Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey everybody. Your
00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:07.510
old pal Tom here or maybe I should say
00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:10.629
hello Americans. This is Tom Gully.
00:00:10.639 --> 00:00:14.230
Prepare for news.
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:16.550
Let me tell you about Paul Harvey. Paul
00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:20.070
Harvey was a ubiquitous part of radio
00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:24.790
for 1 billion years. He was famous for a
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:27.670
lot of things. He coined some terms that
00:00:27.680 --> 00:00:31.669
you might not know he came up with, but
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:35.590
he was famous for. And that's the rest
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:37.750
of the story.
00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:41.510
And page two,
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:43.830
good day.
00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:46.150
Paul Harvey was on a radio station I
00:00:46.160 --> 00:00:49.990
worked on in Anderson, Indiana that we
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:53.270
had talk on all day. So, we got the rest
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:55.750
of the story. We got his regular news
00:00:55.760 --> 00:00:57.350
and
00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:00.709
even just a few years ago they used one
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.229
of his stories in a Super Bowl
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:07.429
commercial. I'll tell you all about Paul
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:09.510
Harvey, how he came to be, who his
00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:12.950
influences were, and some of the people
00:01:12.960 --> 00:01:17.270
he rubbed elbows with.
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:20.550
And I'm, you know, having a little
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:23.590
trouble coming up with uh
00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:26.390
my explanation, as I always do, that AI
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:28.070
doesn't want us to play a three minute
00:01:28.080 --> 00:01:31.270
song or, you know, four minutes as an
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:33.270
intro, even though we have all these
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:35.670
great custom intro songs from our
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:38.230
musical director, Leon Kennedy. They
00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:40.950
want 30 seconds.
00:01:40.960 --> 00:01:42.789
A minute and a half is where we've
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:44.950
agreed to meet in the middle. I often
00:01:44.960 --> 00:01:47.030
wonder what would Paul Harvey have to
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:51.030
say about AI. I don't think he'd like
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:54.149
it. Anyway, we'll be back in 90 seconds
00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:58.069
and then we'll tell you
00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:00.389
about Paul Harvey,
00:02:00.399 --> 00:02:20.630
page two.
00:02:20.640 --> 00:02:24.390
There's a room with a restless air.
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:27.990
Voices rising everywhere.
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:31.270
Most fall wide or miss their mark till
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:35.589
one cuts through and stops the spark. No
00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:39.589
long road, no winding tail, just the
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:42.630
right thoughts set to sail. The room
00:02:42.640 --> 00:02:46.790
goes still for half a beat. Then the
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.990
band comes in complete.
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.030
>> That's the point, my pal. You saw it
00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:53.589
land
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:57.350
>> right in time with a swing of the band.
00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:00.390
>> That's the point, my dear. You saw it,
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:00.949
too.
00:03:00.959 --> 00:03:04.630
>> Tom Gully. Yeah, he's pointing at you.
00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:08.149
That's the point, my pal. You saw it.
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:11.910
>> Right in time with a swing of a band.
00:03:11.920 --> 00:03:14.949
>> That's the point, my dear. You saw it,
00:03:14.959 --> 00:03:15.589
too.
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.110
>> Tom Gully. Yeah, he's pointing at you.
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:22.790
Some press hard just to be heard.
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:27.110
Dressing noise up into words. But Mr.
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:31.830
Gully lifts a hand and the room falls in
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:33.910
with a band.
00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:38.070
No flourish, nothing grand, just a
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:47.990
thought.
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:49.990
>> Hey everybody, what's going on? What's
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:51.589
hot? What's hip? What's happening?
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.070
What's shaking? Let me tell you about
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:56.309
Paul Harvey.
00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:59.110
Paul Harvey was on the radio every
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:02.229
single day. He was on several times a
00:04:02.239 --> 00:04:04.710
day. He was the absolutely
00:04:04.720 --> 00:04:07.270
quintessential broadcaster. He started
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:11.270
off early back in the 30s and the 40s
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:15.750
and then exploded to at one time being
00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:20.310
on over 1300 radio stations in the
00:04:20.320 --> 00:04:24.710
United States and uh known for his
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:28.710
homespun views on things, a very very
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:33.030
patriotic man. Uh, he did however have
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.390
some associations that, you know, maybe
00:04:36.400 --> 00:04:38.629
later he might have regretted, but we're
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:40.469

00:05:45.919 --> 00:05:48.390
you, Terry. The chef is here. He said he
00:05:48.400 --> 00:05:49.909
put his time in at work there at
00:05:49.919 --> 00:05:51.430
Geraldine Supper Club and Lounge in
00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:52.870
beautiful downtown Indianapolis just off
00:05:52.880 --> 00:05:54.870
Fountain Square on English Avenue. and
00:05:54.880 --> 00:05:57.430
he is now taking a well- earned break
00:05:57.440 --> 00:06:01.590
and resting on the couch.
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:05.029
Can you dig it? All right, let me tell
00:06:05.039 --> 00:06:09.830
you about Paul Harvey.
00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:12.469
Paul Harvey is not really Paul Harvey's
00:06:12.479 --> 00:06:16.309
name. No, Paul Harvey was christened in
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:18.950
September of 1918
00:06:18.960 --> 00:06:22.309
as Paul Harvey aren't.
00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:26.070
But as is the custom in radio from Maine
00:06:26.080 --> 00:06:29.990
to California, Paul adopted his middle
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:32.629
name as his last name being easier to
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:36.790
pronounce and more palatable to the ear.
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:39.590
I'm sorry I just occasionally I'll
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:42.950
ripped into that. Uh
00:06:42.960 --> 00:06:46.230
Paul worked for ABC News Radio, don't
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:50.550
you know? For quite a while. Uh there we
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:54.870
go. ABC News Radio and he broadcast news
00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:57.189
and comment.
00:06:57.199 --> 00:06:58.710
That was the name of the program,
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:01.990
mornings and middays on weekdays and
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:04.629
noon on Saturdays. So he worked six days
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:08.790
a week. And he also did his famous the
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:15.029
rest of the story segments from 1951
00:07:15.039 --> 00:07:17.430
to 2008.
00:07:17.440 --> 00:07:20.790
over 50 years. His program reached as
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.230
many as 24 million people per week. Paul
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.309
Harvey News was carried, as I mentioned,
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:30.070
on 1350 commercial radio stations and
00:07:30.080 --> 00:07:32.950
also on 400
00:07:32.960 --> 00:07:38.550
Armed Forces Network stations
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.909
and in 300 newspapers. So, he was a
00:07:41.919 --> 00:07:45.350
dude. Okay. He was a dude. Paul Harvey
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:47.909
was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma back there
00:07:47.919 --> 00:07:50.230
in 1918.
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:55.749
And uh he he was the son of a policeman
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:59.749
who was killed by robbers in 1921. So at
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.629
the age of three years old, he actually
00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:06.230
made radio receivers as a young boy.
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:09.430
Back in those days, there were kits that
00:08:09.440 --> 00:08:12.629
you could use to construct your own
00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:15.510
radios. a lot of people did it. Uh, and
00:08:15.520 --> 00:08:19.189
he was one of those people. He attended
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:23.510
Tulsa Central High School there in
00:08:23.520 --> 00:08:26.390
Tulsa. And, uh, he did have a classmate
00:08:26.400 --> 00:08:30.070
of note. He was two years ahead of a
00:08:30.080 --> 00:08:33.269
gentleman by the name of Tony Randall.
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.990
Yes.
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:38.070
He had a teacher named Isabelle Ronin
00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:40.709
who was very impressed by Paul Harvey's
00:08:40.719 --> 00:08:41.670
voice.
00:08:41.680 --> 00:08:43.990
on her recommendation. He started
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:48.790
working at KVO
00:08:48.800 --> 00:08:54.230
in Tulsa in 19 and 33.
00:08:54.240 --> 00:09:00.070
So he was, you know, 18, 28, is 10 and
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:04.389
like 15 years old, 14 actually. Uh
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.430
helping to clean up. He, you know,
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:09.750
started working there just cleaning up.
00:09:09.760 --> 00:09:11.990
But he was eventually allowed to fill in
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:15.190
on the air by reading commercials and
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:18.389
the news. Now he continued working at
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.430
KVO while he attended the University of
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:24.870
Tulsa first as an announcer and then he
00:09:24.880 --> 00:09:27.509
actually became the program director for
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.150
the radio station. He spent three years
00:09:30.160 --> 00:09:35.190
as a station manager at KFBI
00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:38.790
uh in uh Witchah, Kansas.
00:09:38.800 --> 00:09:41.350
And uh from there he moved on to a
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:45.509
newscasting job at KOMA in Oklahoma City
00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:50.150
and then to KXOX
00:09:50.160 --> 00:09:55.670
in St. Louis in 1938 at the age of 20.
00:09:55.680 --> 00:09:58.150
Now I should mention in for a long time
00:09:58.160 --> 00:10:02.389
in the field of radio it was very common
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:05.030
for people to move all over the country
00:10:05.040 --> 00:10:08.070
for jobs at various radio stations in
00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:12.150
order to move up the ladder. Uh at at
00:10:12.160 --> 00:10:15.030
KXOX he was the director of special
00:10:15.040 --> 00:10:19.990
events and a roving reporter for KXOX.
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.870
Paul Harvey.
00:10:22.880 --> 00:10:26.470
Harvey then moved to Hawaii to cover the
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:30.230
US Navy as it concentrated its fleet in
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:33.509
the Pacific after the Japanese attack on
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.030
Pearl Harbor. He eventually did enlist
00:10:37.040 --> 00:10:40.389
in the US Army Air Force, but only
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.190
served from December of 1943 to March of
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:44.790
1944
00:10:44.800 --> 00:10:47.590
due to a medical discharge.
00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:51.910
He then moved to Chicago. Yes. Where he
00:10:51.920 --> 00:10:54.630
began broadcasting from the ABC
00:10:54.640 --> 00:10:58.069
affiliate WNR
00:10:58.079 --> 00:11:00.949
in Chicago.
00:11:00.959 --> 00:11:04.630
In 1945, he began hosting a post-war
00:11:04.640 --> 00:11:07.829
employment program called Jobs for G.I.
00:11:07.839 --> 00:11:13.509
Joe on WNR. and he added the rest of the
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:17.269
story as a tagline to in-depth feature
00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:21.030
stories that began in 1946.
00:11:21.040 --> 00:11:24.790
One of his regular topics was lacks
00:11:24.800 --> 00:11:26.949
security
00:11:26.959 --> 00:11:29.590
and particularly lacks security for the
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:32.389
military installations particularly at
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:35.829
Argon National Laboratory.
00:11:35.839 --> 00:11:37.829
Sorry audio podcast listeners. There's
00:11:37.839 --> 00:11:40.470
Paul Harvey and his wife of many many
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:43.269
years who he referred to as Angel.
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:46.310
Anyway, one of his uh problems was that
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:48.710
the Argon National Laboratory he didn't
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:51.670
think had good enough security. It was a
00:11:51.680 --> 00:11:54.310
nuclear research facility about 20 miles
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:57.509
outside Chicago. And to demonstrate his
00:11:57.519 --> 00:11:59.269
concern,
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:02.550
just after midnight, just after midnight
00:12:02.560 --> 00:12:05.910
on February 6th, 1951, he entered the
00:12:05.920 --> 00:12:08.949
grounds by scaling a fence and was
00:12:08.959 --> 00:12:13.509
quickly apprehended by security guards.
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:16.069
In 2010, the Washington Post, having
00:12:16.079 --> 00:12:21.990
obtained 1,400 pages of the FBI file on
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:25.269
Paul Harvey, described it as an act of
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.910
participatory journalism.
00:12:27.920 --> 00:12:30.470
Harvey's escapade promoted the U
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:32.949
prompted, excuse me, the US attorney for
00:12:32.959 --> 00:12:35.750
Illinois to impanel a grand jury to
00:12:35.760 --> 00:12:40.150
consider it an espionage indictment.
00:12:40.160 --> 00:12:42.310
Harvey went on the air to suggest he was
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:44.870
being set up and the grand jury
00:12:44.880 --> 00:12:49.110
subsequently declined to indict him. Um
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:52.629
maybe at the end of the show I will read
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.470
a much longer account of what happened.
00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.990
He was not being set up. No, no, no, no,
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:01.750
no.
00:13:01.760 --> 00:13:05.110
So Paul Harvey had done sporadic work
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:07.590
from Chicago for ABC radio in the late
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:12.710
40s and early 50s and had just completed
00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:16.150
two weeks as the guest host for veteran
00:13:16.160 --> 00:13:21.509
commentator HR Buckage in his daily 11
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:23.590
a.m. news roundup. Now, when Bockage
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:26.470
returned from his early spring vacation,
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.030
ABC fired him and put Harvey in his
00:13:31.040 --> 00:13:33.910
place. Uh, good friend of Paul Harvey's,
00:13:33.920 --> 00:13:36.069
Frank Baker was a key figure in helping
00:13:36.079 --> 00:13:38.470
negotiate a contract with ABC and Baker
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:41.670
was no stranger to Chicago's radio
00:13:41.680 --> 00:13:43.670
scene.
00:13:43.680 --> 00:13:45.750
Frank Baker and Paul were close friends
00:13:45.760 --> 00:13:48.069
for the rest of their lives. On April
00:13:48.079 --> 00:13:52.150
Fool's Day, on the aspicious occasion of
00:13:52.160 --> 00:13:55.110
April Fool's Day, 1951, the ABC radio
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:58.550
network debuted Paul Harvey News and
00:13:58.560 --> 00:14:02.629
Comment. A noon time slot on weekdays.
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:05.590
His network television debut began on
00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:08.870
November 16th, 1952 when he began a
00:14:08.880 --> 00:14:10.310
15-minute newscast for the
00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:13.030
aforementioned ABC.
00:14:13.040 --> 00:14:15.509
The capricciously styled program
00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:21.670
originated at WNR TV in
00:14:21.680 --> 00:14:24.710
Chicago.
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:26.949
Later, Paul Harvey began to host a
00:14:26.959 --> 00:14:30.310
separate program called The Rest of the
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:32.470
Story in which he provided backstories
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:36.069
behind famous people and events. The
00:14:36.079 --> 00:14:38.310
Rest of the Story premiered on May 10th,
00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:41.910
1976 on ABC radio. Now, this had been a
00:14:41.920 --> 00:14:44.069
part of his regular news and comment
00:14:44.079 --> 00:14:47.910
show, but they knew it was so popular
00:14:47.920 --> 00:14:52.230
they made it a separate segment.
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:55.030
Series quickly grew to six broadcast a
00:14:55.040 --> 00:14:57.829
week and continued until his death in
00:14:57.839 --> 00:14:59.910
2009.
00:14:59.920 --> 00:15:03.269
It was written and produced by his son
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:05.910
Paul Harvey Jr. Oh, there's the guys at
00:15:05.920 --> 00:15:09.269
WNR TV. God, that's such an old TV
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:12.069
picture. Sorry audio podcast listeners.
00:15:12.079 --> 00:15:15.269
Um the rest of the story was written and
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:18.310
produced by his son Paul Harvey Jr. from
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:21.910
its outset and for the entire 33 years
00:15:21.920 --> 00:15:25.269
it was on the air. Harvey and his radio
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:28.230
network said that some
00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:31.269
of the stories in that
00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.430
particular show were
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.910
found through research and other forms
00:15:37.920 --> 00:15:39.670
of information. But they claimed that
00:15:39.680 --> 00:15:42.710
absolutely every single one of them was
00:15:42.720 --> 00:15:45.269
completely true.
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:47.829
That however was
00:15:47.839 --> 00:15:51.350
contested by some critics and historians
00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:54.629
including urban legend expert
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.949
Yan Harold Brunard.
00:15:58.959 --> 00:16:01.829
In November of 2000, Paul Harvey signed
00:16:01.839 --> 00:16:04.389
a 10-year
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:06.230
$100
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:09.350
million contract with ABC radio
00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:11.990
networks. A few months later, after
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:14.310
damaging his vocal cords, he went off
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:18.629
the air for a little less than a year.
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:21.509
His success with sponsors
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:24.790
was due to his seamless
00:16:24.800 --> 00:16:28.550
inclusion of them into his program. So
00:16:28.560 --> 00:16:31.189
he'd be doing the news and he would say,
00:16:31.199 --> 00:16:33.670
"I've got a story of success for you.
00:16:33.680 --> 00:16:37.670
Service master, it means service to your
00:16:37.680 --> 00:16:40.470
master." And the tale is quite
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:42.550
extraordinary and then he would just go
00:16:42.560 --> 00:16:44.629
into a commercial for that particular
00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:48.150
client. Uh he explained his relationship
00:16:48.160 --> 00:16:50.870
with his sponsors.
00:16:50.880 --> 00:16:53.590
I am fiercely loyal to those willing to
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:57.990
put money where my mouth is. That was
00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:00.710
Paul Harvey. I'll tell you about a few
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:02.949
of the fill-in hosts for Paul Harvey
00:17:02.959 --> 00:17:04.630
here in just a second. Let's see what's
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:07.029
going on in our live interactive YouTube
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:09.590
chat room. Kendo FSU says, "Hello
00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:12.150
everyone. Good to see you again, sir."
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:14.230
The chef says, "I remember many times
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:15.829
that we would listen to it in the car
00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:18.150
and my mom would sit in the driveway and
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:21.270
wait till the end of the show." That's
00:17:21.280 --> 00:17:23.189
that's how
00:17:23.199 --> 00:17:26.390
riveting Paul Harvey was. He would make
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.990
anything sound exciting and important.
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:31.830
And we'll get to some of that in just a
00:17:31.840 --> 00:17:35.110
second. People saying hi. Dupit Dupit

00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:05.909
and movies, substituted regularly for
00:18:05.919 --> 00:18:09.750
Paul Harvey from 2006 to 2007.
00:18:09.760 --> 00:18:13.190
Other substitutes included, yes, Mitt

and, uh, yes, Scott Shannon.
00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:27.190
Uh, many others. Let me read that full
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:31.190
list. Here's Scott Shannon, famous New
00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:34.310
York disc jockey. Uh, his son Paul
00:18:34.320 --> 00:18:36.950
Harvey Jr. did it. Paul W. Smith, Gil
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:41.510
Gross, Ron Chapman from Dallas, Texas,
00:18:41.520 --> 00:18:45.590

00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:51.430
and Tony Snow, who used to be on the Fox
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:53.270
network.
00:18:53.280 --> 00:18:56.230
3 weeks after Paul Harvey's death, the
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.510
News and Comment franchise was
00:18:59.520 --> 00:19:02.630
cancelled.
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:04.710
Paul Harvey did not host the show
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:07.510
full-time after April of 2008 when he
00:19:07.520 --> 00:19:10.150
came down with pneumonia shortly after
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:12.150
his recovery.
00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:15.909
His wife died on May 3rd, which caused
00:19:15.919 --> 00:19:18.470
him to prolong his time away from
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:20.710
broadcasting.
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:22.950
He voiced commercials and new episodes
00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.710
of the rest of the story and news and
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:28.710
comment during middays a few times a
00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:30.470
week with his son doing the morning
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:32.789
version.
00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:35.510
Privately, Paul Harvey was an avid pilot
00:19:35.520 --> 00:19:38.870
who served in the US Army Air Corps. He
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:41.110
was an aircraft owners and pilots
00:19:41.120 --> 00:19:43.590
association member for more than 50
00:19:43.600 --> 00:19:45.430
years and would occasionally talk about
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:47.350
flying to his radio audience. He was
00:19:47.360 --> 00:19:50.310
also a member of the experimental
00:19:50.320 --> 00:19:53.510
aircraft association and was frequently
00:19:53.520 --> 00:19:57.990
seen at their big big big
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:01.590
gathering in Ashkos, Wisconsin.
00:20:01.600 --> 00:20:03.590
He was responsible for funding the Paul
00:20:03.600 --> 00:20:07.830
Harvey audio video center at the
00:20:07.840 --> 00:20:09.350
EAA's
00:20:09.360 --> 00:20:12.950
headquarters in Oscar. He was also an
00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:14.630
early investor in an aircraft
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:17.029
manufacturing company, Sir Cirrus
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:18.710
Aircraft.
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:21.909
Their story will make you sore. Anyway,
00:20:21.919 --> 00:20:24.950
based in Duth, Minnesota.
00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:28.870
And according to the AOPA pilot
00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:31.990
magazine, contributing editor Barry
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:36.549
Schiff, Paul Harvey coined the term
00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:40.710
skyjack instead of hijack.
00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:43.590
Now, probably the most
00:20:43.600 --> 00:20:47.270
attractive thing, the irresistible thing
00:20:47.280 --> 00:20:51.110
about Paul Harvey was his persona on the
00:20:51.120 --> 00:20:53.270
air. Didn't really matter what he was
00:20:53.280 --> 00:20:56.870
talking about. He was magnetic.
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.230
Doo doomed is on the radio till 2009.
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:03.190
Did I hear that right? Well, yes. And
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:06.950
not only did he start in radio back in
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:12.710
1933,
00:21:12.720 --> 00:21:17.750
his own show ran from 1951 till 2009. He
00:21:17.760 --> 00:21:19.590
did it right up till the very end, which
00:21:19.600 --> 00:21:24.950
you might might expect from Paul Harvey.
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:26.870
Paul Harvey's on air persona was
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:29.990
influenced by sports cer Bill Stern.
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:31.750
There's Paul Harvey in the early days.
00:21:31.760 --> 00:21:33.990
Look at that guy talking to a Rotary
00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:37.350
club or something. Um, where's Bill
00:21:37.360 --> 00:21:39.669
Stern? I had Bill Stern in here. Where's
00:21:39.679 --> 00:21:43.190
Bill Stern? There's Bill Stern. Uh, Bill
00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:46.230
Stern influenced him um as far as his on
00:21:46.240 --> 00:21:49.430
air persona and delivery, as did Walter
00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:53.110
Winchell, who we've done a show on. In
00:21:53.120 --> 00:21:55.190
the 1940s,
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:57.750
Bill Stern's show, The Colgate Sports
00:21:57.760 --> 00:22:00.710
Reel and Newsre Programs, used many of
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:02.630
the techniques that Paul Harvey would
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:06.470
later employ. In that particular show
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:08.630
would use the phrase real two, real
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:13.430
three. And so Paul Harvey would do page
00:22:13.440 --> 00:22:15.190
two.
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:16.549
A lot of people thought he was just
00:22:16.559 --> 00:22:18.789
reading that off of the the script. No,
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:21.669
it was an actual uh euphemism he had
00:22:21.679 --> 00:22:24.470
picked up and crafted for himself. And
00:22:24.480 --> 00:22:27.190
of course, Paul Harvey was known for the
00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:29.270
catchphrases that he used at the
00:22:29.280 --> 00:22:32.149
beginning of his programs, like, "Hello
00:22:32.159 --> 00:22:35.430
Americans, this is Paul Harvey. Stand by
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:37.830
for news."
00:22:37.840 --> 00:22:41.430
And he always ended with Paul Harvey,
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.029
good day. Or sometimes it would be Paul
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:49.190
Harvey, good night.
00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:53.029
A story might be referred to as this
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:57.029
day's news of most lasting significance.
00:22:57.039 --> 00:22:58.870
The end of a report about someone who
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:01.190
had done something ridiculous or
00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:03.270
offensive.
00:23:03.280 --> 00:23:07.029
He would always say he would want us to
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:10.470
mention his name followed by st a lot of
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:12.149
silence and then he'd start the next
00:23:12.159 --> 00:23:14.950
item. Um,
00:23:14.960 --> 00:23:17.110
the last item of a broadcast, which was
00:23:17.120 --> 00:23:20.710
usually a funny story, would usually be
00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:24.070
introduced with, "And now from the for
00:23:24.080 --> 00:23:26.789
what it's worth," department.
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:29.990
Other phrases made famous by Paul Harvey
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.830
include, "Here's a strange," and then it
00:23:33.840 --> 00:23:37.350
would be some weird story. Uh he also is
00:23:37.360 --> 00:23:40.149
credited with popularizing the terms
00:23:40.159 --> 00:23:41.750
regonomics
00:23:41.760 --> 00:23:44.230
and gueststimate.
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:49.110
He he liked to play with words a lot.
00:23:49.120 --> 00:23:53.750
In addition to the inquiry gosh dang it
00:23:53.760 --> 00:23:58.230
I have messed up these slides a bit. Uh
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:02.470
of whether those rest of the story tales
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:04.549
are true.
00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:09.190
Paul Harvey's trademark um ability
00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:11.510
to
00:24:11.520 --> 00:24:13.590
ingrain
00:24:13.600 --> 00:24:17.669
the sponsors into his show drew a lot of
00:24:17.679 --> 00:24:20.149
scrutiny and a lot of criticism. The
00:24:20.159 --> 00:24:21.830
there's a lot of people particularly at
00:24:21.840 --> 00:24:23.590
that time that wanted the commercial
00:24:23.600 --> 00:24:28.230
segment to be clearly delineiated from
00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:31.190
the actual program content. And Paul
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:33.909
Harvey didn't believe that. He he wanted
00:24:33.919 --> 00:24:38.549
to incorporate those sponsors into his
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:43.269
show. Um, and he did it so incredibly
00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:45.430
well. By the way, do me a favor. Like,
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:48.470
share, subscribe, retweet, notification
00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:51.510
bell, all of those absolutely free
00:24:51.520 --> 00:24:53.909
things you can do for the Tom Gully
00:24:53.919 --> 00:24:58.870
Show. They only cost you a click.
00:24:58.880 --> 00:25:02.950
Uh, I can remember when I was working at
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:04.870
WHBU,
00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:07.190
uh, persontoperson radio in Anderson,
00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:11.430
Indiana. Uh, I worked from 8 in the
00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:15.190
morning till 6:00 at night. And the
00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:17.110
first four hours were all talk shows.
00:25:17.120 --> 00:25:19.830
One of them was trade radio. And then I
00:25:19.840 --> 00:25:23.830
played program content. The, you know,
00:25:23.840 --> 00:25:26.630
uh, was kind of bartered for. We did Pet
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:29.110
Talk from Hearts Flea and Tick Collars
00:25:29.120 --> 00:25:31.110
came to us on a record. Florence
00:25:31.120 --> 00:25:33.190
Henderson, Chuck Connors hosted that by
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:35.430
the way. Um, and then you put on a
00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:37.750
record with Wality
00:25:37.760 --> 00:25:40.310
from Florence Henderson and she'd have
00:25:40.320 --> 00:25:43.029
recipes and stuff. And then you'd put on
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:45.510
the in fisherman,
00:25:45.520 --> 00:25:47.510
the in fisherman, which is a fishing
00:25:47.520 --> 00:25:49.830
show. We had all these crazy shows. Uh,
00:25:49.840 --> 00:25:53.190
the golden age of radio theater we do.
00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:56.950
Uh, and then at uh, from 5 to 6:00 we
00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:59.430
did an hour of local news to Anderson,
00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:01.430
Indiana, which is I don't know how we
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:04.630
did that, but when I was doing that,
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:06.390
Paul Harvey was a big part of our
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:09.510
programming, a very popular part. And
00:26:09.520 --> 00:26:11.990
Servicemaster was one of his bigger
00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:15.990
sponsors. And he would always just be
00:26:16.000 --> 00:26:17.590
talking about something and he'd be
00:26:17.600 --> 00:26:19.590
like, you know, the president says he'll
00:26:19.600 --> 00:26:23.909
have an answer by November.
00:26:23.919 --> 00:26:29.110
Have I told you yet about Servicemaster?
00:26:29.120 --> 00:26:32.230
If you're looking for ways to
00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:34.870
keep track of your accounting, that
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:37.190
tedious task that often befalls the
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:39.029
person less qualified for it, I can tell
00:26:39.039 --> 00:26:42.470
you Servicemaster is your solution.
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:44.630
nationwide ready at a moment's notice.
00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:46.149
Servicemaster
00:26:46.159 --> 00:26:51.029
is a company that believes in service to
00:26:51.039 --> 00:26:54.230
your master. Ask me about it. I'll tell
00:26:54.240 --> 00:26:58.390
you the story is remarkable. I mean, he
00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:00.070
and I guess there was some sort of
00:27:00.080 --> 00:27:01.669
religious association there. At least I
00:27:01.679 --> 00:27:02.950
imagine there to be one because I didn't
00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:04.630
know what the hell he was talking about.
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:06.070
I didn't need accounting services.
00:27:06.080 --> 00:27:10.149
Anyway, he was so good at that and and
00:27:10.159 --> 00:27:12.310
it didn't matter what the product was,
00:27:12.320 --> 00:27:14.149
he could just and off the top of his
00:27:14.159 --> 00:27:15.830
head, I don't know whether he wrote it
00:27:15.840 --> 00:27:17.830
or what the deal was on that. I imagine
00:27:17.840 --> 00:27:19.590
he did. Those old school radio guys
00:27:19.600 --> 00:27:21.190
wrote everything down on a piece of
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:25.029
paper, but uh he would just, you know,
00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:27.909
seamlessly the new steel belted radios
00:27:27.919 --> 00:27:31.990
from Bridgestone are garnering praise
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:34.230
and accolades from even their most
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:37.830
ardent critics. Easy
00:27:37.840 --> 00:27:41.190
on the road, safe for that family of
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:44.710
yours. I mean, he go it was wonderful.
00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:46.630
It was wonderful. What do we got here in
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:49.669
our uh YouTube chat room? What we got
00:27:49.679 --> 00:27:52.789
here? Uh people saying hi. People saying
00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:55.909
hi. People saying hi. SG fanboy is here.
00:27:55.919 --> 00:28:00.549
Bam. Good to see you as always. The wolf
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:04.630
is here. He says, "Hello, folks. This is
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:08.149
not a Paul Harvey. Zelipa is here. Says,
00:28:08.159 --> 00:28:10.310
"Hia, Tom, Chef, Ken, Super Duper,
00:28:10.320 --> 00:28:12.149
Triple Dipper, Enjoy. I'm finally caught
00:28:12.159 --> 00:28:17.430
up." Hey, good to see you, Zelipa. Uh,
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:19.269
and uh, people saying, "Hi." We do have
00:28:19.279 --> 00:28:20.950
the most cheerful chat room on the
00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:24.389
internet as verified by independent
00:28:24.399 --> 00:28:29.669
sources, sources you can trust. Um,
00:28:29.679 --> 00:28:32.549
let's see here.
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:35.510
It is the legend that is SG fanboy says
00:28:35.520 --> 00:28:38.470
the wolf. That's right. Uh
00:28:38.480 --> 00:28:40.789
chef says salon. Yeah, I've had that up
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:43.110
there for I don't know how long. Sorry
00:28:43.120 --> 00:28:45.190
audio podcast listeners. SG fanboy says
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:47.029
sorry for what Dupa. Good to see you
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:50.230
guys. Good to see you too as always. SG
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:52.149
fanboy. It's just always wonderful to
00:28:52.159 --> 00:28:54.149
see it. Anyway,
00:28:54.159 --> 00:28:56.470
um he drew the scrutiny from people that
00:28:56.480 --> 00:28:57.909
didn't like it that he was so good at
00:28:57.919 --> 00:29:00.710
incorporating in that. And now live read
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:03.510
commercials are the upper echelon of
00:29:03.520 --> 00:29:05.269
commercial time. If you want Sean
00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:07.909
Hannity or if you wanted Rush Limbbo to
00:29:07.919 --> 00:29:11.750
read your commercial themselves live and
00:29:11.760 --> 00:29:15.510
on the air, that was Primo Diero as we
00:29:15.520 --> 00:29:17.990
say down south of the border come Mexico
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:21.269
way. And he's the one that started that.
00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:24.470
Paul Harvey is the one I can't say for
00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:25.990
sure he started but he certainly is the
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:29.669
one that popularized it and he got
00:29:29.679 --> 00:29:32.870
a lot of you know flack for it and some
00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:35.029
have argued that his fawning and lavish
00:29:35.039 --> 00:29:36.470
product endorsements may have been
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:39.350
misleading or confusing to his audience.
00:29:39.360 --> 00:29:41.669
I don't think they were misleading and I
00:29:41.679 --> 00:29:43.269
don't think they were confusing and the
00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:44.950
only way they would be misleading is if
00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:47.269
the product sponsor gave him misleading
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:50.630
information. But, uh, Paul Harvey, Paul
00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:53.190
Harvey is not going to Paul Harveyy's
00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:56.470
not going to jack you up. Um, his
00:29:56.480 --> 00:29:58.870
endorsed products included Eden Pure
00:29:58.880 --> 00:30:02.149
Heaters, Bose Whoops. Oh, Sal. Wait,
00:30:02.159 --> 00:30:03.190
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:05.830
wait. Salon magazine called him the
00:30:05.840 --> 00:30:09.430
finest Huster ever to roam the airwaves.
00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:13.029
And he was, he was good at it. Uh,
00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:16.870
Edenpure, uh, Bose radios.
00:30:16.880 --> 00:30:18.870
I can remember those Bose radios.
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:20.950
Startling quality. Yes, if you want to
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:23.190
hear my voice in its most natural and
00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:25.590
pristine state, you will spare no
00:30:25.600 --> 00:30:27.430
expense and get the finest quality
00:30:27.440 --> 00:30:29.590
product on the market. And that word for
00:30:29.600 --> 00:30:32.230
you is Bose.
00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:35.190
Bose radios have long been the leader in
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:37.830
the category amongst afficados that know
00:30:37.840 --> 00:30:39.590
quality when they see it and more
00:30:39.600 --> 00:30:42.549
importantly when they hear it. I've
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:45.190
heard him so much I can just do him. I'm
00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:48.470
sorry. I have heard I probably oh god
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:49.909
you know I don't know how many years
00:30:49.919 --> 00:30:53.110
anyway uh select comfort mattresses
00:30:53.120 --> 00:30:55.909
which are now known as sleep number uh
00:30:55.919 --> 00:30:58.789
highalth dietary supplements in
00:30:58.799 --> 00:31:00.950
including a supplement that was claimed
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:02.870
to improve vision but was later the
00:31:02.880 --> 00:31:06.070
subject of a federal trade commission
00:31:06.080 --> 00:31:07.510
enforcement action against the
00:31:07.520 --> 00:31:10.549
manufacturer but not Paul Harvey for
00:31:10.559 --> 00:31:12.710
misleading claims made on his show. Like
00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:17.029
I said, if the if the uh client if the
00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:19.269
advertiser gave him misleading
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:21.590
information,
00:31:21.600 --> 00:31:23.590
that's the only way he'd be misleading
00:31:23.600 --> 00:31:24.950
people.
00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:26.470
Um,
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:29.190
in one of the tribute broadcasts after
00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:32.310
his passing, Gil Gross said that Paul
00:31:32.320 --> 00:31:34.549
Harvey considered advertising just
00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:37.110
another type of news and that he
00:31:37.120 --> 00:31:39.990
endorsed only products he believed in,
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:43.669
often by interviewing someone at the
00:31:43.679 --> 00:31:45.269
company.
00:31:45.279 --> 00:31:47.350
I remember he talked about that quite a
00:31:47.360 --> 00:31:50.070
bit. Actually the most exciting news on
00:31:50.080 --> 00:31:53.269
a day-to-day basis is the amazing
00:31:53.279 --> 00:31:54.950
products which are being developed in
00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:58.630
this capitalist society. Manufacturers,
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:01.110
product scientists,
00:32:01.120 --> 00:32:03.509
inventors, all of those people are
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:05.830
working on a daily basis in greater
00:32:05.840 --> 00:32:08.950
numbers than even our military.
00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:11.830
The products you see in here are really
00:32:11.840 --> 00:32:15.110
the re
00:32:15.120 --> 00:32:18.149
anyway. Let's see. Uh, Dupa Doopaoo
00:32:18.159 --> 00:32:19.990
says, "Anyone remember Rich Hall's Carl
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:22.389
Harvey impersonation impression?" No,
00:32:22.399 --> 00:32:25.190
but I'm a giant Rich Hall fan. I'm I'm
00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:27.430
surprised I've not heard that. Zelipa
00:32:27.440 --> 00:32:29.990
says, "I loved him." Kendo says, "I
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:31.590
remember Rich Hall's impression. He did
00:32:31.600 --> 00:32:35.509
a good job, but not as good as me."
00:32:35.519 --> 00:32:39.190
The chef says, "Time to do my laundry."
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:41.350
Well, if you're doing your laundry, you
00:32:41.360 --> 00:32:43.909
might look into products or perhaps
00:32:43.919 --> 00:32:46.149
adopting a franchise of your own from a
00:32:46.159 --> 00:32:47.750
word you've all heard and it's called
00:32:47.760 --> 00:32:51.269
Amway. Amway stretches this entire
00:32:51.279 --> 00:32:53.830
country and people have not only enjoyed
00:32:53.840 --> 00:32:56.789
the benefit of its many products.
00:32:56.799 --> 00:32:59.029
They've benefited in the pocketbook by
00:32:59.039 --> 00:33:02.870
starting their own my business.
00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:04.950
Find out about it today by calling.
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:07.509
Anyway,
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:09.590
he was an interesting guy off the air,
00:33:09.600 --> 00:33:11.350
too.
00:33:11.360 --> 00:33:13.430
He really was.
00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:15.669
Uh, why am I why have I got that going
00:33:15.679 --> 00:33:17.830
on? I should have that going on. All
00:33:17.840 --> 00:33:20.950
right. Um,
00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:23.590
beginning in 1952,
00:33:23.600 --> 00:33:26.630
Paul Harvey was a friend of FBI director
00:33:26.640 --> 00:33:28.789
Jay Garhoover.
00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:30.710
And Paul Harvey would often submit
00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:33.430
advanced copies of his radio script for
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:36.950
comment and approval from Hoover. His
00:33:36.960 --> 00:33:38.630
friendship with Jay Edgar may have
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:40.789
helped him escape criminal charges of
00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:42.870
course relating to his trespassing at
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:46.070
the Argon National Laboratory
00:33:46.080 --> 00:33:50.310
and he was happy to defend Hoover
00:33:50.320 --> 00:33:53.909
and spoke of him on his show April 25th
00:33:53.919 --> 00:33:55.990
1963.
00:33:56.000 --> 00:33:59.269
God help the United States without John
00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:01.350
Edgar Hoover.
00:34:01.360 --> 00:34:03.750
Director Hoover is not retiring if you
00:34:03.760 --> 00:34:06.310
have heard otherwise. Someone's sinister
00:34:06.320 --> 00:34:10.069
wish was the father of that thought. It
00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:14.230
is not so.
00:34:14.240 --> 00:34:18.710
Paul Harvey was also a close friend of
00:34:18.720 --> 00:34:21.829
US Senator Joseph McCarthy. You know the
00:34:21.839 --> 00:34:24.710
McCarthy hearing
00:34:24.720 --> 00:34:27.030
and he did support his campaign to
00:34:27.040 --> 00:34:28.869
expose and expel communists from
00:34:28.879 --> 00:34:32.550
American society and government.
00:34:32.560 --> 00:34:35.109
Paul Harvey was also a close friend of
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:39.270
George Vandeamman and the Reverend Billy
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:41.270
Graham.
00:34:41.280 --> 00:34:43.829
From the mid 1970s to the mid 80s, Paul
00:34:43.839 --> 00:34:47.109
Harvey attended Cavalry Memorial Church
00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:49.030
in Oak Park, Illinois. And when the
00:34:49.040 --> 00:34:51.109
church moved from its original location
00:34:51.119 --> 00:34:54.230
on Madison Street,
00:34:54.240 --> 00:34:57.270
Paul Harvey asked the Reverend Graham to
00:34:57.280 --> 00:35:00.790
preach at the dedication service.
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:02.790
But Paul Harvey associated with various
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:04.390
congregations of different
00:35:04.400 --> 00:35:06.550
denominations. He and his wife regularly
00:35:06.560 --> 00:35:09.829
attended the Camelback Adventist Church
00:35:09.839 --> 00:35:12.310
in Scottsdale, Arizona during his
00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:15.109
winters there. And he often quoted the
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:20.630
Advent Adventist pioneer Ellen G. white
00:35:20.640 --> 00:35:22.710
in his broadcasts
00:35:22.720 --> 00:35:27.349
and received the Golden Microphone Award
00:35:27.359 --> 00:35:30.470
for his professionalism and graciousness
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:36.950
with dealing with the church.
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:40.310
He was known for his rhetorical style.
00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:42.470
Robert D. McFaden
00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:44.950
writing Harvey's obituary for the New
00:35:44.960 --> 00:35:47.670
York Times.
00:35:47.680 --> 00:35:49.349
I don't know why there's a blank screen
00:35:49.359 --> 00:35:53.430
there, but that's fine. Um,
00:35:53.440 --> 00:35:59.270
examined his unique radio style and uh
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:01.990
his, you know, how it inter interacted
00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:04.230
with the political
00:36:04.240 --> 00:36:06.790
scene and his own political views. He
00:36:06.800 --> 00:36:08.230
personalized radio news with his
00:36:08.240 --> 00:36:09.990
right-wing opinions, but laced them with
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:12.870
his own trademarks. A hypnotic timber,
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:15.829
extended pauses for effect, heartwarming
00:36:15.839 --> 00:36:18.870
tales of average Americans, and folksy
00:36:18.880 --> 00:36:21.510
observations that evoke the heartland,
00:36:21.520 --> 00:36:24.150
family values in the old-fashioned plain
00:36:24.160 --> 00:36:26.950
talk, one heard around the dinner table
00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:29.670
on Saturday. "Hello, Americans," he
00:36:29.680 --> 00:36:34.069
barked. "This is Paul Harvey. Stand by
00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:37.030
for news.
00:36:37.040 --> 00:36:39.430
He railed against welfare cheats and
00:36:39.440 --> 00:36:41.349
defended the death penalty. He worried
00:36:41.359 --> 00:36:43.510
about the national debt, big government,
00:36:43.520 --> 00:36:45.589
bureaucrats who lacked common sense,
00:36:45.599 --> 00:36:47.750
permissive parents,
00:36:47.760 --> 00:36:50.630
radicals, and America's succumbing to
00:36:50.640 --> 00:36:52.710
moral decay. He championed rugged
00:36:52.720 --> 00:36:54.230
individualism,
00:36:54.240 --> 00:36:55.990
love of God and country, and the
00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:58.150
fundamental decency
00:36:58.160 --> 00:37:00.470
of ordinary people.
00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:01.990
He was elected to the National
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:04.710
Broadcasters National Radio Hall of Fame
00:37:04.720 --> 00:37:07.349
and Oklahoma fame. Oh, Oklahoma fame.
00:37:07.359 --> 00:37:10.230
Oklahoma Hall of Fame. And he appeared
00:37:10.240 --> 00:37:13.589
on Gallup's list of America's most
00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:17.190
admired men. In addition, he received 11
00:37:17.200 --> 00:37:19.829
Freedom Foundation awards as well as the
00:37:19.839 --> 00:37:24.470
Horatio Alio Alger, excuse me, award. In
00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:26.069
1993,
00:37:26.079 --> 00:37:31.190
Paul Harvey was awarded a Peabody award.
00:37:31.200 --> 00:37:34.950
In 2005, he was awarded the Presidential
00:37:34.960 --> 00:37:37.270

Civilian Award. I've got God, it's so
00:37:41.839 --> 00:37:43.349
hard for me not to. I'm just going to do
00:37:43.359 --> 00:37:47.190
it. In n in 2005, he was awarded the
00:37:47.200 --> 00:37:50.390
presidential medal of freedom, the
00:37:50.400 --> 00:37:52.950

award awarded by President George W.
00:37:56.480 --> 00:37:59.829
Bush.
00:37:59.839 --> 00:38:02.150
Bush's remarks summarized Harvey's
00:38:02.160 --> 00:38:03.910
career.
00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:06.950
He first went on the air in 1933. He's
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:10.390
been heard nationwide for 54 years.
00:38:10.400 --> 00:38:12.230
Americans like the sound of his voice.
00:38:12.240 --> 00:38:13.750
Over the decades, we've come to
00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:16.150
recognize in that voice some of the
00:38:16.160 --> 00:38:18.069
finest qualities of our country.
00:38:18.079 --> 00:38:20.390
Patriotism, the good humor, the
00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:23.990
kindness, the common sense of Americans.
00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:27.190
Yeah. In 1992, he received the Paul
00:38:27.200 --> 00:38:31.430
White Award of the Radio Television
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:34.310
Digital News Association. By the way, uh
00:38:34.320 --> 00:38:37.349
that's Paul White on the right there. Uh
00:38:37.359 --> 00:38:39.829
sorry audio podcast listeners. Uh the
00:38:39.839 --> 00:38:42.630
guy on the left is a freak.
00:38:42.640 --> 00:38:45.030
I actually do know his name, but but I'm
00:38:45.040 --> 00:38:46.310
just going to tell you he's a freak
00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:49.270
because it's tedious story to tell. And
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:52.870
and that was awarded by the
00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:54.950
radio television digital news
00:38:54.960 --> 00:38:59.589
association in 1992.
00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:02.150
Raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma. the son of
00:39:02.160 --> 00:39:09.910
Harry Harrison Art. Art A ur
00:39:09.920 --> 00:39:13.430
and Anna Dagmar Art.
00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:15.510
His father was born in Pennsylvania. His
00:39:15.520 --> 00:39:17.750
mother was Danish.
00:39:17.760 --> 00:39:20.470
He had uh one sibling, an older sister,
00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:24.150
Francis Harrieta.
00:39:24.160 --> 00:39:27.910
In December 1921, when Harvey was a
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:31.190
budding three years old, his father in
00:39:31.200 --> 00:39:34.630
the line of duty had his life taken from
00:39:34.640 --> 00:39:38.870
him. The elder ar was a Tulsa policeman
00:39:38.880 --> 00:39:40.790
who served as secretary to Commissioner
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:43.910
JH Atkinson.
00:39:43.920 --> 00:39:45.750
While serving nobly on the night of
00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:48.150
December 18th, Officer Arant and a
00:39:48.160 --> 00:39:50.470
friend, Tulsa Police Detective Ike
00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:54.150
Wilkerson, were off duty rabbit hunting
00:39:54.160 --> 00:39:56.870
when they were approached by four masked
00:39:56.880 --> 00:40:01.750
and armed men who attempted to rob them.
00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:04.470
Mr. Arant was shot and died two days
00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:06.390
later from his wounds. A large-scale
00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:08.230
manhunt resulted in the arrest of four
00:40:08.240 --> 00:40:11.750
suspects the day after his death. A
00:40:11.760 --> 00:40:15.430
lynch mob of 1,000 people formed at the
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:17.910
jail, but the suspects were smuggled out
00:40:17.920 --> 00:40:19.750
clandestantly under the cover of
00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:22.790
darkness. Two of them would be convicted
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:27.030
of murder and sentenced to life
00:40:27.040 --> 00:40:29.510
as they welld deserved following
00:40:29.520 --> 00:40:32.710
identification by the Ursw Wild
00:40:32.720 --> 00:40:35.030
detective Wilkerson, who said that he
00:40:35.040 --> 00:40:38.790
knew the men and was able to recognize
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:45.030
them despite their masks.
00:40:45.040 --> 00:40:47.109
In 1940,
00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:51.349
Paul Harvey married Lynn Cooper of St.
00:40:51.359 --> 00:40:53.190
Louis.
00:40:53.200 --> 00:40:55.430
She herself was inducted into the Fib
00:40:55.440 --> 00:40:58.790
Beta Kappa
00:40:58.800 --> 00:41:00.790
fraternal organization at Washington
00:41:00.800 --> 00:41:02.550
University in St. Louis and she was a
00:41:02.560 --> 00:41:04.950
former school teacher. They met when
00:41:04.960 --> 00:41:08.550
Harvey was working at KXOX,
00:41:08.560 --> 00:41:10.790
sorry, Kx,
00:41:10.800 --> 00:41:12.790
and Cooper came to the station for a
00:41:12.800 --> 00:41:16.230
school news program. Harvey invited her
00:41:16.240 --> 00:41:18.309
to dinner, proposed to her after a few
00:41:18.319 --> 00:41:20.790
minutes of conversation,
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:24.390
and from then on called her Angel, even
00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:27.750
on his radio show. A year later,
00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:29.910
after many urgent and subsequent
00:41:29.920 --> 00:41:32.309
requests for that matrimonial
00:41:32.319 --> 00:41:35.589
agreement, she said yes,
00:41:35.599 --> 00:41:43.670
and the couple moved to Chicago in 1944.
00:41:43.680 --> 00:41:47.589
On May 17th, 2007,
00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:49.750
Paul Harvey told his radio audience that
00:41:49.760 --> 00:41:53.030
Angel had developed leukemia.
00:41:53.040 --> 00:41:55.510
Her death at the age of 92 was announced
00:41:55.520 --> 00:41:59.190
by ABC radio on May 3rd, 2008 when she
00:41:59.200 --> 00:42:02.150
died at their Forest River home.
00:42:02.160 --> 00:42:04.790
The Chicago Sun Times described her as
00:42:04.800 --> 00:42:07.510
more than his astute business partner
00:42:07.520 --> 00:42:09.829
and producer. She was also a pioneer for
00:42:09.839 --> 00:42:13.190
women in radio and an influential figure
00:42:13.200 --> 00:42:17.030
in her own right for decades.
00:42:17.040 --> 00:42:18.710
According to the founder of the Museum
00:42:18.720 --> 00:42:20.950
of Broadcast Communications, Bruce
00:42:20.960 --> 00:42:22.710
Dumont,
00:42:22.720 --> 00:42:26.069
she was to Paul Harvey what Colonel Tom
00:42:26.079 --> 00:42:28.230
Parker was
00:42:28.240 --> 00:42:31.270
to Elvis Presley. She really put him on
00:42:31.280 --> 00:42:34.710
track to have the phenomenal career
00:42:34.720 --> 00:42:38.069
that he did have.
00:42:38.079 --> 00:42:40.710
Lynn Angel Harvey was the first producer
00:42:40.720 --> 00:42:43.430
inducted into the radio hall of fame and
00:42:43.440 --> 00:42:45.430
had developed some of her husband's best
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:47.750
known features, such as the rest of the
00:42:47.760 --> 00:42:50.309
story. While working on her husband's
00:42:50.319 --> 00:42:52.790
radio show, she established 10 p.m. as
00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:57.349
the hour in which news is broadcast. She
00:42:57.359 --> 00:42:58.790
was the first woman to receive a
00:42:58.800 --> 00:43:00.710
lifetime achievement award from the
00:43:00.720 --> 00:43:02.710
Chicago chapter of American women in
00:43:02.720 --> 00:43:05.349
radio and television. She worked in
00:43:05.359 --> 00:43:07.910
television also created a television
00:43:07.920 --> 00:43:10.230
show called Dilemma
00:43:10.240 --> 00:43:12.390
which is acknowledged as the prototype
00:43:12.400 --> 00:43:15.109
of the modern talk show genre. While
00:43:15.119 --> 00:43:17.270
working at CBS she was the first woman
00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:20.309
to produce an entire newscast
00:43:20.319 --> 00:43:23.670
and in later years she was best known as
00:43:23.680 --> 00:43:30.390
a philanthropist.
00:43:30.400 --> 00:43:34.470
The couple had only one son, Paul Arant
00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:36.950
Jr., who goes by the name Paul Harvey
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:41.910
Jr.,
00:43:41.920 --> 00:43:44.550
he assisted his father at news and
00:43:44.560 --> 00:43:46.710
comment and the rest of the story. Paul
00:43:46.720 --> 00:43:49.750
Jr., whose voice announced the bumpers
00:43:49.760 --> 00:43:51.910
between episodes, filled in for his
00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:53.990
father during broadcasts and broadcast
00:43:54.000 --> 00:43:56.470
the morning editions after the passing
00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:59.270
of his mother.
00:43:59.280 --> 00:44:03.829
Paul Harvey died on February 28th,
00:44:03.839 --> 00:44:07.829
2009 at the age of 90 in a hospital in
00:44:07.839 --> 00:44:09.829
Phoenix, Arizona, surrounded by family
00:44:09.839 --> 00:44:11.589
and friends. No cause of death was
00:44:11.599 --> 00:44:14.550
announced in response
00:44:14.560 --> 00:44:17.030
to the news of his father's death. His
00:44:17.040 --> 00:44:19.829
son, Paul Harvey Jr., said millions have
00:44:19.839 --> 00:44:21.990
lost a friend.
00:44:22.000 --> 00:44:23.670
At the time of his death, he had less
00:44:23.680 --> 00:44:25.510
than two years left on his 10-year
00:44:25.520 --> 00:44:28.309
contract. Former President George W.
00:44:28.319 --> 00:44:30.069
Bush issued a statement on Harvey's
00:44:30.079 --> 00:44:31.589
death, calling him a friendly and
00:44:31.599 --> 00:44:34.790
familiar voice in the lives of millions
00:44:34.800 --> 00:44:38.870
of Americans.
00:44:38.880 --> 00:44:40.710
Paul Harvey's full-length biography,
00:44:40.720 --> 00:44:43.910
Good Day, the Paul Harvey Story, was
00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:47.910
published in May of 2009 by
00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:54.950
Reginary Publishing.
00:44:54.960 --> 00:44:58.230
February of 2013,
00:44:58.240 --> 00:45:03.030
a recording of Paul Harvey's So God Made
00:45:03.040 --> 00:45:06.309
a Farmer
00:45:06.319 --> 00:45:09.030
was used by Ram Trucks in a commercial
00:45:09.040 --> 00:45:12.470
titled Farmer, which aired during Super
00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:19.349
Bowl XLVI.
00:45:19.359 --> 00:45:21.750
Oh, brother,
00:45:21.760 --> 00:45:23.910
brother, brother, brother, brother. And
00:45:23.920 --> 00:45:25.589
that
00:45:25.599 --> 00:45:29.910
is the rest of the story and all I have
00:45:29.920 --> 00:45:33.670
to tell you about the late great legend
00:45:33.680 --> 00:45:35.910
that is and was
00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:43.670
Paul Harvey.
00:45:43.680 --> 00:45:45.829
Let me see here. Oh my gosh, we got so
00:45:45.839 --> 00:45:47.829
much stuff in our live interactive
00:45:47.839 --> 00:45:51.030
YouTube chat room. Uh, Butterdick Jones
00:45:51.040 --> 00:45:53.190
says, "I too am actively doing laundry."
00:45:53.200 --> 00:45:55.030
Well, if you are, you will enjoy the
00:45:55.040 --> 00:45:58.470

families since. Anyway, um, Zelipa says,
00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:11.030
"Uhoh, in cahoots with some big evil."
00:46:11.040 --> 00:46:12.309
Well, yeah, that's what I was talking
00:46:12.319 --> 00:46:14.309
about earlier, Zelipa.
00:46:14.319 --> 00:46:16.630
Well, he knew some power brokers, but
00:46:16.640 --> 00:46:18.230
they weren't necessarily the nicest ones
00:46:18.240 --> 00:46:20.230
to know. Uh, the wolf says, "I want to
00:46:20.240 --> 00:46:22.150
hear Paul Harvey do an ad for the
00:46:22.160 --> 00:46:23.750

00:46:36.800 --> 00:46:38.390

I know every day in our humrum lives, in
00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:54.470
our workday toils, we sometimes feel a
00:46:54.480 --> 00:46:57.430
bit run down. What with the news of the
00:46:57.440 --> 00:47:00.069
day not always being positive and
00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:03.990
everyday issues of life occasionally
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:06.790
placing obstacles in the way of our good
00:47:06.800 --> 00:47:09.990
humor. Pervatine is the product which
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:13.270

chocolate treats,
00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:21.750
once famous in Europe, have now come to
00:47:21.760 --> 00:47:28.069
our shores and they are marvelous.
00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:31.190
And that's the rest of this. Anyway, uh
00:47:31.200 --> 00:47:33.030
let's see.
00:47:33.040 --> 00:47:35.109
Tom, spot on. Paul Harvey impression.
00:47:35.119 --> 00:47:38.150
Thank you, Dupa. Thank you.
00:47:38.160 --> 00:47:40.710
By the way, our our I'll get that a
00:47:40.720 --> 00:47:44.710
second. Uh XLVI. Yes, Dupa. I'm not
00:47:44.720 --> 00:47:47.349
doing that Roman numeral math. Once you
00:47:47.359 --> 00:47:51.670
get past about 10. Uh
00:47:51.680 --> 00:47:54.069
yeah, by the way, we have not met our
00:47:54.079 --> 00:47:59.190
nightly goal of any amount of money.
00:47:59.200 --> 00:48:01.510
And uh
00:48:01.520 --> 00:48:03.190
so
00:48:03.200 --> 00:48:05.030
whatever.
00:48:05.040 --> 00:48:08.710
Um I can tell you that story.
00:48:08.720 --> 00:48:10.950
Um,
00:48:10.960 --> 00:48:14.150
you know, Paul Harvey took his Caddy
00:48:14.160 --> 00:48:16.630
over to that nuclear facility past
00:48:16.640 --> 00:48:19.190
midnight and he parked in a really
00:48:19.200 --> 00:48:25.510
secluded spot and uh he put his overcoat
00:48:25.520 --> 00:48:28.069
over the top of a barbwire fence so he
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:31.030
could climb over it and he wanted to
00:48:31.040 --> 00:48:34.790
scratch his signature on things
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:37.270
to prove that he'd been there. All
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:41.349
right. Uh he was there with an offduty
00:48:41.359 --> 00:48:44.790
guard, by the way. But uh right after he
00:48:44.800 --> 00:48:46.470
scampered over the barbwire fence,
00:48:46.480 --> 00:48:49.510
security officers got their peepers on
00:48:49.520 --> 00:48:53.510
him and he ran until he the a jeep that
00:48:53.520 --> 00:48:55.109
was chasing him had him in his
00:48:55.119 --> 00:48:58.710
headlights and he tripped and fell and
00:48:58.720 --> 00:49:02.069
uh the guards got out and started coming
00:49:02.079 --> 00:49:03.910
after him and he got on his feet and
00:49:03.920 --> 00:49:05.990
waved to him.
00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:07.750
They asked him if he realized it was a
00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:11.270
restricted area and he said no. He
00:49:11.280 --> 00:49:12.549
thought he might be at the airport
00:49:12.559 --> 00:49:14.230
because of the red lights and he told
00:49:14.240 --> 00:49:15.910
him he'd been headed to a neighboring
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:19.030
town to give a speech when his car died.
00:49:19.040 --> 00:49:21.270
But they grilled him for long enough
00:49:21.280 --> 00:49:23.510
that he eventually
00:49:23.520 --> 00:49:28.309
gave up that Kakami story and
00:49:28.319 --> 00:49:30.950
refused to elaborate. Said he wanted to
00:49:30.960 --> 00:49:32.870
tell his story before a congressional
00:49:32.880 --> 00:49:35.430
committee. And when the guards searched
00:49:35.440 --> 00:49:37.349
his caddy, they found a four-page
00:49:37.359 --> 00:49:39.349
typewritten script from an up for an
00:49:39.359 --> 00:49:42.069
upcoming broadcast.
00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:44.069
Uh,
00:49:44.079 --> 00:49:45.990
as it turned out, he had planned from
00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:51.270
the start to broadcast this thing. Uh,
00:49:51.280 --> 00:49:53.510
the script read, "I hereby affirm the
00:49:53.520 --> 00:49:55.589
following is a true and accurate
00:49:55.599 --> 00:49:57.990
account. My friend and I were driving a
00:49:58.000 --> 00:50:00.390
once familiar road when the car stalled.
00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:02.549
We started to walk. We made no effort to
00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:08.230
conceal our presence.
00:50:08.240 --> 00:50:12.470
Good old Paul Harvey. Um, my only real
00:50:12.480 --> 00:50:17.829
brush with Paul Harvey is as follows.
00:50:17.839 --> 00:50:20.309
even at this little radio station and we
00:50:20.319 --> 00:50:22.710
were at what's called a daytimer. Okay,
00:50:22.720 --> 00:50:26.390
our our strength of our AM signal was
00:50:26.400 --> 00:50:30.470
very strong during the day, but at night
00:50:30.480 --> 00:50:33.910
time we had to power that signal down.
00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:36.069
I'm sure many of you have been in a car
00:50:36.079 --> 00:50:37.990
or somewhere and you you know you live
00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:39.829
in, let's say, Chicago and you're
00:50:39.839 --> 00:50:41.990
getting a station from New Orleans.
00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:44.630
Well, that's because at nighttime
00:50:44.640 --> 00:50:48.950
AM signals bounce off of the ionosphere.
00:50:48.960 --> 00:50:51.270
They bounce off the clouds. FM is a
00:50:51.280 --> 00:50:54.710
ground signal. So when the when the
00:50:54.720 --> 00:50:57.829
clouds raise at nighttime,
00:50:57.839 --> 00:51:00.710
that signal bounces much further. And so
00:51:00.720 --> 00:51:02.470
if there's a station with the same
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:05.510
frequency that's within a certain
00:51:05.520 --> 00:51:07.910
distance, you have to power the power
00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:10.230
down of your station.
00:51:10.240 --> 00:51:13.750
And uh so we were a small station,
00:51:13.760 --> 00:51:18.069
you know, WHBUM. I think we were were we
00:51:18.079 --> 00:51:20.069
1260
00:51:20.079 --> 00:51:24.470
or 1240? No, we were 1240, I think. And
00:51:24.480 --> 00:51:26.549
um
00:51:26.559 --> 00:51:29.190
we would get promos
00:51:29.200 --> 00:51:32.470
from most of the shows that we we had on
00:51:32.480 --> 00:51:35.430
um you know on our station. supporting
00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:38.069
the local affiliates was very very po
00:51:38.079 --> 00:51:40.470
important even to pet talk with Chuck
00:51:40.480 --> 00:51:42.390
Connors from Hearts Fle and Tick
00:51:42.400 --> 00:51:45.109
College. Even the Wessonity show with
00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:48.150
Florence Henderson from Wesson.
00:51:48.160 --> 00:51:52.710
Um even the in fisherman all of these
00:51:52.720 --> 00:51:56.309
hosts to these shows would do pro promos
00:51:56.319 --> 00:51:58.630
for us. We had we had Johnny Cash's
00:51:58.640 --> 00:52:00.790
American Folklore.
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:02.950
Let me tell you the story of the cow
00:52:02.960 --> 00:52:04.870
catcher.
00:52:04.880 --> 00:52:07.270
It's enough to make you say moo. And
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:09.430
then he would tell the actual story of
00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:11.990
how the cow catcher got on the front of
00:52:12.000 --> 00:52:16.309
railroad uh engines. Anyway,
00:52:16.319 --> 00:52:18.470
when we would get a promo in, it was a
00:52:18.480 --> 00:52:22.309
big deal. Our little tiny station there
00:52:22.319 --> 00:52:24.710
in the standard, was it the standard
00:52:24.720 --> 00:52:27.030
building in downtown
00:52:27.040 --> 00:52:30.230
uh Anderson? It it was a really cool old
00:52:30.240 --> 00:52:34.390
building. And um man, I love that
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:37.270
station. The they had two doors. There
00:52:37.280 --> 00:52:39.510
was a front door to an office and they
00:52:39.520 --> 00:52:41.270
were on the same hall, but the first
00:52:41.280 --> 00:52:43.349
door you came to was where all the
00:52:43.359 --> 00:52:46.230
broadcast personnel went in. And it's
00:52:46.240 --> 00:52:50.790
like those old Sam Spade or Phil Know
00:52:50.800 --> 00:52:54.230
offices where they paint the the signs
00:52:54.240 --> 00:52:56.630
on. And this one had real scripty
00:52:56.640 --> 00:53:01.030
letters and it it just was WHBUAM
00:53:01.040 --> 00:53:03.109
1240,
00:53:03.119 --> 00:53:06.630
a CBS News radio affiliate in kind of
00:53:06.640 --> 00:53:10.630
italic with a big CBS
00:53:10.640 --> 00:53:13.109
and uh but it was a little old station
00:53:13.119 --> 00:53:17.430
and second oldest station in the state.
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:20.150
Not a great station. it, you know, and I
00:53:20.160 --> 00:53:23.190
could tell you stories, but I had to
00:53:23.200 --> 00:53:26.390
turn the transmitter on
00:53:26.400 --> 00:53:29.430
like 3540 minutes before we wanted to go
00:53:29.440 --> 00:53:32.870
on the air to get it warmed up because
00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:36.790
it was tubes and stuff. Um,
00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:38.870
but when we get one of those promos, the
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:40.790
whole staff would gather around and
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:43.430
listen. Uh, I remember Johnny Cash, his
00:53:43.440 --> 00:53:47.349
was, "You're listening to Person Radio
00:53:47.359 --> 00:53:52.069
on WHBU Anderson, Indiana. How you like
00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:55.750
them beans?" It was so great. But Paul
00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:57.349
Harvey's
00:53:57.359 --> 00:54:01.750
was uh singular in that you could hear
00:54:01.760 --> 00:54:07.589
him talking to because I'm sure
00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:11.030
you know he just sat down and they
00:54:11.040 --> 00:54:13.910
probably had him do cuz he was on 1300.
00:54:13.920 --> 00:54:15.829
They probably for a period of two weeks
00:54:15.839 --> 00:54:17.829
had him do 50 of them a day or
00:54:17.839 --> 00:54:22.309
something. Uh and and he you know you
00:54:22.319 --> 00:54:27.430
could hear him going watch this next one
00:54:27.440 --> 00:54:29.910
uh person to person. Got it. And you'd
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:31.589
hear him talking and you could hear the
00:54:31.599 --> 00:54:34.549
engineer talking in the background and
00:54:34.559 --> 00:54:40.309
uh it so you it was cool. It was cool.
00:54:40.319 --> 00:54:42.870
This is Paul Harvey encouraging you and
00:54:42.880 --> 00:54:46.710
your neighbors to listen to my show and
00:54:46.720 --> 00:54:49.829
the rest to news and comment and the
00:54:49.839 --> 00:54:53.190
rest of the story on persontoperson
00:54:53.200 --> 00:54:57.109
radio Anderson Indiana WHBU. It was
00:54:57.119 --> 00:55:00.870
great. It was great. It was wonderful.
00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:04.309
Uh let me see here. Spot on
00:55:04.319 --> 00:55:10.309
uh XLVI is 47. Thank you Kendo. Um, the
00:55:10.319 --> 00:55:12.549
wolf says, "You bet it'll put a pep in
00:55:12.559 --> 00:55:14.790
your step." Dupa dupaoo says, "You're
00:55:14.800 --> 00:55:16.309
the best. I'm embarrassing. I'm
00:55:16.319 --> 00:55:17.589
embarrassed how long it took me to
00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:20.150
figure out 47." Yeah, why did they do
00:55:20.160 --> 00:55:23.670
that with the Super Bowl? Just say 47.
00:55:23.680 --> 00:55:26.069
Um, Kendo says, "I guess it comes from
00:55:26.079 --> 00:55:28.870
teaching mathematics for 33 years at
00:55:28.880 --> 00:55:31.270
Florida State University, home of the
00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:33.190
seinals."
00:55:33.200 --> 00:55:35.829
Uh, Dupadoo says, "Kendo, my favorite
00:55:35.839 --> 00:55:38.790
teacher was a math teacher.
00:55:38.800 --> 00:55:42.150
I can't do that Roman numeral math, man.
00:55:42.160 --> 00:55:43.829
I used to be able to. I can't do it
00:55:43.839 --> 00:55:46.549
anymore. One of uh a kid from my high
00:55:46.559 --> 00:55:49.990
school played basketball at uh
00:55:50.000 --> 00:55:52.950
Florida State.
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:55.589
Last name was Shephard.
00:55:55.599 --> 00:55:57.270
Is it Danny? She was a shooting guard.
00:55:57.280 --> 00:56:02.470
Anyway, hey man. Uh that's our story.
00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:06.150
It's sad to tell on Paul Harvey. Hope
00:56:06.160 --> 00:56:09.670
you enjoyed it. Um,
00:56:09.680 --> 00:56:11.589
what else we got going on here?
00:56:11.599 --> 00:56:13.670
Anybody's got a suggestion for another
00:56:13.680 --> 00:56:16.549
story, I'd love to hear it. Um,
00:56:16.559 --> 00:56:18.630
otherwise, you'll have to leave it to my
00:56:18.640 --> 00:56:21.109
devices. I don't know if we'll do a
00:56:21.119 --> 00:56:25.270
Friday show tomorrow. I Friday shows, I
00:56:25.280 --> 00:56:27.910
mean, they're really, they don't do
00:56:27.920 --> 00:56:29.829
well.
00:56:29.839 --> 00:56:33.270
They just don't do well, ladies and
00:56:33.280 --> 00:56:34.710
gentlemen.
00:56:34.720 --> 00:56:38.230
And uh not that I particularly care, but
00:56:38.240 --> 00:56:41.270
you know, it's nice when
00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:45.030
something happens. I've started to think
00:56:45.040 --> 00:56:48.789
there are shows I'd like to do that I
00:56:48.799 --> 00:56:52.870
know for a fact nobody cares about. And
00:56:52.880 --> 00:56:55.190
maybe Friday nights are the nights to do
00:56:55.200 --> 00:56:57.829
those. Uh so maybe there'll be a show
00:56:57.839 --> 00:56:59.349
tomorrow night, maybe there won't. There
00:56:59.359 --> 00:57:00.870
will definitely be a show on Saturday
00:57:00.880 --> 00:57:03.349
and there will definitely be a show on
00:57:03.359 --> 00:57:05.109
Sunday.
00:57:05.119 --> 00:57:09.589
You know,
00:57:09.599 --> 00:57:11.430
really loved listening to Paul Harvey
00:57:11.440 --> 00:57:14.789
because when I when when his show would
00:57:14.799 --> 00:57:17.670
come on, he was so good at finding
00:57:17.680 --> 00:57:20.789
interesting stories. Then I knew deep
00:57:20.799 --> 00:57:21.589
down
00:57:21.599 --> 00:57:23.910
>> we're GONNA SLING IT AROUND.
00:57:23.920 --> 00:57:28.390
>> YEAH, I knew that for sure.
00:57:28.400 --> 00:57:31.030
for sure.
00:57:31.040 --> 00:57:33.589
And if and if Paul Harvey had one of
00:57:33.599 --> 00:57:36.230
those fill-in hosts,
00:57:36.240 --> 00:57:37.589
you know, the first thing you would
00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:40.710
think is that's a tough one, pal. That's
00:57:40.720 --> 00:57:47.109
a tough one. you know, um, Dup says, uh,
00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:49.750
his her math teacher's favorite number
00:57:49.760 --> 00:57:51.670
was two
00:57:51.680 --> 00:57:57.270
on 220 2022, which would be February
00:57:57.280 --> 00:58:01.750
2nd, uh, sorry, February 22nd, 2022. So
00:58:01.760 --> 00:58:03.510
many of his former students sent him
00:58:03.520 --> 00:58:05.990
Christmas gifts. It was awesome. Sounds
00:58:06.000 --> 00:58:08.390
like a beloved teacher,
00:58:08.400 --> 00:58:12.150
you know.
00:58:12.160 --> 00:58:15.030
Saturday and Sunday. What time? Let's
00:58:15.040 --> 00:58:20.309
call it
00:58:20.319 --> 00:58:22.150
um
00:58:22.160 --> 00:58:31.190
let's call it 300 p.m. Eastern.
00:58:31.200 --> 00:58:33.430
Sorry, let's call it 4:00 p. p.m.
00:58:33.440 --> 00:58:34.950
Eastern.
00:58:34.960 --> 00:58:37.349
4:00 p p.m. Eastern. Let me write that
00:58:37.359 --> 00:58:42.870
down real quick.
00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:45.510
Unless you like it sooner.
00:58:45.520 --> 00:58:48.390
I could do it then, too.
00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:51.030
Um,
00:58:51.040 --> 00:58:53.910
when I found out people did not like his
00:58:53.920 --> 00:58:55.670
integrating the commercials into the
00:58:55.680 --> 00:58:57.190
show, I could not believe it. I thought
00:58:57.200 --> 00:58:59.430
that was one of the coolest things about
00:58:59.440 --> 00:59:01.349
this show. I mean, I I just sitting
00:59:01.359 --> 00:59:02.069
there going,
00:59:02.079 --> 00:59:04.230
>> "Whoa, whoa, wait, wait, wait. concerned
00:59:04.240 --> 00:59:07.109
about the number
00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:08.950
what
00:59:08.960 --> 00:59:12.950
stop what what
00:59:12.960 --> 00:59:16.230
>> I know and if I had heard that criticism
00:59:16.240 --> 00:59:18.870
and I was Paul Harvey
00:59:18.880 --> 00:59:19.750
I would have said
00:59:19.760 --> 00:59:21.589
>> do any of you know what the hell I do
00:59:21.599 --> 00:59:26.230
for a living
00:59:26.240 --> 00:59:28.309
>> and one thing I know that Paul Harvey
00:59:28.319 --> 00:59:30.549
would never have said on the air which I
00:59:30.559 --> 00:59:32.549
say all the time and that IS
00:59:32.559 --> 00:59:35.510
>> I AM THE GOD OF HELLF FIRE AND I BRING
00:59:35.520 --> 00:59:41.270
YOU FIRE.
00:59:41.280 --> 00:59:44.069
>> YEAH. YEAH. YEAH. If you guys want an
00:59:44.079 --> 00:59:45.990
earlier or later show on Saturday and
00:59:46.000 --> 00:59:47.190
Sunday, let me know. I'm kind of trying
00:59:47.200 --> 00:59:49.829
to feel out. I think I used to do it at
00:59:49.839 --> 00:59:53.190
2 o'clock Eastern.
00:59:53.200 --> 00:59:55.030
And if that tell me if that's a better
00:59:55.040 --> 00:59:56.630
time
00:59:56.640 --> 00:59:58.390
because I got no problem doing it then.
00:59:58.400 --> 01:00:00.470
kind of gets it out of the way because 2
01:00:00.480 --> 01:00:03.510
o'clock Eastern for me is noon on
01:00:03.520 --> 01:00:05.910
Saturday and Sunday, which is plenty
01:00:05.920 --> 01:00:07.589
late enough for me to get a show
01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:09.829
together.
01:00:09.839 --> 01:00:14.069
Plenty.
01:00:14.079 --> 01:00:17.430
So, just let me know.
01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:18.950
You know what? I'm going to change that
01:00:18.960 --> 01:00:23.109
right now. 2:00 p.m. Eastern.
01:00:23.119 --> 01:00:26.069
2 PM. If not, I'll get lazy and sit
01:00:26.079 --> 01:00:29.190
around and to rush it and stuff. So, 2
01:00:29.200 --> 01:00:31.510
PM Eastern time. What do we got on the
01:00:31.520 --> 01:00:38.789
list here? Uh,
01:00:38.799 --> 01:00:41.670
on Saturday, our show will be about the
01:00:41.680 --> 01:00:43.430
Thunderbirds.
01:00:43.440 --> 01:00:46.789
Oh, man. Thank you, Dupa, for your

I'll play that as many times as you want
01:00:58.160 --> 01:01:00.630
because it's one of my favorites, too.
01:01:00.640 --> 01:01:04.150
Uh, here we go.
01:01:04.160 --> 01:01:06.630

Be happy to give you the sound file.
01:01:13.920 --> 01:01:18.710
>> We're gonna sling it around.

Okay. 2:00 p.m. Eastern. On uh Saturday,

about Julia Child's.
01:01:32.079 --> 01:01:35.349
And on uh
01:01:35.359 --> 01:01:37.270
Sunday it will be about the
01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:39.270
Thunderbirds.
01:01:39.280 --> 01:01:43.589
The Thunderbirds I say unto thee. Zelipa
01:01:43.599 --> 01:01:45.670
says, "Yay."
01:01:45.680 --> 01:01:48.470
Let me see here. We will be doing May
01:01:48.480 --> 01:01:51.190
West for you. Uh Zelipa. Yes. And I got
01:01:51.200 --> 01:01:53.990
to thank Zelipa. She was the one that uh
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:55.910
was very enthusiastic about this Paul
01:01:55.920 --> 01:01:59.589
Harvey show. So thank you to Zelipa, our
01:01:59.599 --> 01:02:02.069
listener. Let me see here. I got to I
01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:03.349
got to make sure I haven't done the
01:02:03.359 --> 01:02:06.309
Thunderbirds before.
01:02:06.319 --> 01:02:09.109
I don't think I have. Pretty sure I
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:11.510
have. I'm now to the point and we are
01:02:11.520 --> 01:02:16.470
approaching I think 700 shows and that
01:02:16.480 --> 01:02:18.549
doesn't include the ones that I've taken
01:02:18.559 --> 01:02:20.870
off of YouTube. So, we're approaching
01:02:20.880 --> 01:02:23.670
700 shows and I it's to the point now
01:02:23.680 --> 01:02:26.630
where I
01:02:26.640 --> 01:02:28.630
talk about so many things that I can't
01:02:28.640 --> 01:02:32.069
remember whether I did an actual full
01:02:32.079 --> 01:02:34.549
show on it.
01:02:34.559 --> 01:02:37.750
Also, YouTube's way of measuring views
01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:40.789
has just gone absolute baddy the last
01:02:40.799 --> 01:02:43.349
week, which really
01:02:43.359 --> 01:02:47.030
singes my drawers.
01:02:47.040 --> 01:02:49.109
That really singes my drawers. No, we
01:02:49.119 --> 01:02:52.630
haven't done the Thunderbirds. So,
01:02:52.640 --> 01:02:55.829
so what we're going to do is we're going
01:02:55.839 --> 01:02:59.190
to do Julia Child's
01:02:59.200 --> 01:03:02.069
on Saturday.
01:03:02.079 --> 01:03:05.430
Wait a minute.
01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:08.309
Wait a minute here. It doesn't make any
01:03:08.319 --> 01:03:11.109
sense because then we got two people
01:03:11.119 --> 01:03:13.190
that were doing backtoback. Now, now I'm
01:03:13.200 --> 01:03:17.190
in a quandry because I usually do a TV
01:03:17.200 --> 01:03:22.230
show show on Sunday.
01:03:22.240 --> 01:03:24.710
But if I do Julia Child and I don't do a
01:03:24.720 --> 01:03:27.349
show Friday, then we'll do two people
01:03:27.359 --> 01:03:29.190
back toback. And I don't like to do two
01:03:29.200 --> 01:03:33.829
TV shows or two people backtoback.
01:03:33.839 --> 01:03:37.190
What's a boy to do? Dupa says, "Lipa, I
01:03:37.200 --> 01:03:45.829
agree." Yay. I I um
01:03:45.839 --> 01:03:48.950
I'll figure it out. I I'll do another
01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:52.230
I'll do a crazy show tomorrow night and
01:03:52.240 --> 01:03:54.710
that'll mean I don't do two people back
01:03:54.720 --> 01:03:57.990
to back. And then I'll do Julia Child on
01:03:58.000 --> 01:04:00.309
Saturday and I'll do the Thunderbirds on
01:04:00.319 --> 01:04:02.549
Sunday. There we go.
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:04.789
Now I got to find a crazy ass story. I
01:04:04.799 --> 01:04:06.870
tell you what, people like that great
01:04:06.880 --> 01:04:10.309
stink story I did.
01:04:10.319 --> 01:04:17.270
Uh, people enjoyed that. Um,
01:04:17.280 --> 01:04:21.270
they really enjoyed the great stink.
01:04:21.280 --> 01:04:23.750
The people of London didn't. Kalera is
01:04:23.760 --> 01:04:27.589
no fun. Hey everybody.
01:04:27.599 --> 01:04:29.270
um
01:04:29.280 --> 01:04:31.670
be here this weekend when
01:04:31.680 --> 01:04:33.750
>> we're going to sling it around.
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:37.990
>> Oh, you betcha.
01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:39.990
Good old Norm Hitchkas. I should try to
01:04:40.000 --> 01:04:43.589
get Norm Hitchkas on the show. He's
01:04:43.599 --> 01:04:45.510
quite a guy.
01:04:45.520 --> 01:04:49.829
Uh quite a fella he is. Anyway, um hey,
01:04:49.839 --> 01:04:55.430
you know what? Tomorrow's uh show,
01:04:55.440 --> 01:04:58.630
I'll do a Streamyard show where I open
01:04:58.640 --> 01:05:00.549
the link
01:05:00.559 --> 01:05:03.910
or I put the link in the chat and uh
01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:09.670
we'll make it about something.
01:05:09.680 --> 01:05:12.950
You know what we could do tomorrow?
01:05:12.960 --> 01:05:16.150
We could do
01:05:16.160 --> 01:05:21.029
Maryanne or Ginger.
01:05:21.039 --> 01:05:26.309
That might be kind of fun.
01:05:26.319 --> 01:05:33.270
You know what?
01:05:33.280 --> 01:05:35.510
Let's do that. Maryanne or Ginger
01:05:35.520 --> 01:05:38.950
tomorrow night. I'll put the link in
01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:41.270
and uh we can come to some sort of
01:05:41.280 --> 01:05:45.430
conclusion on that uh hotly debated uh
01:05:45.440 --> 01:05:47.029
topic.
01:05:47.039 --> 01:05:49.349
All right, kids.
01:05:49.359 --> 01:05:51.829
I'm looking at that. Oh, Norm Hitzka is
01:05:51.839 --> 01:05:54.150
on the show. Yeah, Dupa. You'd like
01:05:54.160 --> 01:05:56.230
that, wouldn't you? I bet you he's he's
01:05:56.240 --> 01:05:57.829
hard to get a hold of unless you've
01:05:57.839 --> 01:06:00.470
known him. I've met him and things. I
01:06:00.480 --> 01:06:02.230
don't think he would know who I am,
01:06:02.240 --> 01:06:05.829
actually. But, um,
01:06:05.839 --> 01:06:08.950
I could always try to contact him.
01:06:08.960 --> 01:06:10.470
Uh,
01:06:10.480 --> 01:06:12.069
that would be a hell of an interview,
01:06:12.079 --> 01:06:14.309
I'll tell you that. Sleeper says, "I
01:06:14.319 --> 01:06:17.270
still got to catch the great stink."
01:06:17.280 --> 01:06:20.870
Oh boy, that's that's it's it's uh
01:06:20.880 --> 01:06:23.910
stinky. Uh Kendo says Maryanne all day
01:06:23.920 --> 01:06:26.230
long. Hey, that's don't break the seal
01:06:26.240 --> 01:06:29.430
yet.
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:31.349
Anyway,
01:06:31.359 --> 01:06:33.910
uh yeah, we'll we'll talk Maryanne
01:06:33.920 --> 01:06:37.829
versus Ginger. We I could instead of
01:06:37.839 --> 01:06:39.430
that one. No, no, we'll save it for
01:06:39.440 --> 01:06:41.670
later. And then after that, maybe next
01:06:41.680 --> 01:06:45.510
Friday, we'll do
01:06:45.520 --> 01:06:49.589
Jennifer Marlo or Bailey Quarters.
01:06:49.599 --> 01:06:52.630
The answer is Bailey, by the way. Uh,
01:06:52.640 --> 01:06:55.190
yeah. So, those two Friday nights,
01:06:55.200 --> 01:07:00.309
>> we're gonna sling it around.
01:07:00.319 --> 01:07:02.470
>> I love Norm Hitchkas more than anything
01:07:02.480 --> 01:07:05.349
on this earth. Anyway, with all that
01:07:05.359 --> 01:07:07.990
being said, I think the only thing left
01:07:08.000 --> 01:07:09.829
to say
01:07:09.839 --> 01:07:12.470
is I wonder if the wolf is still here so
01:07:12.480 --> 01:07:15.990
that he knows we're doing Julia Child on
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:18.309
uh
01:07:18.319 --> 01:07:20.230
Saturday.
01:07:20.240 --> 01:07:22.710
He's a big Julia Child fan. So am I. She
01:07:22.720 --> 01:07:25.910
was a spy. All right, all that being
01:07:25.920 --> 01:07:27.589
said, I think there's only one thing
01:07:27.599 --> 01:07:29.430
left to say. Why am I frozen? Now I'm
01:07:29.440 --> 01:07:33.109
unfrozen. Uh, and that is till next
01:07:33.119 --> 01:07:35.510
time. Wait, what do we got in the
01:07:35.520 --> 01:07:37.190
Marannne and Ginger is equal to Mad
01:07:37.200 --> 01:07:40.150
Men's Joan and Peggy?
01:07:40.160 --> 01:07:43.190
That that's not even a contest.
01:07:43.200 --> 01:07:46.390
Joan and Peggy. Uh, I think the only
01:07:46.400 --> 01:07:49.109
thing left to say is
01:07:49.119 --> 01:07:53.270
till now this buffering and everything
01:07:53.280 --> 01:07:56.630
else. Uh, the only thing left to say is
01:07:56.640 --> 01:08:00.630
till next time.
01:08:00.640 --> 01:08:03.190
We'll see you next time.
01:08:03.200 --> 01:08:05.270
Good day.
01:08:05.280 --> 01:08:25.990
Adios, muchachos.
01:08:26.000 --> 01:08:29.749
There's a room with a restless air.
01:08:29.759 --> 01:08:33.349
Voices rising everywhere.
01:08:33.359 --> 01:08:36.630
Most fall wide or miss their mark till
01:08:36.640 --> 01:08:40.950
one cuts through and stops the spark. No
01:08:40.960 --> 01:08:44.950
long road, no winding tail. Just the
01:08:44.960 --> 01:08:47.910
right thoughts set to sail. The room
01:08:47.920 --> 01:08:52.149
goes still for half a beat. Then the
01:08:52.159 --> 01:08:55.349
band comes in complete.
01:08:55.359 --> 01:08:58.390
>> That's the point, my pal. You saw it
01:08:58.400 --> 01:08:58.950
land
01:08:58.960 --> 01:09:02.630
>> right in time with a swing of the band.
01:09:02.640 --> 01:09:05.669
>> That's the point, my dear. You saw it,
01:09:05.679 --> 01:09:06.309
too.
01:09:06.319 --> 01:09:09.990
>> Tom Gully. Yeah, he's pointing at you.
01:09:10.000 --> 01:09:13.510
>> That's the point, my pal. You saw it.
01:09:13.520 --> 01:09:17.269
>> Right in time with a swing of a band.
01:09:17.279 --> 01:09:20.309
>> That's the point, my dear. You saw it,
01:09:20.319 --> 01:09:23.269
too. Tom Gully. Yeah, he's pointing at
01:09:23.279 --> 01:09:28.149
you. Some press hard just to be heard.
01:09:28.159 --> 01:09:32.470
Dressing noise up into words. But Mr.
01:09:32.480 --> 01:09:37.189
Gully lifts a hand and the room falls in
01:09:37.199 --> 01:09:39.269
with a band.
01:09:39.279 --> 01:09:43.349
No flourish, nothing grand, just a
01:09:43.359 --> 01:09:46.229
thought to understand.
01:09:46.239 --> 01:09:49.990
When the rhythm nods along,
01:09:50.000 --> 01:09:53.910
you know you've landed something strong.
01:09:53.920 --> 01:09:56.870
>> That's the point, my pal. You saw it
01:09:56.880 --> 01:09:57.350
last
01:09:57.360 --> 01:10:01.110
>> right in time with a swing of the band.
01:10:01.120 --> 01:10:04.149
>> That's the point, my dear. You saw it,
01:10:04.159 --> 01:10:04.790
too.
01:10:04.800 --> 01:10:08.390
>> Tom Gully. Yeah, he's pointing at you.
01:10:08.400 --> 01:10:11.990
>> That's the point, my pal. You saw it.
01:10:12.000 --> 01:10:15.669
>> Right in time with a swing of the band.
01:10:15.679 --> 01:10:18.790
That's the point, my dear. You saw it,
01:10:18.800 --> 01:10:19.430
too.
01:10:19.440 --> 01:10:22.709
>> Tom Gully. Yeah, he's pointing at you.
01:10:22.719 --> 01:10:26.630
Trumpets rise, the rhythm swells.
01:10:26.640 --> 01:10:30.709
Sex is knowing time and tells. Every
01:10:30.719 --> 01:10:34.550
note knows when to stand and when to
01:10:34.560 --> 01:10:36.800
leave
