The Best Of The Best - On The Air!

In this all-new edition of Attaboy Clarence, we're celebrating the return of summer with music from Frank Sinatra and more.

Special guest Lilly Ramin joins the show as we both discuss our top five favourite ever episodes of Golden Age radio entertainment.

And, let's hear one of the classics we discuss, courtesy of Academy Award Theater

Episode 87: Hoods In The Woods

In this week's episode, some belated thank yous, gorgeous music from Perry Como, Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly...

PLUS...

Reviews of three movies... 1947's 'When The Bough Breaks' (most definitely NOT a psychological thriller), 1948's 'Here Comes Trouble' (most definitely almost a David Lynch film), and perhaps Adam's new most favourite film ever, 1944's 'Timber Queen' starring Richard "Grumpy Russell "Russ" Evans" Arlen, Sheldon Leonard, and the best character names ever! Oh and the best fight ever! And the worst plan ever! And... you'll see...

Episode 22: What Did Danny Do?

In this week's episode, Adam jive-talks some relationship advice, tries to ascertain the exact type of coconut oil used in Fitch's Shampoo, throws out an entire collection of high-octane 1980's-style high-five-age, and lets you in on exactly which type of song gets him in the mood for cigarettes, as well as news of the Christmas Special, coming soon...

This week's reviews are MGM's experimental murder thriller 'Night Must Fall' from 1937, starring a very "oirish" Robert Montgomery, and 'They Drive By Night', a dark little British noir thriller from 1938, starring Ernest Thesiger as an impeccably-accented serial killer.

This weeks radio offering is from "Radio's Outstanding Theatre Of Thrills"
