Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers It's a little after midnight on the morning of Monday January 9th. We're at P.J. Clarke's on the corner of 55th street and 3rd avenue, getting warm the best way we know how. The weather is nasty outside. It's about fifteen degrees with freezing rain and gale force winds. Clarke's is a bar from another time. It's wonderfully trapped in nostalgia—all burnished wood and chased mirrors. Orson Welles is opening King Lear at The City Center to good reviews. The years in Europe did him well, but he's happy to be back in New York. Welles is in the back with none other than Frank Sinatra. They've known each other since the 1930s, and since they both missed each other's fortieth birthdays last year, we're celebrating. Joining us is Jilly Rizzo and Bill Stern. The next round of drinks is on me. That's Daniel Levazzo. He bought the bar from the Clarke family a few years ago. Hey Dan, three Jacks straight up, a negroni for Orson, and I'll have Hendricks on the rocks. You want something? Hey Dan, let me borrow your phone, I've got to file my story. Hello Operator, give me CBS at 485 Madison Avenue please. (Beat) Yes I know what time it is. I'm a producer there. (Beat) Put me through. (Beat) Thank you. Some things never change. Hello Cindy, it's Scully. Is Ed Murrow still there? (Beat) Could you put me through to him? (Beat) Thank you. (Beat) Hey Ed, It's James Scully. I'm glad I caught you. Bill Paley's got you burning the midnight oil huh? (Beat) I did. Orson was good. I'm a P.J. Clarke's with him and Sinatra right now. Bill Stern's here too. You want to swing by? I'll get Dan Levazzo to break out the moonshine. (Beat) With those two? We'll be here a while. (Beat) Ha! Ok I'll see you soon. Ed Murrow's a good man. The gang will be happy to see him. Dan, Do me a favor, turn the TV up for a second. The Tonight Show with Steve Allen is just finishing on NBC-TV and there's a little news item on the tube before programming signs off. Everyone is talking about Grace Kelly's engagement to Prince Rainier III of Monaco. It was announced in Philadelphia on January 5th and their party is going to be at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel here in New York. Grace and Rainier went their separate ways on Saturday. She's going back to Hollywood to keep working on High Society. The only thing is, one of her co-stars is Sinatra, and he'll be in no mood to fly to the coast tomorrow. That's not the only talk of love and marriage going on around New York City. Look at that Sunday Daily News cover. Heiress Juliette Wehle stood up her husband-to-be on their wedding day. She supposedly slipped away at 2AM wearing just a negligee to elope with another man. Don't worry, it's not a roving producer from CBS. The twenty-year-old heiress later returned home, unmarried. Excuse me, I'm missing out on the fun. Oh, before I go, I should say that the story of a woman jilting one man for another is ironically a centerpiece in the upcoming plot within Yours Truly Johnny Dollar's “The Todd Matter.” The first episode will air later tonight at 8:15PM over CBS radio. And remember, it stars Bob Bailey.

What percent odds do you actually believe you will experience the apocalypse in your lifetime? That's a question from my most recent one-man show, Here to Make Friends, so I brought in my pals and collaborators Meaghan Strickland, Bill Stern, and Nick Leveski to help me answer it, in a roundabout way. "Roundabout" because before they answer the question directly, we perform Bracketology, an improvised argument game show we devised back in our days on the improv team KC Redheart.Follow along as we attempt to determine what makes for the apocalypse-iest apocalypse.Content warning: actual apocalypse, Here to Make Friends, the humans are changing, monsters, hoisted by our own petard, laziness, magic.Patreon supporters make This Is Your Afterlife possible and get awesome bonus episodes.

Our focus is on the great Jackie Robinson, the first African-American to play Major League Baseball. Robinson broke the color barrier when he started at first base for the Brooklyn Dodgers on April 15, 1947. We'll hear his story as told by legendary sports reporter Bill Stern. Then two episodes from Jackie Robinson's own radio show, and his radio biography from a 1948 episode of Destination Freedom. All this is followed by Jack Buck's interview with Robinson on KMOX radio in the early 1960s. More at http://krobcollection.com

In forty-four seasons from 1921 to 1964, The New York Yankees won the World Series twenty times. The dynasty began with Babe Ruth's sale from the Boston Red Sox after the 1919 season. Ruth learned his craft in an orphanage in Baltimore, making the Red Sox as a teenager in 1914. He quickly established himself as the best left-handed pitcher in the American League, but he could hit a ball further than anyone had seen. Over the next few seasons, the Red Sox slowly converted him into an outfielder. In 1919, he broke the Major League record, hitting twenty-nine home runs. The Red Sox drew 417,000 fans to Fenway Park, but they finished in sixth place. After that season, Red Sox owner Harry Frazee sold Ruth to the Yankees. The Red Sox had won five of the first fifteen world championships. They wouldn't win another for eighty-six years. The 1919 Yankees were competitive. They finished seven games out of first place and drew 619,000 fans to the Polo Grounds. But the stadium's main tenant was The New York Giants. The Giants drew 708,000 fans. Neither team won the pennant. The National League was represented by The Cincinnati Reds, while the American League champions were the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox lost the series five games to three under suspicious circumstances, and eight men — including Shoeless Joe Jackson — were barred for life for throwing games. Baseball needed a hero and Babe Ruth, now in the nation's biggest city, was that man. In 1920, his first year with the Yankees, the team drew 1.2 million fans. The Giants drew 929,000 fans. Giants manager John McGraw wasn't happy with Ruth's popularity. McGraw was a savage competitor who'd been involved in baseball since the late nineteenth century. Grantland Rice's show once dramatized a story about McGraw. Meanwhile in Brooklyn, The Robbins drew 613,000 people to Ebbets Field in Flatbush. New York was the capital of baseball. The Giants and Yankees would meet in three straight World Series, and the Yankees would open up Yankee Stadium in the Bronx in 1923. Throughout the course of his legendary career, Babe Ruth hit .342 with 714 Home Runs, a lifetime on-base percentage of .474, and a lifetime Slugging percentage of .690. Bill Stern interviewed The Babe for his March 22nd, 1946 Colgate Sports Newsreel. Any conversation about Ruth's Yankees always included teammate Lou Gehrig, who was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in 1939 and forced to retire. Lou Gehrig's farewell speech was broadcast on Independence Day, 1939. His disease is now also known by his name. Lou Gehrig passed away on June 2nd, 1941. He was thirty-seven.
Bill Stern's Colgate Newsreel first took to the air on December 5th, 1937 over NBC's Blue network. Born on July 1st, 1907, Stern began in vaudeville and by 1931, he was the assistant stage manager at the Roxy Theater and later Radio City in New York. In 1934 he got the role of broadcaster for NBC's Friday Night Fights. He became one of the most famous sportscasters in the country. Four years later he partnered with MGM for their News Of The Day reel. Stern's career flourished despite a 1935 car accident, which injured him severely enough that his left leg had to be amputated just above the knee. By March 17th, 1944, his colgate program was running over NBC on Fridays at 10:30PM eastern. Constance Bennett was the guest on this broadcast. After nearly sixteen years with NBC, Stern switched to ABC for three final seasons. While at ABC Stern was a regular panelist on the game show The Name's the Same.

We finally did it! We recorded the first episode in a new series, the Afterlife Movie Club. Claire Favret and Bill Stern join me to talk about the movie most referenced by far on This Is Your Afterlife, 1998 Robin Williams vehicle What Dreams May Come. Why is there so much purple in this movie? Does the story measure up to the set design? Exactly how fucked up is it for a movie this horny to end with two reincarnated lovers meeting as children?

Surrogate parenting has become commonplace in America and other countries. It has helped countless numbers of couples become parents. But it took until the late 1980s for an American Court to rule on the legal validity of surrogate motherhood. It came in the case of an infant girl dubbed Baby M. A woman named Mary Beth Whitehead gave birth to baby M, after her eggs were fertilized by a man named Bill Stern. He and his wife Elizabeth for unable to have a child of their own. The trouble arose when Whitehead, after giving birth, decided she wanted to keep the baby. A protracted court battle ensued, and ultimately the Sterns won custody of the baby.

Bill Stern has been one of the funniest comedians in Chicago at least since he and I were put on an improv team together in 2008. His sketch group Cigarette Sandwich is a powerhouse, constantly churning out new, original material. Bill's proximity to my coma gives him an intimate perspective for answering the "What's your coma?" question. We talk about some big losses in his life and whether he actually learns lessons from them, the confidence he got from auditioning for SNL, and we plan a prank for his funeral that combines Werner Herzog's "Grizzly Man" and silent discos.

Ever since he realized how small cars made the world, Bill Stern has been obsessed with these sweet methods of transpo. Whether it was cautiously attending street races back in Texas or working on a project car that met a tragic end, Bill explores the world of automobiles with an interest that isn't always met by his peers. By the end we're comparing cars to everything from dating to Beanie Babies and exploring how the Fast and the Furious franchise took the car world by storm (kind of). Thanks to Basecamp for sponsoring and the Chicago Podcast Cooperative for their continued efforts for bringing together a bunch of small artists and businesses.
"I Was a Communist for the FBI" - The UnAmerican Activity from May 6, 1953. "The Party" is planning an attack against the House Un-American Activities Committee. When the Polit bureau of the American Communist party ordered his district leader to report to them in New York, Matt Cvetic was instructed to take over his duties. That was a week ago, and he'd heard nothing more from either the Polit bureau or his district leader. Cvetic was concerned because the closer you get to the top of the Red organization, the closer you're watched--and he knew there was always a chance that he'd make a slip that could be fatal. Also, Bill Stern in "The Colgate Sports Newsreel" from November 23, 1949 with Frank Sinatra.
How hard could it be to make a decent Star Wars porn parody? Apparently very hard. Listen to a lackluster retelling of the original Star Wars film that somehow includes just four sex scenes, each less inspired than the last. They didn't even come up with "sexy" versions of the original character names! Dong Vader? Hand Solo? Princess Lay-ya? Luke Skyhumper? Nothin'. It's disturbingly lazy, even for porn. In Porn Minus Porn, the Under the Gun Theater ensemble receives their scripts only after stepping on stage. They must read this real adult film script without preparation.

Ronald Reagan appearance on Colgate Sports Reel, Probably the greatest sportscaster that ever lived, Bill Stern knew how to captivate his audience. With a strong background in grand theater and vaudeville, Stern used techniques rarely heard on a radio sportscast.Bill Sterns at the Microphone Stern eulogized the obscure, the near-great, and the great. Stern would tell fantastic tales about the oddest characters that have ever played professional sports. His stories ranged from horses winning races with dead jockeys on their backs, to armless and/or legless baseball players, to a blind athlete winning a marathon but lose his only love. Stern would punctuate his extraordinary legends with long, overstated pauses, soap-opera-like vocal emotion, relentless repetition, and major exaggerated words in every sentence.
