The unique, unquenchable writer and activist Grace Paley would have turned 100 in 2022. On this Selected Shorts, host Meg Wolitzer shares our tribute to the influential and outspoken New Yorker who was a great friend of the series. Paley's emphasis on friends, family, and doing the right thing are evident in the three stories on this show. In “Wants,” a woman has a chance encounter while returning a lot of overdue library books. It's read by Adina Verson. Two old friends work their way from childhood to middle age in “Ruthy and Edie,” read by Rita Wolf. And we meet a woman with a wonderfully checkered past in “Goodbye and Good Luck,” read by Joanna Gleason. Featuring commentary from novelist Lauren Groff.
Mimi Paley joins Will and Sabrina as she reminisces on her role in “Alley Cats Strike”. Plus, find out her connection to “The Cheetah Girls”!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers Network radio opened 1949 fresh off its fourteenth consecutive year of record earnings. Total network revenue exceeded Two-hundred-ten million dollars. Broadway Is My Beat first took to the air over CBS from New York on February 27th, 1949, It starred Anthony Ross and was directed by John Dietz. Dietz was a prolific radio man in the 1940s. He helped get Suspense off the ground and had success with New York-based shows like Casey, Crime Photographer. Early CBS press material for the show told how “as a kid, Danny Clover sold papers and shined shoes along the Great White Way. He later walked the beat as a policeman and knows everything along Broadway—from pan handler to operatic prima donna—but he's still sentimental. The street is forever a wonderland of glamor to him.” CBS was in the middle of the “Packaged Program Initiative.” When head of CBS William Paley returned from World War II in 1946, he saw his network behind NBC in ratings, revenue, and star power. Paley decided to greenlight and cost-sustain shows in order to develop hits not controlled by advertising agencies. The gamble paid off. By February of 1949 CBS had found success with sitcoms like My Friend Irma and Our Miss Brooks. The network was also using capital gains tax laws to sign production deals with stars like Jack Benny, George Burns, Gracie Allen, Red Skelton, and Bing Crosby. For a deep dive on this, please tune into Breaking Walls episodes 108 through 112. Meanwhile, after fifteen weeks Broadway is My Beat was floundering. CBS was going to pull the plug at the end of May when NBC found its first post-talent raid hit. A new police procedural, Dragnet, launched on June 3rd, 1949. The brainchild of Jack Webb, it was unlike anything heard on the air at that point. CBS brass decided to move Broadway is My Beat's production to Hollywood. Elliott Lewis was by then starring as Frankie Remley on The Phil Harris and Alice Faye Show and helping to edit scripts for Bill Spier on Suspense. With the urging of men like Spier and Bill Robson, Lewis was given the chance to direct the newly migrated series. He was born in Manhattan on November 28th, 1917. He told Radio Life, “You should hear the city constantly. Even the people in New York are noisy.” Three soundmen were often needed to re-create that New York flavor. Lewis immediately tabbed Morton Fine and David Friedkin to write the series. Here's Morton Fine. Lewis' first episode came on Thursday, July 7th, 1949 when the repackaged Broadway is My Beat debuted as a summer replacement for The FBI In Peace And War. Larry Thor would star as Danny Clover. The change in tenor was immediately evident. Rounding out the regular cast was Charles Calvert as Tartaglia and Jack Kruschen doubling as both Sergeant Muggavan and Doctor Sinski. The last episode of the seven week summer run was “The Val Dane Case,” airing on August 25th, 1949. By then the show had begun to hit its stride. Broadway is My Beat stretched for the poetic metaphor and if the tone was sometimes heavy and wordy, the scenes were gritty, and the crimes were less-than-glamorous. After the initial summer run, the CBS network executives were happy with Elliott Lewis' work and decided to bring the show back in the fall.

Show NotesWe start with the next chapter selected by the randomiser in our 50 Arguments for God book. “Can We Be Certain That Jesus Died on a Cross? A Look at the Ancient Practice of Crucifixion” We agree that the answer is Yes, and enjoy ourselves on the way. Then we move on to another random chapter which is on how our planet is ideal for doing astronomy – “Designed for Discovery”. This leads to a wider discussion on Design Arguments. We look at their history and cover Aquinas, Hume and Paley, but run out of time at the start of the 19thC.

— Capital has no insightsEric argues that venture capital alone doesn't solve business problems, and having more capital doesn't necessarily lead to better outcomes.— Compounding value vs. negative valueThe importance of building companies that compound positive value over time, rather than scaling prematurely and compounding negative value. Funding should primarily be used for experimentation and scaling proven business models, not for scaling unproven ideas, because it's easy to compound negative value if you're not paying attention to the right things.— Vanity metrics vs. intrinsic valueThe industry often focuses on vanity metrics like growth rates and valuations, rather than building long-term intrinsic value and durable businesses. The venture capital industry's incentive structures often encourage behavior that may not be in the best interest of building sustainable businesses. It's important to maintain a long-term perspective on building value, rather than getting caught up in short-term growth or fundraising cycles. In many tech businesses, there are often diseconomies of scale rather than economies of scale as companies grow.— Playing the game on your own termsCEOs and founders are ultimately responsible for making disciplined decisions about resource allocation and scaling. While entrepreneurs can't completely ignore the “game” of venture capital, they should focus on building value on their own terms rather than getting caught up in comparisons or unrealistic expectations.
Gabriel + Cliff: Gabriel Rucker, Executive Chef and Co-Owner, Le Pigeon and Canard Two-time James Beard Award winning Chef Gabriel Rucker is Executive Chef and Co-owner of Le Pigeon and Canard in Portland, Oregon. Over the years, his highly original, off the cuff creativity and recipe-free approach to cooking has gained him national acclaim. A native of Napa, California, when school no longer piqued his interest, Rucker moved to the kitchen. In 2003 he moved to Portland and landed a coveted job at Chef Vitaly Paley's home to Northwest cooking, Paley's Place. In June of 2006, Rucker opened Le Pigeon, which quickly went on to win The Oregonian's Restaurant of the Year. One of Portland's most respected and decorated chefs, Rucker has earned two James Beard awards for Rising Star Chef in 2011 and Best Chef Northwest in 2013. He has been named a Food & Wine Best New Chef and a recipient of StarChefs Mentor Award. Beyond the kitchen, Rucker has become a leading advocate within the restaurant industry for recovery, health and fitness. In 2019 he helped to open the Portland chapter of Ben's Friends, a restaurant industry recovery group. He also leads a weekly running and walking club @birddogrunclub. Follow Rucker on Instagram @ruckergabriel. Meet Worry Not!'s creator, Cliffton. Cliff's intentional mission in the development and implementation of Worry Not! is to craft menus that are far more inclusive, giving the option for everyone to enjoy the communal drinking & dining experience. Before moving to Portland in 2017 Cliff managed the Los Angeles mainstay, Wurstkuche. From there, he served as the General Manager at the iconic Baco Mercat under the guidance of James Beard nominated & Michelin Star awarded chef, Josef Cenento. He began his Portland industry journey as the General Manager of the legendary Pok Pok, and has proudly run the bar programs at both Jacqueline & Coopers Hall. He currently spends his working hours “putting things into cups” at Canard while heading the NA program at Le Pigeon. Cliff's alcohol-free journey began April 1st, 2023, initially as a “Sober April” to re-evaluate his relationship with alcohol. It quickly became clear that alcohol was no longer part of his life plan – the benefits of living alcohol free far outweighed the indulgence of imbibing. With products such as Wilderon, All the Bitters, and Joyus emerging in the market, Cliff envisions a future where ordering a NA modern classic will be commonplace. Listening in Columbus, Oh?

Show NotesIn Part 1, friends of the show John Nelson and Josh Parikh returned as guests and discussed “McGrewvianism”, which is the apologetic approach of partners Tim & Lydia McGrew. Their critiques of McGrewvianism centred largely in lack of engagement in the last 150 years of scholarship into the New Testament documents and they related this extensively to the McGrew's use of ‘Undesigned Coincidences' to establish the historical reliability of the NT narratives.Jonathan McLatchie, who we also consider a friend of the show, is in the McGrew camp and wrote a helpful response blog, which also concentrated on Undesigned Coincidences. In this episode we discuss his responses and we take a wider look at contradictions between texts as a potentially symmetrical opposite concept to Undesigned Coincidences. Links:We discussed ‘undesigned coincidences' with Jonathan McLatchie in our episode 29.

Shote notes: https://www.tamihackbarth.com/blog/episode-214 In this week's podcast, Maureen Paley of the Financial Autonomy for Women podcast and I got a chance to talk about all things money and self-care. Money is a touchy topic for a lot of women. Given our very recent history of being able to have credit in our own names, loans without a male co-signer, and the ability to purchase property to build generational wealth, it makes perfect sense that we struggle when it comes to money. This, coupled with the societal and cultural narratives about self-care being selfish, we've got a lot of things to talk about!

It was during this time that Lauren stumbled upon the incredible acoustics of the stairwell - now her recording studio away from home.

The sefer Emunat Itecha explains that the greatness of Avraham Avinu doing Akedat Yitzchak did not lie in the fact that he was willing to sacrifice his son for Hashem. He had already proved that he would even give up his own life for Hashem when he was thrown into the fires of Ur Kasdim. There, he wasn't even commanded to do it and that was at a time before he ever communicated with Hashem. The greatness in Akedat Yitzchak was like the Zohar says, that Hashem seemed so distant from Avraham at that time when he made the request. It didn't make any sense that Hashem would tell him to kill the child that He already told him would be his legacy in starting the Jewish Nation. Avraham's ability to put the question aside and follow Hashem with pure emunah is where his greatness lied. Our Rabbis have taught us that in the days before Mashiach , many people will have similar types of nisayonot . They have learned how merciful and loving Hashem is and how much He appreciates all their efforts in serving Him. Yet, they go through the most difficult hardships and it doesn't seem to make sense that this would happen to them after they have learned about how merciful Hashem is. They are doing their utmost to follow Torah and mitzvot, yet their difficulties in parnasa , or finding a shidduch , or being in good health, continue to persist. This, while people who are not observant seem to have everything going smoothly for them. It is such a contradiction in their minds. If these people will continue following Hashem wholeheartedly, with pure emunah, their rewards will be unimaginable. It was said in the name of the Arizal that the neshamot that will live in the generation before Mashiach will be from the same caliber as the neshamot of the Tana'im , like Rabbi Akiva, because only souls as elevated as those will be able to withstand the tests given at that time. A few months ago, our hearts were broken for the Paley family who lost two children, ages 5 and 7, in a terrorist attack in Yerushalayim . Two sweet, pure brothers who never tasted the taste of sin in their lives. It didn't make sense to anyone. But their mother heroically spoke with such emunah, telling everyone about the two gems that Hashem had given her to do a very specific job. And now, they went back to Him. Her words were reminiscent of the great Bruria, wife of Rabbi Meir, who experienced a similar tragedy, losing two sons suddenly at the same time. While Rabbi Meir was crying, Bruria reminded him that their children were not theirs, they were merely entrusted to them temporarily to help them fulfill the job that Hashem needed them to fulfill here. The Zohar HaKadosh writes, when the time comes for a neshama to descend into this world, Hashem calls for it and explains to it what its mission is. The Nishmat Chaim writes, the neshama is an ethereal form that is called a tzelem . It looks exactly like the person is going to look in his physical body in this world. The neshamot belong to Hashem and He sends each one of them to the parents that He knows are most suited to do the job that needs to be done with each specific neshama . Because raising children is such a difficult task, something that requires the parents' full attention day and night, Hashem gives each parent a natural, overwhelming love towards their children, which is what gives the parent the strength to do their jobs happily. If parents did not have this love, they would become disgusted with their lives, having to tend to their children's every single need all day and all night. Bruria understood all of this. She knew the children were not hers. She was just Hashem's messenger in raising them. She also knew that when her job was done with these neshamot , they would be able to go back to the real place of enjoyment, the place they naturally want to be in, near Hashem. And today, in the generation before Mashiach, we have people with the same lofty neshamot that are able to have such emunah and make a kiddush Hashem that the entire world is able to witness. The tests before Mashiach are difficult. Those who are able to continue serving Hashem despite the questions will be among the greatest of all time in the Next World.

It's 4PM eastern time on November 25th, 1948. Elgin Watches annual Thanksgiving Day special is on the air from NBC's KFI in Hollywood. Don Ameche is the emcee. Ken Carpenter is announcing. This November Radio ratings are robust. Eleven shows have ratings higher than twenty points, and Lux Radio Theatre's 33.2 is the most listened-to show on the air. But a major shift is about to happen just as the TV era launches. In 1948 comedian Jack Benny organized his activities into a corporation. At that time American individuals were taxed seventy-seven percent on all income over seventy thousand dollars. Benny's hope was to secure a deal with NBC for his company, so that he could be taxed under capital gains laws at 25%. NBC's parent company was the Radio Corporation of America. Their head, David Saroff, refused. Amos N' Andy were the first to secure such a deal. They jumped to CBS in October of 1948. Then Lew Wasserman and Taft Shreiber—President and VP of The Music Corporation of America, called head of CBS William Paley to see if he was interested in a similar deal for Jack Benny. In November, David Sarnoff got word and sent NBC president Niles Trammel to California with orders to keep Benny at NBC, but Sarnoff refused to be there. William Paley flew to LA to meet in person, agreeing for CBS to buy Benny's corporation for $2.26 Million. NBC responded by doubling their offer. However, Lew Wasserman again intervened, obtained the NBC contract, changed every mention of NBC to CBS, and re-offered the deal to Benny, who then signed it. Although Benny was signed, Paley next had to convince Benny's sponsor American Tobacco to make the move. He did so by guaranteeing that CBS would pay the cigarette giant three thousand dollars per week for every ratings point lost after the migration. Floored that Paley would offer this, all parties agreed immediately. On Thanksgiving in 1948, William Paley had plenty to be thankful for. While Jack Benny was appearing on NBC for this Elgin Special, CBS announced on their evening news that The Jack Benny Program would be jumping to CBS. When asked that evening by the United Press, Benny declined to comment. It touched off a firestorm between the two networks. NBC claimed any such deal was unlawful. David Sarnoff said “leadership built on a foundation of solid service can't be snatched overnight by a few high-priced comedians. Leadership is no laughing matter.” It was the biggest mistake of Sarnoff's career. Jack Benny left NBC at the end of the year. Edgar Bergen too. There was suddenly a glaring hole in NBC's Sunday night lineup. Between Benny and Bergen, NBC would need to replace roughly forty-five million listeners come January. In 1949, Burns and Allen, and Bing Crosby followed to CBS. NBC's desperation created major opportunities. Among those to benefit were a comedic duo who'd been selling out nightclubs all over the country. Their names were Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.

Nick is from Vermont, and he's working on a new TV series set here, so when he was in town I dragged him to a matinee of Marcel the Shell...the same movie theater where he used to clean the bathrooms. And then afterwards he let me ask him ten million questions about what it's like to work in the film industry. This show is a bit of both.
