58:38 – Reviving old theme songs, having empathy for people (but it doesn’t always excuse stuff!), the Indonesian forest fire haze in Singapore and Malaysia, needing more nice people rather than successful people, self preservation, Stephen Colbert’s moving interview of Joe Biden, getting away from “left-right wing” labels, personas, children raising parents, power rendering people douchebags, hippies, remuneration irrespective of jobs, using cameraphones as cameras (iPhone 6s+, Nokia Lumia), traditional cameras (Nikon D60, FinePix S9600, X-T1, X-100s), podcast elitism, car bubbles, and impromptu birds.

(30:31) Yet another edition of Saved From Oblivion!  I try and bring you the best – or most unusual – old radio I can find and present it to you in an efficient way.

In this episode of Suspense (1957), a new prisoner gets into a game of dominoes, where the stakes are peanut brittle candy.  It may sound sound like a lot of innocent fun, but trust me, it isn’t.

(26:08) The script, “A Shipment of Mute Fate”, was so well-received by audiences that it ran several times on the popular Escape series and a few times on it’s contemporary series, Suspense. This particular episode stars Jack Webb in one of his finest and most-exciting radio performances; this one is from 1947.
