Rocking Chair Radio

Gildy has the hots for a woman, and not just any woman, Judge Hooker's sister. (P.S. she's a hooker-kinda like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman). rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!  

Valentine's Day is here and Jim has forgotten all about it. Can the Anderson's salvage a little family happiness in 29 minutes or less? Of course they can. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio (139 times)! Cheers!

Jack and the gang are up to their usual hijinks. Mary phones her mother and Jack tests out a car. Take a moment out of your day to appreciate your surroundings. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio and the Golden Age of being alive. Cheers!

A woman comes to Holmes believing her husband is trying to poison her. Watson diagnoses her with a bad case of the farts. There is a reason why he is history's greatest sidekick, and it likely has to do with flatulence.  rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

This special episode of The Great Gildersleeve revolves around a chair. Yes, a chair. Strap yourself into your favorite La-Z-Boy and prepare to guffaw. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Jim tries to remember some guy's name--but can't. So, he takes out his frustration on those nearest and dearest to him. Sorry, kids. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Jack and the gang poke a little fun at the Appalachian Mountain folks. Everyone's a winner here because nobody cares about those people. (Am I being sarcastic or not?) rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Holmes solves a murder that seems pretty irrelevant to the events of the day. C'mon Meiser, you can do better than this. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Gildy goes blackface in this episode and talks some Uncle Remus for us. I think this was supposed to be funny back in 1942. Maybe not so funny these days. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! (minus the blatant racism) Cheers!

Jim lands a nice chunky inheritance from a long lost uncle that will change everything for the Andersons. Or will it change everything? rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Jack and the gang broadcast from Boston and dramatize the Tea Party. Hah hah. As an added treat, I throw in a little ditty from Kenny at the end from the week before. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Holmes and Watson search for a missing rich girl. Watson blunders and earns a juicy black eye from a mysterious stranger. Way to go, doc. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Goldenest of the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Gildy has an allergy and gets his wide body stuck in a treehouse door. The End! rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Margaret tries to hitch her cousin's horse to a wagon, if you know what I mean. Jim doesn't think it's such a great idea. I can get behind Jim on this one. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Jack and the gang delight us with puns and one-liners from the great state of Cleveland. Didn't their river catch on fire once? rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Bold Venture was a 1951-52 radio production from Bogart and Bacall while they popped out a couple of babies. Slate and Sailor cross paths with ne'er-do-wells and undesirables (and some desirables, too) in a steamy, tropical setting. What else could we ask for? rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio with an extra shot of testosterone! Cheers!

Holmes cracks a case in which a damsel is the grand prize in a high-stakes wager. That's the exact way I acquired my wife. Ah, the good old days. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Hooker gives Gildy a tube for his tire and Gildy is overjoyed. He plans a dinner and the craziness ensues. We also find out that there is a little problem with organized crime in the town. Who knew? rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

The Anderson family flirts with the Springfield social elite, if only briefly, in the hopes of marrying off their daughter to a Van Hetzen-Fussen (or something like that). Money can't buy you love--but it can buy you an expensive interior decorator. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!

Jack and the gang pun it up but the real highlight of this has to be Kenny's inspired pipes. Never mind the blandness of the host, he doesn't know it yet, but he's on his way out the door. rockingchairradio@gmail.com Enjoy the Golden Age of Old Time Radio! Cheers!
