    We've got more highlights of Holiday Hell from the Lost Battalion Hall than we really needed! Missy Hyatt lays the smack down, of sorts; 2 cold and Mikey underestimate each other; Taz has a whole new attitude; The Gangstas return to usher The Public Enemy outta here; Bruiser Mastino (fka Mantaur) is one and done; all this plus a shallow dive into the mumming tradition.

    The Public Enemy take on the debuting Gangstas! Cactus Jack takes on The Sandman - yet again! Shane Douglas looks like he's got something to say! Does he? Bill Alfonso certainly has his share of heat to garner, too. Taz takes on 2 Cold and The Pitbulls are trying to make a change - for once in their lives. All this and Val Puccio, too.

    It's all part of what can only be described as "an ECW show from mid-1995". And if that's not enough, we're also going to post the video version with the previous night's event MOUNTAINTOP MADNESS playing in the background. It's a smorgasbord for the senses.

    BONUS - Maid in Hollywood (Beulah & Philco Radio Time)

    BONUS - Maid in Hollywood (Beulah & Philco Radio Time)

    In honor of Black History Month, we're saluting African American performers in old time radio comedies. Seven years after she became the first Black performer to win an Oscar, Hattie McDaniel broke another barrier as the first Black woman to headline a national radio series. McDaniel starred as Beulah in the comedy series about the titular maid and housekeeper. We'll hear her in a pair of Beulah episodes (originally aired on CBS on June 27 and June 28, 1950). Plus, she reprises the role in an episode of Philco Radio Time with Bing Crosby (originally aired on ABC on January 19, 1949).

    Memories

    Memories

    Welcome to Episode 18.

    In this week’s episode we take a walk down memory lane to pay respects to legends like Sprangalang, Grovey & Alvon. We also reminisce about having an oil industry after seeing all fuel subsidies removed from the budget.

    How could we forget the church folks and their carnival camps, and will DSS also end up being a memory after being cancelled like carnival?

    Tune in, Listen & Enjoy

    Pioneering TV Women of Color: TV Women Blacklisted

    Pioneering TV Women of Color: TV Women Blacklisted

    This 4 episode series examines anti-communism/McCarthy-ism blacklisting 's impact on the careers of women who likely would have changed the look, depth and sound of TV.

    Cynthia and author/scholar, Dr. Charlene Regester of Univ. of North Carolina have a frank conversation about how racism, stereotyped roles and Jim Crow laws delayed TV's depiction of African American life by more than a decade. This adds to the story of a previous podcast episode about TV's Single Women and how even in the 1980s, a TV series cast a black woman as a household domestic.

    The Beulah Show - The Building Permit (03-23-53) and Cutting Onions (10-09-53)

    The Beulah Show - The Building Permit (03-23-53) and Cutting Onions (10-09-53)
    The Beulah Show is an American situation-comedy series that ran in radio on CBS from 1945 to 1954, and in television on ABC from 1950 to 1953. It is notable for being the first sitcom to star an African American. Originally portrayed by Caucasian actor Marlin Hurt, Beulah Brown first appeared in 1939 when Hurt introduced and played the character on the Hometown Incorporated radio series and in 1940 on NBC radio's Show Boat series. In 1943, Beulah moved over to That's Life and then became a supporting character on the popular Fibber McGee and Molly radio series in late 1944. In 1945, Beulah was spun off into her own radio show, The Marlin Hurt and Beulah Show, with Hurt still in the role. Beulah was employed as a housekeeper and cook for the Henderson family: father Harry, mother Alice and son Donnie. After Hurt died of a heart attack in 1946, he was replaced by another white actor, Bob Corley, and the series was retitled The Beulah Show. When black actress Hattie McDaniel took over the role on November 24, 1947, she earned $1000 a week for the first season, doubled the ratings of the original series and pleased the NAACP which was elated to see a historic first: a black woman as the star of a network radio program. McDaniel continued in the role until she became ill in 1952 and was replaced by Lillian Randolph, who was in turn replaced for the 1953-54 radio season by her sister, Amanda Randolph.
