And now back to your regularly scheduled program. Hosts Brad Garoon and Jake Ziegler return to their examination of the last century in film with a look at 1938. Brad recommended a movie that neither he nor Jake had seen before in My Man Godfrey. They talk about the power of the Thin Man, William Powell, and the tour-de-force performances by the female cast, including Carole Lombard, Gail Patrick, and the indominable Alice Brady. They talk about the peculiar place in Oscar history this Gregory La Cava film occupies, and The theme of the haves vs. the have-nots continues in Jake's pick for the week, Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times. They marvel at how a 90-year-old movie can look like it came out today, at the power of Chaplin's comedic persona, and at the startling beauty of Paulette Goddard (and at her character's baffling backstory). Other movies mentioned in this episode: Sabotage (1936), the Great Ziegfeld (1936) Silver Linings Playbook (2012), Godzilla Minus One (2023).

Humphrey Bogart was born to Belmont Bogart and Maud Humphrey on Christmas Day, 1899 in New York City. The eldest child, his father came from a long line of Dutch New Yorkers, while his mother could trace her heritage back to the Mayflower. Belmont was a surgeon, while Maud was a commercial illustrator and suffragette. Young Humphrey was sometimes the subject of her artwork—a detail that got him teased in school. Maud earned over fifty-thousand dollars per year at the peak of her career. They lived in an Upper West Side apartment, and had land on the Canandaigua Lake in upstate New York. Bogart and his two younger sisters watched as their parents — both career-driven — frequently fought and rarely showed affection to them. His mother insisted they call her Maud. Bogart remembered her as straightforward and unsentimental. Bogie inherited his father's sarcastic and self-deprecating sense of humor, a fondness for the water, and an attraction to strong-willed women. He attended the prestigious Trinity School and later Phillips Academy. He dropped out of Phillips after one semester in 1918, deeply disappointing his parents. Bogart enlisted in the Navy in the Spring of 1918, serving as a Boatswain's mate. He later recalled, "At eighteen, war was great stuff. Paris! Sexy French girls! Hot damn!" He left the service on June 18th, 1919 with a pristine record. Bogart returned home to find his father's health and wealth doing poorly. Bogart's liberal ways also put him at odds with his family, so he joined the Coast Guard Reserve and worked as a shipper and bond salesman. Unhappy with his choices, he got a job with William A. Brady's World Films. He was stage manager for daughter Alice Brady's production of A Ruined Lady. He made his stage debut a few months later as a butler in Alice's 1921 production of Drifting. He had one line, and remembered delivering it nervously, but it began a working relationship that saw Bogart appear in several of her productions. Bogart liked the hours actors kept and the attention they received. He was a man who loved the nightlife, enjoying trips to speakeasies. He later joked that he "was born to be indolent and this was the softest of rackets." The man never took an acting lesson, preferring to learn on the job. He appeared in at least eighteen Broadway productions between 1922 and 1935, playing juveniles or romantic supporting roles, more in comedy than anything else. While playing in Drifting at the Playhouse Theatre in 1922, he met actress Helen Menken. They married in May, 1926. They divorced eighteen months later, but remained friends. In April 1928, he married actress Mary Philips. Both women cited that Bogart cared more about his career than marriage. Broadway productions dropped off after the Wall Street Crash of 1929. Many actors were heading for Hollywood. Bogart debuted on film with Helen Hayes in The Dancing Town. He signed a contract with The Fox Film Corporation for seven-hundred-fifty dollars per-week. There he met Spencer Tracey. They became close friends. Tracy made his feature film debut in his only movie with Bogart, John Ford's early sound film Up The River, from 1930. They played inmates. Bogart next appeared opposite Bette Davis and Sidney Fox in Bad Sister. Shuffling back and forth between Hollywood and New York and out of work for long periods, his father died in 1934. That year, Bogart starred in the Broadway play Invitation to a Murder. During rehearsal producer Arthur Hopkins heard the play from offstage and sent for Bogart, offering him the role of a lifetime. He cast Bogart as escaped murderer Duke Mantee in Robert Sherwood's The Petrified Forest.

Screwball comedy and Depression-era inequity meet in “My Man Godfrey” (1935). William Powell is experiencing the Depression first-hand, from under a bridge, when a society swell arrives and offers him a few dollars to help her win a scavenger hunt. Before you know it, Powell is buttling in the house of a dysfunctional wealthy family. Hilarity, and the politics of class follow. Carole Lombard, William Powell, Alice Brady and Gail Patrick are all marvelous, as is the rest of the supporting cast. “My Man Godfrey” was nominated for six Oscars, including the first two supporting actor statues ever awarded, but won none. Host Shelly Brisbin with Erika Ensign, Nathan Alderman and Jean MacDonald.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains a lot of references to sexual assault that takes place in the movie. Another in the “musical drama disaster film” genre of San Francisco, this week’s movie is a fictional telling of the family of Mrs. O’Leary, whose cow, for at least a century, was held responsible for starting the Chicago Fire. Starring Tyrone Power, Alice Brady, and Alice Faye, In Old Chicago is a movie so chock full of the worst Classic Film offenses that David made up a bingo card for it. It’s also the last film of 1937, so find out if the Academy’s winner holds up!

Our hosts' first foray into the world of Fred and Ginger, The Gay Divorcee is a bit of a mixed bag, but at least it's an improvement over the last two weeks! The good: Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers sing and dance a bunch, Alice Brady plays a hilarious one liner machine named Aunt Hortense, and the sets are so beautiful the movie single handedly increased the sales of Venetian blinds (no, really). The bad: some outdated and frankly dangerous tropes, a frankly nonsensical plot, and a desperate attempt by the studios to, as David puts it, "Make fetch happen." Find out what he means on this week's episode!

The Story of Dr Kildare, originally broadcast February 22, 1950, 68 years ago. Alice Brady. A woman walks into Blair General Hospital, can't remember her name and faints in the lobby. She's wearing a $1000 coat and has "psychogenic amnesia."

It's been over 18 months since the last episode of this podcast was released, so thank you so much for your patience while other things were allowed to take precedence. In this episode, Tom is joined once more by Steven from A History of Misunderstanding Podcast. Steven is here to discuss the curse of Superman, a theory that various actors who have played the titular superhero and various co-stars have died after being involved with the character. We come to the conclusion that far more people survived and some have continued to be successful than have died, and even the most tragic deaths seem to be from outside influence like ill-health or drugs. Let us know your thoughts on this and any similar film franchises that are synonymous with curses. In the quick S.H.I.T.s section, Tom debunks the playground myth that if you swallow chewing gum it stays in your stomach for seven years. It just simply isn't true. Steven brings the story of a stolen Oscar statue by an unknown man, collecting it on behalf of actress, Alice Brady at the 1937 ceremony, and the fact that it has never surfaced since. Perhaps it's still out there in an L.A. loft? Tom closes out the show with a possible debunking of the phenomenon of the blood of St Januarius. Three times a year priests in Naples hold a ceremony where the blood has been known to liquify, signifying that the patron saint of the city is looking after the people. Scientists have not be allowed to study the blood to confirm it really is blood, rather than a medieval hoax. However, they have recreated a thixotropic substance from ingredients that would have been available around the first recorded instance of this miracle occurring. The substance is said to look and act just like the blood of St Januarius. Proof or coincidence? You decide. Thank you, again, for downloading this podcast. We hope to bring you episode more regularly in future. If you want to take part in an episode, or have a myth or story to debunk or is unexplainable send an email to abhpod@gmail.com with the title Shipped High In Transit, comment on our Facebook page or on Twitter @ShippedHigh. Thank you so much for listening.
