Rocking Chair Radio

Gildy shows up to the office on his first day and finds that the bureaucracy runs the show. He isn't necessary at all. He also hasn't paid his water bill. As an added bonus, Leroy is arrested for skinny dipping (and probably peeing) in the town's drinking water.

Holmes lets nature take its course as the circus people murder a couple of their own. It seems reasonable to slyly look in both directions and walk away whistling as the bodies pile up. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Jack and the gang plan a Romeo and Juliet parody but, for a reason completely unfathomable to me, the sponsor is against it and they plan a minstrel show instead. No kidding.  rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Holmes solves another poisoning case. I sometimes wish the English could have been a little more imaginative with their murders. Poisoning can become so repetitive. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Winter comes early and Gildy races Judge Hooker to warm up the town flirt. Gildy brings coal, which is smart, but Judge Hooker brings alcohol.

Jim decides to be nice to his family and makes all sorts of promises only to break them later when he has the opportunity to go hunting with the guys. Typical. Be honest and admit it was the bourbon talking, Jim. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

End of summer blowout--All Jack Benny episodes must go! Say goodbye to the 1935-36 season and hello to 1936-37. New bandleader sweetens the kitty. If you don't laugh at least once, you should get on some new medication. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!
