  • “ELEANOR PARKER: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 9/01/25 (103)
    EPISODE 103 - “ELEANOR PARKER: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 9/01/25 This week, we celebrate our Star of the Month: the extraordinary ELEANOR PARKER. Known as “the woman of a thousand faces,” Parker built a remarkable career defined by range, subtlety, and strength. From her Oscar-nominated turn as a wrongly imprisoned woman in Caged, to her quietly powerful presence as the Baroness in The Sound of Music, she consistently defied typecasting and brought nuance to every role. But behind the glamour was a private, fiercely independent woman whose legacy has too often been overlooked in Hollywood history. Join us as we dive deep into the life, career, and enduring mystique of Eleanor Parker—a star who truly deserves to be remembered.

  • “TALKIES, GANGSTERS, & BUGS BUNNY: THE WARNER BROTHERS JOURNEY” - 8/25/25 (102)
    EPISODE 102 -  “TALKIES, GANGSTERS, & BUGS BUNNY: THE WARNER BROTHERS JOURNEY” - 8/25/25 In this week’s episode, we’re turning the spotlight on the incredible journey of the Warner brothers—Harry, Albert, Sam, and Jack—four ambitious siblings who rose from modest immigrant roots to create one of the most influential movie studios in the world: Warner Bros. Studios. Their story begins in the early 20th century, with a hand-cranked projector and a traveling film show, and evolves into a groundbreaking entertainment empire that would forever change the film industry. From their early struggles during the silent film era to their game-changing release of The Jazz Singer, in 1927, the first feature-length "talkie," the Warner brothers didn’t just adapt to change—they drove it. Join us as we trace the rise of Warner Bros., a studio born from risk, vision, and a relentless belief in the power of storytelling.   SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Warner Brothers: Hollywood’s Ultimate Backlot (2014), by Steven Bingen; Early Warner Brothers Studios (2010), by E.J.
