Thursday night in The Fred Bertelsen Old-Time-Radio Room

Joy Jackson indtroduces us to a wealthy man about town who leads a double life, fighting injustice. Is it Batman? Superman? Zorro? No, but the character that inspired all the super-heroes: The Scarlet Pimpernel. After that we ride with the greatest pirate of them all in Afloat with Henry Morgan.
Also played in the chatroom that night:
Joy read a couple of pages from Over Periscope Pond by Esther Sayles Root and Marjorie Crocker, having to do with soldiers blinded in world war I.
Dave McElroy played his dad’s v-disk from Jan 1945 recorded in Hawaii
Dave also shared a version of Remember Radio adapted and sung by some British artists, played on Fred Fielding’s show on the BBC. If anyone has the full copy of that version of the song, please let him know.
