  • Alan The Lad
    May 6 2025
    This time round, I'm paying tribute to one of Old Hollywood's most remarkable character actors - the wonderful Alan Mowbray - and his appearance in two films, in which he played the very same character... Elsewhere, who knew there was a board dedicated to the survival of cupcakes? We're dropping in with the What's My Line gang for another round of Who The Hell Is That Hollywood Legend? And radio entertainment comes courtesy of a very special one-off adaptation of one of history's greatest humorists!

  • Very Good Girls
    Apr 6 2025
    It's spring time, and we're celebrating in the company of some great ladies - Ginger Rogers in a reverse-Cinderella tale set in the opulent world of Park Avenue, and Claire Dodd turning the tables on a gang of conmen trying their best to influence her love life! There's also a sad note in the air as we say a fond farewell to another grand old lady. Radio entertainment comes this time from the Lux Radio Theatre!

I listen to about 60 regular podcasts while I work, some are really good, but few are even half as good as this podcast. it is genuinely repeat worthy entertainment, with historical insite into Hollywood in its prime.

More talent than a BBC production.

Great podcast for people who love the Golden Age of Hollywood or who want to know more. Amusing old time adverts, radio plays and a host who seems to love what he is doing. My goto podcast for those times when I just want to escape the modern world for a while and be entertained.

For Golden Memories
