Welcome to all.

I'll keep entertaining you whilst you keep spreading the word about getting people to subscribe and point them over to Patreon and buy me a coffee for an additional avenue of support. Keep up the good work. I appreciate everything, every one of you. My favorite holiday is this month, so in honor of that, we will broadcast all episodes from November 23rd, one of those close dates to Thanksgiving. Today we feature a dumb birthday game from November 23rd of 1992. The title, Inconstancy.
You're gonna have to listen to find out. Even though Norm is filling in for Bob because it's Thanksgiving week, he had to dig into other days for the game, which threatened the possibility of any other games that week.
The players Patton, Melrose May from Boston. Constance in Weymouth or Addie. I'm producing and playing in studio. And Bill Wilson in traffic. The birthdays, Louis Teent, Susan Anspach, Jerry Bach. Then a question in history. In what year did the musical Fiorello debut on Broadway? Next we move to November 25th for John Larroquette and Ricardo Montalban. Then the 26th for Robert Goulet and Tina Turner. Back to some more history. The first edition of Life magazine was published on November 23rd. In what year? Post game commercials. Robin McEntire from Tracy, California for Baby Gold. Bond. Dave Maynard for Caitlin Travel and their big trip to Ireland. Dave again.

Ann Marie from Hyde Park. Episode 312, Inconstancy Dreams its way to your ears.
[00:02:41] Speaker B: Now get a chance to play the dumb birthday game this morning. And I must introduce you to members of our panel because they're all such swell people, like Pat, who's in Melrose, who we talked to a little bit earlier. Hi. Hello again, Pat.
[00:02:54] Speaker C: Good morning. Good morning.
[00:02:56] Speaker B: We're all kind of excited about this and getting goose pimply and ready to Play. Hey, I guess. Okay, you guess.
Just restrain your enthusiasm a little bit. But keep talking low, though, and that's very good.
I think it's a stomach ailment you
[00:03:12] Speaker C: have, but I'll take some Pepto Bismol.
[00:03:14] Speaker B: Pepto Bismol would be nice. I wonder if we sell anything during the night here that would help you. No, I think Gold Bond mixed with two parts of water probably wouldn't do much.
[00:03:24] Speaker D: How about some Kwai garlic tablets?
[00:03:26] Speaker B: Oh, Kwai garlic tablets would be just enough.
[00:03:28] Speaker C: I think that'll do it.
[00:03:30] Speaker B: Hey, here's. May is with us, too. From Boston.
[00:03:33] Speaker C: Oh, you. I'm really enjoying you people tonight.
[00:03:36] Speaker B: We're just having such a swell.
[00:03:38] Speaker C: I want to know one thing. Where did Gold Bond ever come from? I never heard of it until a couple of years ago. And now. My God. You can't turn the radio on for five seconds there.
[00:03:49] Speaker B: I know Gold Bond was the secret discovery of a.
[00:03:51] Speaker C: That's for sure.
[00:03:53] Speaker B: Man named Harry Needleman.
[00:03:54] Speaker C: But it's not a secret anymore.
[00:03:56] Speaker B: No, it's not. See, I was about to tell you a whole story, May, but I changed my mind.
[00:04:01] Speaker C: All right, dear.
[00:04:02] Speaker B: Okay, here's Constance. And Weymouth is with us this morning also. Again. Hi, Constance.
One moment, please. The trouble appears to be in our set.
Are you there, Constance?
Well, that's interesting, isn't it?
[00:04:18] Speaker C: Huh?
[00:04:19] Speaker B: You hear her snoring? Let me hear.
[00:04:24] Speaker C: No, no, no, no.
[00:04:25] Speaker D: That's someone else. Someone wants to listen.
[00:04:27] Speaker B: That's not Constance.
[00:04:29] Speaker D: That's her breathing, though.
[00:04:31] Speaker B: That's Constance breathing. She's fallen asleep on us.
[00:04:34] Speaker D: She has.
[00:04:35] Speaker B: Constance, wake up.
No, I guess. I guess not.
[00:04:39] Speaker D: Let's just leave her on the line, shall we? Leave her there? She happens to wake up during the game. Okay, Continue from that point.
[00:04:45] Speaker B: Okay.
You know who else who was on the line is Addie. Andy.
How you wearing your little bonnet and your little calico dress and your little apron?
[00:04:55] Speaker E: I sure am.
[00:04:56] Speaker B: And you show. Am I?
[00:04:58] Speaker F: Show him.
[00:04:59] Speaker E: Listen, listen. Patrick up in Canada is still on hold. And as soon as he can think of the age of Mariel Hemingway, he said he'd get back to you.
[00:05:08] Speaker B: Oh, yeah? Yeah. That, for people who missed yesterday's program, is just a sample of the kind of humor we have here every single day. And we're not even going to explain what that means, okay? Tony Nesbitt, of course, is with us. Tony?
[00:05:21] Speaker C: Hey.
[00:05:23] Speaker D: Oh, I'm sorry.
[00:05:24] Speaker B: I don't know what that means.
[00:05:26] Speaker D: I drifted off for a second.
Constance, Hello?
[00:05:31] Speaker B: Well, we'll keep her.
[00:05:33] Speaker C: Hello?
[00:05:33] Speaker B: Hello? Constance. And we have Bill Wilson, of course, is with us too, in the midst of all this rain. Hi, Bill.
[00:05:40] Speaker G: Hi, Norm.
[00:05:41] Speaker B: All set to play the dumb birthday game this morning. A little extra bonus game today and this is just so darn exciting. Not too many people, well known people born this week. I don't know, maybe it's a holiday week and they didn't feel like it could be. But we have a couple of people born on this date.
[00:05:59] Speaker D: 3.
[00:05:59] Speaker B: And then we'll do some more for the rest of the week. Like Louis Teon, one of my favorite all time baseball pitchers. Pat, how old do you think Louis Tant is this very day?
[00:06:12] Speaker C: 38.
[00:06:13] Speaker B: 38.
[00:06:15] Speaker D: That's when he retired from baseball. About 38, wasn't it?
[00:06:18] Speaker B: It was about 1930.
Louis Tant. I don't watch baseball. Oh, you don't follow baseball? Okay.
[00:06:25] Speaker C: Unless he has he don't the tights and gets in the ring. I don't.
[00:06:28] Speaker B: Oh, I get you. Okay. May, what about you? Do you know. You know Louis T. Oh, yes, the.
[00:06:34] Speaker C: The ex. Lottery man. Yes.
[00:06:37] Speaker B: What do you mean?
Did he pitch the lottery?
[00:06:39] Speaker H: No, he worked.
[00:06:40] Speaker B: Oh, work for the lottery. That's right. Oh yeah.
[00:06:43] Speaker C: That's probably 55.
[00:06:46] Speaker B: 55. Okay. And Constance? We'll just ask her. Even though she's asleep.
[00:06:52] Speaker G: Yeah.
[00:06:53] Speaker B: What do you think? Constance?
Okay.
She'll probably get it right. Go to sleep. Go to sleep.
[00:07:01] Speaker D: I think she. She took some of that.
Nighty night.
[00:07:04] Speaker B: That must be it.
[00:07:05] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:07:05] Speaker D: Is that the product? I'm sorry.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: Nighty Night is good. Or it's the shushy boo. Yeah, Shushy boo. Or Jammy Poo is. And Betty Bai. Betty Bai is good. That's all that good stuff to make you smoke.
[00:07:15] Speaker D: She may have taken them all.
[00:07:16] Speaker B: She may have. She may have taken an overdose of Ovaltine.
That'll make you sleep.
Andy?
[00:07:24] Speaker E: Yes, my love?
[00:07:25] Speaker B: How old is Louis?
[00:07:26] Speaker C: Tia, Daddy have no idea.
[00:07:29] Speaker E: But I don't even know who the dang man is.
[00:07:32] Speaker B: You don't know who Louis the Hunt is? He pitches down in Boston. He does some kind of baseball team down there.
[00:07:39] Speaker C: Sure.
[00:07:41] Speaker E: Well, let's say 51.
[00:07:45] Speaker B: 51?
[00:07:46] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:07:48] Speaker B: That's pretty precise guess for somebody who does. Says they don't even know who Lee Louis Theon is.
[00:07:53] Speaker E: I have no idea.
[00:07:55] Speaker B: Okay, Tony, what do you think?
[00:07:58] Speaker D: I don't know who he is. No, He's a cigar chomping.
[00:08:07] Speaker B: I used to love his wind up when he spin all the way around the second race in the back. He looked like a. A little machine. A Kind of a little doll that you put a quarter in or a nickel and it would kind of spin around for you.
Interesting guy, Louie.
[00:08:22] Speaker C: Louie.
[00:08:23] Speaker B: I saw him last time was a couple of years ago. He still looks like he could pitch. But I said, hey, Lou, you still look like you could pitch. And he said, shut up, you funny man.
Something like that.
[00:08:34] Speaker G: He said it that clearly?
[00:08:35] Speaker B: Yeah. No, actually not. I'm trying. He said it in Spanish and I'm translating.
[00:08:41] Speaker G: 50?
[00:08:44] Speaker D: Yeah, 55. That was my original answer.
[00:08:46] Speaker B: That's your original answer?
[00:08:48] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:08:48] Speaker B: I see.
[00:08:49] Speaker D: After you. You kind of sway me with Addie being so precise at 51.
[00:08:53] Speaker E: Well, I was trying to bat a 100 with that amphetone.
[00:08:57] Speaker B: You got a bunch of.
[00:08:58] Speaker D: Someone doesn't know who she's talking about. She's got the joke.
[00:09:02] Speaker B: Bill, what do you say
[00:09:05] Speaker C: that.
[00:09:06] Speaker G: That wind up? You mentioned earlier that he has. He had an interesting story about that. He said he used to.
[00:09:12] Speaker B: He.
[00:09:13] Speaker G: He lived out in center field.
His mother's house was out there, and he would always be looking to see his mother. That's how he got that big wind up like that. For some reason, he was always looking at his mother. I'm not sure why.
[00:09:25] Speaker B: Isn't that an interesting story?
Golly, that was interesting.
[00:09:30] Speaker G: Oh, gee, Louis tion. A lot of people don't know how old he is. He was actually older than he says he is. But he's 52 years old.
[00:09:38] Speaker B: That's exactly right. That's. At least. That's the.
It's probably so. He's probably not the age we think he is. He may very well be older than that. But he's listed as 52, so. And you said 52, so you're right.
You win the first.
[00:09:54] Speaker E: Threw the rest of us right out of the batter.
[00:09:58] Speaker B: That's what he did. That's what this kid did.
[00:10:00] Speaker D: Back to the dugout.
[00:10:01] Speaker B: Yeah, because he throws flames.
Okay. Today's the birthday also of Susan Anspak. Oh, she's an actress. She was in Five Easy Pieces and also the Woody Allen movie Play it Again.
[00:10:14] Speaker E: Sam, Was she one of the Easy Pieces?
[00:10:21] Speaker B: We don't need smut. Okay? You know what I'm saying?
[00:10:25] Speaker D: Wait a minute. What happened to get Norm back in there. He likes smut. Where is he?
[00:10:29] Speaker E: Yeah,
[00:10:31] Speaker B: I say we don't need smut. I didn't say we shouldn't have it.
[00:10:34] Speaker D: That's right. You're right.
[00:10:36] Speaker B: I get a whole box full of smut at home.
Hey, Bill, what do you say? How old is Susan and Spack?
[00:10:44] Speaker G: 50.
[00:10:45] Speaker D: 50 that's a pretty precise guess for someone that is.
[00:10:49] Speaker B: Yeah, somebody who never heard of her, doesn't care.
Yeah, I think he's been doing homework.
But then again, I'm not even saying he's correct. I know just the way he's blurted out the answers, like he thinks he knows. What do you think, Tony?
[00:11:03] Speaker D: 50.
[00:11:06] Speaker B: And Addie, what do you say?
[00:11:09] Speaker E: Oh, 49.
[00:11:11] Speaker B: 49. Just to. Just to be kind of a little different.
[00:11:14] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:11:15] Speaker B: Addie. Addy, quite contrary.
How do you churn your butter and does it grow?
What does that mean? I have no idea.
[00:11:23] Speaker E: I understand it perfectly. I told you, when you start rambling like that, it makes perfect sense to me.
[00:11:29] Speaker B: Oh, my goodness.
The next problem you'll have is hanging around Bellingham Square in Chelsea and understanding what they're saying. At least when I was a kid, they used to stand out there and say.
[00:11:45] Speaker I: No.
[00:11:45] Speaker B: After a while, I understood what they were saying. So we moved out.
[00:11:48] Speaker E: And they run into Robert at Everett Square, though.
[00:11:53] Speaker B: Okay, Constant. We'll try constants again. Constants.
Yes? Constance still asleep? Let's hear.
Why she's dead.
[00:12:07] Speaker C: Oh, no.
[00:12:08] Speaker B: Maybe we better call the police.
[00:12:11] Speaker C: Nah.
[00:12:11] Speaker D: Now, if we hung up the phone would, you know, get that terrible buzzing sound. She'd wake up. But I kind of like this added effect of having her on the line.
[00:12:18] Speaker B: Yeah, she might wake up before this is true.
[00:12:20] Speaker E: Hey, Tony.
[00:12:21] Speaker D: Hey. Yeah?
[00:12:22] Speaker E: That buzzer sound has a name. Do you know what it is?
[00:12:25] Speaker D: The what sound?
[00:12:26] Speaker E: The. The sound that comes on the line when it. You know, when you've had it off the hook too long.
[00:12:30] Speaker C: Oh.
[00:12:31] Speaker E: The phone company has a name for
[00:12:33] Speaker D: it, and that is Howler.
As in yell, holler.
[00:12:37] Speaker E: No. H O W L E R. Howler. Howler.
[00:12:42] Speaker B: The howler. That's called the Howler.
[00:12:44] Speaker E: Howler.
[00:12:45] Speaker B: Can you imitate that sound?
[00:12:47] Speaker E: Not at this hour of the morning, I can't.
[00:12:50] Speaker B: You can't?
[00:12:50] Speaker C: I can't.
[00:12:51] Speaker B: I see. You can't. Hey, May.
[00:12:53] Speaker C: Hi. Hi.
[00:12:54] Speaker B: Hi. Hi, May.
[00:12:55] Speaker C: Susan has the best overbite in the whole theatrical business.
[00:13:02] Speaker B: No kidding. And how old would she be to have that overbite?
[00:13:05] Speaker C: I have 46.
[00:13:08] Speaker B: And what do you say, Pat?
[00:13:09] Speaker C: 50.
[00:13:10] Speaker B: 50? You're saying 52. Well, whoever said 50 is correct. Yay, Bill.
[00:13:15] Speaker C: Thank you. Yeah.
[00:13:16] Speaker B: Bill, are you cheating?
[00:13:17] Speaker G: No, sir. I never even heard of the woman.
[00:13:19] Speaker B: No, but you looked up her age, did you?
[00:13:22] Speaker G: Yeah, it's right here in the phone book.
No, I'm not cheating.
[00:13:27] Speaker B: Because it would have been in the Sunday papers.
You didn't have the lid, even though it Wasn't I. Slept all day.
Slept all day.
[00:13:34] Speaker G: Didn't even pick up a paper.

[00:14:14] Speaker D: Johan. Sebastian.
[00:14:16] Speaker B: That's right. His Bach is worse than his bite. You're correct there, Constance.
Or was that it? No, that was Addie.
[00:14:23] Speaker E: It wasn't me.

[00:17:02] Speaker E: Hey, hey, hey.
[00:17:03] Speaker B: Yeah. Can you control yourself, please? These emotions just run rampant.
[00:17:07] Speaker C: I'll get back in the box.
[00:17:08] Speaker B: Okay, I'm going to ask you a date now. We'll go back to birthdays in a minute, but we mentioned Jerry Bock and it's kind of interesting, the fact that Fiorello debuted on Broadway on this very date, November 12th, 23rd, which is today's date. Hold on a minute now. Let me look that up.
I'll give you the exact information here.
[00:17:28] Speaker C: I can tell you something.
[00:17:30] Speaker B: The music. The music. Well, maybe you will in a minute, all right? Or maybe we'll just clip you off because you'll be boring.
[00:17:36] Speaker C: Yes, sir.
[00:17:37] Speaker B: But in this year, on November 23rd, the musical Fiorello, score by Jerry Bach, he wrote the music, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick and starring Tom Bosley as New York City Mayor Fiorent, Fiorello LaGuardia opened on Broadway. Yes, sir. Broadway.

Remember he used to read the comics on the radio. The people papers. Newspapers were out of print.
[00:18:43] Speaker B: Yes, well, they were out of print. The. There was. It was a newspaper strike on in New York and so he read the comics.
That's right.
[00:18:54] Speaker E: Didn't they call him the Little Flower?
[00:18:56] Speaker B: The Little Flower, that's right. Yeah, that's correct.

[00:19:04] Speaker E: My great grandmother told me.
[00:19:06] Speaker B: Oh, cut out this.
[00:19:09] Speaker E: The poop.
[00:19:10] Speaker B: What do you think?
[00:19:10] Speaker D: Having an airport named after you to carry on your name for the rest of your life.
[00:19:14] Speaker B: That's really nice.
[00:19:14] Speaker D: I think so. Would you like an airport?
[00:19:16] Speaker B: The Anthony Nesbitt. We're landing at the. We're landing at the Nesbitt.
[00:19:20] Speaker D: Just Nesbitt International. That'll be fine.
[00:19:23] Speaker C: That sounds like a me.
I'm trying to think I'm trying to think.
[00:19:27] Speaker D: I can smell the wood burning.
[00:19:28] Speaker B: I'm sorry that I seem to be pushing you.
[00:19:32] Speaker C: What? We tend to say something.
I'm gonna pass.
[00:19:35] Speaker B: No, don't pass. Take a guess.
[00:19:37] Speaker C: All right, let me see, let me see.
That was about the time when Broadway was doing pretty well.
[00:19:45] Speaker B: 60, 1960s, what you say? Okay.
Okay. And Constance.
I think she has a right to pass.
[00:19:57] Speaker D: She may have already done that.
[00:19:59] Speaker B: She may have. Yeah, that's right.
Tony, what do you say?
[00:20:04] Speaker D: What was the last answer, besides Constance? Pass.
[00:20:07] Speaker B: Of 1960. 1965.
[00:20:09] Speaker D: Okay.
[00:20:12] Speaker B: 63. 1963. Okay.
[00:20:16] Speaker D: No, 1863.
[00:20:17] Speaker B: 1863.
[00:20:24] Speaker C: What?
[00:20:26] Speaker B: Pat, what do you say?
[00:20:28] Speaker C: 55.
[00:20:30] Speaker B: 1955.
And the bill?
[00:20:35] Speaker G: 1962.
[00:20:37] Speaker B: 1962. Okay. The answer is 1959.
And that means that to May, who said 1960 was the closest guess.
[00:20:48] Speaker I: Guess.
[00:20:48] Speaker B: Guess what, Peggy Bard.
[00:20:51] Speaker C: I said I guessed.
[00:20:52] Speaker E: I guessed.
[00:20:53] Speaker C: I guessed.
[00:20:54] Speaker B: That's wonderful the way you say that. You really do make me sweat.
[00:20:58] Speaker C: I have a wonderful way with words.
[00:21:00] Speaker B: Oh, that's beautiful.
We have a couple of birthdays on Wednesday, November 25th. What are you going to use during the week?
Nothing. I think maybe this is the end of the game for the week.

[00:22:17] Speaker D: Dan Fielding.
[00:22:18] Speaker B: Dan Fielding.
That doesn't look like him. That doesn't sound like his name. Dan Fielding.
He looked like more like a Harry Needleman.
[00:22:26] Speaker D: He looked more like a Pappy Burnham. Whatever the guy's name was.
[00:22:30] Speaker B: We're going to start with you, Tony.
[00:22:31] Speaker D: Thank you.
[00:22:32] Speaker B: John La Roquette. How old will he be on Wednesday?
[00:22:36] Speaker D: 41.
[00:22:37] Speaker B: 41. Okay, Constance.
Okay.
[00:22:43] Speaker D: 41.
[00:22:43] Speaker B: She said I thought I heard 41. Yeah.
And Pat, what do you think?
[00:22:49] Speaker C: 46.
[00:22:50] Speaker B: 46. And Bill?
[00:22:53] Speaker G: 46. Sounds like a good age.
[00:22:56] Speaker B: And Addie.
[00:22:58] Speaker E: Oh, I'll be rather coquettish. And fish field this one with.
[00:23:02] Speaker B: Okay, let's get that lyra cat. Everybody get that one.
[00:23:06] Speaker E: Oh, just now they missed the fielding part of it.
I'll go with 46.
[00:23:15] Speaker B: 46.
[00:23:16] Speaker D: Those jokes are out in left fielding.
[00:23:20] Speaker B: And May, what do you say?
[00:23:22] Speaker C: I think he's 45.
[00:23:25] Speaker B: He is exactly 45. And you win that round.
[00:23:31] Speaker E: That was.
[00:23:31] Speaker B: Oh, my goodness. What a nice, hearty. What a Hattie laugh you are a laugh you have.
[00:23:35] Speaker C: I'm awake.
[00:23:36] Speaker E: I'm awake.
[00:23:36] Speaker B: No, it's a hearty laugh.
Okay, so we have. May has got two correct answers. So does Bill.
[00:23:42] Speaker E: Three.
[00:23:44] Speaker B: No, two.
[00:23:46] Speaker C: Three.
[00:23:47] Speaker B: Oh, yes, I'm sorry. I. I didn't look at the last column with Fiorello. You're absolutely right.
[00:23:53] Speaker C: Poor school teacher.
[00:23:55] Speaker B: You're right. You're right. You do have three. And Bill has.
[00:23:58] Speaker E: Wrap his knuckles.
[00:23:59] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:24:01] Speaker B: And Bill has two.
And Tony and Pat both have one apiece.
[00:24:08] Speaker E: Andy, I don't want to hear it.
[00:24:10] Speaker B: You won't hear it from me then, Andy.
[00:24:12] Speaker D: Well, at least you're tired with Constance.
[00:24:14] Speaker E: Though.
[00:24:16] Speaker B: If I'm coming over on Friday night to have some of your Yankee pot roast, I certainly won't try to embarrass you here.
Oh, God, that accent sounded like.
[00:24:26] Speaker D: That was really bad.
[00:24:26] Speaker B: Tom Bosley on the murders he wrote. Which is the worst New England accent I ever heard.
Speaking of bad accents, Ricardo Montalban also was born on November 25th.
Ricondo Montalban.
The plain. The plain. From that plus very. He's terribly sophisticated from the rich Corinthian leather.
That's right. When he does the automobile commercial, I
[00:24:56] Speaker D: don't think that any imitations from his Star Trek character, Bill.
[00:25:00] Speaker G: His.
[00:25:02] Speaker D: Yeah, he was.
[00:25:03] Speaker G: You've left me here and I don't know.
[00:25:07] Speaker B: Let me start with you this time. Bill, how old do you think? Ricardo Mutlbahn. That almost sounds like a Yiddish accent. Muddlebahn, he says. Hi, my name is Mutlbon and I run a tailor shop.
Anyway, how old, Bill, how old do
[00:25:22] Speaker G: you think ricardo Montalban? Probably 67. 67.
[00:25:30] Speaker B: 67. Okay.
And Tony.
[00:25:33] Speaker D: A well preserved 68.
[00:25:36] Speaker B: Well preserved, ladies and gentlemen. The 68.
Okay. And Addie?
[00:25:44] Speaker E: 66.
[00:25:45] Speaker B: 66.
Okay. Constance.
[00:25:50] Speaker E: She says 66 too.
[00:25:52] Speaker B: She says 66.
Okay. In May.
[00:25:56] Speaker C: Ricardo Mantelman from Mexico, the husband of Georgiana young, is approximately 74 years old.
[00:26:05] Speaker B: Oh, that was Beautiful.
[00:26:07] Speaker C: I knew what?
[00:26:08] Speaker B: I.
I'm so turned on. It doesn't really matter.
It was just a darn nice.
Okay, he is neither brother or somebody interesting.
[00:26:18] Speaker C: He's Loretta Young's brother in law.
[00:26:21] Speaker B: Yeah, but he's Loretta Young's brother in law.
[00:26:23] Speaker C: Huh? Her sister, Georgiana Young. Now, you see, I said it in Spanish and didn't even understand it.
[00:26:30] Speaker B: No, but. But isn't he the brother of somebody we should know?
[00:26:33] Speaker D: No.
[00:26:34] Speaker G: Martha's twin brother is t.
[00:26:38] Speaker I: I know.
[00:26:39] Speaker C: He is Loretta Young's brother in law.
[00:26:41] Speaker B: Okay, Pat, what do you say?
[00:26:44] Speaker C: 70.
[00:26:45] Speaker B: 70. Okay. The answer actually is 72.
[00:26:50] Speaker C: Oh.
[00:26:51] Speaker B: Which would mean that Pat, who said 70, and May, who said 74 are both the closest. May again.
May, you have won four. Now
[00:27:06] Speaker C: it's nothing but downhill from now on.
[00:27:08] Speaker B: Well, I don't know. Two for Pat and two also for Bill.
One for Tony. And I won't mention what you got, Addie.
Same as Constance. And she's asleep.
Let's do one for Thursday, which would be November 26th. And, of course, Thanksgiving Day.
Is Robert Coulet.
Oh, boy. That made me sick to my stomach.
[00:27:39] Speaker C: My husband calls him Robert the Gullet.
[00:27:43] Speaker B: Does he do that?
[00:27:44] Speaker C: Yes, he does.
[00:27:44] Speaker B: Well, your husband is really something.
[00:27:46] Speaker C: He's awake. That is.
[00:27:48] Speaker B: Okay. Your husband is never awake. Isn't he? Doesn't he sleep all day, too?
[00:27:51] Speaker I: No.
[00:27:52] Speaker C: Oh, he's pretty good tonight.
[00:27:54] Speaker B: Okay.
I think he's really awakened. But I just want to admit to
[00:28:00] Speaker C: you that I have that feeling.
[00:28:02] Speaker D: I think she's in the same syndrome as Robert. She says she has a husband but never get a chance to talk to him.
[00:28:08] Speaker B: That's right.
It may be a lie.
Pat, we're going to start with you. Robert Goulet. How old do you think?
[00:28:16] Speaker C: 53.
[00:28:17] Speaker B: 53.
Okay. And May.
[00:28:20] Speaker C: I think he's 61.
[00:28:24] Speaker B: Constance, what do you say?
Okay. And Andy?
[00:28:30] Speaker E: 63.
[00:28:31] Speaker B: 63.
And Tony?
[00:28:34] Speaker D: 59. I just read this too, and I cannot remember.
[00:28:39] Speaker B: Okay. Bill, 57. 57. Well, Tony said he just read it, couldn't remember, but actually did remember because he is 59.
[00:28:49] Speaker C: Yay, Tony.
[00:28:50] Speaker B: Another one.
[00:28:54] Speaker D: Now I have enough to share with you, Addie.
[00:28:56] Speaker E: Oh, thank you, Tony. I'm deeply touched.
[00:28:59] Speaker D: Just have some of those corn muffins ready for me when I come over.
[00:29:02] Speaker E: I want you to know I make the meanest, lightest muffins you've ever tasted.
[00:29:07] Speaker C: Good.
[00:29:10] Speaker D: Never mind.
[00:29:11] Speaker B: Okay, let's. Let's do. Let's see, we'll do one more birthday. Tina Turner also was born on November 26th. Which is she.
She's kind of faded a little bit. Has she now?
[00:29:23] Speaker G: She's faded, but she is coming out with an album come Christmas time.
[00:29:27] Speaker B: Okay. Because I've had a crush on her for a very long time, Especially when she was. Well, never mind that.
[00:29:33] Speaker D: But no, no, tell us about it.
[00:29:35] Speaker B: When she was young, still married to Ike.
[00:29:38] Speaker C: Turn.
[00:29:39] Speaker B: I had a poster which I. At another radio station, I used to keep that hung up on the wall in my office. I had an office there. Here I'm treated like dirt, but there I had an office.
Anyway, I had the poster up and I used to look at that and lust after this lady, day after day, it made me the broadcaster I am. Because I tried hard.
[00:30:00] Speaker D: Because I just paid $15aminute for this 1,900norm line to hear your deepest, darkest fantasies. And that was it.
[00:30:07] Speaker B: That was it. That was my money back. Okay, that'll be 7.95 if you want to hear another fantasy. 7.95 per minute.
[00:30:14] Speaker D: Okay, let's see that Robert Goulet fantasy.
[00:30:16] Speaker B: Okay, Tina Turner, let's start with. Let's see. We'll start with you, May.
How old is Tina?
[00:30:23] Speaker C: He has beautiful legs.
[00:30:25] Speaker D: Oh, legs up to here.
[00:30:27] Speaker B: Oh, God, yeah. Oh, on that. On that poster, I'm only.
Let me try to hold myself back a little bit.
How old do you think she is?
[00:30:40] Speaker F: I really.
[00:30:42] Speaker C: Around 56.
[00:30:44] Speaker B: Around 56 says May. She was born Annie Mae Bullock. Did you know that? In Nutbush, Tennessee.
Does that take away some of the glamour? It certainly does. She's from Nutbush, Tennessee.
[00:30:59] Speaker E: No wonder she left.
[00:31:01] Speaker B: Her name is posted on the city limits sign in Nutbush, Tennessee.
She has a song called Nutbush City Limits. Did you know that?
[00:31:13] Speaker D: What's posted on the sign? Her real name or. This is the home of Tina Turner, formerly known as.
[00:31:17] Speaker B: As Annie May Bullock. You know, I don't know.
[00:31:20] Speaker D: I wonder if she's any relation to that Bullock guy with the watches.
[00:31:26] Speaker B: Might be the same person. Might be her dad or something. Yeah. Ike and Tina Turner were husband, wife, singing duo until they separated in 1976.
Biggest hit, Proud Mary in 1971.
[00:31:39] Speaker E: Keep on burning.
[00:31:40] Speaker B: The violent breakup left Tina on welfare before her giant comeback. Do you know she was on welfare for a while? I didn't know that either.
[00:31:48] Speaker C: She had a tough time. She really did.
[00:31:50] Speaker J: Yeah.
[00:31:50] Speaker B: Her biggest recording, what's Love Got To do with it in 1984. I do recall that she was on.
[00:31:56] Speaker D: She was that destitute. If you want to use the. Yes, up until that. That.
[00:32:01] Speaker G: That big release, she was Doing a lot of nightclubs.
[00:32:04] Speaker E: Wow.
[00:32:04] Speaker G: Before she made her comeback.
[00:32:07] Speaker B: I wish she'd called and told me because I was still in love with her. From the poster.
[00:32:11] Speaker C: She had a couple of boys, didn't she? Had a couple of sons.
[00:32:15] Speaker E: They have a couple.
[00:32:16] Speaker C: Couple children.
[00:32:17] Speaker B: Could be. I don't know that if.
[00:32:18] Speaker C: Yeah, two boys, I think.
[00:32:21] Speaker I: I think.
[00:32:21] Speaker B: All right, all right.
[00:32:22] Speaker D: She had them with me. Yes, she has a couple.
[00:32:25] Speaker G: They're Tony's love child.
[00:32:29] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:32:30] Speaker C: Didn't he go to. Doesn't he serve time for drug addiction?
[00:32:33] Speaker J: Me?
[00:32:34] Speaker C: No, no, sorry.
[00:32:37] Speaker B: I. Turner.
[00:32:38] Speaker E: You.
[00:32:38] Speaker B: Me?
[00:32:38] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:32:39] Speaker B: Okay. I don't know.
[00:32:40] Speaker G: Yeah, he did.
[00:32:41] Speaker C: I don't know. It was very sad.
[00:32:43] Speaker B: I don't like to hear those kind of stories because they're pure and sweet and lovely.
[00:32:46] Speaker C: True, true.
[00:32:47] Speaker B: And I only want to hear about Shirley Temple and Michelle Pfeiffer.
Anyway, May said 56, and Constance says okay.
We're giving her a fair chance.
[00:33:03] Speaker E: Hey, listen.
[00:33:03] Speaker D: At least she turned her radio down in the background, I'll give her that.
Who's this?
[00:33:11] Speaker C: I think.
[00:33:11] Speaker D: I think May's talking to her cat.
[00:33:13] Speaker I: I am.
[00:33:14] Speaker C: I am talking to him. Oh, he's wandering up down the bin.
[00:33:18] Speaker D: See, we fellow cat people just know when you hear someone out of nose.
What's the matter? What's the matter?
[00:33:22] Speaker K: She's not.
[00:33:23] Speaker D: She doesn't care about her husband. She's not talking about what's the matter.
There he is. He's, like, gasping for air.
[00:33:29] Speaker C: What's up?
[00:33:30] Speaker D: That's the cat.
[00:33:32] Speaker B: Andy, what do you say? How old is Tina Turner?
[00:33:36] Speaker C: Huh?
[00:33:37] Speaker F: Let's see.
[00:33:41] Speaker E: 53, and then I'll turn her over to you.
[00:33:43] Speaker C: Oh.
[00:33:50] Speaker D: Just sounded like a bunch of people seeing the fireworks this way.
[00:33:56] Speaker B: Tony, what do you think?
[00:33:57] Speaker D: 54. I believe I read this someplace, too,
[00:33:59] Speaker C: but I don't remember for sure.
[00:34:01] Speaker E: Books away from him.
[00:34:03] Speaker C: There's collusion there.
[00:34:05] Speaker B: What do you say, Pat?
That's the one.
[00:34:09] Speaker D: I'm not sure if it's 55 or 54.
[00:34:12] Speaker B: What do you say, Bill?
[00:34:13] Speaker G: I think she just hit the big five zero.
[00:34:16] Speaker B: Big five zero. Okay. The actual age is 54. Yes, he read it correctly. Tony did that correctly. Okay, we have one more. We have one more to go, and I must give you the lineup.
So far we have May with four and Tony with three.
Making a comeback, making a comeback. Sneaking from the inside rail, inside the
[00:34:40] Speaker D: crotch, body, lift and slam.
[00:34:41] Speaker B: Body inside, crotch, body, lift and slam is exactly right.
Bill Wilson has two, and Pat has two, and.
[00:34:51] Speaker E: I don't want to hear it.
[00:34:52] Speaker B: And Addie don't want to hear it.
[00:34:54] Speaker E: Ever since we're to going Tony into that literacy program and he's been reading a lot.
[00:34:59] Speaker B: He was better off when he couldn't read at all, wasn't he?
And Constance has no correct answers, too, so. You're not alone, Addie. You're tied with a lady who's sleeping through everything.
I hope that makes you feel good.
[00:35:13] Speaker D: That's not a low point.
[00:35:16] Speaker B: Okay, here's one more. This is a date.
A year. We're going to guess now.
[00:35:20] Speaker D: I have no chance of telling.
[00:35:21] Speaker B: Okay. No, no, no. I wouldn't say, say that. The first edition of Life, the picture magazine created by Henry R. Luce, was published on November 23rd.
[00:35:32] Speaker D: Hold on. What's his last year?
[00:35:33] Speaker B: Henry Luce.
[00:35:36] Speaker D: I didn't know R was his middle initial.
[00:35:38] Speaker B: Henry R. Loose.
[00:35:39] Speaker E: He was married to Claire Booth.
[00:35:41] Speaker B: Claire Booth Loose, that's right.
And also Time magazine, Sports Illustrated, whole big bunch of things. This is again November 23rd. It happened.
[00:35:54] Speaker G: Was it Life or Time magazine?
[00:35:56] Speaker B: It was Life. Life. That was established on this date on November 20th. Today is also my mother's birthday. I don't want to get too sentimental about this, but my mother was born November 23rd in the year.
[00:36:09] Speaker E: Birthday, Mom.
[00:36:11] Speaker B: Well, a little late for that now, but we appreciate it anyway. Thank you.
[00:36:15] Speaker D: What year was she?
[00:36:16] Speaker B: No, she was a nice lady. She. She died about nine or 10 years ago, but she was born in 1903, so she would be. What? She'd be 89 today. She was 79 when she died, so it must have been just 10 years ago.
Yeah, she was okay. She was a nice lady. Life magazine. Anyway, the year.
Let's start with Pat.
What year did Life magazine start, but on this day, November 23rd?
[00:36:47] Speaker C: 34.
[00:36:49] Speaker B: 1934. Okay. In May 35. 1935.
Constance.
Okay, Addie, I'm sorry.
[00:37:04] Speaker E: 38.
[00:37:05] Speaker B: 1938.
Okay. And Tony?
[00:37:09] Speaker D: 1939.
[00:37:12] Speaker B: 1939.
[00:37:15] Speaker D: You weren't gonna get away with it.
[00:37:16] Speaker C: Crash.
[00:37:18] Speaker B: I remember.
You know, when Life came out, I was. Well, never mind, because I don't know what to say.
So let me get on with it.
Bill, what do you think? What year was Life magazine published?
[00:37:38] Speaker G: 1940.
[00:37:40] Speaker B: 1940, you say? Okay, here's the actual answer.
Handed to me by a mini skirted, young, beautiful lady named Bobo.
[00:37:53] Speaker C: That's right.
[00:37:55] Speaker B: That's right.
Bobo was my dog. And he's a. He's a male. But anyway.
Pardon me.
[00:38:03] Speaker E: Wasn't it Bambi?
[00:38:06] Speaker B: Oh, stop that.
Straighten out, would you? Why don't you grow up? Just grow up.
Okay, Life magazine was 1936. Oh, okay, okay. And May said 1934. 35, rather.
So you were the closest big winner. Anybody say 37? Nobody did.
So May was. May won that one. And that means that May has got four, five correct answers.
And you won a tasteless, tacky, nothing prize.
[00:38:35] Speaker C: Oh, boy.
[00:38:37] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:38:37] Speaker B: You're glad about that, huh?
[00:38:39] Speaker C: I haven't played for months, stored it
[00:38:43] Speaker B: all up, and you're going to get a worthless gift. Are you excited about that?
[00:38:47] Speaker C: Well, most of the gifts, Uncle Norman, that you send to me appear to be worthless. But they are always useful and practical and to the point. And they come.
[00:38:58] Speaker D: They work well in the fireplace, don't they?
[00:39:00] Speaker C: They sure do.
[00:39:01] Speaker E: I see in my hold up the
[00:39:03] Speaker C: note paper and everything. It was great.
[00:39:07] Speaker B: I'm sorry, Addie. Were you saying something?
[00:39:09] Speaker E: I said my tacky gifts hold up the end of the couch where the leg broke off.
[00:39:14] Speaker B: Well, I'm awful pleased that they serve some kind of purpose.
[00:39:17] Speaker D: They line the bird cage, too.
[00:39:19] Speaker B: Oh, swell.
Okay, I want to thank also wrap garbage. And I want to thank a lot of you for playing the game, including Constance. Are you there yet?
[00:39:30] Speaker D: Leave her until the end. We'll say goodbye to her.
[00:39:32] Speaker B: Keep her on. Okay.
[00:39:34] Speaker C: Why not?
[00:39:34] Speaker B: Addie?
[00:39:35] Speaker E: Yes, my love?
[00:39:36] Speaker B: You're a nice person. And it doesn't matter whether or not you win or lose. It's how you play the game. And you really played it badly.
[00:39:45] Speaker E: I play it for the sheer joy of your company.
[00:39:48] Speaker B: You're a wonderful person. After all, what else would you be doing at quarter to four in a month?
[00:39:53] Speaker E: Well, pretty soon it's going to be daylight and I gotta go out and feed the chicken.
Okay.
[00:40:02] Speaker B: Okay, Addie. Thanks a lot.
[00:40:04] Speaker F: All right.
[00:40:04] Speaker B: Thank you. Good night, Addy. May, you hang in there because we want Tony to take your name and address so we can send you another worthless nothingness.
[00:40:13] Speaker C: Did you. Do you remember the time that you sent me a divining rod? No.
[00:40:19] Speaker B: That was the. Tony sent you that?
[00:40:21] Speaker C: Oh, God.
[00:40:22] Speaker B: It wasn't a divining rod. It was a.
[00:40:24] Speaker C: It was a water.
[00:40:24] Speaker B: It was a weather stick.
[00:40:26] Speaker C: A weather stick? Oh, I thought that was the most wonderful thing that ever was.
I love it. It's hanging in the hall out here.
I love it every time.
[00:40:35] Speaker B: Is that how you. Is that how you're supposed to use it, Tony? Hanging. Hanging in the wall?
[00:40:39] Speaker C: Well, I just thought it was so great. I won't let anybody touch it. I just say, isn't that. You know where I got that? And I said, no. Where did you get that?
[00:40:49] Speaker F: No.
[00:40:49] Speaker D: Where do you have it hanging? So I don't mean to get personal, but.
[00:40:53] Speaker C: No, it's hanging.
[00:40:55] Speaker B: And what do you have hanging?
[00:40:57] Speaker C: I mean, I'm old enough to be your mother, dear.
It's hanging in the hall when you come in the front hall at the
[00:41:04] Speaker E: top of the stairs.
[00:41:06] Speaker D: Okay. Does it actually work? Even though it's inside, you're supposed to hang it outside.
[00:41:09] Speaker C: Well, nothing works, so it doesn't matter.
[00:41:12] Speaker B: Yeah, that's right.
Try the light switch. Nothing goes wrong.
Everything is sort of like that. Okay, I'm sorry.
[00:41:21] Speaker D: No, I just want to say so may I believe, is one of the maybe two people out of the thousands of weather sticks we sent out over the past year that actually received it unbroken?
[00:41:31] Speaker C: Oh, no, no, it came fine. It was just good.
[00:41:34] Speaker B: You could thank Tony for the packing job.
[00:41:36] Speaker C: Oh, it was just in an ordinary package, but it came five.
[00:41:39] Speaker B: Yeah.
Anyway, Pat, thank you very much. Always a pleasure to have you with us.
[00:41:44] Speaker C: Thanks.
[00:41:45] Speaker B: Thank you. Pat sounds like he's about falling off to sleep too. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And of course Bill will be catching your like your latest traffic report in about 15 minutes.
[00:41:54] Speaker G: Yes, sir.
[00:41:55] Speaker B: And you want tomorrow too?
[00:41:57] Speaker G: No, I'm not. I'm not on until Wednesday night.
[00:42:01] Speaker B: Well, I'll be here then too, and it'll be wonderful.
Thank you so much. Okay, take care. Okay.
And let's see. Constance.
Okay, we'll get rid of Constance now too. I think we gave her a fair enough chance.
[00:42:16] Speaker D: You know, she gave it her best shot.
[00:42:18] Speaker B: Well, if you want to call it that.
And Tony, I know you want to hang up on me right in the middle of a sentence.
[00:42:24] Speaker K: I get.
[00:42:25] Speaker B: And he did. Okay, And I think. You know what I'll do? I think I'll hang up on myself right in the middle of a sentence, but I'm coming back anyhow. Okay, thank you very, very much, all of you.
[00:42:40] Speaker C: Goodnight.
[00:42:40] Speaker L: Does your baby suffer from red irritating diaper rash?
[00:42:44] Speaker I: All of it was pretty much like a road rash to me. It looked like it would be uncomfortable, but she's, I guess you could say, used to him.
[00:42:52] Speaker L: Now your baby can get relief from diaper rash with Baby Gold Bond Medicated Powder. Just listen to Robin McIntyre of Tracy, California.
[00:43:01] Speaker I: Baby Gold Bond. I think mostly because of the texture of the powder that I feel more comfortable putting it on her. It doesn't feel as coarse.
[00:43:09] Speaker L: Baby Gold Bond Medicated Powder combines zinc oxide with the finest talcum powder to relieve baby's red irritated skin. Baby Gold Bond also protects baby's sensitive skin against diaper rash. Chafing and minor skin irritations.
[00:43:24] Speaker I: It's made her more comfortable.
I just felt like the Baby Gold Bond was a lot softer and smoother and it worked a lot faster. I'm gonna go buy some Baby Gold Bond.
[00:43:35] Speaker L: For your baby's diaper rash, try Baby Gold Bond Medicated Powder. Now at drugstores and supermarkets everywhere. Use only as directed.

The five day WBC AccuWeather forecast from meteorologist Jim Green calls for continued cloudy and showery today with highs in the low 60s.
Cooler near the coast Monday night. Tonight. Monday night, cloudy with drizzle. Lows 44.
Tuesday, cloudy to partly sunny. Highs 48.
Wednesday, clouds and sun with a combination of both, with high temperatures, about 48 degrees. And Thanksgiving Day on Thursday, cloudy, chance of rain with high temperatures, 48 degrees, but it's quite mild this morning, although we've had some great deal of rain.
In fact, let's see, it's still raining pretty good now. It's eased up just a little bit, but it was coming down very, very strongly for a while and foggy in some areas and all of that, but mild. It's 60 degrees in Boston right now. 60 degrees. And we'll take another call right after this.
[00:46:48] Speaker H: When's the last time you tried Ovaltine?
[00:46:51] Speaker L: My kids drink it every day. They don't like plain milk, but they love Oval.
Whoever said things had to taste bad to be good for you?
[00:47:00] Speaker H: It wasn't Ovaltine. Classic Ovaltine not only tastes good, it contains 10 essential vitamins and minerals, nutrients that growing youngsters need and want.
[00:47:10] Speaker L: With Ovaltine, it isn't just the good taste. It's the fact that Ovaltine's loaded with nutrients. That's something you don't get with Nestle's.
[00:47:18] Speaker E: Quick.
[00:47:19] Speaker H: Just two glasses of classic Ovaltine and milk provide almost 100% of the US daily recommended allowance of B complex vitamins A, C and D, plus lots of other important nutrients the body needs for strong bones, strong teeth, good eyesight and much, much more.
[00:47:37] Speaker L: The truth is, we all drink Ovaltine. It brings back wonderful memories for me and the whole family loves the taste.
[00:47:45] Speaker H: Classic Ovaltine. Ovaltine tastes great and it's great for you. Ovaltine.
[00:47:53] Speaker B: Okay, the time is 5 minutes before 4 o' clock here at WBZ.
Lots of water on the roads, hydroplaning, all that kind of stuff. So be very, very careful with those of you driving at this moment.
Ann Marie in Hyde Park. Good morning.
[00:48:08] Speaker F: Good morning. How are you?
[00:48:09] Speaker B: Just fine. How are you doing this morning?
[00:48:12] Speaker F: Okay.
[00:48:12] Speaker B: Good.
[00:48:12] Speaker F: I was listening to the birthday game.
[00:48:15] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:48:15] Speaker F: And I was just saying to Tony, I wonder if Constance is going to wake up in a while and call in.
[00:48:23] Speaker B: I know she may very well do that. And she's calling Nakasten's calls from where? Weymouth.
So that would not be a toll call. That's always kind of tough if it's costing you money and you wake up and you realize the phone is still off the hook.
[00:48:38] Speaker F: Oh, yeah.
[00:48:39] Speaker B: And you've called it. You know, you've called outside the area.
[00:48:42] Speaker F: Well, after a while, it won't make any noise or anything.
[00:48:46] Speaker B: No, after a while it will, because we just hung up now. So it should be making noise at
[00:48:50] Speaker F: this moment, probably for about 60 seconds.
[00:48:54] Speaker B: Is that all it does then?
[00:48:55] Speaker F: Yeah, and then it stops. And then.
And then it's like a deadline. If anyone tries to call her house, they'll get a busy signal. So it'll be interesting if she call her house back and see if the phone rings or if you get a busy signal.
[00:49:08] Speaker B: We could do that. I don't know whether. Do you have a phone number, Tony?
Oh, yeah. Well, maybe we'll try that.
[00:49:15] Speaker F: You know, that would be interesting, because a few times when I didn't, you know, if my phone hasn't been all the way down, you know, on the. On the cradle of the phone.
[00:49:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:49:27] Speaker F: People said they tried to call me all day and the phone would have a busy signal on it.
And. But if you pick it up for a while, you know, if you keep picking it up and you don't play with the button a little bit, you get a deadline.
But then after a while, it will work again, you know, if you pick it up, put it down.
[00:49:46] Speaker B: You know what I like about you, Anne Marie? You're such an experienced woman.
[00:49:49] Speaker F: Oh, I know.
[00:49:50] Speaker B: And all these little foibles of the world.
[00:49:52] Speaker F: I'm hoping to be in the birthday game tonight.
[00:49:55] Speaker B: Okay. Okay. That'd be good.
[00:49:57] Speaker F: Tony told me to call later.
[00:49:58] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:49:59] Speaker F: Because if somebody else is on.
[00:50:01] Speaker B: That's right. Yeah. Tony's got the next couple of nights or three nights off. Yeah. So we won't be reunited again until later in the week.
[00:50:08] Speaker F: So what are you doing on Thanksgiving?
[00:50:11] Speaker B: Yes. My two daughters and I are joining a whole lot of cousins and some members of our family, that is. Well, cousins are members of our family.
[00:50:20] Speaker F: Right.
[00:50:21] Speaker B: And that we're going to spend the day with relatives.
[00:50:23] Speaker F: Oh, nice. That's nice.
[00:50:25] Speaker B: We did that last year, too. Last year was the tough year.
[00:50:28] Speaker C: Oh, yeah.
[00:50:28] Speaker B: Well, this is the tough year, too, but we'll be with people in our family and people we love, so that will make it easier.
[00:50:35] Speaker F: Do you have to make anything or anything?
[00:50:37] Speaker B: Yes, but fortunately, having two daughters, they're the ones who make it.
[00:50:40] Speaker F: All right. You just get to eat it, I
[00:50:42] Speaker B: get to eat it, and they get to make it.
[00:50:45] Speaker C: Oh, good.
[00:50:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:50:46] Speaker F: Well, maybe you can help them out with the dishes.
[00:50:48] Speaker B: Hey, Anne Marie, you keep a civil tongue in your head.
[00:50:52] Speaker F: Well, I. I hope, Norm, that you have a nice holiday.
[00:50:55] Speaker B: I hope you do, too, Anne Marie, what are you doing for the holiday?
[00:50:58] Speaker F: I'm going to visit my family.
[00:51:00] Speaker B: Where are they?
[00:51:00] Speaker F: In Rhode Island.
[00:51:02] Speaker B: Oh, you live alone In Hyde Park.
[00:51:05] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:51:06] Speaker B: Okay. Is that lonesome? Living alone?
[00:51:08] Speaker F: No, I like it.
[00:51:09] Speaker B: It is kind of nice. You get up in the middle of the night in your underwear and walk around.
[00:51:13] Speaker E: Oh, yeah.
[00:51:13] Speaker F: You can do whatever you cook in the middle of the night.
[00:51:16] Speaker B: That's right. Anything you want to do? Want to put the radio at the television set on?
[00:51:20] Speaker F: Oh, sure.
[00:51:21] Speaker B: Do anything at all. Nobody says Ann Marie, don't You know, it's almost. It's almost 4 o' clock when you get back to bed. For God's sake.
[00:51:30] Speaker F: Really?
[00:51:30] Speaker B: No, you don't have to worry about that.
[00:51:31] Speaker F: Nope, not a thing.
And then, you know, go to bed when I want and don't have to worry about people making noise and keep me awake.
[00:51:39] Speaker B: Now, do you work during the day?
[00:51:41] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:51:42] Speaker B: Oh, that kind of spoils it. So that means you have to get to bed at a reasonable time during the week.
[00:51:46] Speaker F: Oh, yeah. Well, I've been awake since around 2, so I know I'll be tired and fall asleep early tonight because I didn't go to bed till like 10:30. You know what I mean?
[00:51:56] Speaker B: So what time do you have to be at work?
[00:51:58] Speaker F: 8.
[00:52:00] Speaker B: Oh, won't you be sleepy all day?
[00:52:02] Speaker F: Oh, yeah. I'll probably start getting tired around 10,
[00:52:06] Speaker B: 10 o' clock this morning.
[00:52:08] Speaker F: I'll have to drink coffee. Keep me awake.
[00:52:12] Speaker B: I'm delighted that you. You're sacrificing your entire career just to tune in.
[00:52:18] Speaker F: I have fun at work though, too.
They'll find a way to keep me.
[00:52:22] Speaker B: What kind of work do you do?
[00:52:27] Speaker F: I develop X rays at one of the hospitals.
[00:52:30] Speaker B: Oh, you're skilled with craftsmen.
[00:52:32] Speaker F: Oh, yeah, we have fun.
[00:52:33] Speaker B: Okay, that's great. Hey, thanks a lot for calling and best. And if I don't talk to you before Thursday, have a great Thanksgiving.

[00:53:10] Speaker A: Another classic in the books. Before we go, let's hear from our friend Michael Bissonette with voice power technology.
[00:53:18] Speaker K: You know I can't program my own vcr. Now, I'm not stupid. In fact, I'm the president of my own company. But eight out of ten of us can't program our own VCRs. I'm Michael Bissonette. I founded Voice Power Technology to solve problems just like this.
We've developed a VCR remote control that's controlled by your voice. You just speak right into it and your VCR obeys. For instance, if you wanted to record a movie next Monday, you'd say, record channel seven. Monday, 7pm to 9pm and your VCR will automatically record channel seven on Monday night from 7pm to 9:00pm it's honestly just that simple. Our voice remote works with virtually all brands of VCRs and requires no installation of any kind. Now, anyone that can speak can program their vcr. Take my word for it. It's just that simple.
