Listener comments!
	👻 7:46pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	8:58pm Imaginos: Ahoy!
	9:01pm Imaginos: Its a shame you can't do Old Harry's Game . I bet the listeners would get a kick out of it
	9:01pm Webhamster Henry: Oo Polyamorous Rocky this week.
	9:01pm MHLee: hello
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @8:58 Nice to see you in the chat.
	9:02pm univac: Hello, hello.
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:01 It's gonna get spicy!
	9:02pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:02 Thank you
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ MHLee @9:01 Nice to see you, MHLee! Sit and stay a a spell.
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ univac @9:02 Ahhh, it's univac! I think the party is ready to start.
	9:03pm univac: Let's go!
	👻 9:03pm Austin Rich: Of course, this show is about relationships... and aired a couple days after Valentine's Day, originally.
	9:05pm Webhamster Henry: More corny accents like last week....
	👻 9:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:05 It's the stock and trade of Mid-Century Dramas on the radio.
	👻 9:07pm Austin Rich: ↳ univac @9:03 I wanna write a "noir" story set in our universe, with Polly as a sort of "detective."
	9:08pm univac: ↳ Austin Rich @9:07 That needs to happen.
	👻 9:08pm Austin Rich: Who had seven minutes for Rocky's "knockout"?
	9:08pm Webhamster Henry: Down he goes!
	👻 9:08pm Austin Rich: I forgot about "Honey-Pear."
	9:11pm Imaginos: Honey or not Rock's day always goes pear shaped
	👻 9:12pm yerfriendpaul: Hey Austin, everyone!
	👻 9:12pm Austin Rich: Maybe I am not doing it right, but there have been very few "pet names" that have actually stuck in any lasting relationship I've been in. They seem to last about two or three days, and then we forget in lieu of more practical relationship concerns.
	👻 9:12pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:12 yerfriendpaul! I always enjoy when you drop in.
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:11 Ha.
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: "It's real illegal, you know."
	9:15pm Dean: "But we don't want the Irish!"
	👻 9:15pm Austin Rich: I'm not so sure that "Irish Clubhouse" is very PC these days.
	9:16pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Austin Rich @9:08 hahah meta joke!
	👻 9:16pm Austin Rich: "From Here to Eternity." I think that's the second time Frank has sung at all on this show, and only for a moment. (Like the last time he did.)
	👻 9:16pm yerfriendpaul: Ha ha! Calling out Sinatra
	👻 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @9:16 And it was a covert plug for his new movie, too...
	👻 9:18pm Austin Rich: I do love the meta-jokes on this show.
	9:18pm Imaginos: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:16 If you want meta, look up Haunted Honeymoon.
	👻 9:18pm Austin Rich: A fleeting "Rube Goldberg" reference...
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Dean @9:15 Ha! Thanks for coming over, Dean. Enjoy the show.
	👻 9:24pm Austin Rich: The musical refrain, repeating from the beginning.
	9:26pm Webhamster Henry: that was a funny coda!
	👻 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:26 I do love this show.
	👻 9:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:18 You know, I think I saw this movie when I was a kid, and completely forgot about it until now! What a weird memory jolt.
	👻 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Engaged In Murder"" by "Bold Venture" The Sound on this one is not that great, and I did a little EQ to try and improve things, for this broadcast. Hopefully you can listen "through" the weird audio, and enjoy the Bogart and Bacall, instead.
	9:32pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:28 Its a movie where a newlywed couple plays a newlywed couple playing a newlywed couple
	👻 9:32pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Engaged In Murder"" by "Bold Venture" The "Daddy" stuff is sort of weird with these day. The backstory is that Bogart's best friend is Sailor's father, and when the father died, Bogart's character "stepped in." They are clearly in a relationship, but... it's very weird, all around.
	9:33pm wenzo: Howdee Howdee, good hello Austin Rich & his merry band of oldtimey radio enthusiasts!
	9:34pm Imaginos: ↳ wenzo @9:33 Ahoy!
	👻 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Engaged In Murder"" by "Bold Venture" This episode (and the one we played last week) sort of straddle the "Valentine's Day" date, and both have relationships that are key to the stories. Not precisely Valentine's Day fare, but as close as you get on Bold Venture.
	👻 9:34pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @9:33 Wenzo! Thanks for dropping in. Stay a spell, and enjoy the show!
	9:38pm Mr Fab: Hey Austin! “Tommygun Rickshaw” would be a good band/album name.
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:38 Yes it would! Thanks for dropping in, Mr. Fab! Just in time for some BOLD VENTURE!
	9:38pm Imaginos: ↳ Mr Fab @9:38 Indeed it would be.
	9:39pm asheville jon: Howdy folks
	👻 9:39pm Austin Rich: ↳ asheville jon @9:39 Hooray! It's Ashville Jon!
	👻 9:42pm yerfriendpaul: Curious how many people have died on their boat? I feel they should trade it in for something less cursed
	9:43pm univac: Thanks for the olde tyme radios Austin! Gotta run! High body count in this episode!
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ univac @9:43 Indeed! See ya next time.
	👻 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:42 I feel like it's probably a higher number than we think.
	👻 9:57pm yerfriendpaul: Ha ha! Sailor has the antidote!
	👻 9:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @9:57 Usually.
	9:59pm Imaginos: Can you imagine how much otr you could do if you could also use shows from the UK and Australia?
	10:01pm asheville jon: Hi! Just lurkin...
	10:03pm Mr Fab: Wasn’t that Vincent Price stuff you were playing from England?
	10:04pm Imaginos: ↳ Mr Fab @10:03 Good point.
	10:08pm asheville jon: Thanks for all that info
	10:11pm Imaginos: Awesome!
	10:12pm asheville jon: I'm gonna be sad when bold venture ends
	👻 10:13pm yerfriendpaul: Looking forward to hearing the Burns/Allen stuff!
	10:13pm Imaginos: ↳ asheville jon @10:12 So am I
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:13 I was seriously laughing alone in my studio while reviewing those shows. It's great!
	10:17pm asheville jon: Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
	👻 10:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ asheville jon @10:17 Don't you remember?
	10:17pm Imaginos: Had a long day so gonna turn in. But will be back tomorrow night
	👻 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @10:17 See you next time!
	10:18pm asheville jon: Hee hee
	10:18pm asheville jon: Later imaginos
	10:18pm laurapanic: late to the show today....but this sounds interesting!
	👻 10:18pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @10:18 laurapanic! Thanks for droppin' by!
	👻 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: "Radio in the 1920s (Part 1)" by "Unpublished Hist... I find this amateur documentarian to be fantastic, and they are VERY dedicated to their craft. They do a ton of research, and look at source material for their references. I find it very cool.
	👻 10:24pm Austin Rich: "The vast wilderness of the city park." How big is that park?
	👻 10:26pm Austin Rich: Shot in the neck and shoulder. But he's fine!
	👻 10:30pm yerfriendpaul: The sound effects!
	👻 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @10:30 And the live organ! I just love it.
	10:32pm univac: And, I'm back!
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ univac @10:32 Yay! Always nice to have you back.
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: Looks like we'll go about 8 or 9 minutes over. Guess my long ramble about the history of recording tape went a little long...
	10:38pm univac: This opening is so so good.
	10:39pm wenzo: Cool noise intro there
	10:39pm univac: ↳ Austin Rich @10:33 I missed that! I'll have to grab the archive
	10:39pm wenzo: Very day in the life
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Time And Time Again"" by "X-Minus One" We have heard this story before, on Dimension X. But this is a more modern production. We're getting close to the point where all the stories that COULD be remade from Dimension X, have been. We should be getting some new stories, soon.
	10:41pm Mr Fab: ↳ wenzo @10:39 ha, yes
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ wenzo @10:39 Good point. I hadn't thought of that.
	👻 10:43pm Austin Rich: Can you imagine being an adult and having to re-live your life as a 13 year old? I would not look forward to the experience.
	10:44pm laurapanic: I have the same belief about guns, but more
	👻 10:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @10:44 I have a feeling most of the things they used to do should probably done with more VIM these days.
	10:45pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @10:45 INCREASE ALL THE VIM
	👻 10:46pm yerfriendpaul: The best insults!
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: "Go take a flying jet to the moon," is still pretty milquetoast.
	👻 10:47pm Austin Rich: It's funny that these kids know College Fight Songs well enough to parody them. See, this was before the internet. Kids were bored... and weird...
	👻 10:48pm Austin Rich: "Tarzan again." And then a joke about comics. Damn, that father has got my number... as a kid, and now.
	10:48pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:43 Apart from buying Apple stock, I would not relish that either. Tho maybe I could see more shows I missed the first time.
	👻 10:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:48 That's probably the only thing I would do: go to as many shows as I could.
	10:49pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @10:47 I don't even think my college has a song.
	👻 10:49pm Austin Rich: This father has so many guns...
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:49 Someone told me that Portland State has a Fight Song, and I was floored. I was a student there for at least 6 years, and an employee for four. And I never knew we had a Fight Song.
	10:53pm Mr Fab: I love how you could just get a gun to put a dog down, and it was perfectly ordinary.
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: The whole "shooting a dying dog" excuse seems really weird, even in the BEST of circumstances. Like, aren't there vets, or a local farm-hand available?
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: Everyone remembers the siege of Buffalo, during the Third World War, back in 1975?
	10:55pm laurapanic: this show is WILD
	10:56pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @10:55 futuristic 1975!! Writing 3 novels.
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: There was a brief shout-out to the broadcaster H. V. Kaltenborn in that bit of dialog. en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 10:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @10:56 Yeah, writing three novels is TOTALLY fantasy.
	👻 10:58pm Austin Rich: Journalism school... can't get a reporting job, writes novels instead. Story checks out...
	👻 11:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @10:57 H.V. Kaltenborn is best remembered as having a brief appearance - as himself - in, "The Day The Earth Stood Still."
	👻 11:02pm yerfriendpaul: Zemeckis must’ve heard this broadcast
	👻 11:02pm Austin Rich: We've got a few minutes left. Thanks everyone for joining me on this wild ride tonight.
	👻 11:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ yerfriendpaul @11:02 I think so, too.
	👻 11:03pm yerfriendpaul: Thank you Austin! Enjoyed the show!
	👻 11:06pm Austin Rich: The stark-raving father, constantly talking about WWIII and how is son will die in it, is going to drive this father mad in a very weird way.
	11:07pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: ""Time And Time Again"" by "X-Minus One" Great show! Cool story.
	👻 11:07pm yerfriendpaul: Enjoyed that one! I think the Dad was successful unless my history is mistaken
	👻 11:07pm WR: Thank you, Austin. We heard a version of this before. Didn't remember the finish. Greatly enjoyed it. Cheers,
	11:08pm univac: Super fun! Thx Austin!
	👻 11:08pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone!
