New Year; Bogie; Widmark; Orson as Anatole & Ronald Colman in Les Miserables

by gregbell 12/23/2009 12:27:00 PM

Here are the links for the schedule for December 27th, 2009 to January 2nd, 2010. 

Sirius 118 XM 164 PDF Version and the Excel Version or the direct link to the page HERE 

We ring in the New Year with many of our annual episodes including themed programs from Sherlock Holmes, Casey-Crime Photographer, The Great Gildersleeve, Jack Benny, Burns & Allen, Martin & Lewis, Father Knows Best, etc.

We also have belated birthday celebrations for big screen legends, Humphrey Bogart and Richard Widmark. In the case of Widmark we'll play the hour long Lux Radio Theatre version of his debut film, "Kiss of Death". 

Speaking of Lux - we also have that longrunning CBS series version of "Victor Hugo's Les Miserables" with Ronald Colman and Debra Paget. Also Orson Welles will be heard in The Mercury Theater On The Air adaptation of "Affairs of Anatole."

2010 is gonna be a great year, so glad you are along with me for the ride!!

Greg.

Oh my gosh, you met THE Peggy Webber? Holy cow! I watch her on Dragnet, listen to her on Dragnet and a ton of other stuff and generally love her! Wow! Amazing!

Long ago and far away, my older brother and I both learned to spell Czechoslovakia just because one of Norman Corwin's World War II presentations stated that no one could. Thank you Mr. Corwin for many programs of courage and hope during some dark times. Keep up the great work Greg,your inclusion of original broadcast dates and added color on both the shows and their stars make my evenings. Many thanks to you also.

Hi, Gang! Happy 2010 to all of you out there in Radioland. I also hope we get the Masked Man back, as well as Sgt. Preston of the Yukon. But in the meantime, let's all wish Greg Bell, Mr. Radio Himself, a great 2010 and thank him for his magnificent work in 2009. God bless you, Greg, and THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO AND HAVE DONE FOR US!

Hi Bell Bloggers,

Happy New Year!! You are all very nice people, and I wish you the best in 2010. It has to be a good year, since 2009 was a financial disaster for most people.

The battery in my inno lasted 2 years but it died on Sunday. I have missed my shows for this week. Luckily, Richard Diamond was not on the schedule. I would hate to miss his shows.

Happy New Year everyone!!! Remember to throw in geographical locations...24 of you already have done so...

Greg: Do you know if a studio contract covered both radio and big screen back in the day? It seems the screen actors are very willing to do live radio....

I heard "Kiss of Death" very early this morning. Richard Widmark was so spooky and psychotic I nearly jumped out of my skin and my bed! Greg, you always put the spookiest stuff on in the middle of the night --- it's so neat! From all accounts, Mr. Widmark was, in fact, a kind and very intelligent man but NO one (except maybe Jimmy Cagney) played evil men and crazies as well as he!
I haven't been able to print the skeds; Dad is trying to fix the connection between the 2 computers and the printer. As a result, I'm missing shows and my sked notebook is behind. Dad will fix it - in this I have faith. But I cannot attest to the time it will take. Dad is as stubborn as a summer day is long so I'll have to be patient. It's OK - I admire his tenacity.
Anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU, ESPECIALLY TO GREG WHO HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR US. GOD BLESS!
