POPULARITY
Come celebrate with us as we bring you our 100th episode of Fairy Tale Fix! We mark this momentous occasion with the tale that's been told 100 million times and counting–the transformation queen, the midnight majesty, the bippity-boppiest of them all, Cinderella. Abbie reads the Brother's Grimm version for a fun twist on the tale, and Kelsey gives our former friend James Finn Garner a chance at redemption with his politically correct version.
Humorist and novelist James Finn Garner returns to discuss his New York Times bestselling collection Politically Correct Holiday Stories and how the holidays represent a deeply personal literary tradition. Jim shares how challenging it was to walk that satirical line between poking fun at holiday cant while still embracing genuine sentiment; how a holiday story was his first published work; how bedtime stories were easier to satirize because everything's so black and white; how play can be the best form of celebration; how he wants to shift holiday paradigms and sit down to a feast of mutual delusions; and the thing that made a hard-boiled humorist go all soft and squishy inside. (Length 19:22) The post PC Holiday Stories appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

On this date in 1932, the BBC Empire Service radio system went on the air for the first time. Here are some things you may not have known about what is now called BBC World Service. The Empire Service began as a shortwave service aimed at English speakers in the far-flung reaches of the British Empire. It would take weeks for letters to reach some points by mail, while radio could reach them instantly. King George V said the service was intended for “men and women, so cut off by the snow, the desert or the sea, that only voices out of the air can reach them.” While those behind the idea had high hopes for the service in the long term, their short-term hopes were more guarded. The director general of the BBC, John Reith (Wreath), opened the service by saying: “Don’t expect too much in the early days; for some time we shall transmit comparatively simple programs, to give the best chance of intelligible reception and provide evidence as to the type of material most suitable for the service in each zone. The programs will neither be very interesting or good.” The first foreign-language service, in Arabic, was launched in January 1938, followed in March by German programming. By 1942, the service was broadcasting in all major European languages, and had been renamed BBC Overseas Service. During World War II, the Overseas Service broadcast propaganda and its French service sent coded message to the French Resistance. In 1965, the service was again renamed, this time as BBC World Service. At various times, the BBC World Service has operated in 70 different languages and dialects around the world. Through the years, services have been started and discontinued. In the 1990s and early 2000s, many of the European-language services were discontinued as the majority of listeners in those countries listened in English. Budget cuts and changing technologies have also led the BBC to reduce the number of countries it broadcasts to on shortwave radio. Countries that retain shortwave service today are mostly in Africa, Asia and South America. Europe, North America and Australia are served by local FM stations, and streaming on the internet. Today, the service broadcasts in 27 languages, the most recently added service is in the Krygyz language of Kyrgyzstan. The service plans to begin broadcasting to Nigeria in Igbo, Nigerian Pidgin, and Yoruba soon. Our question: Which European language service was the first to be discontinued by the BBC World Service? Today is unofficially National Hard Candy Day, and National Oatmeal Muffin Day. It’s the birthday of former Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, who was born in 1905; singer Edith Piaf, who was born in 1915; and musician Maurice White, who was born in 1941. Because our topic happened before 1960, we’ll spin the wheel to pick a year at random. This week in 1994, the top song in the U.S. was “Here Comes the Hotstepper” by Ini Kamoze. (Eye-knee) The No. 1 movie was “Dumb and Dumber,” while “Politically Correct Bedtime Stories” by James Finn Garner topped the New York Times Bestsellers list. Weekly question The BBC is the world’s oldest national broadcaster. What was the first broadcast network in the United States?
