Your ears won't believe the fascinating origins of this flapper icon, as we unveil her journey from Max Fleischer's drawing board to the hearts of millions. With the help of our co-host phoenix, we'll spill the secrets behind Betty's creation, inspired by the cheeky Helen Kane and how the "boop-boop-a-doop" songstress's lawsuit didn't hinder Betty's rise but rather sealed her stardom. Revel in the nostalgia as we recount Betty's groundbreaking role in animation, her dance with jazz legends like Cab Calloway, and the flapper spirit that paved the way for women's self-expression.Fasten your garter belts for a rollercoaster ride through Betty Boop's transformation from risqué flapper to domestic darling, all thanks to the restrictive Hays Code. Witness how societal shifts and the Great Depression reshaped Betty's persona and the world's perception of femininity. Despite being nudged out of the spotlight, Betty's sass and charm refuse to fade, with her legacy living on in modern adaptations. So raise a glass to the boop-oop-a-doop girl as we celebrate the audacious and ever-charming Betty Boop, whose story is as rich and lively as the era she symbolizes.Links: Support our show on paypal or from our host: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=SC5G5XFCX8MYW https://www.buzzsprout.com/547567/supportVisit us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SmarticusTellsHistoryStart your podcast on Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=486316Support the show
Esther Jones, conhecida pelo nome artístico Baby Esther, foi a cantora que inspirou a criação da personagem de desenho Betty Boop. Esther Jones nasceu por volta de 1918, em Chicago, em um dos bairros negros da cidade. Começou a trabalhar com entretenimento ainda durante a infância, agenciada pelos seus pais, e aos seis anos já era conhecida por seu carisma. Treinada em canta, dança e acrobacias, a menina fez sucesso em inúmeras casas de shows nos Estados Unidos, Europa e América do Sul durante as décadas de 20 e 30, e se tornou a artista infantil mais bem paga do mundo. Seus fãs incluíam membros de famílias reais europeias, e a menina ainda tinha um público fiel no clássico Moulin Rouge de Paris! Em 1930, a cantora Helen Kane processou o Fleischer Studios por terem criado a personagem Betty Boop com base na sua aparência e maneirismos em cena, especialmente sua voz infantilizada e sua assinatura « boop-oop-a-doop » e outras frases musicais sem sentido. Durante o processo, no entanto, foi provado que o próprio show de Helen Kane não passava de uma imitação do trabalho de Baby Esther, que Kane havia assistido com seu agente. Se alguém tinha popularizado os sons “boop-oop-a-doop », “wha-da-da”, entre outros, era a própria Baby Esther! O processo de Helen Kane contra os criadores de Betty Boop foi encerrado , e atualmente é sabido que a verdadeira inspiração a personagem Betty Boop foi uma menininha negra de Chicago, Esther Jones! Mesmo assim, sua história é pouco reconhecida e ela morreu no esquecimento. #estherjones #mulherdefibra #babyesther #bettyboop #helenkane #chicago #moulinrouge

Findings from our 2022 Global Survey show that MSLs are engaging externally as early as Phase 1 of the clinical development programme. This finding led to a conversation between Helen Kane, Paul Reynolds, Sanda Rocak & Esther Nzenza, in which they started to explore what MSLs and the wider team needed to know and do to be effective in early life-cycle engagement. It is evident that there is significant scope to collaborate earlier across medical affairs, marketing, market access and clinical development to fully unleash the power of all four. From that single conversation grew the idea for a webinar where they would meet to discuss a number of relevant questions around the opportunities and challenges which can exist for any organisation.

She regularly performed at the legendary Cotton Club in Harlem. After watching Esther’s cabaret act in 1928, white jazz singer Helen Kane adopted Jones’ singing and scatting style. Kane also changed the interpolated words “boo-boo-boo” and “doo-doo-doo” to “boop-oop-a-doop” while recording her hit single “I Wanna Be Loved By You.” Kane never publicly admitted to appropriating Esther’s singing style, but the truth was revealed when Kane filed a lawsuit against Max Fleischer, the animator who created Betty Boop in 1930. Ironically, Kane claimed that Betty Boop was imitating and profiting off of her image. --Source: Black Enterprise Talk a Topic (17:08 - 57:08): Representation Matters in the Beauty Industry We chat about why representation matters in the area of beauty.

The Wanderers (G.P. Putnam's Sons) Brilliantly imagined and wholly original, The Wanderers follows three astronauts as they audition for the first-ever mission to Mars, an experience that will push the boundary between real and unreal, test their relationships, and leave each of them—and their families—changed forever. Inspired by real-life experiments designed to test the psychological and physiological demands of a human mission to Mars, Meg Howrey’s intrinsically-researched, stunning new novel is described best by J. Ryan Stradal, New York Times-bestselling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest, “Ambitious and deeply empathetic, Howrey’s exquisite novel demonstrates that the final frontier may not be space after all.” Readers of Station Eleven, Karen Joy Fowler, and Ruth Ozeki will love this imaginative, witty work of literary fiction and its moving tribute to human relationships that define and support incredible scientific achievement. In four years, Prime Space will put the first humans on Mars in a wildly ambitious and history-making mission called MarsNOW. Helen Kane, Yoshihiro Tanaka, and Sergei Kuznetsov must prove they’re the crew for the job by spending seventeen months in the most realistic simulation of a space mission ever created. Helen, recently retired from NASA after a decades-long career and three extended missions to space, has not trained for irrelevance. It’s nobody’s fault that the best of her exists only in space, but her daughter can’t help placing blame. This mission is Helen’s last chance to return to the only place she’s ever felt at home. For Yoshi, the mission is an opportunity to prove himself to the high-powered wife he has loved absolutely, if not quite correctly. Sergei is willing to spend seventeen months in a tin can if it means traveling to Mars, ultimately proving his own immense strength and stamina as an example of solidity for his sons. As the days turn into months aboard the simulated spacecraft, the line between what is real and unreal fractures irreparably, and the astronauts learn that the complications of inner space are no less fraught than those of outer space. As their family members navigate planet Earth thousands of miles away, facing their own greatest fears and achieving incredible personal triumphs, the astronauts grapple with intense loneliness and increasingly prevalent psychological stress. They start to ask themselves the eternal questions that we have all faced: What is life? Who are we? What is the purpose of all this cosmic mayhem? Probing just how well we can ever know ourselves, or hope to know somebody else, The Wanderers gets at the heart of what it means to be human—even when we’re a million miles from home. Sweeping in both its delicious, witty writing and phenomenal, factual exploration of outer space, Howrey’s meticulously researched yet tender novel puts a uniquely human face on the science behind space exploration, bringing sparks of life to each astronaut and reminding us that in an age of space exploration, the thing we search most desperately for is to find ourselves. Praise for The Wanderers "Three astronauts and those who know them best explore the limits of truth and love in Howrey's genre-bending novel...The voices are distinct, each member reviewing and acting on his or her own emotional telemetry with equal parts brilliance and blunder, and the stakes are high, with any heartbeat capable of tipping the scales against the crew's survival...With these believably fragile and idealistic characters at the helm, Howrey's insightful novel will take readers toa place where they too can 'lift their heads and wonder.'"–Publishers Weekly, Starred Review "Engrossing…Although the contours of a space drama may seem familiar to a 21st-century readership, Howrey, through the poetry of her writing and the richness of her characters, makes it all seem new. A lyrical and subtle space opera"-–Kirkus, Starred Review “The Wanderers…confronts ageless questions of why humans explore, what they are looking for, and what happens when they find it. Evoking the authenticity of Neal Stephenson’s Seveneves (2015) with the literary sensitivity of Ann Patchett, Howrey has made the mission-to- Mars motif an exquisite exploration of human space, inner and outer.”-–Booklist “The Wanderers is phenomenal. A transcendent, cross-cultural and cross-planetary journey into the mysteries of space and self, the novel explores the dangers and necessities of venturing away from the familiar and finding home in the unknown. Howrey's expansive vision left me awestruck.” —Ruth Ozeki, New York Times bestselling and Man Booker shortlisted author of A Tale for the Time Being “An expansive tale of the costs of human ambition, The Wanderers is unquestionably the work of a brilliant writer at the height of her powers. Meticulously researched and magnificently rendered, Howrey’s dazzling novel on humankind’s most ambitious project is, in itself, a work of wondrous skill and ambition, a book about space that’s truly about people, but also about the lonely wonder of true trailblazers, the disparate cast behind a great life, and the compromises that build success. Fiercely inventive and deeply empathetic, Howrey’s exquisite novel demonstrates that the final frontier may not be space after all.”—J. Ryan Stradal, New York Times bestselling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest “The Wanderers is a stealthily brilliant novel. A distinct, shimmering vision of who we are and where we think we want to go. Meg Howrey’s three astronauts and their families seem to embody the whole human race at the signal moment of a growth spurt. They exist, as we do now, at the edge of science fiction, their story propelled by a seriousness and intelligence wrapped in a comic and tender humanity. Meg Howrey delivers this vision in a prose that feels new, sui generis, its own necessary vehicle, with a kind of sleek precision that is at once simple, gorgeous, and profoundly moving.”—Peter Nichols, national bestselling author of The Rocks and A Voyage for Madmen “Elegant, thoughtful, gorgeously written. A meditation on solitude, connection, aspiration, imagination and reality, which builds effortlessly to moments of immense power and honesty. There are passages near the end of this book that I will never forget.”—Charles Yu, author of How to Live Safely in a Science Fiction Universe and Sorry Please Thank You “The Wanderers is a wonderful exploration of space, trust, and what it means to be a conscious creature, finely-tuned and funny from the first page to the last. I loved getting lost in Meg Howrey's off-kilter world of astronauts and their simulated fantasies. She's a writer with an amazing eye for freedom and confinement and the thin line that sometimes lies between the two.”—Jonathan Lee, author of High Dive Meg Howrey is a former dancer who performed with The Joffrey, Eglevsky Ballet, and City Ballet of Los Angeles.

Ugh! I had to replace my "Black Legacy" playlist, originally meant for today's webcast (Sept. 3rd, 2011 2pm - 4pm @ www.killradio.org). Why? After the implosion of last week's CSC ("Beats, Breakbeats, Scratches and Bass"), I found the "Black Legacy" show to be as implosion-possible as the "BBSB" show was. Frakkin' heavy handed DJing if ya' ask me...and now I'm scared that I've lost my playlist-making powers. So fine, let's jump to my "Children's Show" with music that was a part of my youth as well as music made for children from the 40's - 70's. No way to misstep with kiddie music, right?!! Right?!! Answer ME!!! Many tracks played throughout today's show I was happy to find thanks to the magic of the Internet. Perfect examples are all the tracks by the Record Guild of America, Inc., that during the 1940's produced a number of children's music records on 45rpm. I was lucky enough to find them available in .mp3 format along with the original artwork. (Check out the link which proves I'm tellin' the truth). One of the tracks that I was practically raised on was "Frankenstein" by the Edgar Winter Group, as it was played (by my brother and I mostly) on my parents' jukebox growing up. Actually it was my Mom's jukebox, an anniversary present my Dad gave to her back in the early 70's. It looks just like the one linked and I just saw a similar one for sale at a vintage clothing store in Echo Park, although someone painted red paint all over what was originally silver metal and stained wood. Also Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's Sheherezade was another track that I have my Mom to thank for. I can remember "The Young Prince and the Young Princess" being played while my family and I did housework and yardwork on the weekends. For that reason, this show is very much dedicated, with much love and affection, to my Mom and all the great music that she exposed me to growing up. 1.
