    Hello digesters,

    I am researching the history of the United Way. During the
    old time radio era, the United Way was known as the Community Chest (Red
    Feather campaign) and I'm trying to track down a a syndicated series from 1946
    called "The Adventures of the Red Feather Man". OTR researchers group and
    Goldin list about a dozen shows in existence. Does anyone know where I can
    obtain copies?

    Cheers,

    Ivan

    You are watching an old movie or TV show (1940s-70s) and you point out the
    actors to your spouse by identifying the radio shows they starred in.

    Your car's license plate says JK BNY 39.

    Your dog was named Maxwell, and you have two cats named Remley and Riley.

    And you daughter has a cat named Sadie (as in Marks).

    All of these are true for [removed]

    ...your smart phone is filled with episodes of Gunsmoke.

    ...you have a large amount of shelf space dedicated to radio transcriptions.

    ...you feel justified to see on TV that the Lone Ranger movie fell far
    short of its anticipated box office when it failed to break $30 million
    on opening weekend. Hopefully this means they won't try this again.

    My pal Michael Leannah posted::

>     You know you're really a lover of Old Time Radio [removed]

    to which I add:

    -- you actually pay money  to see badly reviewed movie versions of the
    Shadow, the Green Hornet, and the Lone Ranger just because of their OTR
    connections even though you know you'll be disappointed;
    -- you have BearManor Media's website added to your "Favorites";
    -- you acquire an OTR-themed book and the first thing you do is peruse the
    Acknowledgments and Bibliography just to see how many people from the hobby
    you actually know;
    -- you refer to arguing couples you know as "the Bickersons";
    -- your wallet contains a folded-up piece of paper with "The Lone Ranger's
    Creed" thereupon;
    -- the only reason you buy now-marginalized, rarely advertised, second-tier
    brands like Barbasol, Oxydol, and Horlick's is because of their OTR pedigree;
    -- you can't listen to a "Shadow Traffic" report without thinking of Lamont
    Cranston;
    -- you actually use outdated OTR-era  pronunciations such as "PROH-tee-in"
    (protein), "AV-ee-ay-tor" (aviator),  a "hard G" for "Los Angeles,"  and
    "MUR-seh-deez"  (rather than her post-Oscar win version, "mur- SAY-deez") for
    "Mercedes McCambridge";
    -- you use 1930s trade paper terms like "ether" to refer to radio;
    -- you need to collect yourself upon hearing the names "Bob and Ray" and
    realize that "Elliott and Goulding" are being referred to and not the
    venerable OTR convention S-FX team of "Robert Mott and Ray Erlenborn";
    -- you spell the word "television" as "t--------n" replete with the
    Victorian-era styled dashes as if it were a dirty word;
    -- you cannot watch a "Gunsmoke" or "Dragnet" rerun without thinking "the
    radio version was better!";
    -- you're actually getting excited about the upcoming 75th anniversary of
    "WOTW";
    -- you cannot envision that there will not be an OTR-themed convention
    happening near Newark Airport this October.

    Yours in 1930s trade paper terms,

    Derek Tague

    Subject:  Lone Ranger Movie

    Having read all the comments on the new Lone Ranger movie, I thought I'd
    share an item I heard on an NPR or PRI program last week regarding the
    film industry.  What drives current movies is the fact that more money
    is made from showing the movies in China and Russia than in the US.
    Movie studios make movies which they think will appeal to those
    audiences. This means large, spectacular visual effects and little or no
    plot nuances.  Or, as a friend of mine commented on the latest Star Trek
    movies, they took out all the intellectual drama that was the hallmark
    of Star Trek and replaced it with a lot of explosions.

    Unfortunately, that's the film industry now, and most films conform.
