#3 - What did you get for Christmas? DVDs!

I start out on my own for the first few minutes and talk about my Marx Brothers and Three Stooges 75th Anniversary DVD sets. When Angie joins, she talks about getting ALF which included a Chaplin inspired episode (after the show I researched it, "Like an Old Time Movie", aired April 17, 1989, a day after Chaplin's 100th birthday!), a set of Buster Keaton DVDs, and the Marx Brothers "A Night at the Opera", and Chaplin's "The Circus" and "Modern Times" (she also has a threaded discussion about it at the forums). We give reviews for them and a couple others.

As always, you can join the gang at the forums at www.comedyclassics.org .. (yeah, I know, I forgot to mention the address again on the show).

I'll post when the next show is going to be... it might just well be on Saturday night afterall, but will have to check...

#2 - Chaplin and a good chunk of Old Time Radio chatter

Download episode #2 here

We had another great episode. Angie joined again, and a new person, Kain, who runs his own podcast Old Tyme Radio also at Talkshoe. Another regular from the forums, HTTK, joined in but didn't realize that the show started 9pm Eastern rather than Central. Hope you can make it next time HTTK!

We mention the 29th anniversary of Charlie Chaplin's death that comes up on Christmas. And we spent most of the show talking about old time radio, not only the comedies but also some others like Orson Welles' classic War of the Worlds, and a few others.

You can either download this week's episode from this page, or our Talkshoe page, where you can also listen streaming feed.

Next episode will be next Friday, Dec 29, 9pm EST/8 CST/7 MDT/6 PDT. You can use this time zone converter.

Next show is going to be...

Our next live episode is going to be this Friday, 12/22/06 at 9pm Eastern, is everything works out with my work.

No weekly day is set yet for an evening show, but I'll post it when that's worked out :).

Please give some feedback in the podcast's forum when you are interested on having the show done during the day on weekdays (except Wednesdays) since I am usually available during the daytime hours.
