Matt1: Hello SB & Hounder!
Rush: Sarabell and Hounder!

Rush: 5…
Rush: GO!!!
Matt1: Started right away
Rush: The Incomperable Charlie Chan.
Rush: Yes, matt!
Rush: Organ music this time!
Rush: Love it!
Rush: So, this is probably 1945.
Rush: From this message we can tell.
sarabell2: I think it must have been so much fun to do a live radio program, back then. Terrifying, but fun.
Matt1: Buy war bonds
Rush: Agreed, SB!
Rush: And, YES, Matt!
mda19083: 10/01/1945
Rush: You found the date, MDA?
sarabell2: thank you mda
mda19083: on the download file
Rush: Then, this aired just AFTER the Japanese surrender!
hounder: it would have been hard no to be distracted by the folley guys
Matt1: <frogs>
Rush: “Student of occult matters.”
Rush: “House of death!”
Rush: Lee is blunt here!
Matt1: And, don’t call me Shirley!
Rush: 🙂
hounder: you’l find out what we believe when we’ve made up our minds
Rush: Nice voicing of Chan, IMHO.
Rush: Yes, Hounder!
Rush: .22 caliber gun.
Rush: “Apply further bit of knowledge to nostrils.”
sarabell2: i listened to one driving today, the voice actor was awful. This one is pretty good, I agree.
Rush: There are also AUSTRALIAN versions that we will ne hearing at some point!
sarabell2: Oh that is funny.
Rush: They attempt to use American accents!
sarabell2: So do we!
Rush: 🙂
Rush: Indeed!
Rush: I sense a “bump-off” coming before morning!
Rush: Another accuser!
Rush: AH! They accuse each other!
mda19083: Everybody has Charlie’s phone number
Rush: Seems so!
Rush: maybe the paper published it!
sarabell2: Its written above the pay phone
Rush: 🙂
Rush: Brighton, Brighton, and Corpse.
Rush: Killer!
hounder: let’s add breaking and entering to our poice detective
Matt1: Yikes!
mda19083: sounds like a law firm
Rush: Yes, but the killer exited before they could break and enter!
Rush: And shot at them!
Rush: I think that the date of this one has to be earlier than October of 1945.
Rush: I think that the people putting it online made a mistake, there.
Rush: A small gap there.
mda19083: perhaps 01/10/1945
Rush: Good bye…thank you…”
hounder: good start to case
Rush: That would be much more likely, MDA.
Rush: Ed Begley!
sarabell2: I do like these short programs
Rush: Me too!
sarabell2: I do not understand how Ed Begley had such a handsome son
Rush: I have a signed photo of Ed Begley as Chan.
Rush: You can see it at our Gallery.
Matt1: <clap-clap>
Rush: Yes, matt…TYSM!
sarabell2: Really I was just going to ask is it on your site

Dona: Hi M/M Phil
PaulM: evening
Phil & Mrs Phil: Aloha to all our Chan friends!
Rush: Seems that they used it to replace a ‘lost” title card and opening music sequence.
Rush: I have always thought that it looked a little “off.”
Nothere: Hey Phil type people.
Rush: The same with the closing…very abrupt!
Louise: Pry it, pry it!
Rush: hello, Phil and Mrs. phil!
Rush: Don’t ever breathhe tomb air!!!

Rush: See?
Matt1: <tin can>

Matt1: Great scene
Rush: Chan arrives vis biplane.
Rush: From Italy, perhaps?
Louise: Steampunk Charlie
Nothere: Ah Eat at Joes in hieroglyphics.
PaulM: hang on to your hat charlie

Nothere: What I spelled that right?
Rush: Yes, LOUISE!
hounder: especially in a puddle jumper
Rush: Dragoman.
Nothere: Behold the shoe of Snowshoes.
Rush: dragoman – A near eastern interpreter, agent, or guide for travelers. Dragoman: “I best dragoman in Luxor!”
Matt1: Snowshoes!
Rush: Enter Snowshoes…
mda19083: there goes the hat
Rush: Yes!
sarabell2: Chan did not lose it on a biplane but lost it on the ground?
Rush: No…came loose as he toppled from that donkey!
hounder: id there no place where you ain’t
Rush: Nice line!
Phil & Mrs Phil: The best line in the movie.
Phil & Mrs Phil: IMHO
Nothere: He was worried about losing it on the plane. Sort of why 90% of accients happen at home.
Rush: Perhaps an “in-joke” there?
Louise: So that fortune teller in Mississippi was correct
Rush: Seems so…
Rush: Stepin Fetchit…Lincoln Perry, was the first black actor to become a millionaire.
Rush: And, in the ’30s, a MILLION was SOMETHING!
Louise: Was he accepted in Hollywood society, Rush?
Dona: i bet so
Rush: Nice “flivver.”
Rush: Not sure about that, Louise.
Louise: Barry, if I remember, is wacky
Nothere: Now those are doorways.
Louise: Another ghoul butler
Rush: I see that Perry was good friends with Will Rogers…
Godwinshelley3 has joined this room
Louise: Archaeology does not pay
Dona: Hi GS
Louise: Hi GS

Rush: Yes, Louise.
Nothere: I always say this an shall again Rita Heyworth.
sarabell2: That is because you all are nice.
mda19083: you are a nice group of people

Rush: And it is great to see you, Dona, and everyone else each week!
sarabell2: I did not recognize Rita Hayworth, but I did wonder why that man was hanging around that anemic blonde when that bodacious native girl was there.
Rush: Yes, Hounder!
Rush: That would be, I believe, a floroscope?
Louise: open it!
Rush: Chan could probably also smell the fresh varnish!
hounder: yes rush. they used to use flouroscopes ti size shoes
Rush: YES!
Louise: I remember the shoe size thing
Rush: It wasn’t a great idea!
Nothere: I think he mummy’s insurance might have run out.
Rush: Arabic with a Southern U.S. accent there!
Rush: “Smile”
Rush: THIN neck!
hounder: somehow i doubt 3 men could have shifted that heavy wood sarcauphagus
Rush: Yes, Hounder!
Louise: a bullet
Rush: Especially if they wanted to preserve an ancient artifact!
Louise: gotta call the FBI back
Nothere: It’s Ameti Bowler hat, zoot suit, bullet. Totally ancient Egyptain.

Nothere: Graon!
Nothere: Groan even
Rush: Nice sets!
Louise: Lots of casual drug use
Nothere: You gotta wonder about those doorways though.
Rush: Dr. Arnold never knew he’d become a mummy someday!
Rush: One of the “New Adventures of Charlie Chan” episodes has a similar situation of a mummified victim!
Nothere: So does this guy know Reinfield?
Rush: Cousin, perhaps!
Louise: Yes, Renfield’s other brother
Rush: 🙂
Louise: So many odd brothers in these movies
Rush: Pathetic person.
Phil & Mrs Phil: I could swear he shows up in a movie called “When Worlds Collide” in a brief scene.
Dona: I have never understood the door situation in this movie
Dona: why even have a door with holes in ti
Rush: This actor?
Dona: it
Phil & Mrs Phil: Yeah, the brother.
Rush: CC gathers clues.
Rush: HM!
Rush: I can check…
Louise: When Worlds Collide: good movie
sarabell2: Dona, they always shut those doors to have a private conversation
Dona: lol
Phil & Mrs Phil: The actor who plays Dr. Racine in this movie also played a Dr. in “The Invisible Man.”
Rush: James Eagles. His last movie was in 1950. Not in “When Worlds Collide.” he was in a Flsah Gordon series.
Phil & Mrs Phil: TYSM Rush
Rush: It’s always ibnteresting to check up on Chan actiors!
Rush: I love seeing them in other movies!
mda19083→PaulM: imdb says he was in CC at the Racetrack
Phil & Mrs Phil: But Frank Conway showed up in “The Day the Earth Stood Still.”

mda19083: TYSM
Rush: BANG! BANG!!!
Rush: Size 52.
Rush: XXXL?
Phil & Mrs Phil: Which brings to mind..where is Charlie’s luggage?
Rush: Good question!
mda19083: he travels light
sarabell2: Still on the donkey

MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: Phils: please pack my Old Kit Bag when thr time comes?
Rush: This is what they used to create the opening music for this movie.

Rush: Yes, hounder!
DanVenture: I can’t get my garage door to open after just 10 years without help.

MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: That cat had guts.
Rush: 🙂
Rush: Indeed, Angel!
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: tys, rush!
Rush: Nayda’s job is very vague!
Louise: SIZZLE
Rush: Interesting flame.
Phil & Mrs Phil: Charlie Chan’s Glass Blowing shop.
DanVenture: I enjoy seeing Chan demonstrate his skills.
Dona: i don’t like it when they kick Chan out
mda19083: CC does it all
Rush: Maybe her job description is: deliver messages.
Louise: Blame Chan
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: Rush: just a year earlier her job was VOGUE. Cover girl Feb ’37, in the trash heap per Miss Vreeland September!
Phil & Mrs Phil: Ah..Charlie just said “..two bullets in chest..”
Rush: AH! Explains everything, Angel!
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: I’m ordering a FEZ DISPENSER.
Rush: “His Excellency” is not all that excellent.
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: Is it Tetragene yet¿
Rush: This method of killing appears in another Chan film.
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: I use Texaco Fire Chief.
Phil & Mrs Phil: Actually, the glass resonates to the violin string’s vibration.
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: Which murderer ?
Rush: As seen in “Docks of New Orleans.”
MonsieurAngel avec Ze Fox: would have loved for Jack Benny to have skirted this.
Phil & Mrs Phil: Egg Fu Omlett
