Grab your kazoos and join us as we dive into today's episode, "The Voice of Tinker Jones" (directed by none other than Sean Penn's father, Leo Penn!).This Season 1 classic reveals the origins of the infamous bell (is it for Church? Or is it for School?!) that we all know and love. While you might think this is just a "fluffy family-friendly episode," it's actually a profound parable about children setting a better example than adults and showing empathy and acceptance toward those with disabilities. Sound deep? It is!We'll discuss Tinker Jones himself, played by the legendary Chuck McCann, and reflect on another beloved character that we will never see again—something that seems to be a recurring theme on Little House.Then, see what "Far Out Space Nuts" and "Here's Boomer" have to do with this episode. Confused yet?We'll chat about Sean Penn's appearance in this episode, with Alison sharing some fantastic stories about him. Plus, we'll touch on the development of Rev. Alden's character, Pa's strange compliance with Mrs. Oleson, Alpha Male dominance ruining tea time, and how the child actors of Little House mirrored the storyline. Pamela also shares her perspective as a kid watching this episode.Alison continues to kill our dreams by explaining how the bell was "made", and Dean crushes them further by reminding us that the bell wasn't even real and wouldn't have been heard all over town. WHY, Dean and Alison, WHY?!Finally, what in the world is baby Carrie saying?!Ring the Bells of Heaven, y'all, and enjoy this feel-good episode!

Today on another encore edition of The Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Eric Bonerz, son of actor and director Peter Bonerz. Host Josh Mills goes way back with Eric, who, while slightly older, attended the same Oakwood School that has become somewhat synonymous with this podcast. Like Josh, Oakwood was a Petri dish of children of celebrities and it's partially the impetus for this podcast. Our conversation with Eric was full of humor, pop culture references, lost LA lore and bizarre interactions with the film, TV, music and the world of animation if you can believe it. Eric recounts his father's career as a comedic actor coming up in theater in San Francisco in the 60s and takes us on a journey through television in the 70s, 80s and 90s. Best known to fans as Jerry the Dentist on The Bob Newhart Show, Peter Bonerz moved behind the camera and became an in-demand television director with more than 350 credits to his name. So while we discuss shows like Wings and Murphy Brown, we also hear about Eric's time on the set of the film Catch-22 as well as an evening spent in the Manson house with Nine Inch Nail's Trent Reznor. Whoa. Somehow on this episode we discuss AMC Jeeps, the Beastie Boys, the band Primus, actor Chuck McCann, actor Keir Dullea, the Jerry Lewis film, The Day The Clown Cried and much more. Eric is a touchstone to so many things, it just feels like he's in the DNA of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Listen and find out for yourself, right now.

THE BUNNY CHRONICLES - a History of Hugh Hefner & the Empire He Built - Playboy Magazine
It was 1990 when Richard Bann first visited Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion. Cinema and the importance of film preservation sparked a 30 year friendship. One that evolved into being closest of friends and an invitation to "Manly Night."Monday was always Manly Night, a gathering of Hef's closest friends who would nominate and vote on what film to screen after dinner: Dick Stewart, Ray Anthony, Mel Torme', Johnny Crawford, John Dante, Bob Ridgely, Chuck McCann, Peter Vieira, Ron Borst, Kevin Burns, Robert Culp, Fred Dryer, Jerry Vale, Richard Bann. In 1993 Dick Stewart and his wife Playmate, Anne Randall moved to Sun City. Dick went to Hef and suggested his seat at Hef's left hand should be given to Richard Bann, and Hef agreed. Brother Keith Hefner moved to Los Angeles from Aspen in 1997 coincident with Mel Torme's passing and his seat was given to Keith. "A seat at the table" was a big deal and not everyone who was close to Hef would receive that invitation by Hefner. Hefner was a creature of habit. Every week the calender would reflect nightly events. Events that were religiously held at the Playboy Mansion in Holmby Hills, for a span of 45 years.Tuesday Nights = GAME nightWednesday Nights = GIN nightThursday Nights = FAMILY night when Hefners boys, Marston and Cooper were young. Once the boys had grown up Thursday became a movie night.Friday Nights = CLASSIC FILM Night Saturday Nights = RERUN Movie ClassicsSunday Nights = screenings of yet to be released films. Straight from the studios, delivered UNDER lock AND key!! The films would arrive on reels and placed on Hefners equipment in in a hidden room behind the grand living room inside the library.Richard would write copious notes on each film before each movie night. Upon arriving at the Playboy Mansion, Richard would hand off his cliff notes to HEF. Hefner, the consimate editor would take Richards notes and create his presentation. A cherished moment we ALL loved. Hef in his silk pajamas and robe, in his wonderfully warm and intoxicating way would present a tender and brilliant; introspective and fascinating backstory on the film. It was "cinematic history" at it's pinnacle. We all shared the LOVE of movie nights held at the Playboy Mansion. The fondest memories we are so very lucky to share.

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast we are talking to Eric Bonerz whose father Peter Bonerz you all know from his acting and directing career. Likely, most of you know Peter Bonerz as the role of Jerry the Dentist on The Bob Newhart Show. But did you know that Peter directed some of the biggest (and some of the most bizarre) television shows of all-time? From Wingsto Murphy Brown to Home Improvement to Friends and News Radio, Peter Bonerz has more than 350 directing credits to his name. We also learn about some of his pilots & short lived shows like Apple Pie which did not make it. One, about humans playing dogs with Chuck McCann and Charles Martin Smith, might be the weirdest of them all. We talk to Eric about being on set like Catch-22 and Medium Cool and how his dad made it a point to be home for dinner and to be a parent who was present. Always. We also discuss Eric's own career, working at the Beastie Boys (wink, wink) store X-Large, his offbeat Bay Area band Eskimo and how he was the PD on the internet radio channel LuxuriaMusic.com which is yours truly favorite radio station. If The Day The Clown Cried, Yul Brenner, the band Primus, tagging along with Adam Arkin or seeing Keir Dullea eating sushi alone in the 80s mean anything at all to you, you must listen to this episode. The Rarified Heir Podcast's latest episode begins, now.

We talk about fellow puppeteer and writer Liz Hara's Hearthside episode. And other things we recommend including the book Lies My Teacher Told Me and Ta-Nehisi Coates' The Case For Reparations among others in anti-racism work. More from Leslie on Lolly's Instagram. As always, more information on PageCraft Writing's screenwriting workshops, feedback, and community is here.

Day 20: Mickey Mouse drags his pals into third dimension in the 2004 direct-to-DVD Disney special, “Mickey’s Twice Upon a Christmas.” On This Episode Mike Westfall (@fallwestmike), an oblivious North Pole workshop supervisor who can’t tell the difference between an elf and a duck. Drew Crowley (@pizzanautgo) of The Hourchive. John Dedeke (@johndedeke), also of The Hourchive, and Long Weekend. Topics and Tangents If you haven’t been to a Disney theme park in the last year or two, Mickey has a different face now. The hippo and crocodile from “Fantasia” have names, because of course they have names. Chuck McCann, the voice of Santa, was the Dreamfinder, so here’s the original Journey into Imagination. A quick lesson on how time zones work. Putting someone’s name on Santa’s list makes it as absolute as the Goblet of Fire. One of parenting’s greatest benefits: Embarrassing your kids when they bring home love interests. Making snow angels in popcorn on the roof is now on my bucket list. The Grumpy Dog who keeps showing up only to get beverages spilled on him is the Stan Lee of the Mickey Mouse universe, which I only mention because we recorded this the day after Stan died. Between the Goofys and the Plutos of this universe, there are talking reindeer who can own pets. Shout-out to Hidden Mickeys podcast. Tired: Putting out carrots for Santa’s reindeer.
