WFMU: Dimestore Radio Theater with Austin Rich: Playlist from August 19, 2024

Listener comments!
	👻 3:55pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	9:02pm Imaginos: Ahoy
	👻 9:03pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:02 Thanks for droppin' in! Sit and stay a spell. The Digital Salon is Open!
	9:03pm Webhamster Henry: Eugor is here, shampooing his single hair with Fitch's!
	👻 9:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:03 He has no Bitch, with Fitch!
	👻 9:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:03 I just listened to a future episode where Eugor is described in a little more detail than normal. No spoilers, but: I think he might need more Fitch than suspected.
	👻 9:08pm Austin Rich: Aside from some cosmetic "clicks" and "pops," the sound on the original archive of this episode isn't bad, considering the bad shape that a lot of Rogue's Gallery episodes are in. Still, I did some audio separation between the voices and the backing sounds, and some very slight EQ to round out the audio.
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: We've got a Death by Electrocution and a nosy religious father. Lot of noir tropes in 10 minutes, now that the femme fatal has arrived.
	👻 9:12pm Austin Rich: "I might give one to each." Is that as dirty as I think it is?
	9:13pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @9:08 i like pops
	👻 9:13pm Austin Rich: I'm usually a little nervous to do too much noise reduction (if I can avoid it), as a lot of noise reduction tools can often sand off certain qualities in the rest of the audio for the show. (The voices can sound weird, or as if they are swallowing their consonants, the music can sound messed up, etc.) So unless the audio is already murky for other reasons, I try to do a little noise reduction as possible.
	9:15pm Webhamster Henry: $100K in 1947 => $1,410,493.27 in 2024
	👻 9:15pm WR: Halo Eugor.
	👻 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:15 Oh, thanks for the calculation! I usually try to drop those in.
	👻 9:16pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @9:13 Thanks for joining us! It's always a pleasure to have you in the Digital Salon.
	👻 9:16pm Austin Rich: Sounds like we have an appearance by Gerald Mohr!
	👻 9:17pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @9:15 WR! Thanks for coming by the Digital Salon.
	9:18pm Webhamster Henry: Violence on Radio!
	👻 9:18pm Austin Rich: Oooof! I would not like to get a beating from Gerald Mohr, who also plays Phillip Marlowe on another radio show, and often gives / receives beatings on that show.
	9:19pm Webhamster Henry: I hope that guy gets a visit from Eugor...
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:19 Eugor is starting to get a little fan club. We'll have to write some Eugor fan-fiction when this show is over.
	👻 9:24pm Austin Rich: "And all and all." That wasn't a skip in the record, either. After listening to a LOT of Dick Powell, I can confirm, he often repeats phrases like that. I think it's probably from reading off a script, and with limited rehearals before shows, as was often the case. But it sort of comes off like a part of Rouge's personality, since Powell does it often.
	9:25pm laurapanic: ↳ Austin Rich @9:17 this is my midday matinee!
	9:26pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:19 How would you do Eugor as a character in fanfic
	👻 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @9:25 I like that! I used to watch midday movies with George, when I was caregiving with him. He always loved westerns.
	👻 9:27pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @9:24 Like Jimmy Two Times in "Goodfellas".
	👻 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:26 Probably I would be doing the show for ya'll, then I would get hit on the head, and Eugor would visit the show for a few minutes. It could be a recurring gag.
	👻 9:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @9:27 I was just thinking I needed to watch Goodfellas again. It's been at least 10 years.
	9:29pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:27 That could work
	👻 9:30pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:29 Now we just have to find someone who can do a good Eugor impersonation. I suspect it is obvious: I have more ideas than time.
	9:30pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:30 And more projects
	👻 9:31pm Austin Rich: "Dandruff Remover." But otherwise, it does not clean your hair.
	👻 9:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ Song: ""Red Stands For Blood"" by "The Adventures of Roc... Compared to recent Rocky Jordan episodes, the sound is better than it has been. I did some improvements on this one, but not much. There's definately a disc / tape "hiss / drone" in the background that, whenever I would try to remove it, even subtle changes would sort of ruin the rest of the sound. So I didn't do much else.
	9:36pm laurapanic: I keep hearing "rent my tambourine" and I am intrigued by the market for such rentals.
	9:36pm laurapanic: ↳ laurapanic @9:36 and then Prince joins in, inside my mind noise with his jam "Tambourine".
	👻 9:37pm Austin Rich: ↳ laurapanic @9:36 Ha!
	9:37pm Imaginos: ↳ laurapanic @9:36 I was hearing Green Tambourine
	👻 9:38pm WR: red face red hair red some thing else.
	👻 9:39pm WR: red beard
	👻 9:41pm Austin Rich: I sort of envy people who can grow facial hair. Mine is super-patchy, and never fills in properly. My moustachs look like ones that 13 year olds grow. I'm better with a shaved face.
	👻 9:42pm WR: No mention of the valise to police.
	👻 9:42pm Austin Rich: Everybody have fun tonight! Everyone gets knocked out tonight!
	👻 9:42pm WR: Knocked out by a lady.
	9:43pm Webhamster Henry: Paul Frees channeling Boris Badenov here...
	👻 9:44pm Austin Rich: "Kafka & The Redhead" was a paper I wrote in college that did not get good marks, and was far too personal, for some reason that I'm embarrassed to try and remember...
	👻 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:43 We get a nice guest cast tonight, with Gerald Mohr and Paul Frees. Mid-Century Radio always has excellent treats for the ear.
	👻 9:45pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @9:42 What the cops don't know is far too numerous to keep track of.
	9:45pm Imaginos: Getting sleepy. Great show
	👻 9:46pm Austin Rich: As an ex-smoker - it's been about 10 years, knock on wood - I'm surprised at how often I still think about cigarettes. Like, all the damn time, unfortunately. Sigh.
	👻 9:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ Imaginos @9:45 You've had a long day. Sleep well, and we'll talk soon.
	9:47pm Imaginos: ↳ Austin Rich @9:46 Look forward to it
	👻 9:47pm WR: If Red Kafka is supposed to be dead, the negative maybe is Kafka showing he is still alive.
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @9:47 "Red Kafka" sounds like some sort of drug that you buy in a cyberpunk novel.
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: For anyone who tuned in late: we actually started a little late tonight. So we'll go a little long, anyway. (Hopefully no one minds.)
	👻 9:57pm Austin Rich: Microfilm is such a perfect MacGuffin for a noir / spy story, as the contents never have to be very specific, but the stakes for finding / recovering it can be very high.
	👻 9:57pm Austin Rich: ↳ WR @9:47 WR called it!
	👻 10:07pm WR: ↳ Austin Rich @9:57 There was another episode with similar plot. Almost but not exactly same. Not able to search now.
	👻 10:18pm Austin Rich: sonicbonds.wordpress.com
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: Hugo Gernsback was a publisher, and wrote a lot about radio and technology. His publications, because they were about technology, would occasionally publish science fiction, too. Some people consider Gernsback one of the grandfathers of Sci-Fi, even though he mostly wrote about current tech himself. Because he published Sci-Fi too, he's become an important figure.
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: The Sci-Fi award, "The Hugos," are named about Gernsback.
	👻 10:21pm Austin Rich: We might go about two minutes over. Sorry!
	👻 10:25pm David Shortell: The host of WFMU's "Blah Blah Woof Woof" (not on the current schedule) talks a lot about "The Prisoner". She's got a real Patrick McGoohan fixation.
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:25 I mean, he's a very compelling actor. He's good in other stuff, too! But I remember watching The Prisoner, and about 8 episodes in, realized that I was enjoying it so much, that I was sort of already sad I was gonna run out. So I haven't seen the last five episodes, and I plan to return to the show again when I'm older, so I have a surprise to look forward to. I forget stuff all the time, so I'm sure I'll enjoy watching it again, anyway. But it'll be nice to have that handful more or less unspoiled. (Though I have sort of gleaned what happens, unfortunately, but I'm sure they will still be enjoyable, even with "mild" spoilers.)
	👻 10:40pm David Shortell: ↳ Austin Rich @10:29 Dhani Harrison (son of George) formed a band called The New Number Two.
	👻 10:42pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: ""Saved by A Hair, Part 2"" by "The Blue Beetle" In Steve Ditko's hometown Johnstown PA, a mural in his honor features the second Blue Beetle. visitjohnstownpa.com...
	👻 10:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:42 I see Shade, The Changing Man, too!
	👻 10:43pm Austin Rich: ↳ David Shortell @10:40 Ooooo! I should check that out.
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: Certainly, there is something about stories where they travel to interact with Dinosaurs or similar to be some of my favorites. I should do a whole Dinosaur show someday.
	👻 10:50pm Austin Rich: The paleontologists were the ones that declared the films were genuine? They are film experts, too?
	👻 10:52pm Austin Rich: This is like "The Martian" but for Time Travel.
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: This feels a little like the "Arthur and Ford in prehistoric Earth" section of Hitchhiker's, too.
	👻 10:56pm Austin Rich: We're getting close to the end. Thanks again everyone!
	👻 11:01pm Austin Rich: Be Seeing You!
	👻 11:03pm WR: I guess we are to assume that since they worked out the "communication" problem the got the other two guys back. Thank you! Austin!
