- A February 22, 1955 issue of Look, and the cover photo of MGM stars, Debbie Reynolds and husband Eddie Fisher, trigger memories of my years at the Hollywood studio. This episode includes the old-time radio broadcast of Orson Welles in The Black Museum. Bing Crosby sings Young at Heart. At 40:21, I begin sharing memories of Mary Crosby, Bo Derek, Orson Welles, and bid goodbye to Sunday Stories announcer and dear friend, Jack Diamond.
Running time: 45:59

Thank you!
Thank YOU for letting me share my grandma's attic with you! God bless, Kathleen!
The old-time radio show ends at 49:21, if you want to skip on over to comments on Bing Crosby, his daughter Mary, Bo Derek and our farewell to Sunday Stories announcer and dear friend, Jack Diamond. He believed so much in what this channel is attempting to do - bring you good memories and pleasant entertainment. Thanks for listening! God bless!
No coincidence that people were rarely over weight back in the day. Fast food gained popularity since 1955- and processed fast food super size servings began in the mid 1990’s. Sad.
That picture just jumped out at me. Makes you stop and think, doesn't it? Thanks for coming by! Thanks, too, for leaving a comment. Really appreciate you!! God bless.
Oh, I do so love your channel. Hearing the stories of your meetings all the people I remember. Wasn't that clever of Bo Derek? After seeing her in movies I would have thought her to be a primadonna...nope just a wise and clever girl. Thanks for sharing that tidbit. I enjoyed the radio mystery story. As your dear friend Jack Diamond said...it took me on " the wings of imagination". Sorry for your loss of Jack. Take care, Esther. TFS
Hi Donna! Thanks for taking a listen. I appreciate that more than I can tall you. I wondered if it would sound like I'm trying to impress people, dropping names and all ... but I really do want to let people know the good things I learned about them. I was Production Coordinator on CHiPs and am eager to tell Erik Estrada stories that will surprise you - and warm your heart. Your note gave me encouragement, dear Donna. I started a new series that will be on the channel on Wednesdays, it's called Classic Radio Theater ... Academy Award winning movies broadcast on the radio with the stars of the films. The first one you'll hear is Shadow of a Doubt starring Joseph Cotton. Sure hope people like it. Let me know your thoughts? God bless!!
@@EstherLuttrellsSundayStories - I don't think you are name-dropping. These are your life stories and they are so interesting and enlighten us about the true and real personalities of those we all watched and enjoyed on TV and in movies. Oh my, would love to hear stories about Erik Estrada. Wasn't he a looker...be still my heart. Have a blessed evening.
@@EstherLuttrellsSundayStories - I do so like listening to the radio stories...they bring back so many memories. We listened to an old antique radio ( the one with the curved top...it was beautiful ) when I was young. It was down in the basement and I listened to it while washing clothes in a ringer washer... those were the days. I can still smell the detergent water...haha. In the winter we hung the laundry on clotheslines my dad put up. So see, You are bringing joy to my heart when you do the radio stories. I will be looking forward to Wednesdays.
What wonderful stories. Thank you for sharing.
Bless your heart! Thank YOU for listening, and for leaving a comment. Hope you come back and consider yourself family now! Have a great day! You surely brightened mine.
Thanks for Orson Wells...
