SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROW is the theme and it's all about dystopian futures and perhaps familiar places of history, altered, from before their time. Today's discussion is a time capsule of a corner of a music and subculture scene amongst the rubble of postwar England. This gaggle of strange kids, some more lethal than others, thrive whereas the countries greatest titles and traditions fall. Top of the Pops? Eurovision? Thankfully these still exist in this anarchic world. Buckingham Palace? Not so much. It's probably owned by a Texan now. All this observed from the past by Queen Elizabeth I with the assistance of the angel Ariel. We're talking about Derek Jarman's early queer-art-punk film “JUBILEE” from 1978 starring Jenny Runacre, Jordan, Toyah Wilcox, Adam Ant, Little Nell, Orlando and many more. A worthy entry for those into popular music history and their subcultures. A unique dystopian film representing an extremely chaotic, yet familiar England on the eve of the Thatcher era. A prophetic sickness from the mind of Derek Jarman. The Queen seemed to take it all in stride, really. Jarman really should have made the little person play Catherine.

The Old Curiosity Shop by Charles Dickens audiobook. The Old Curiosity Shop tells the story of Little Nell, a beautiful and virtuous young girl who lives with her grandfather in his shop of curiosities. Her grandfather loves her dearly, and Nell does not complain, but she lives a lonely existence without friends of her own age. Her only friend is Kit, an honest young lad who works at the shop, and whom she is teaching to write. Unbeknownst to Nell, her grandfather is obsessed with their precarious financial position and is attempting to make Nell a good inheritance by winning at cards. He keeps these nocturnal activities a secret, but borrows heavily from the evil Quilp, a dwarf, in order to raise new capital. In the end, he gambles away what little money they own, and Quilp seizes the opportunity to take possession of the shop and make Nell's and her grandfather's lives a misery. Indeed, her grandfather suffers a breakdown, which leaves him bereft of his wits. Courageously, Nell decides to escape Quilp, and she and her grandfather run away to the country to live as beggars, travelling into the Midlands of England. There, then, follow the multifarious adventures of Nell and her grandfather, Quilp and his sly minions and accomplices, who would be Nell's vehement pursuers throughout the entire story, the noble schoolmaster, and many, many other personages as bright and memorable as Dickens' heroes always are. But... let us hear the story itself, shan't we?

Learn to do everything lightly.Yes, feel lightly even though you're feeling deeply.Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.I was so preposterously serious in those days, such a humorless little prig.Lightly, lightly – it's the best advice ever given me.When it comes to dying even. Nothing ponderous, or portentous, or emphatic.No rhetoric, no tremolos,no self conscious persona putting on its celebrated imitation of Christ or Little Nell.And of course, no theology, no metaphysics.Just the fact of dying and the fact of the clear light.So throw away your baggage and go forward.There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet,trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair.That's why you must walk so lightly.Lightly my darling,on tiptoes and no luggage,not even a sponge bag,completely unencumbered.”-Aldous Huxley "God, I rest in You. I wait patiently for you to flood my awareness with the Love that You are. I look past the illusions of lack, limitation and sin the mind sees, and acknowledge that You alone exist. You are Light, in whom there is no darkness. You are Truth, in whom there is no falsity, You are Love, in whom there is no fear. How marvelous it is to know that there is onlv Your Perfection here, and nothing else whatsoever."-@agaronabke via IG"The moment you wake up, right away, you can smile. That's a smile of enlightenment.

Her wit was apparent from an early age, referring to her father's second wife as “The Housekeeper.” She was described by journalist and critic Alexander Woolcott as “a combination of Little Nell and Lady MacBeth.” As a literary critic, she said of one book, "This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force." The author of the book? Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. My name's Moxie…. This episode drops on Intl Womens Day, and I've covered a lot of remarkable women on the show, for a number of remarkable reasons, but today we focus on ladies for their remarks, for their wit and their wild ways. Tallulah Bankhead is a name I've known for many years, but never really knew anything about her. Back in the day, going to the big “computer show and sale” at the raceway complex with my dad, circa 1996, I picked up some cd-roms of FVM video games and some educational stuff like Microsoft Encarta Musical Instruments and some reference that included hundred of famous quotes. Some of you I realize will have no idea what I just said, a few of you will be unclear what a cd-rom is, but a few of you just got a cold chill like someone walking across your grave. Tallulah Bankhead's wit featured prominently with quotes like, "If I were well behaved, I'd die of boredom," “I read Shakespeare and the Bible, and I can shoot dice. That's what I call a liberal education," and "I'll come and make love to you at five o'clock. If I'm late, start without me." ‘I like her,' I thought, but didn't look into who she actually was until this week. Considering she's the inspiration for one of Disney's most iconic villains, you'd think I'd have come across something between then and now, but not. Bankhead, the daughter of an Alabama congressman and future speaker of the House, was named after her paternal grandmother, whose name was inspired by Tallulah Falls, Georgia. That grandmother would raise her when her mother died a few days after her birth and the loss sent her father into a pit of depression and alcoholism. Little Tallulah was… difficult. Tallulah discovered at an early age that theatrics were a viable outlet for gaining the attention, good or bad, that she craved. A series of throat and chest infections as a child had left her with a raspy voice which would later become her trademark. It also made her stand out from her classmates, but Tallulah was not the type to be bullied and soon became the terror or students and the bane of teachers. She would find herself sent to, and expelled from, two different convent schools, the first for once for throwing ink at a nun and the next time for making a pass at one. At 15, Bankhead submitted her own photo to film industry magazine Picture Play, winning a small part in a movie and a trip to New York. She was allowed to go only by promising her father, a Congressman, she'd abstain from men and alcohol, but as she famously put it in her autobiography, "He didn't say anything about women and cocaine." She was a self-described "technical virgin" until 20. Though she lacked training and discipline, she possessed a dazzling stage presence, her husky voice providing fascinating contrast with her good looks. Quickly ascending to stardom, she just as easily gained renown for her quick-witted outspokenness and indefatigable party going. In New York, Bankhead moved into the famous Algonquin Hotel, a hotspot for the artistic and literary elite of the era, and was quickly rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous. After several years starring in films and on stage in New York, Bankhole's acting was praised, but she had not yet scored a big commercial hit. So, she moved to London in 1923, where her stardom grew. Her fame heightened in 1924 when she played Amy in Sidney Howard's They Knew What They Wanted. The show won the 1925 Pulitzer Prize. But Bankhead was best known for her antics off-stage. She'd drive her Bently recklessly through London and if she got lost, she'd hire a black cab to drive to where she was going and she'd follow him. She spent her nights at booze and drug-filled parties, partaking liberally, and reportedly smoked 120 cigarettes a day, which is kind of dubious because how would you have time for anything else. She also openly had a series of relationships with both men and women, including some very famous female personalities of the day. Names attached to her, with or without facts to back it included Greta Garbo, Hattie McDaniel, the first AfrAm actress to win an Oscar, and singer Billie Holiday. One thing that's known with great certainty is that she talked openly about her vices, and women just weren't supposed to do that. Hell, they weren't supposed to *have vices. She found herself included in Hays' "Doom Book", which would help her inspire a Disney villain, since only the worst of the worst were in the Doom Book, but it didn't do much for her career. Brief refresher on the Hays Code, and you can hear lots more about it in the episode Words You Can't Say on TV or Radio, way back in Oct 2018 before I started numbering episodes, the Hays Code a set of strict guidelines all motion pictures companies operated under from 1934 to 1968. It prohibited profanity, suggestive nudity, sexual perversions like homosexuality, interracial relationships, any talk of reproductive anything, and, in case you were unclear where all this came from, it banned ridicule of authority in general and the clergy in particular. This is why married couples in black&white sitcoms slept in separate beds. The Doom Book, which was either a closely guarded secret or never physically existed, was said to have contained the names of over 150 thespians considered too morally tumultuous to be used in movies. So this is the law of the land when a gal like Tallulah Bankhead is running around in cursing like a sailor in hedonistic, drug-fueled, openly-bisexual glee. Giving up on Hollywood, Bankhead returned to Broadway for a decade or so, where she reached her zenith with her performances in The Little Foxes and The Skin of Our Teeth, both of which earned her the New York Drama Critics Circle Award, and was briefly married to actor John Emery. [a la Sam O'Nella] Never heard of him? Me neither. What's his story? I didn't bother. In 1943 she decided to give Hollywood a second try, but Hollywood hadn't had the same thought about her. There was one bright spot, being cast in and praised for Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat in 1944. By the late 1940s and early 1950s, Bankhead's hedonistic lifestyle and excessive drinking had taken its toll. Critics complained that she had become a self-caricature, which feels like a real oof. She kept her career afloat by publishing a best-selling autobiography, touring in plays like Private Lives and Dear Charles, before headlining her own nightclub act. In 1965 she made her last *film appearance, playing a homicidal religious fanatic in the British thriller Die! Die! My Darling! Tallulah Bankhead's final acting assignments included a “Special Guest Villain” stint on the TV series Batman. When she was advised that the series was considered “high camp,” her response was vintage Tallulah: “Don't tell me about camp, dahling! I invented it!” Am I ever going to tell you which Disney villain she inspired? I supposed, if I must. Disney animator Marc Davis once told of his creative process when tasked to create the villain for an upcoming film. (It was 1961 if you want to try to guess.) The chaaracter would become iconic, instantly recognizable whether cartoon or real life. Davis looked to real-life "bad" women, and while he said there were a number of different people who he kept in mind while drawing her, one name rose to the top – Tallulah Bankhead. So no matter if her movie or Broadway career is forgotten, Bankhead will always live on as Cruella de Ville. Mae West When she was good, she was very good. But when she was bad, she made film history. Whether making films, writing plays or flirting with the camera, Mae West was undisputedly the most controversial sex siren of her time and she even landed in jail because of it. She was the queen of double entendres on and off screen, delivering some of the best-remembered quips in movie history. You know the line, "Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?", yeah, that was West In "She Done Him Wrong." in 1933. Mary Jane West was born on Aug. 17, 1893 in Queens, NY to a boxer turned cop and a former corset and fashion model. The acting bug bit the heck out of West when she was tiny, bringing home talent show prizes at age 5. At age 12, she became a professional vaudeville performer. She was secretly married at age 17, but only lived with her husband for a few weeks, though they didn't legally divorce for 31 years. The adult West was rumored to have secretly married another man, but on the whole she preferred younger men. Her long-term partner Paul Novak was 30 years her junior. West was also rumored to have worn custom 8 in platform shoes, because she was only 5'2”. Two tangents, I would have *massive respect for anyone who could even walk in 8in platform, and that's something all the women in today's discussion have in common - they're all my size. In 1926, under the pen name "Jane Mast," West wrote, produced and starred in a play called Sex, about a sex worker named Margie La Monte who was looking to better her situation by finding a well-to-do man to marry well if not wisely. Mae West was sentenced to 10 days in prison and given a $500 fine, charged with “obscenity and corrupting the morals of youth.” The rumor mill went into overtime when she was behind bars – she was permitted to wear silk underpants instead of prison-issue or the warden wined and dined her every night. West was set free after serving eight of the ten days and remarked to reporters that it was “…the first time I ever got anything for good behavior.” Before the show was raided in February of 1927 around 325,000 people had come through the turnstiles. Buns in seats, laddie, buns in seat. Not bothered in the slightest, and probably keenly aware of all the free publicity she just got, West appeared in a string of successful plays, including "The Drag," a 1927 play that was banned from Broadway because of its homosexual theme. If you think people try to tell you what to say these days, imagine having to deal with the likes of the Hays Code or the Catholic Legion of Decency, which I maintain sounds like a pro-wrestling tag team. She was an advocate of gay and transgender rights, which were at the time generally throught to be the same thing, and her belief that "a gay man was actually a female soul housed in a male body" ran counter to the belief at that time that homosexuality was an illness. Her next play, The Pleasure Man ran for only one showing before also being shut down with the whole cast being arrested for obscenity, but this time getting off thanks to a hung jury. West continued to stir up controversy with her plays, including the Broadway smash "Diamond Lil" in 1928, about a loose woman of the 1890s. Dominating the Broadway scene was nice, but West had her eyes set to the, well, to the west and Hollywood. West was 38 years old at the time, which is the age when the phone stops ringing for many actresses, but Paramount Pictures offered West a contract at $5000 a week ($80,000 now) and –luckily for all of us or I might not be talking about her right now– they let her re-write her lines. Her first film, Night After Night, set the tone for her on-screen persona right from jump street, from her first line where a hat check girl says to her “Goodness, what beautiful diamonds.” To which West replied, “Goodness had nothing to do with it, dearie.” Within three years she was the second highest paid person in the United States. The only person earning more was the publishing magnate friggin' William Randolph Hearst. West not only made her own career, she insisted a young Cary Grant be cast opposite her, putting Grant on the road to his Golden Age icon status. That was ‘33's "She Done Him Wrong," which contained her most famous quote, but I'm sorry to tell you that you've been saying it wrong your whole life. Yes, your whole life. You've seen it parodied in cartoons. The line isn't "Why don't you come up and seem me sometime?" "Why don't you come up some time and see me?" Am I being painfully pedantic to point this out? Yes. …. That's all. The public loved Mae West, but her blunt sexuality onscreen rubbed censors the wrong way. In 1934, they began deleting overtly sexy lines and whole scenes from her films. Not about to take that lying down, West doubled up on double entendres, hoping that the censors would delete the most offensive lines and miss the subtler ones. More controversial films followed. West was already 50 when she made "The Heat's On," but her youthful look and performance made the film a cult favorite. She also got banned from the radio for a sketch about Adam and Eve opposite Don Ameche, was on TV a few times, and even recorded two successful rock albums, decades before the late Christopher Lee. Bonus facts: Cassandra Peterson, aka Elvira Mistress of the Dark, was once the lead singer of an Italian punk rock band. MIDROLL The script for this episode started with Bankhead, West, and Dorothy Parker. I recognized that they were demographically pretty similar, though Parker was Jewish and there's a wild theory out there that West was mixed-race, so I started asking around for WOC/LGBT of that same era and one name came up again and again, a name I'd never heard of, an oversight I now know to be a damn shame if ever there was one. Presenting for the elucidation of many listeners, Moms Mabley. Moms, plural not possessive, had been a vaudeville star for half a century on what was called the Chitlin Circuit, before white audiences began to discover her. Her trademarks were her old lady persona, complete with house coat, dust cap and waddling shuffle, and her raunchy, man-hungry humor, which is funny in a few ways when you consider she was an out-and-proud lesbian. Although Moms spent her professional life making people laugh, her personal life had more than its share of grief. If you're not in the mood for tragic backstory, I totally understand if you want to hit your jump-30 button. Born Loretta Mary Aiken in North Carolina in 1894, Moms was the grandaughter of a slave and one of 16 children. She was the victim of rape twice before the age of 14, once by an older black man and the other by the town's white sheriff. Both rapes resulted in pregnancies; both babies were given away. Loretta's father, a volunteer fireman, had been killed when a fire engine exploded, and her mother was run over and killed by a truck while coming home from church on Christmas Day. Her stepfather forced her to marry a man she didn't even like, one assumes to pare down the number of dependent minors in the house. At the age of 14, Loretta ran away to join a minstrel show. A young girl out in the world on her own would normally be a recipe for disaster, heartache and suffering, but Moms had already had enough of all those, thank you very much. She took the name Mabley from her first boyfriend and acquired the nickname Moms later on, though none of my sources, and they are regrettably few and superficial, recounted why. She was only in her early 20's when she devised the old lady character and kept her persona up until her actual age exceeded the character. Like all who played vaudeville, she had multiple talents: dancing, singing, jokes. Unlike many of her contemporaries, she had a gift for crafting original material far stronger than the stock routines others toured with. At the prompting of the vaudeville team Butterbeans and Susie, she moved to New York City in the early 20's and found herself in the the Harlem Renaissance. "I never went back across the Mason-Dixon line," recalled Mabley. "Not for another thirty years." Toward the end of her life, Moms would say “There were some horrible things done to me. I played every state in the Union except Mississippi. I won't go there; they ain't read.” She hardly needed to back then anyway, playing the Apollo so often she could probably have gotten her mail forwarded there. There used to be a showbiz expression, “It won't play in Peoria,” meaning something will not be successful for a wide, Joe Everyman (read: white) audience, and Moms certainly fit that bill. Moms talked about sex constantly. That's not surprising from female comics these days, though it still isn't as acceptable as it is for male comics. But unlike the male comics of Mom's day, she slid into the jokes sideways with a double-entendre or a well-placed pause, rather than the straightforward use of obscenity that would become popular with such later black comedians as Richard Pryor. Although Loretta herself was a lesbian, Moms was that of ''dirty old lady'' with a penchant for younger men. She made fun of older men, subtly ridiculing the ways they wielded authority over women as well as the declining of their sexual powers. Her signature line became: ''Ain't nothin' an old man can do for me but bring me a message from a young man.'' She moved from vaudeville into films, but Hollywood wasn't exactly rolling out the red carpet for black actors and film-makers. That's okay, they said, we'll just do it ourselves. As early as 1929 there were over 460 "colored movie houses" across America. owned and operated by, and catering specifically to, African-Americans, with all-Black cast films, shorts, and even newsreels. But it would be fair to say that these were B-movies, filmed in a couple of days, with whatever equipment and people you could cobble together. Hell, scenes were usually shot in one take, because editing requires more time and money. Where they shone was in the musical numbers, crafting scenes that would have shamed MGM or Warner Brothers, if only they'd had any budget at all. Comedian Slappy White remembered, "It wasn't hard casting the actors. All of us were out of work before the picture started [and we] would all be out of work again as soon as it was finished." Moms starred in 1948's Boarding House Blues where she played landlord to a building of rent-dodging vaudeville performers, which is an amazing premise. The film also showcased "Crip" Heard, a tap dancer with only one arm and one leg. And the best thing about Boarding House Blues? You can actually see it! It's on the free Tubi app, link in the show notes, not a sponsor, and I plan to watch it as soon as I can make myself sit still for 1.5 hours. Watch-party anyone? Film was nice and everything, but it was vinyl records that gave Moms the boost she needed to expand her audience. Comedy records were *the thing in the early 60's.Her first vinyl appearance came a few years prior with the 1956 Vanguard Records release A Night at the Apollo. The album is a fascinating social document with liner notes written by Langston Hughes. Of the many other noteworthy things about that album is the fact that Moms wasn't paid for her part in it. So she was understandably reluctant when the Chess brothers asked her to cut an album with them. Phil and Leonard Chess were Jewish immigrants who arrived in Chicago a few months prior to the stock market crash who were able to buy some South Side bars after the end of prohibition. Their Macomba Lounge became a hot spot when they started booking live music, mostly rhythm and blues, which drew in the biggest crowds. The brothers noticed this, and that the acts who had people lining up around the block, weren't available on records, so they started a record company. Chess Records signed names like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Bo Diddley, and Chuck Berry. These records delivered new found joys for the white public and offered posterity for Chicago's African-American crowd. Always on the lookout for what was popular with their original Black audience, Chess Records asked Moms Mabley to sign, but she understandably didn't want to get screwed again. Luckily her manager was able to persuade her and Moms Mabley on Stage (also known under the name Moms Mabley: The Funniest Woman Alive) was produced. Chicago was host to Hugh Hefner's Playboy Club, a venue that always featured a strong roster of Black performers and plenty of white bohemians, and that's where she recorded Moms Mabley at The Playboy Club. Y'all gotta see this album cover, link in the shownotes. If you were to listen to On Stage and then Playboy Club, you'd notice something…different between the two albums. On Stage was recorded at The Apollo and opens with a thunderous cacophony of cheerings. Playboy Club, not as much, because that album was recorded in front of an all-white audience. It was time for a cross-over. It was also the time for civil rights –lunch counters, fire hoses, marches. Mabley's act became increasingly political, but her benevolent old grandma persona made her non-threatening and more accessible to white crowds. Moms knew white audiences needed to hear her message now, and that they might actually hear her. She was just a little old lady, shuffling onto the stage, how threatening could she be? Plus she was on the biggest TV shows of the day –Merv Griffin, Johnny Carson, Flip Wilson, Mike Douglas, the Smothers Brothers– and they were okay, so she must be okay. Moms had crossed over. She played Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center. She put out more albums, including my favorite title, Young Men Si, Old Men No. She began acting in big studio films, like The Cincinatti Kid, with Steve McQueen. In 1966 Moms returned to the South for the first time in over three decades. It, uh, didn't go great. In the middle of her show, five shots rang out in the theater and Moms scrambled off-stage. Thankfully, the shots went nowhere near her, originating apparently from a fight between audience members. Regardless, a story made the rounds that one of the bullets went straight through her floppy hat. "I hadn't been in Columbia, South Carolina, for thirty-five years," explained Moms, "and [now] bullets ran me out of town." Music became a regular part of her act, and a cover version of "Abraham, Martin and John" hit No. 35 on the Billboard Hot 100 on July 19, 1969, making Mabley, at 75, the oldest living person to have a U.S. Top 40 hit. Mabley continued performing in the 1970s. In 1971, she appeared on The Pearl Bailey Show. Later that year, she opened for Ike & Tina Turner at the Greek Theatre and sang a tribute to Louis Armstrong as part of her set.[24] While filming the 1974 film Amazing Grace, (her only film starring role)[1] Mabley suffered a heart attack. She returned to work three weeks later, after receiving a pacemaker. She is survived not only by her children (she had four other children as an adult), but by more contemporary comedians who remember her and want to keep her story alive. She was the subject of a Broadway play by Clarice Taylor, who played one of the grandma's on the Cosby Show; two projects from Whoopi Goldberg, one being the comedy show that put Goldberg on the map in 1984 and a documentary in 2013, and in season 3 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, where she was portrayed by lifelong fan Wanda Sykes. And that's… Dorothy Parker's wit was, deservedly, the stuff of legend. Of the Yale prom, she said, “ If all the girls attending it were laid end to end, I wouldn't be at all surprised.” It was that saucy humor that got her fired from her job as a staff writer at Vanity Fair. Parker spoke openly about having had an abortion, a thing that simply was not done in the 1920's, saying, “It serves me right for putting all my eggs in one bastard.” A firm believer in civil rights, she bequeathed her literary estate to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Remember Sources: https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/person/204532%7C103917/Mae-West/#biography https://www.britannica.com/biography/Mae-West https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/52283/13-things-you-might-not-know-about-mae-west http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2012/04/this-day-in-history-mae-west-is-sentenced-to-10-days-in-prison-for-writing-directing-and-performing-in-the-broadway-play-sex/ https://www.britannica.com/biography/Tallulah-Bankhead https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2021/05/real-cruella-de-vil-tallulah-bankhead https://www.nytimes.com/1987/08/09/theater/theater-the-pain-behind-the-laughter-of-moms-mabley.html https://dorothyparker.com/gallery/biography https://bookshop.org/books/your-brain-on-facts-things-you-didn-t-know-things-you-thought-you-knew-and-things-you-never-knew-you-never-knew-trivia-quizzes-fun-fa/9781642502534?aid=14459&listref=books-based-on-podcasts https://www.mamamia.com.au/tallulah-bankhead-cruella/

As we take December to spend some time with our families and plan 2022, we wanted to re-release a few of our favorite episodes. Carlton McCoy's was incredibly inspiring, and if you are looking for worthy causes to support, The Roots Fund is right up there on our list. Carlton earned the title of Master Sommelier in 2013 at just 28 years old. He was one of the youngest people, and the second African American, to earn this prestigious title. Carlton worked in revered institutions such as Thomas Keller's Per Se and Tom Colicchio's Craft Steak in New York before becoming the Wine Director at The Little Nell in Aspen before being named President and CEO of Heitz Cellar in December 2018. In 2020, Carlton was named Managing Partner of Lawrence Wine Estates, overseeing the purchase of Burgess Cellars, Stony Hill Vineyards, the Haynes Vineyard, and the historical Wildwood Vineyard Carlton is also a co-founder of The Roots Fund, a non-profit that focuses on creating educational and employment opportunities for our BIPOC community. Today we speak to Carlton about what it has been like to be a person of color in the wine business, and how he finds balance with all he does. We also discuss his new business venture, as well as his foundation helping people of color gain access to the very exclusive world of wine. Interested in sponsoring us?

GUS: THE THEATRE CAT Gus is the Cat at the Theatre Door. His name, as I ought to have told you before, Is really Asparagus. That's such a fuss To pronounce, that we usually call him just Gus. His coat's very shabby, he's thin as a rake, And he suffers from palsy that makes his paw shake. Yet he was, in his youth, quite the smartest of Cats— But no longer a terror to mice and to rats. For he isn't the Cat that he was in his prime; Though his name was quite famous, he says, in its time. And whenever he joins his friends at their club (Which takes place at the back of the neighbouring pub) He loves to regale them, if someone else pays, With anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days. For he once was a Star of the highest degree— He has acted with Irving, he's acted with Tree. And he likes to relate his success on the Halls, Where the Gallery once gave him seven cat-calls. But his grandest creation, as he loves to tell, Was Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell. 'I have played', so he says, 'every possible part, And I used to know seventy speeches by heart. I'd extemporize back-chat, I knew how to gag, And I knew how to let the cat out of the bag. I knew how to act with my back and my tail; With an hour of rehearsal, I never could fail. I'd a voice that would soften the hardest of hearts, Whether I took the lead, or in character parts. I have sat by the bedside of poor Little Nell; When the Curfew was rung, then I swung on the bell. In the Pantomime season I never fell flat, And I once understudied Dick Whittington's Cat. But my grandest creation, as history will tell, Was Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell.' Then, if someone will give him a toothful of gin, He will tell how he once played a part in East Lynne. At a Shakespeare performance he once walked on pat, When some actor suggested the need for a cat. He once played a Tiger—could do it again— Which an Indian Colonel pursued down a drain. And he thinks that he still can, much better than most, Produce blood-curdling noises to bring on the Ghost. And he once crossed the stage on a telegraph wire, To rescue a child when a house was on fire. And he says: 'Now, these kittens, they do not get trained As we did in the days when Victoria reigned. They never get drilled in a regular troupe, And they think they are smart, just to jump through a hoop.' And he'll say, as he scratches himself with his claws, 'Well, the Theatre's certainly not what it was. These modern productions are all very well, But there's nothing to equal, from what I hear tell, That moment of mystery When I made history As Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell.'

Bobby Stuckey is a restauranteur in Boulder Co. His resume is beyond impressive. Starting as a bus boy at age 13 in Scottsdale he worked his way up the ranks and later became a Master Sommelier taking the Wine Director position at The Little Nell in Aspen, and the world renowned French Laundry in Yountville. He now runs Frasca Hospitality and over the past year he has been one of the main leaders and founders of the Independent Restaurant Coalition where he fought daily with Congress and politicians to fund the RRF and make specific changes to the PPP for the hospitality industry.
As a 13 year old dyslexic student struggling through school, and of course not knowing he was dyslexic, Bobby Stuckey started bussing tables at a Greek restaurant in Phoenix. His journey continued, with Bobby working his way up from dishwasher to management and taking a path through The Little Nell restaurant in Aspen in 1995, as sommelier then in 2000, onto Thomas Keller's French Laundry in Napa where Bobby's team won the James Beard Foundation's Award for Outstanding Wine Service and where Bobby met his present day business partner, Chef Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson. In 2004, Bobby earned his Master Sommelier Diploma. He and his partners opened Frasca in Boulder, CO where Stuckey and his team again won the Beard award for Outstanding Service, later changed to Outstanding Hospitality, at Bobby's suggestion. In 2007 Stuckey and Mackinnon-Patterson launched Scarpetta Wines. Today, the partners own and operate Frasca and Pizzeria Locale in Boulder and Tavernetta and Sunday Vinyl in Denver.

Today I speak with Carlton McCoy MS from the Roots Fund and Demeine Estates about Black representation in the wine industry. Carlton grew up in southeast Washington DC where wine was not part of his family or culture. After winning the C-CAP (Careers Through Culinary Arts Program) cooking contest, he earned a full scholarship to the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, which kickstarted his wine career. Carlton became a Master Sommelier when he was only 28 years old, and was the second African American to earn the title. To date, there are only 3 Black Master Sommeliers out of 269. He was the Wine Director at The Little Nell in Aspen before becoming President and CEO of Heitz Cellar and Demeine Estates.Carlton and I discuss the situation of black wine professionals and the importance of mentorship. We also chat about the Roots Fund, which provides wine education, mentorship, and job opportunities for people of color.

Then, for Song of the Week, both guys pick 50s-60s throwbacks from later eras. Gurdip selects the extremely obscure "See You Round Like A Record" by Little Nell, paying homage to 60s girl-groups, while Justin highlights Billy Joel's doo-wop tribute "For The Longest Time," and explores its roots in Mozart-esque classical music.

Can you imagine what it has been like for restaurants during the pandemic? Today we speak to hospitality giant Bobby Stuckey about his personal experience, and about his work for the IRC (Independent Restaurant Coalition), as they fight for the places that are the backbone of our social lives. Besides being a Master Sommelier, Bobby is the Co-Owner of the Frasca Hospitality Group, which includes Frasca Food and Wine, Sunday Vinyl, Tavernetta and Pizzeria Locale Boulder as well as Scarpetta Wines. Bobby began his distinguished career in restaurants in his home state of Arizona, working his way from dishwasher to management. In 1995, he joined The Little Nell restaurant in Aspen as a sommelier. In 2000, Stuckey moved west to work with world-renowned chef Thomas Keller at The French Laundry in Yountville, California. It was here that Bobby met his future business partner, chef Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson. With the vision of opening a neighborhood restaurant reminiscent of the Italian frascas they had visited in Italy's Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, Stuckey and Mackinnon-Patterson opened their first restaurant, Frasca Food and Wine, in August 2004, in Boulder, CO.

Ryan Hardy is the Chef & CEO of Delicious Hospitality Group. The group that brought you New York’s Charlie Bird, Pasquale Jones, Ada's Place, Easy Victor Café, & my former stomping grounds Legacy Records Restaurant. Fresh out of college, the Kentucky bred chef began his career at Robert De Niro's San Francisco restaurant, Rubicon. At 25 he took on the Rustique Bistro in Aspen that made Esquire's 'Best New Restaurant' list. Progressed to working with Mark Miller at the Coyote Cafe in Santa Fe' before taking on the Harbor View Hotel on Martha's Vineyard in MA, where he won 'Best new chef in New England.' He then returned to Aspen to run culinary operations for the famed Little Nell. It was there that he decided to take his passion for Slow Food to the next level- he went on to own and operate a 30-acre organic farm. It was not long until he was nominated for a James Beard award, not once, but four times. In 2013 he took his talents to NYC, which led to the creation of Charlie Bird, and ultimately, Delicious Hospitality Group. This episode means a lot to us, being that this is the reason why we decided to keep this episode as raw as possible. We wanted it to be all-natural, just like the Gamay we're drinking from Vivanterre, a natural wine project from Beaujolais. Perfect for the conversation.

After studying geology and gaining a BS, an MS and nearly a JD, Richard Betts discovered a love of wine. He served as the wine director at The Little Nell in Aspen from 2000 to 2008, and while there, in all his spare time, in 2003, Richard was the 9th person to ever pass the Court of Master Sommeliers’ Masters Exam on the first attempt. Richard co-founded the wine labels Betts & Scholl in 2003 and Scarpetta in 2006 and founded Sombra Mezcal in 2006. Today, Richard runs Komos Tequila and Superbird Paloma (in a beautiful can), My Essential Wines, and the wine from Barossa in South Australia, “An Approach To Relaxation.” Richard is the New York Times best-selling author of “The Essential Scratch & Sniff Guide to Becoming a Wine Expert” and “The Essential Scratch & Sniff Guide to Becoming a Whiskey Know-It-All.” And after nearly two decades as a Master Sommelier, and feeling disillusioned by the lack of evolution in the organization, Richard has altered the wine world forever, by being the first person to resign as a Master Sommelier. He is here to tell us about his journey and his decision. Here are the show notes: Richard covers his background and his path towards becoming a Master Sommelier. He takes on a journey of what it was like for him in the early 2000s and how the Court of Master Sommeliers of that time fostered his love of learning and wine We talk about Richard’s growing concerns about the Court of Master Sommeliers over time and then we delve into the two major issues that made him quit the organization: The Cheating Scandal of 2018, in which a Master Sommelier gave away answers to the blind tasting portion of the exam to several people in California, and then the Board revoked all certifications of the credential around the world with no explanation or apology. The apathy of the Board of Directors of the Court of Master Sommeliers to the Black Lives Matter Movement, and their veto of a statement of inclusivity to remain “neutral.” Richard tells us how he quit the organization and the painful and extensive steps he took to try to fix things before he made this drastic step. To editorialize: Richard is a hero in the wine world. He has left an indelible mark that screams “I value integrity over status and exclusivity.” His moral compass, intelligence, and down-to-earth style and, ultimately, its lack of fit with the Court should have us all questioning why we give so much deference to those with the credential, when it is a reductive look at one’s ability to take an exam well, not to be the best wine professional s/he can be. Bravo to Richard. He is a hero and a model for us all. Here is a link to his resignation letter. _______________________________________________________ Thanks to our sponsors this week: Wine Access Visit: www.wineaccess.com/normal and for a limited time get $20 off your first order of $50 or more!

Mrs. Zahl and I had a sort of 'Abraham/Sarah' moment (i.e., Genesis 17) this week, and it brought to mind an immortal song from 1974, performed by Paul Anka. But it was all because of the virus! This new cast, which is the 300th, talks about the supernatural Power of God in relation to the scourge that is whipping us all. I bring back an 'Oldie but Goodie', William Hale White (aka 'Mark Rutherford'), to witness concerning the Power of God through a remarkable short essay he penned in 1908. The essay is entitled "Little Nell". The conceit of White's elliptical piece is that actual conversion and authentic transformation is possible within the human situation. Not just "God with us" in our pain; but God come to reverse it, and heal it. In "Little Nell" William Hale White moves from Dickens' account of an old man's conversion to non-self-referenced love for his grand-daughter, to the conversion of St. Paul, to the power of outside love to alter the entire chemistry of the "inner man". The cast concludes with an excerpt from Eddie James's track "Power", assisted by Ashley Brison and Patricia Miller, which, if this doesn't get you out of your seat, then the virus-panic really has gotten to you. LUV U!

There are only 2 Black Master Sommeliers in the entire United States; Carlton is one of them, beating the odds of being raised in Washington D.C. during the 80s crack epidemic and living the streetlife, to attending the Culinary Institute of America, becoming Wine Director at Little Nell in Aspen, Colorado, and being offered his current position, President & CEO of the legendary Heitz Cellar Winery in Napa Valley. This is a must-listen for anyone born into difficult odds.
Sabato Sagaria got his engines started at Cornell, The Greenbriar Hotel, and The Inn at Little Washington. The pace picked up at The Little Nell and Union Sq. Hospitality where he rose to Chief Restaurant Office and...became a member of the court of Master Sommeliers along the way. Sabato left USHG and is now the President of bartaco.

Welcome to the House of Crouse. It's astounding. Time is fleeting. 42 years have zipped by since Patricia Quinn and Little Nell Campbell became cult heroes courtesy of their starring roles in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." They drop by and madness takes control of the HoC. Then author Claire Cameron talks about her fascinating book "The Last Neanderthal," a suspenseful, and profoundly moving book that asks us to reconsider all we think we know about what it means to be human. It's good stuff, so c'mon in and sit a spell.
In this podcast AspenRealLife Editor in Chief, Jillian Livingston, interviews Jim Horowitz, Founder, President and CEO of Jazz Aspen Snowmass and JAS Cafè. An evangelist for the gospel of jazz, Jim tells of the summer JAS Cafè schedule and all that is happening this summer at the Aspen Cooking School, The Little Nell and .... Jazz Aspen began in June 1991 as a small 3 day event. Over time they grew to add a second multi genre outdoor event in Snowmass Town Park in 1996. JAS ( Jazz Aspen Snowmass ) continued to grow through the years, adding music education programs for local public school students as well as high level career training for gifted young artists. In 2012, The 501 C 3 Not for Profit organization JAS launched a new intimate nightclub at the prestigious 5 star Little Nell Hotel in Aspen , called the JAS Cafe, which has quickly earned a permanent spot on the busy Aspen culture calendar, with year round jazz and world music concerts in both winter and summer. JAS is now in its 27th Season
“She was a combination of Little Nell and Lady Macbeth,” said Alexander Woolcott. Dorothy Parker (1893-1967) wrote short stories, poems, reviews, screenplays, and more. Perhaps most famously, she was part of the group of New Yorkers known as the Algonquin Round Table, which met every day for lunch and eventually grew famous for their witticisms, put-downs, and general high spirits. A woman of brilliance as well as deep contradiction, Parker at her best combined romantic optimism with a dark, biting pessimism that still feels modern. In this episode, Jacke is joined by the President of the Literature Supporters Club for a field report of the Algonquin Hotel today and a discussion of Parker’s life, works, and top ten quips.

This week on All in the Industry, Shari Bayer goes “On the Road” with a special episode from the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen. This annual event, now in its 34th year, took place from June 16-19 and is considered to be the crème-de-la-crème of culinary events. Shari reports to the HRN studio to share highlights and several excellent “behind-the-scenes" interviews with industry participants, including Amex Restaurant Trade Program’s Danielle Wallis, Food & Wine's Best New Chef Michael Gullato, wine guru Paul Grieco, photographer Hugh Galdones, and restaurateur Hugh Acheson. Shari also plays her Speed Round game with TV host and personality Andrew Zimmern of Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel, and finishes off the show with her solo dining experience at Aspen’s popular Ajax Tavern at The Little Nell.
On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, we scratch & sniff with Richard Betts, literally. His second edition this olfactory series, The Essential Scratch & Sniff Guide to Becoming a Whiskey Know-It-All: Know Your Booze Before You Choose, exemplifies Betts background as a master sommelier at the Little Nell in Aspen. It's all about objective and deductive reasoning, which will lead you to your_spirit_ spirt (kind of like a power animal). Broken down by GRAIN (corn, wheat, rye, barley, rice, millet, quinoa …), WOOD (new vs. used barrels), and PLACE (Scotland uses sherry from Spain and bourbon from USA, whereas Japan uses oak called mizunara), it's only a matter of time until you too have mastered whiskey. Betts, now a producer of My Essential Wine varietals, and Sombra mezcal, will have you turning your drinking data into a dogma soon enough.
Richard Betts (@yobetts) served as the wine director at The Little Nell in Aspen from 2000 to 2008. Much more interesting to me, Richard passed the Court of Master Sommeliers' Masters Exam on his first attempt, becoming the ninth person in history ever to do so. I first met Richard through investing wunderkind Chris Sacca, and we immediately hit it off. Richard can help you train your senses for anything, including wine, whiskey, his current love of mezcal, and far beyond. He's also done a lot of wild experiments, got a lot of tattoos, almost been shot in Mexico, and developed an incredible ability to simplify the complex. We get along. In this conversation, we talk about nearly everything, ranging from the value of quitting to tricks of the trade, travel tips (he's traveling 300+ days per year), and "starter" wines. We also drink a boat-load of whiskey, me tasting and Richard teaching. The pictures below show a sample. Side note and cool rule of thumb: did you know it's spelled "whiskey" when from countries that have "e" in their names (e.g. America) but "whisky" when from countries that don't have an "e" in their names (e.g. Scotland, Japan)? Richard taught me that. Last but not least, Richard is the author of a brand-new book, “The Essential Scratch & Sniff Guide to Becoming a Whiskey Know-It-All,” which is sitting on my kitchen table with whiskey stains all over it. It distils (see what I did there?) a couple of lifetimes worth of study down to 24 pages...then makes them smell good. Definitely check it out. At the very least, it gives you a bunch of rules of thumb (like the whiskey vs. whisky trick), so you can impress your friends and not look like a dumb-ass at the bar. Sweet! Less dumb-ass and more smart-ass is always good. Get 'er done. Show notes and links for this episode can be found at www.fourhourworkweek.com/podcast. This podcast is brought to you by MeUndies.

Meet Carlton McCoy, Wine Director at the Little Nell in Aspen, Colorado and one of only two African American Master Sommeliers. He’s Joe Campanale’s guest this week on In the Drink, and the two wine professionals chat about everything from regional clientele to the masters sommelier test. This program was sponsored by Cain Vineyard & Winery. “There’s an absolute concentration of wealth in Colorado. Per capita, the income is extremely high so people can afford to buy the best wines in the world.” [10:00] “The title mater sommelier itself is a very aggressive sounding thing, it’s not a very approachable title.” [15:00] –Carlton McCoy on In the Drink

On Stitcher. Episode Transcript Welcome to TFP, the Theatrefolk podcast. I am Lindsay Price, resident playwright for Theatrefolk. Hello, I hope you're well. Thanks for listening. Before we get going I have to mention the FREE, that's right FREE drama teacher training we're offering this week Saturday November 9th at 12 noon EST called The One Technique you need to be a 21st century Drama Teacher. OK. That's a mouthful but the title says it all – 21st century skills are becoming necessary for today's teacher but what if you don't have time to become a technology expert? And how could you ever keep up with students who eat, sleep and breathe technology? And what do drama and technology have in common anyway? Are we all gonna sit in front of our computers and do improv games? So this training is just for you. I'm going to show you what you need to be tech-savvy in the classroom with specific exercises for drama teachers and I promise this workshop is 100% technobabble free. All you need is access to the internet. Go to 21drama.com. That's the number 21. 21drama.com and registar for this free training now. You do not want to miss out. So today we have an interview with another one of our authors. John Donald O'Shea who goes by Don. And Don has three plays with us, a classic melodrama with a modern twist called Little Nell and the Mortgage Foreclosure, a full out modern melodrama called The Revolting Cheerleaders and a lovely gem of a Christmas play called The First Herald Angel. Don has had such an interesting journey along his playwriting path of which the takeaway is it's never too late to start writing, and everyone can find that doorway into their creative side. OK. So take it away Don! Lindsay: Hello everybody, I am here with one of our playwrights. I have Donald O'Shea. Now, you go by Don, is that right? Don: Yes I do, and I think I was one of your first playwrights. Lindsay: I think you were, too. We've got three of your plays. We have Little Nell and the Mortgage Foreclosure; The Revolting Cheerleaders, which is one of my favorite titles; and The First Herald Angel. Don: I think you're correct. Lindsay: Oh, good. It always embarrasses me when I get names of titles [laughs] of other people's works wrong. [Laughs] Don: [Laughs] Because you were my first publisher, I always sent my plays to you first. Whether you use them or not is up to you, but I've always respected the fact that you were the first guy to put me on the map and I like to send my stuff to you first. So that's kind of how I operate. Lindsay: That's awesome. Okay, well, that's the first thing I want to talk to you about, is before you started writing plays, you had a pretty different life. Don: I had a very different life. Lindsay: Tell everybody what was your job. What did you do…? Don: Well, I started out as a young assistant state's attorney. I graduated from that – I became the city attorney of Moline, Illinois, and about four years later in 1974 I was elected a circuit judge, and I did that for 26 years. In Illinois, you don't run for reelection on a partisan ballot – you run on a retention ballot, and I was retained four times. You have to run every six years. Lindsay: Right. Don: So that's what I did. Lindsay: So where does playwriting fit into this? Don: It all came about when I was a member of the Board of Directors of the Quad City Music Guild. They in those days produced three musicals each...
Bobby began his distinguished career working in restaurants in Arizona until he moved to Colorado in 1995 to join the staff of The Little Nell restaurant in Aspen as a sommelier. During his five-year tenure, the restaurant received numerous awards for wine and service, including the Gourmet’s “Best Wine Service” Award, Mobile Travel Guide’s Five Star Hotel and Restaurant Rating, Wine Spectator’s Grand Award, and a nomination from The James Beard Foundation for “Best Wine Service”. In 2000, Bobby joined world-renowned chef Thomas Keller at The French Laundry in Yountville, California. Within his first year, Bobby received The James Beard Foundation’s “Outstanding Wine Service” Award and San Francisco Magazine recognized him as “Wine Director of the Year”. He also met his future business partner, chef de partie Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson. Before leaving The French Laundry in May 2003, the restaurant received The James Beard Foundation’s award for “Outstanding Restaurant Service”. In their pursuit and vision of opening a neighborhood restaurant reminiscent of the Frascas they had visited in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy, Lachlan and Bobby opened their restaurant, Frasca Food and Wine, in August of 2004 in Boulder, CO. Having researched and traveled throughout Italy many times, both were deeply inspired by this region in particular — the international influences of its cuisine, the profusion of local ingredients in its rustic yet elegant dishes, its passionate relationship between food and wine, and the gracious hospitality of the locals. Bobby earned the Master Sommelier Diploma from the Court of Master Sommeliers in 2004. This diploma is considered by many the ultimate professional credential in the wine and spirits services industry. In 2008, Bobby was nominated by the James Beard Foundation for the “Outstanding Wine and Spirits Professional” Award and in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 was nominated again for “Outstanding Wine Service in America”. In May of 2013, was given the award. These prestigious distinctions notwithstanding, Bobby walks the dining room nightly, enthusiastically dispensing advice, recommendations, and sharing his passion for wine with Frasca guests. Tune-in to this week’s program to learn more about how Bobby excels in customer service within his restaurants, and is able to bring the amazing flavors of wines from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region to life. This program has been sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons. Thanks to The California Honeydrops for today’s music. “Anybody that works at The French Laundry – you take a lot from that experience.” [8:30] “There is no other place for a wine person that is so special, than Friuli-Venezia Giulia.” [28:10] — Bobby Stuckey on In the Drink

The Drum's Audio Editor Ethan Wolff Mann joined in the conversation while Amis took a lunch break at the Keltic Krust Bakery in West Newton, Massachusetts.
