woman had called and gave us the lyrics to some of the lyrics to the song and didn't know the name of the song. And Jack Hart came up with it and suggested that it was this one. [00:44:04] Speaker D: Give you. [00:44:26] Speaker E: She really doesn't have the phone that close to the speaker, so it's a little hard to follow. Can you hear me, Mary? [00:44:31] Speaker F: Did you hear it? [00:44:32] Speaker E: Yeah. You didn't. You didn't. This. If you could put the speaker. [00:44:36] Speaker F: I can play it louder. [00:44:37] Speaker E: Well, no, no, it's not a question of playing it louder. There's a speaker. Then if you put the phone right up against the speaker, Closer. [00:44:44] Speaker F: I can put the speaker closer. [00:44:48] Speaker E: I'm suggesting you put the phone right up against the speaker. [00:44:51] Speaker F: Yeah, I can bring the speaker out. I can do that. Why not? [00:44:59] Speaker E: I have a feeling we could bring a satellite broadcast in from London. Easier. It doesn't seem to be any closer at all. Okay. Hey, Mary. Mary. Thank you just the same. No, we just can't get it clear enough. Mary, I'm going to have to hang up on you. Yeah, no, we just. Now she does. It's not being held right up the speaker. Mary, you're there. [00:45:35] Speaker F: Can you hear it? [00:45:36] Speaker E: No, I mean. Mary. So you have to hold it. Mary. [00:45:39] Speaker F: Yeah. [00:45:40] Speaker E: Mary, you have to hold the phone right up against. Do you know where the speaker is? No. Thank you very much, Mary. We just can't waste any more time doing that. But I. I appreciate very much you trying. Thank you. I don't think anything changed much. I mean, she's a very nice lady for wanting to do that. But you have to put the phone right next to speak. Even then the quality isn't. Isn't great on a phone, on a phone line. But if, but if it's any less than that, you can't even make out the words Dan in Rhode island also. How you doing, Dan? [00:46:13] Speaker I: I'm doing great, Norman. Nice to hear you again. [00:46:15] Speaker E: Well, nice to hear you again. I haven't talked to you for a while. [00:46:17] Speaker I: No. Well, I was working two jobs for a while. One getting up at about 5 o'. [00:46:23] Speaker D: Clock in the morning and running a. [00:46:24] Speaker I: Pack O Matic machine, which is a jewelry policy machine, and working here on the second shift a couple of days a week. [00:46:30] Speaker E: So what are you doing now? You're doing the one job? [00:46:32] Speaker I: I'm doing the one job and just kind of scraping by. [00:46:34] Speaker E: Oh, my goodness. [00:46:36] Speaker I: Well, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what I found out though, Norman. The public libraries here in Rhode Island, a few of them have Apple Iie computers. [00:46:45] Speaker E: Yes. [00:46:45] Speaker I: And you can get access to them and most people are afraid of them. So I completely redid my resume on one. Learned a word processing program and I'm doing a database for a. One of the political candidates. A list of all of the people. [00:47:00] Speaker D: That will help her out. [00:47:01] Speaker E: Oh, well, great. [00:47:03] Speaker I: So I've learned quite a bit anyway. [00:47:05] Speaker E: Oh, well, that's really. That's fine. Good for you. That sounds great. [00:47:08] Speaker I: And, and I'm really getting into computers. I took a self help book out of a library and I'm learning a little bit more and a little bit more each night. [00:47:18] Speaker E: Well, that's great. I admire you for being able to do that. Computers are tremendous help and are amazing devices. I wish I could master it or even slightly master it. And you obviously are on your way to doing that. [00:47:31] Speaker I: Well, they're actually pretty easy. All you have to do do is know how to type and be a little bit daring. I see most of them today are what they call user friendly. [00:47:41] Speaker E: Yeah. [00:47:42] Speaker I: And if you went down to a Radio Shack, Tandy has a couple of them that have a whole home organizer in them. And all you do is press a particular key and it gives you all the instructions as you go along. Basically they're self tutorial. They're very, very interesting. [00:47:59] Speaker E: Yeah, we have a computer at home and you know, instruction that kind of stuff. And there's certain things I can do with it, but it doesn't have what you're saying. And so it's a little more complicated for me. But it does the simple kinds of things that I need to have done. And we have a printer that can print the stuff up. But anyway, they're incredible device. I can't imagine anybody figuring out how to invent all of this stuff. [00:48:25] Speaker I: Well, I also wanted to praise an organization. There was a program, of course, being out of work, you know, we're a little bit poor. And there's a program called Vision USA and I read it about it in the newspaper. And what it is is that a particular optometrist donates his time and gives you an eye exam and the optician donates the frames and a lens company donates the lenses. So I got a free pair of eyeglasses. [00:48:58] Speaker E: Oh, that's great. Oh, that's great. Good. Very, very good. Are you at the gas station now? [00:49:04] Speaker I: Yes, I am. [00:49:05] Speaker E: Okay, so you just, you just work there part time now? [00:49:07] Speaker I: Yeah, I'm working well, about 29 hours a week. [00:49:11] Speaker E: Okay, well that's pretty much close to full time then. [00:49:14] Speaker I: Yeah, but it's kind of hard to live on 180 a week. [00:49:18] Speaker E: Yeah, it certainly is. Well, it's good to talk with you, Dan. And I wish you good luck and good luck on the computer. [00:49:23] Speaker I: I'll drop you a line from the computer. [00:49:26] Speaker E: Okay, I look forward to it. [00:49:28] Speaker F: Great. [00:49:28] Speaker E: Take care. Bye. Bye, Dan. Okay, so a couple of minutes before 4:00 here, you're tuned to WBC. Coming up, the news. And we'll, we'll take some more calls after that. Okay. The Atlanta Hawks beat the Boston Celtics 102 to 90. Kevin Willis had 22 points and 22 rebounds. Romeo Robinson scored 23 points. And the Atlanta Hawks handed the Celtics their fifth consecutive road loss down there in Atlanta, 102 to 90. Willis now has had 20 or more points and rebounds in a game 11 times this season for the Hawks, who broke open a close game by outscoring the Celtics 21 to 13 in the fourth quarter. It was the third victory in a row for Atlanta. It's sixth in succession over the Celtics, who've lost eight of their last 11 games. That make you feel sad. Kevin McHale led the Celtics with 20 points. Robert Parish added 18. But the final score again 102 to 90. Atlanta over the Celtics. And I think we can get through the lottery numbers quickly.

And we'll see you right after the news. [00:51:12] Speaker G: You are Never more than 10 minutes away from the latest WBZ AccuWeather forecast. [00:51:16] Speaker C: Exclusively on New England's news and information station, WBZ Boston. [00:51:27] Speaker E: I'm WBZ accurate meteorologist Roy Gallant. Temperature now. Oh, okay. Oh, yeah. Oh. Anyway, it's 40 degrees. I was trying to. Trying to figure it, honey, but I can go. I suppose they can go deliriously enthusiastic and romantic and feel warm toward Roy Gallant. Well, it's a little hard to figure that, isn't it? That's right. It is hard to figure that, Daryl. [00:51:57] Speaker H: So there was a Knievel guy on earlier in the week doing traffic, and I wonder if he is any relation to evil. [00:52:05] Speaker G: To his. [00:52:06] Speaker E: To evil. Yeah. Yes, he is. [00:52:09] Speaker H: And my big question is, what parent would name their child evil? [00:52:15] Speaker E: Mr. Knievel? Mr. Mrs. Knievel? I really don't know. I don't know. Anyway, seven after four o' clock it is raining, as I know you know. And is that having. Get a load of this provocative question. Is that having any effect on the heavy traffic that normally builds up at this time of a Saturday morning, like at 7 after 4 o' clock in the morning? [00:52:41] Speaker H: Well, it certainly is making the road wet. [00:52:44] Speaker E: Yeah, I imagine that it's probably causing slippery conditions. This is where we say the obvious kind of things, say the roads are slippery. So be careful, folks. [00:52:55] Speaker H: It's like one giant banana peel. [00:52:58] Speaker E: One giant banana peel. That's very picturesque. It could have been Written by Fred Allen himself. That town up in Maine, that seacoast town, you know, up in Maine was so boring that one day the tide went out and never bothered to come back in again. That kind of a line. That. Wonderful. We get such a chuckle out of a line that's about 50 years old. Yes, sir. The mosquitoes were so big that when they attacked a bus going through the Holland Tunnel. Holland Tunnel. It swelled up just so darn much, it couldn't fit through that. I have a feeling about phrasing that, too. Well, yes, sir. The town I live in is so small. We don't have a sanitation department. We just have this little old lady comes in twice a week and picks up. I think. I think I reached the end of my jokes there. Thank you very much, everybody. Ladies and gentlemen, here's Jack to pick up the pace and tell us about the heavy traffic that is flowing into the city. [00:54:24] Speaker H: Holy smokes. [00:54:30] Speaker E: Yes, sir. I want to tell you about Jack. This is a guy. Listen to me. Listen to me now, Jack. Jack Hard has more talent in his little tiny finger than he has in his entire body. Oh, my. Okay, I'm just about you. Part of the expression spent. I just better lie back here and try to relax and get my energy together while you do the traffic stuff. [00:54:57] Speaker H: Okay. [00:55:02] Speaker E: We'Re waiting. We're waiting. Zach, I'm gonna go back here, so I want to see if you project. I'm back in the tea canteen in the back hall. We're waiting. Can you hear me back there? [00:55:18] Speaker G: Yeah. [00:55:21] Speaker H: Okay. Yeah. Okay, we're in. We're doing well on the roadways. [00:55:26] Speaker E: We do have. [00:55:27] Speaker H: We do have some traffic is starting up northbound on the expressway. Getting into the southbound. It's getting into the northbound side. [00:55:34] Speaker E: Southbound. [00:55:34] Speaker H: People are having trouble getting past the work crews in the two right hand lanes. Only the left lane is getting by, surprisingly enough. [00:55:46] Speaker E: Oh, Jack, we're waiting. [00:55:52] Speaker H: So I guess you can't hear me back there. [00:55:56] Speaker E: We turned off the PA system. We still can't hear you back here. [00:56:08] Speaker H: At any rate, we've got those working, waiting. Well, we've got those work crews there in the South Station Tunnel. [00:56:20] Speaker E: And. [00:56:20] Speaker H: And they've also got the. They've also got the thing closed down from Congress street to the. To the tunnel. [00:56:27] Speaker E: Southbound. [00:56:28] Speaker H: If you're over in the Sumner Tunnel, you'll find a lane closed down. We believe it's the left lane over there. While they do some nesting and stuff, sweeping before the weekend ends outside of the city. Routes 128 and 495, we're beginning to see the crush of delivery trucks and mailmen and newspaper people and such. Thank you. And the Mass pike is looking nice. [00:56:51] Speaker E: I'm Jack Hart. Microphone on. Microphone on. I'm sorry. You all through now? [00:57:01] Speaker H: Yes, I am. [00:57:01] Speaker E: Let's turn off. Turn off his PA system. Thank you very much. You want to pull yourself together because we're going to call on you again in a buck. Well, the way, the way this through this report took, it'll only be about three minutes before we're back on again with another one. [00:57:16] Speaker H: Well, I hope something happens on the roads then. [00:57:18] Speaker E: God, I hope so too. Yeah, yeah, I'm calling from on my brother in law Bernie to get out there and drive. He just generally causes some real messes on the highway. [00:57:27] Speaker H: And he's got a big, big car to make it look like a traffic. [00:57:29] Speaker E: That's right, a big car. That's right. Anyway, talk to you soon. [00:57:33] Speaker H: Okay, let me. Can I play my little spot here? [00:57:35] Speaker E: You do your little commercial. Okay. At Wachusett Mountain in Princeton, increased snowmaking capacity. [00:57:42] Speaker H: More snow. More skiing, more fun. [00:57:44] Speaker E: At Wachusett Mountain, 1-800-696-SNOW. [00:57:48] Speaker G: WBZ is committed to bringing you the latest news 24 hours a day. [00:57:53] Speaker E: And when we're not reporting the news. [00:57:55] Speaker G: We'Re talking about it. [00:57:56] Speaker E: Here's WBC's Norm Nason. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. Thank you. Time is 13 minutes after 4 o'. Clock. And this is America's Showcase, or WBC Westinghouse's showcase, the Norm Nathan program. And we'll take some calls now. 2, 5, 4, 10:30. We have just one open line. Let's talk with Helen, who's been hanging on for a very long time. I know that, Helen. I apologize. [00:58:21] Speaker F: Jack has to stop laughing at you because the more he laughs, the worse you get. [00:58:26] Speaker E: I know. And I get silly. I get so silly. Helen, I'm a terribly serious and a very responsible human being. [00:58:33] Speaker F: You know, I think the whole thing is a communist plot between you and Bob. Every morning when I start to make my coffee, you put that darn commercial on Gold Bond. [00:58:44] Speaker E: Oh, Gold Bond. We thought you liked it. We thought you enjoyed that commercial. [00:58:48] Speaker F: Calling this plot. [00:58:49] Speaker E: I thought you liked hearing about people. [00:58:51] Speaker F: Scratching and especially when I'm drinking my coffee. [00:58:54] Speaker E: Yeah. Tearing off their skin and looking for relief from the itch. It is really a pleasant commercial. [00:59:00] Speaker F: Oh, listen, what do you think of that? Roger Clemens put an arrogant spoiler. [00:59:06] Speaker E: He acts like he's about 3 years old. I can't believe any guy would do that. He's totally insensitive to anybody or anything. [00:59:15] Speaker F: The very first income that he got that the new manager was, you know, unhappy with what he's doing, you think he would have got on the call on the phone, but because he doesn't have to do it, he's not going to do it. [00:59:27] Speaker E: He sounds like he's just a child. He's got a. He's a grown man with a child. Child's mind between his ears. No, I just totally agree. He's been in one scrape after another. He never acts like he's sorry about anything. He's going to slug in people. He does. He does some terrible things. And it's like, who cares? You know? He doesn't seem to feel any guilt about anything. I mean, here's a Butch Hobson, the poor soul is finally up in the major leagues, is managing a team for the first time in the major leagues. Got the Red Sox, and Clements is going to start playing games with him. [01:00:07] Speaker F: Yeah. [01:00:07] Speaker E: You know, I mean, isn't that nice. [01:00:08] Speaker F: When you get that kind of dough that you can do that? [01:00:12] Speaker E: Well, I mean, you know, you can do it against, you know, if you're striking back at somebody who's done something terrible to you or some kind of a reason like that? No reason just then. Just to be childish. No, I mean, I just have no sympathy with that guy at all, I guess. Nobody does them in all kinds of columns and edit and. And broadcasting editorials. And everybody seems to be against Clements for this. [01:00:36] Speaker F: Kind of like he's gonna give this fella a hard time, this new manager. [01:00:40] Speaker E: Yeah, for the season. [01:00:43] Speaker F: But. Anyway, Norm, that's all I have to say. But just change your time on that commercial, will you? [01:00:50] Speaker E: Okay, I'll do that. You know what I was thinking, though, just before I let you go, because I know you have to go now. You got busy stuff to do and a lot of wonderful things, and this is your busy time of day. [01:00:59] Speaker F: So you're going to play it again? [01:01:01] Speaker E: No, no, no. Well, I may. I don't see it on the schedule for this half hour anyway. We're safe for another few minutes. But now I was just thinking, for those of us kids who are looking for a role model among athletes, first I was going to make Mike Tyson my role model. Then that went down the toilet. Then I thought, well, there's always Roger Clemens, and now he's gone, I don't know what to do. [01:01:25] Speaker F: How about Wade Boggs? [01:01:28] Speaker E: Well, he's okay now, but he wasn't too great a Few years ago, and he was diddling around. Remember that? With that. I can't even remember the name of that woman. What was her name? [01:01:36] Speaker F: Oh, don't ask me. I don't know. [01:01:38] Speaker E: Don't you remember when he was. He had this. He admitted this affair with this. This woman who. [01:01:45] Speaker F: Yeah, I remember the story, but I. [01:01:47] Speaker E: Don'T know her name. Isn't that. Isn't that funny how we knew the name. So Adams wasn't her last name. Adams. We knew the name so clearly then, and suddenly that's gone out of our mind. [01:01:58] Speaker F: Well, that's what happens to all the poor women. You guys get all the publicity, and the poor women, they fade into the background. [01:02:05] Speaker E: Oh, Helen, you're scolding me, aren't you? That was scolding me. Anyway, my role model. And the guy I want to be like when I grow up is Ted Lepzio. [01:02:15] Speaker F: Who's he? [01:02:16] Speaker E: Oh, he used to play for the Red Sox. [01:02:17] Speaker F: Oh, before my time. [01:02:20] Speaker E: Oh, Helen, Helen, Helen, you're a nice person. And just for that, I want to play the Gold Bond commercial. [01:02:27] Speaker F: Goodbye. [01:02:28] Speaker E: Bye. Bye. But I won't play it right now. Okay, let's go to Al in the Framingham. Hi, Al. [01:02:34] Speaker F: Hi, Uncle Norm. [01:02:35] Speaker D: How you doing? [01:02:35] Speaker C: Hey. [01:02:36] Speaker E: Okay. How are you doing, big guy? [01:02:37] Speaker I: Hey, what's this? All this laughing and everything? [01:02:40] Speaker E: I didn't hear any laughing, Bernie. [01:02:42] Speaker D: Did you? [01:02:43] Speaker E: I don't know. Did you hear laughing? Yeah, I must have been laying an egg or something. I must have been tuned to another station. I got something here. [01:02:52] Speaker I: I went to folk telling at the library at Framingham. [01:02:58] Speaker D: They come from Nashville, Tennessee. You're real good. [01:03:02] Speaker I: I think it'd make a good call for you sometime. [01:03:05] Speaker E: Okay, now tell me that. Incidentally, I was just getting information on the name of the woman who I couldn't think of. Do you remember who that was? The Wade Boggs had been going with and who told all about their relationship. Do you remember her name? No. Margot Margo Adams. It's funny how quickly we forget. [01:03:26] Speaker D: Well, anyway, tell me about. [01:03:28] Speaker E: Tell me about this phone call. Now, what did you have in mind? [01:03:30] Speaker D: Okay. [01:03:31] Speaker I: It's folk tellers. [01:03:35] Speaker D: They tell stories from age, child age to grown up age. [01:03:40] Speaker I: Yeah, it's from Nashville, North Carolina. [01:03:46] Speaker E: Nashville, North Carolina. [01:03:48] Speaker D: Yeah, they come from. [01:03:49] Speaker I: They have the mountain bow like they come from, you know, way up in the sticks. [01:03:55] Speaker E: Yeah, there is a Nashville in North Carolina. [01:03:58] Speaker D: Well, it says Nashville, North Carolina. [01:04:00] Speaker E: Son of a gun. [01:04:02] Speaker I: Okay, I got the telephone number if you want it. [01:04:06] Speaker E: Well, you can give it to us. I don't know if we'll call, but we can try.
