Episode 18: Heavenly Creatures Jul 15, 2014

Show notes

This week, we’re in the arms of the angels…. Movieland was obsessed with them in the 1940’s, so we take a closer look at three prime examples of the afterlife, as seen in the movies ‘A Matter Of Life And Death’, ‘The Bishop’s Wife’, and ‘Here Comes Mr Jordan’. We’ll hear an urbane reaction to the first Film Club choice, as well as details of the newest addition. Vintage adverts come in the form of Skelly Men, Golden Whistles and Pepsi Cola (“Quiet, Kay”) The radio play was just too hard to decide upon this week, which led Adam to make a drastic decision… …and REVEALED! The name and subject of the next special, due in just a few episodes time…

Episode 17: Who Is Number Fifteen? Jul 08, 2014

Show notes

Welcome back, everyone! Forget your Ariana Grandes and your Miley Cyruseses, why didn’t the ‘Spry’ song ever permeate the national consciousness? Not only that, but it’s ‘Summer Money Time’, a time to be consistently interrupted. Adam deals out lashings of High-Octane 80’s-High-Fives to all the good folk who’ve been making his days lately, and the Sexist Advertisement Klaxon once again rears its politically incorrect head. What’s the most inappropriate radio show that a “Just Right Sweet” sugar coated treat could possibly be linked to? Join ‘The Attaboy Clarence Film Club’ and sound off, damn you. Plus, reviews of the nail-biting noir-thriller ‘The Woman In The Window’, the Cagney comedy ‘The Irish In Us’ (O’HARA), a horribly disappointing version of Edgar Allan Poe’s ‘The Black Cat’, and James Stewart’s first movie, ‘The Murder Man’. The radio play this week is an intriguing slice of mystery and drama, entitled ‘Libel’, from the Lux Radio Theatre, so turn the volume up, and settle back in for the just right sweet return of The Attaboy Clarence Podcast!
