And in Mad About Music, Deanna Durbin's doing the exact opposite - trying to match Herbert Marshall with Gail Patrick, while dealing with school bullies, mistaken identities, and that elusive High C note!

Lux Radio Theatre, a hugely popular hour-long radio show, brought dramas to life with live audiences for over twenty years. It aired on various networks from 1934 to 1955 and started with Broadway plays before switching to movies. It was so successful it even got a TV version, Lux Video Theatre. Sponsored by Lux Soap, the show kicked off in 1934 with Seventh Heaven and had recurring characters like producer Douglass Garrick. A big moment came in 1936 when Cecil B. DeMille became the host, attracting big movie stars. They paid actors well, usually getting the original stars from the films they adapted. While focused on movies, they also had famous radio personalities. They even adapted a radio show, The Life of Riley, and did a show with an all-soldier cast during World War II. There's a funny story about a made-up blooper involving Sonny Tufts that people thought was real. DeMille left over a disagreement about union rules. After him, several people hosted until William Keighley took over for a while. The show had tons of famous stage and screen stars, making it a real golden age of radio.

Can Falk bring down an accounting firm with ties to organized crime? Can math lead to redemption? What's the Croatian equivalent of “bada boom, bada bing”? Listen to find out!No Accounting for Taste, episode 129 of This Gun in My Hand, was put in the red and written off by Rob Northrup. This episode and all others are available on Youtube with automatically-generated closed captions of dialog. Visit http://ThisGuninMyHand.blogspot.com for credits, show notes, archives, and to buy my books, such as Sisyphus, Eat Your Heart Out, available in paperback and ebook from Amazon. How do I move data from temporary accounts on an income statement to permanent accounts on a balance sheet? With This Gun in My Hand!Show Notes:1. The absurd street names and Mr. Bellechek's convoluted plan were inspired by/in homage to/ripped off from the public domain January 31, 1949 episode of Lux Radio Theatre titled “The Street With No Name.” A section of dialog with the boss and mugs repeating his plan were taken almost verbatim from there.https://archive.org/details/OTRR_Lux_Radio_Theatre_Season_15_Singles/Lux_Radio_Theatre_49-01-31_643_Street_with_No_Name.mp32. I have no opinion about the efficacy or personality of any sport team manager ever and intend no satirical commentary on them in this story. It's up to consumers of stories how to interpret them anyway. Don't get me started on “The Death of the Author” theory because I will go off. The audio and text of This Gun in My Hand are works of fiction. Any references to historical events, real people, or real places are used fictitiously. Other names, characters, places and events are products of the author's imagination, and any resemblance to actual events or places or persons or organized crime families, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. No managers were harmed in the making of this story.3. Most of the absurd street names are taken from titles of actual noir films or old songs.4. Here's the wikipedia entry on the Five Families who run the Mafia in NYC.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_FamiliesCredits:The opening music clip was from The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950), and the closing music was from Killer Bait (1949), both films in the public domain. Most of the music and sound effects used in the episode are modified or incomplete versions of the originals.Music Title (background for commercial): Clarinet SquawkComposed by Anton Lada, Yellow Nuņez and Joe CawleyPerformed by Louisiana FiveRecorded 12 September 1919, Edison 50609-RLicense: Public Domainhttps://freemusicarchive.org/music/Louisiana_Five/Edison_Blue_Amberol_3896/Clarinet_squawk/ Sound Effect Title: HARP GLISSANDO DOWN.WAVLicense: Public Domainhttps://freesound.org/people/olver/sounds/505064/Sound Effect Title: 38 Caliber Gun Shot 5xRecorded by Mike KoenigLicense: Creative Commons Attribution 3.0http://soundbible.com/375-38-Caliber-Gun-Shot-5x.htmlThe image accompanying this episode is a modified detail of the paperback cover of Down and Out by Les Masters, painted by Victor Olson, thought to be public domain.Image Alt text: Painting of a man in blue suit, white shirt, light blue striped tie, seated behind a desk. He's smiling slightly with his elbows on the desktop, his hands together in front of him with a lit cigarette. He has dark hair. The desk has a pencil cup and only one paper on it. Beside him is a sliver of window with a view of the nighttime cityscape and a vertical sign just outside the window that reads “ACCOUNT”. Presumably the rest of the word is cut off.

Lux Radio Theatre, a hugely popular hour-long radio show, brought dramas to life with live audiences for over twenty years. It aired on various networks from 1934 to 1955 and started with Broadway plays before switching to movies. It was so successful it even got a TV version, Lux Video Theatre. Sponsored by Lux Soap, the show kicked off in 1934 with Seventh Heaven and had recurring characters like producer Douglass Garrick. A big moment came in 1936 when Cecil B. DeMille became the host, attracting big movie stars. They paid actors well, usually getting the original stars from the films they adapted. While focused on movies, they also had famous radio personalities. They even adapted a radio show, The Life of Riley, and did a show with an all-soldier cast during World War II. There's a funny story about a made-up blooper involving Sonny Tufts that people thought was real. DeMille left over a disagreement about union rules. After him, several people hosted until William Keighley took over for a while. The show had tons of famous stage and screen stars, making it a real golden age of radio.

The Show Off  February 1, 1943. "The Show-Off". Sponsored by: Lux, Vimms. A loud-mouthed but lovable braggart talks himself into big trouble, and talks himself out of it as well! The story was produced on The Lux Radio Theatre previously on December 9, 1935.
