Happy Spooktacular!! Julian David Stone Talks About His Book, ITS ALIVE. It Tells The Story of The Making Of 1931 Frankenstein

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 09:29:08 -0500

I really like this show. I thought it's perfect for Spooky October Spooktacular. A Must after listening to this is watch the flick. It's fun to know all the behind the scenes info.

I speak to the fabulous Julian David Stone about his best selling book in film industry genre, It's Alive! It's a historical novel on the drama it took to finally get Frankenstein to the silver screen. Yes, it's a novel, but all people are real, and tons of great true info on all the peeps. The dialogue was added in to make it a great read. It's a lot of fun..Lots of good stuff on Bela and Boris. I also rediscovered via Julians book the word 'stout'. I had a lot of fun with Julian.

Thanks so much to Julian for being a guest on the show.

Mostly Thank You To You, The Listeners. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you!!

I Talk To Author Burt Kearns On His Book Lawrence Tierney: Hollywood’s Real-Life Tough Guy..Is Lawrence Bad To The Bone Or Just Misunderstood

Thu, 17 Nov 2022 13:04:31 -0500

I had a wonderful time talking to Burt about the Reel AND Real life tough guy Lawrence Tierney. Lawrence was a fascinating man, who could recite poetry, knew all the classics, and was a brawler with multiple arrests. Was he bad to the bone, just b b bad, or misunderstood? His career spanned decades, with lots of droughts in between. Grab a cup of joe, hot chocolate, a glass of vino, or your beverage of choice and have a listen to the story of this interesting dude..

I Speak To Brian Hannan From The Blog The Magnificent 60s About The Making Of The Misfits…Clark Gable And Marilyn Monroes Final Film..One more time!!

Wed, 19 Oct 2022 06:11:57 -0500

Here we go again!! Fingers crossed this posts everywhere. Its supposed to finally fixed.

I have sent this show out so many times. The fabulous Rachel emailed me that none of my shows had been loaded to other podcast hosting sites. If this goes through I will fill you in later. Thanks so much RACHEL!!!

show description

I found the delightful Brian while I was searching for info on a really creepy B flick, Stark Fear. When I found the blog I spent a couple hours reading Brian's reviews and behind the scenes info. I had watched the Misfits when I was much younger and did not like it. Now that I'm older, know more about the actors, and life I was deeply moved. Clark Gable thought it was his best film. Unfortunately, he died two weeks after filming at the age of 59. Lots of stuff on Marilyn and her marriage unraveling on the set, and on Montgomery Clift, who Marilyn famously said, was the only person she knew worse off than she was.

Brian is from Scotland and had issues with his microphone, but we were able to get his sound up.

Thanks so much to Brian, he's a sweetie. You can find his blog here

I Talk To Alexis Hunter About Her Book Being Reissued..Gorgeous Photo’s of She And Joi, And Dangerous Body Practices

Sat, 24 Sep 2022 11:57:18 -0500

My friend Alexis Hunter is back. Did I ever tell you we were really friends?? HA!!!!

Alex's book has been reissued with a new chapter and great pics of her and Joi. WE discuss the silicone injections that helped kill Joi, and the horrible face and body trends that have people running to unsavory "Doctors" and sometimes paying the ultimate price. Big Butts are in, are they now that Kim and Khloe Kardashian have had their butt implants removed?? Silicone and CEMENT are a few of the things that have been injected into women's bodies. Do sex symbols always have to have big breasts? Joi and other's certainly thought so, and were under the pressure for the biggest breasts.

We talk love, dangerous procedures, Alex having a true life after Joi died, which was fifty years ago.

It's fun and also serious about the lengths, mostly women go to, to have face and body beautiful.

I will post pic of cement lady on www.facebook.com/truestoriesoftinseltown

Thanks so much to Alex for being a wonderful guest. Her

Thanks mostly to my audience! Who loves ya? I do!!

I talk to Author Jerome Charyn About His Fiction/Non Fiction Book Big Red..Lots Of Rita Hayworth And Orson Welles Talk

Wed, 07 Sep 2022 11:45:09 -0500

I talk to Jerome Charyn, about his Book Big Red. Its fiction, but so much in non fiction. Our narrator is Rusty, a lesbian that just loves her some corduroy pants. Harry Cohn Asks Rusty to become Rita's private secretary, but really to spy on Orson and Rita. True talk about their marriage, the making of The Lady From Shanghai, renting Errol Flynn's boat, his feelings about Orson and Rita, and her unhappy marriage to her second husband. We also talk about Rita's early onset Alzheimers. So much good stuff. Book is fun and sad. Poor Rita.

We talked about Jeromes favorite movie..Citizen Kane, I don't agree that its the best, (I had to put up my dukes) but I don't know which movie is, its all relative..I personally HATE Gone With The Wind, and for a long time critics thought it was the best flick of all time.

Lots of Hollywood info and we never really got all the info on why Jerome does not think Classic Hollywood was "The Golden Age".

Thanks so much to Jerome. He was a delight.

Sloan and I talk about a mutual deceased dreamboat Tom Conway. Tom is indeed George Sanders brother, and people behind their backs called him the nice George Sanders. George was fab in all his films. No one played a better cad. There is barely any info on Tom, but we got some. He was always good in his films, even stinkers like The Bride Of The Gorilla..It's on YouTube..So have a listen and checkout some of Tom's films.

I Talk To Actor And Cardiologist Rico Simonini On Producing And Starring As Old Blue Eyes Himself In Film Frank And Ava

Thu, 07 Jul 2022 14:26:58 -0500

Yes, It's really Rico..Took a bit but it's worth it..

This is a great tale of a guy from Brooklyn, that wanted to be a DR. He moved to L.A. and became a cardiologist and ended up starring in Frank And Ava. You will love Rico...I love that name. He is adorable. We also talked about how playing an icon that everybody knows, and loves is not easy. I believe there is extra scrutiny put on the actor. Good listen.

You can catch Frank And Ava on Amazon Prime.

Our Stage Mother Is The Mother Rose Of Gypsy Rose Lee And Baby June AKA June Havoc..Was It Really Like The Movie And Broadway Show??

Sun, 26 Jun 2022 07:35:41 -0500

April and I talk Mother Rose. She was a pushy broad and they truly lived a gypsy lifestyle. Baby June who later became Dainty June ran away with a boy from the troupe at 13, we are not sure of real age. Mama June may have been involved in two murders, and definitely one attempted murder on Junes boy husband..Luckily the gun jammed..and there were no bullets or he would have been a goner. Very interesting lives these three women had, thanks to their tough tomato Mama. Our finale ends with Natalie Woods stage mom.

Thank you Deborah. We have had a great time doing this series. Thanks so much for suggesting it. You are the best!!

Fri, 10 Jun 2022 08:40:29 -0500

April was the bees knees taking us through Judy's horrible childhood, from the family being run out of TOWNS, because of her fathers indiscretions with teen boys. Ethel's unrelenting push to make Judy a star. I was kind of low key. I had no idea why. I took Advil before show because I wiped out. After podcast I discovered I took Advil PM by mistake. I'm surprised I wasn't snoring.

Thanks so much to April as always.

Our Next Stage Mother Is Shirley Temples Mom Gertrude...I think she was a beast...April thought not that beastly. What do you think??

Mon, 30 May 2022 13:27:15 -0500

On our stage mom series we get to Mrs Temple. She again wore the pants in the family. Mr Temple was besieged by women wishing he would plant his seed (so to speak) in their garden, so they could have their very own Shirley Temple to make a star. Gertrude was not too keen on the idea. Gertrude pushed her little trooper all the way. Shirley was precocious, how couldn't she be and was quite open about her adult co stars mistakes. Some of them wanted to slug her, but decided to wait until her eighteenth Birthday. Unsurprisingly, Shirley earned mucho dinero, also unsurprisingly it was pretty much gone when she hit the age to get it all. Another point to ponder..Is this a tale of a stage mother or a Shirley Bio..April and I debate. I just love April so much.

Thanks to my dear partner in crime, April VeVea. I loves you Baby!!

Sat, 21 May 2022 08:40:43 -0500

April and I talk Betty Grable Stage mother Lillian. Lillian had Betty enrolled in dance school at three. She was in talent shows, and God forbid she came in second. Lillian was one pushy broad that wanted stardom for herself (as most stage moms do) but pushed Betty to be a star.

Thanks so much to April for doing this series with me.

Stage Mom Number 2 Is Ginger Rogers Mother Lela. Lela Was Accomplished In Her Own Right, But It Was Truly All About Ginger..WEDDING CAKE MUST SEE!!!

Tue, 10 May 2022 14:01:58 -0500

First of all Happy Late Mom's day! I was at family reunion so no computer. Was supposed to post this Sunday..

April and I do part 2 of Stage Moms. Today we talk about Ginger Rogers mom Lela. She would do anything to make her daughter a star, and she did. Ginger as we all know was amazingly talented, she trusted her Lela and Lela was not only her mom, she was her BFF. That wasn't too great for any of Gingers 5 hubby's. Studio execs loathed her, and it's alleged the movie The Hard Way was based on Lela and Ginger. Ida Lupino starred as Joan Leslies big sister that will do anything to make sis a star...and she did.

The picture of Ginger and Lew Ayers in front of their wedding cake..I'll post.. RUN LEW, RUN. Their marriage lasted under two years. Lew thought three's a crowd and literally told her to back to Lela's home..

Again thanks to Deborah for the idea. Our final four are pretty rotten moms. Next up Betty Grable, then Shirley Temple, Natalie Wood, and Gypsy Rose Lee's mom, Rose Hovick..

Thanks to my partner in crime April. You are the best..

April VeVea And I Talk Stage Mothers. Some Were Pushy, But Still Loved By Their Daughters..Today We Talk Jean Harlows Mother Jean..

Sat, 30 Apr 2022 08:49:09 -0500

April and I are doing series on stage moms. Today we talk Jean Harlows Mother Jean. M Jean loved The Baby, but also wanted to be a star in her own right. It just didn't happen so the baby became a huge star and paid for all her moms bills and for her sleazoid stepfathers as well. Shouldn't a mooching step dad of a star look like a million in his fancy duds?? He certainly thought so. Compared to other stage Moms M Jean was a pussycat. Our later moms, not so much.

Thanks so much to Deborah that emailed me and suggested the topic.

Hope you enjoy.

Looking forward to George Stevens Jr. He wrote a fab book on his dad and his struggle to be his own person. He did that and so much more. He talks the peeps he met in Hollywood, then he made his way to Washington and discusses that. Book isn't out yet, but so well written and I read it whenever I could..

I Talk To Lance Lewman Producer, Director, And So Much More On his Musical Brilliance, All About Frances Farmer And Her Troubles. We had a Great Time.

Mon, 28 Mar 2022 12:08:06 -0500

Lance was fab, and I am so intrigued to see how this musical captures the life that was Frances. I heard a couple songs and they were amazing.

Lance was kind enough to offer my listeners a 25% discount. This is Off Broadway so the cost of tickets are not through the roof. If you are in the try state area, or visiting I'd check it out. All you have to do for discount is add TSOT...and its all set.

You can get tickets here

My Guest IsThe Wonderful Ruta Lee. We Talk Her Book, Consider Your Kissed. She is so fab. We talk Frank S , Twilight Zone And So Much More.

Wed, 09 Mar 2022 10:10:18 -0500

I talk to the warm, wonderful showbiz gal, Ruta Lee. Ruta wrote a book called Consider Your Ass Kissed..Love that title. Ruta and I taped this just after New Years But As you hear in the beginning we could not salvage the first 6 minutes. Three different people tried but nope, so I am going to go ahead, they did what they could...Thanks guys.. without the missing minutes. The rest of our talk is great. She is a true show biz survivor and talks about some of the wonderful people and roles she had along the way.

This is Ruta talking about what this wonderful charity is. The whole website gives you loads of info.

http://thalians.org/from-ruta.html

You can buy Ruta's book anywhere book are sold.

https://www.amazon.com/Consider-Your-Ass-Kissed-Ruta/dp/1735383449/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3397VN9B8ITI1&keywords=ruta+lee+book&qid=1646838091&s=books&sprefix=Ruta+Lee%2Cstripbooks%2C77&sr=1-1

Her book is also on Kindle. As I said, reading it is like you are with a friend. Lots of great behind the scenes showbiz stuff and Ruta's fascinating and wonderful life.

Thanks so much to Ruta. I deeply apologize for the delay. I test everyone to see how they and we sound. Everyone thats been on my show would tell you that. Also when I start taping I keep an eye on the sound levels. All looked AOK but nope. I sent to one of the best guys in biz, he had lots on his plate but I finally got it back. It really is a fun listen and Ruta is a treasure.

Thanks most o all to my listeners. You are the best.

Much Love,

Grace

I Speak To John DiLeo On His Fab New Book..There Are No Small Parts..100 Outstanding Performances With Screen Time Of Ten Minutes Or Less..What If It’s Ten Minutes Plus 5 seconds...The Horror..

Fri, 04 Mar 2022 11:52:57 -0500

I talk to my pal John DiLeo. His new book is wonderful. It's amazing how little time these performers had on screen, but they make HUGE contributions to films. WE did about ten...starting with Elsa Lanchester in her appearance (and it wasn't even close to ten minutes and five seconds) in The Bride Of Frankenstein. It's an iconic role and that film and Elsa will go on forever. We talked some really wonderful performances. It was very hard for me to choose.

Thanks so much to the fab John. I always enjoy talking to him. His love and knowledge of movies is contagious.

Mostly thanks to the listeners.

Who Loves you,

Part 2 Author Dan Van Neste talks about his book The Magnificent Heel.The Life And Films Of Ricardo Cortez. Ricardo IRL seemed a bit of a heel and cad..Say it aint so..

Thu, 10 Feb 2022 12:25:32 -0500

I could not find this really big shew anywhere. Finally I got t off my old computer. YAY!. I give Dan lots of credit for this book. Ricardo was incredibly private, very unliked by most who acted with him and a very bad husband. I enjoyed the book and was surprised that he was a heel. Lets be fair...not always..but.. Like I said Dan did an amazing job putting this book together without not a lot of help from Hollywood Archives. Its a fascinating story of a mystery guy, who had dirty shirts in his closet..Not IRL..He was quite the fashion plate. January The Fabulous Kay Fwancis was star of the month on TCM. I DVR'd everyone of her films. She worked with Ricardo about four times. I guess she could stand him. Mandalay was my favorite film they made together. Ricardo was a total slime ball in this film. Its a must watch

Thanks so much to the fabulous Dan. I had fun yakking wit him.

Part 2 Boze Hadleigh Joins Me Once Again To Talk Elvis. Put On Your Blue Suede Shoes And Hear About The Later In Life Elvis.. Lots Of Fun

Wed, 08 Dec 2021 09:17:14 -0500

Boze has been on the show I believe three times. This is Boze's 28th book.. WOWSA. It's very good and lots of info on Elvis. Its quotes people who knew him in childhood, just starting out, becoming a sensation all the way through his death. I learned a lot of things I never knew. Yes, he shot guns at TV's, and had a very young Priscilla move in with him. One thing you can never take away from Elvis is that he is a legend, and no-one could ever be like him.

The book is

Elvis Forever: Looking Back on the Legacy of the King

Boze's author's page..So many great books.

I Talk To Fabulous Christina Lane, We talk A Bit About Her Book Phantom Lady, And I AskChristina One Of The Most Tough Questions About Noirvember and Betty Shaefer..

Sat, 27 Nov 2021 11:56:38 -0500

Christina was such a great guest. I wanted to ask her a few more questions about her book Phantom Lady:Hollywood Producer..The Forgotten Woman Behind Hitchcock. Its a wonderful book and lots of juicy tidbits.

Christina was a good sport, we talked some good girls of Noir, first up Ella Raines, next Betty Shaefer. The million dollar question I asked Christina was did she think Betty would go back to the sweet and actually non stiff, just the facts ma'am, Artie Greene. See what her answer is. We talked before we started and chose a couple extra people. Christina was game. It was a lot of fun.

Question to you all, I love Gloria Grahame as a bad girl, but in the film The Big Heat, she risked her life for Glenn Ford, got scalding coffee thrown in her face. For real, she saved the day. She asked GlennFord about his wife..Don't you dare ask me about my wife. You are not even worthy to use the word wife." Debbie gave her life. AS she was dying after she saved his butt, he started telling her about his wife...What a trooper. She was a good girl.

Check out Christina's author page. I can't recommend Phantom Lady enough.

Thanks so much to all of you for getting me noticed as one of the best old Hollywood podcasts. Funny, I was just thinking about rolling up my microphone. He changed my mind. He is the darling Matthew Chernov, and the article was written in Variety.

I TalkTo The Fab Robert Matzen About His Book Errol Flynn Slept Here. He Was A Peeper In Life, Was He A Peeper In Death..I

Thu, 18 Nov 2021 08:33:36 -0500

I loved this book. It talks about Errols great love for his home, his two way mirrors, his alcohol and drug addiction and his love for young chickypoo's. Of course we get into his statutory rape trial. He found his next girlfriend at the cigarette counter in the court house. She was the ripe old age of 18...LEGAL..

WE talk Errols horrible demise. Then Robert tells about the following two owners. One was a Christian music singer, that had tons of kids and grandchildren. His wife was a good Christian woman so she removed the bar...Horrors and put in an organ. They left and next owner was Rick Nelson. His daughter Tracy lived there for a time and said she saw Errol a lot...Of course, she was a young cutie. Rick died on New Years eve going to a gig in an airplane crash.

You will love the chapter on the paranormal happenings in the house. Truly spooky..

Thanks mucho, once again to Robert. He is always a great guest.

Most of all thanks to my listeners. I love you all!!

Put On Your Tap Shoes. Today The Fab John DiLeo and I Talk Broadway To Film. Marnie Nixon..Too Dub Or Not To Dub..

Tue, 02 Nov 2021 11:44:19 -0500

In the first minute nothing was edited but I guess the download did. SPOOOOOOOOKKKY.. Not much was missed except I explain I've done no musical shows because it's not my fave genre. Never Fear...John is here and he knows them all. We talk Broadway to Screen adaptations. Poor Julie Andrews lost two of her Broadway shows to Audrey Hepburn in MY Fair Lady, and Vanessa Redgrave in Camelot. WE talk dubbing, dueling A Star Is Born, Babs and much more. John chose the topic and he lead the pack and was so great. I learned a lot to.

Thank you to John. You are always Great.

Part 2 of Spooktacular. Stone And I talk Horror Movies From 60‘s, 70‘s and eighties. Our Recording Was Haunted...Really

Fri, 29 Oct 2021 08:20:40 -0500

Stone and I were merrily talking horror films. We had gone about 45:00 minutes. All of a sudden I see it only recorded 32.00 minutes. We had to go back to figure where to start off again. Then this piece of wire came out again. It has NEVER happened during one of my podcasts, let alone happen twice. I was on it right away. So I edited and hopefully it flows. Also when I listened, sentences where repeated almost on top of the regular sentence. Very Creepy. It was a spooky spooktacular taping. Stone and I were at it for over 2 and a half hours. I sound it. Sorry. Stone was drinking coffee so he sounded as perky as ever. He does his Peter Lorre impersonation, which is great but his Dracula is fab. I pronounced Stanley Kubrick like Stanley KEWWWWWbrick. Ugh.

Anyhow it was a spooky but fun spooktacular. Thanks so much to Stone for being so great. He is the best.

You can check out his books here.

It's Spooktacular 2021. I'm joined by fellow horror movie lover and my pal Stone Wallace. He joins in with spooktacular laughter and does A Fab Dracula...Bela of course..

We talk movies from the 20's, only two. Then the 30's, 40's and fifties.. I make an embarrassing confession.. I think Stone was secretly disgusted HA! The Wolfman and his clothes. Nostradamus, my mistake, Nosferatu..He was one scary MOFO. Stone tells his fave horror and so much more. WE are doing Spooktacular Part 2, talking about Scary movies from the 60's, 70's and eighties. Lots of good ones.

Author Robert Matzen And I Talk His Latest Book..Warrior...Audrey Hepburn..Son Luca Calls Her A Badass...She Was AMAZING/.

Tue, 19 Oct 2021 07:42:56 -0500

This is Robert's fourth time on the show and the fourth book we've discussed. His latest is Warrior...Audrey Hepburn is a great companion piece to Dutch Girl. Her son Luca called his mom a badass and wanted the world to know all the courageous and kind things she did as the Ambassador Of Unicef. She traveled war zones, met the starving populations of so many countries. During her final visit before she retired from Unicef she visited a place where ten people died in the time she was there. She watched a teen take his last breath. Throughout her years she was a force to be reckoned with. Fragile in size, but not in will, compassion and spirit. Yes, Audrey was more then a badass, she was a Warrior,

We also talk her movies after retirement, her marriages and her finally meeting her soulmate Robert Wolders (her Robbie)who was with Audrey every step of the way. She loved to laugh, have a drink and be in her beloved garden in Switzerland. She adored her sons. This book is a triumph to Audrey in every way. I loved her even more after reading this book.

Thanks so much to Robert for coming on the show again. You are so FAB!

Mostly, thanks so much to all my listeners. You are all the BEST!

Love youse all,

Grace

It‘s My New Season. WOO HOO!! My First Guest Of The Season Is The Fab Boze Hadleigh. WE Talk His New Book Scandals, Secrets And Swan Songs. No Goody Two Show stuff Here

Wed, 29 Sep 2021 13:28:15 -0500

I had the wonderful Boze Hadleigh bringing in my new Season. He is wonderful and I LOVED his book Scandals, Secrets, And Swan Songs. Boze has 101 chapters and they are little tidbits about the biggest classic Hollywood stars. We talk suicides, dying from dieting, accidents, murders. You name it Boze has it. This is Boze's 27th book. All his books are great, fun and juicy reading. We talk Tyrone Power, The closet, Monty Clift, Lou Costello, The Mauuuuuuvallous DAhhhling, Tallulah Bankhead. Is it true she had a love affair with Hattie McDaniel and so much more. I think we got to about 11 or twelve chapters so there are about ninety more interesting tales of Tinseltown.

I want to thank Boze for kindly consenting to be my first guest. He may have a new book out soon so I hope we will have another chat coming soon.. He has written so many wonderful books. This one is ultra fab!

Thanks Boze!!

Most of all I want to thank my wonderful listeners. You are the best!!

Our Summer Series Ends With La Liz Part 2. WE Get Into Burton, Warner, Larry Fortensky And Other Romances

Tue, 21 Sep 2021 09:50:18 -0500

Our Summer series is ovah. WE both had to postpone for various reasons but I'm posting the day before Fall. Woo Hoo!! April was a trooper because she was not feeling her best. If you notice I do a lot of the yakking, its because of April feeling Crappola.

WE talk Elizabeths life and loves. Her dedication the the Aids foundation. She remained friends with construction worker Larry Fortensky.. I liked him a lot, but the press was merciless. After Larry she never really had another big time romance. Richard Burtons widow asks "How can they be the love of each others when they divorced twice?" They were. Sally was married to Burton for less then a year.

Elizabeth Taylor was called the last of the great movie stars..She was that and so much more. There will never be anyone like her.

Thanks so much to April for cohosting the summer series. She's the cats meow and bees knees...GOOF alert!!

Hey everybody,

The Wonderful Ed Asner Died Today At The Age Of 91. This was done a few years ago. Ed was an absolute pussycat. We did get engaged, I'm still waiting on my engagement ring. I feel so grateful I got the chance to talk to ED. I hope you enjoy this.

I hope Ed is partying with MTM, Valerie Harper, Cloris Leachman and all the gang. He will never be forgotten. RIP sweet ED..

Thanks for listening.

Love you mucho,

Sultry Brunette Jane Russell Is Our Topic Of The Day.I Was Amazed At how Much Jane Spilled In Her Memoir

Sat, 21 Aug 2021 08:51:00 -0500

April and I talk Sultry Brunette's of Classic Hollywood. This time is our lovely full figured girl (playtex bra commercials)Jane Russell. She was discovered by Howard Hughes and her memoir is very honest. Juicy even. I give her major props on her book.

She talks abortion, infidelity and so much more..If the part about Jane and brief statement was not cut, it was in no way political or judgmental.

April is the best. I love her.

I Talk To FABU Joan Renner Of The Fabulous Blog Deranged LA Crimes. We Talk Clara Bows Court Date With Pal/Secretary. We end the rumors of Clara And Dogs

Fri, 13 Aug 2021 08:50:46 -0500

I absolutely loved Joan who has the fab blog Deranged LA Crimes:True 20th Century Tales Of Murder Mayhem, political corruption, and celebrity scandal.

We talked about Clara Bow and her secretary/friend..all I can say is with friends like Daisy DeVoe the more you like dogs. It was a scandal that hit the front page. This is when tales of Clara's romps with dogs and taking on the whole USC football team came into play. We learn where those slimy rumors started. Clara was a good trusting, down to earth person who had more then her fair share of horrible creeps in her life. Joan knows her stuff and it was so fun talking to her. I'm hoping for her to come back on soon with a hilarious Clark Gable scandal.

Thanks so much Joan!! You are the best.

Thanks to all the listeners.

Love you all,

Wed, 21 Jul 2021 14:50:47 -0500

April and I talk the beautiful, brainy, sultry brunette Hedy Lamarr. Hedy was a major sex symbol and inventor. She was six time married, a mom of three and quite an interesting person. WE talk truths and untruths about Hedy. One thing we know for sure..She didn't like women..and maybe Clark Gable sucked her toes.

Next week's sultry brunette is Lupe Velez AKA The Mexican Spitfire..

Thanks so much to April. She is fab.

I Talk ToThe Fab Sandy Grabman about Peggy Ann Garner and Sandy's Book Plain Beautiful. Big time Sad Life

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 15:57:13 -0500

I talk to the sweetest woman, Sandy Grabman about her book Plain Beautiful: The Life Of Peggy Ann Garner. Peggy had a pretty rough life. Since she was a child her mom was in and out of the slammer. Her whole life was Peggy and felt she was a star too. Peggy's incredibly tumultuous adulthood, drugs and alcohol, and her own daughter doing drugs at eight. Its a fabulous book, but a sad story.

Thanks so much to Sandy. She wrote the book 16 years ago, so she reread and we got the story together.

Sandy's Amazon page. Check out how cute she is. I truly loved her.

My guest is Tom Foran, son of The singing cowboy/dramatic actor Dick Foran and he watches one of his dads films..Black Legion costarring Bogie for the first time

Tue, 20 Apr 2021 10:27:18 -0500

When we did our other podcast, the movie Black Legion had been on TCM the week before. I asked Tom if he had seen it and hadn't. I asked if he would watch it and discuss, and he watched, and we discussed. It's based on a true story and there really was a Black Legion. This film is unfortunately forever topical. Strike fear in people and keep it up and hence you get groups like this. I can bet they had this since cavemen times. Differing Area's cave peeps spoke different grunts, their feet were bigger, who knows. There's aways someone different and people fearing them.

It's a fascinating watch. Bogart is very good and so adorably young as a regular Joe being convinced the foreigners, them, they, are coming for his job, his life style and the American way. He does a great job. He won an award as did the film. Dick Foran was very good and a cutie pie. Ann Sheridan was good also in one of her first films, before she became The Oooomph girl. They whole cast was a winner. It's a good watch, but it definitely is not Singing In The Rain.

On a lighter note we discuss Dick's singing cowboy career. Also, the fight to get Dick singing out on the trails before Gene Autry. Gene beat him to it. I was loving Dick's American Cowboy corral of choral singers. He had a whole posse of back up singers. I hope the bad guys didn't hear. ; )

It's interesting hearing what an actors son has to say about a movie his dad was in that he just discovered. Tom is a wonderful guest and you will enjoy him as much as I do. He is welcome anytime.

Thanks a zillion Tom. You are fab!! Baby Wyatt is majorly gorgeous.

Mostly, thanks to the audience. Life throws a lot at you sometimes. I'm a when it rains it pours kinda gal, but I come out swinging and stronger. I know you all can relate. Thanks for being so loyal and patient. I love you all!!

Wed, 14 Apr 2021 13:24:52 -0500

This is a new episode I've never put out. I had lots of editing via TCM rule. But I think it flows and Eddie of course is wonderful. I mistakenly call him The King of Noir..Czar, Grace, Czar!! He should be the king as well.

Eddie tells what he never wears. I was shocked I tell ya!!. We talk noir, shoes, Joan Crawford, is Eddie really Marcia Marcia Marcia, to his pal Ben M's Jan Brady?? All this and mucho more..

I want to thank my crush Eddie. He is the best, whether he is the Palooka of Noir, King of Noir or Czar of noir.

You can catch Eddie on Noir Alley every Sunday at midnight and it repeats Sunday AM at 10:00 AM.

Mostly thanks to my listeners. I love you guys..

My pal author John DiLeo and I talk They Was Robbed...Great actors that were NEVER nominated for an Academy Award. I think you will agree They Was Robbed!!

Tue, 30 Mar 2021 10:27:19 -0500

My pal author John DiLeo and I discuss stars from classic Hollywood that were never nominated for an academy award. I think you will be very surprised about some of the peeps we talk about. We also talk about "Special" Oscars and why are they given only when a person is near death, or in one case, dead.

Sit back with your fave beverage and see if you think They Was Robbed...

Thanks so much to John. I always love him on the show. It's always fun.

Mostly thanks to the listeners. You are the best..

I talk to Christina Lane about her fab book Phantom Lady:Hollywood Producer Joan Harrison The forgottenWoman Behind Hitchcock. She called him Hitchy..

Wed, 17 Mar 2021 10:03:23 -0500

I talked to Christina and it was fun and full of info I had never known. The book is fab, it has things you didn't know about Hitchy, and Alma and of course Joan. Hollywood being what it was/is there were whispers that Joan had gotten so far with Hitchy because she provided sexual favors. All I know is Joan was very talented and did a couple of films I really love like Phantom Lady and The Strange Affairs Of Uncle Harry. I found Christine when she was on Noir Alley with Eddie M. I ordered the book directly and loved it and set out to get Joan on the show. She is a delight, lots of fun behind the scene stuff too.

As a PS. I made a mistake about my beloved dulcet voiced Ronald Colman. I confused him with Charles Boyer. Ronald was first choice for the part of Maxim De Winter.

I really enjoyed finding out more about Joan. I know you will too.

I talk to Tom Foran, son of Dick Foran. Dick did many westerns as a whoop ee ti yi a singing cowboy. He was also know as the heartthrob of The B's

Sun, 31 Jan 2021 12:06:23 -0500

I so enjoyed my talk with Tom. We talked Dicks friendships with Jimmy and Duke...Henry Fonda and many others. Dick was in great flicks like Dangerous, The Petrified Forest and a good one for all to check out Black Legion. He did lots of films and television. Was Trigger a diva? Dick's costar horse Smokey, his character's name was Smoke. There was a terrible rivalry between Smokey and Trigger..PS Tom talked after the show about a not nice guy...I'll never tell..I promised..

Thanks so much to Tom.. You were fab. I had lots of fun.

I speak to Author Jeremy Arnold on his book The Essentials Vol. 2 : 52 More Must-See Movies and Why They Matter..We Talk Freaks, Cads and Andy Griffith as a demagogue..Lots of fun

Mon, 18 Jan 2021 13:08:00 -0500

I had a wonderful time talking about some of the movies Jeremy had chosen for his Essentials Volume 2. Sometimes you may wonder, "Why Oh Why, is this an essential"..Jeremy lets you know. This is from The TCM library but you can get it anywhere books are sold. Jeremy had already done Volume 1. The movies are great. These are movies that my comfort guy Robert Osborne chose, along with a coterie of guests hosts, Drew Barrymore, Alec Baldwin and Sally Field. After the death of Robert, Ben Mankiewicz still hosts the essentials today every Saturday night at 8 PM on TCM.

took over. Not only do we get Jeremy's thoughts we get snippets of Roberts and all the hosts. Its a fun read and there are a bunch of movies to check out.

I highly recommend book. Lots of great flicks to check out..

Thanks a zillion to Jeremy, he was fun and so knowledgable. He was patient with my digressions (who me?)

Part 2 I talk to Chris Korman about his book OMG..It’s Harvey Korman’s Son…Lots of fun and lots of great stories

Fri, 08 Jan 2021 11:18:09 -0500

Chris wrote a book that was a love letter to his dad. I enjoyed the book and talking to Chris especially. We discussed his learning disability. The great support he got from Harvey. Harvey never thought he was all that and a bag of chips. He had studied Classical theatre.. Many very big stars came up to Harvey such as Burt Lancaster, Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward and so many others telling Harvey how great he was and that they watched every Saturday night and they could never do what he does. Chris was with his dad through all that. Sad story about Chris meeting Rock Hudson on the set of Dynasty.. Chris has overcome so much. He is a husband and dad and he made his father so proud. Very good listen..THe book is a great read. Chris and I are now pals..He is a true sweetie pie. WE give a shout out to our friend Stone Wallace. All his friends miss him..

Thanks so much to Chris..You were fab and so honest.

Part 2 I talk to authorJeremy Arnold on his book Christmas In The Movies 30 Classics To Celebrate The Season

Tue, 22 Dec 2020 11:34:01 -0500

Jeremy wrote this book for the TCM collection. He is also author of The Essentials 1 and The Essentials Part 2. Hopefully he will be back in the New Year and we can discuss his choices.

Jeremy chose a variety of Christmas movies. Of course the old classics, he also chose some of the more modern Christmas movies. There are lots of tidbits. I enjoyed it thoroughly. He was a lot of fun and he knows his Christmas flicks. We both have the same fave A Christmas Carol, there could be couple you have never heard of so check on TCM or You tube. I have a few that I love that didn't make the book. One I think you should check out is Christmas Holiday. It is on you tube (so far). Jeremy thought it wasn't really a Christmas movie, but it was during Christmas, there were flashbacks, but ultimately about letting go and being free culminating on Christmas night.. Deanna Durbin was great in her only dramatic role, and Gene Kelly was a charming swine. All of Jeremy's choices are great so its a great read and check out those movies.

I want to thank Jeremy so much for being my guest. He was fab. This was supposed to be out last week, but it was beyond my control.

Most of all I want to thank my listeners. You all are the best. Sorry about my disappearance from Facebook but my eyes really needed/need the break.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays. Please be safe.

Much Love,

Grace

I talked to Lara Parker, who played the amazing Angelique in Dark Shadows. We talk the show, her career and my used to be liked a lot horror film. The real scary stuff was behind the scenes.

Mon, 14 Dec 2020 13:43:10 -0500

I had a great time talking to Lara, she was so forthcoming and a lot of fun. I want to thank my pal David Selby for asking her to come on the show.

We talk Dark Shadows, her feminist witch, then vampire. She talks about biting Johnny Carson and we discussed the horror film she starred in, Race With The Devil, 1975. When I first moved TO NYC it was on Channel 11 and scared me big time. The behind the scenes scoop she gave me was the real horror.. You will be very mad, not at Lara but the production team. It was an informative and interesting show.

Thanks so much to Lara for coming on the show. She was fabulous.

Mostly thanks to you, the listeners.. You are the best!!

Part 2 My Guest Sloan De Forest and I talk about the lovely and tragic Gene Tierney..WE also digress to Grace Kelly and that important question..Did Gene indicate???

Thu, 10 Dec 2020 09:54:24 -0500

Sloan and I had planned on doing the Gene podcast to be released on her birthday..WE came close. We talk Gene's childhood, her stardom, her marriage to Oleg Cassini,, her daughter Daria that was born severely disabled. If you don't know why, we tell you. It's so tragic. We discuss Gene's years battling mental illness to getting out of Hollywood to live with her new husband, a Texas oilman, that had once been married to Hedy Lamarr. Gene wrote a wonderful memoir and she did not hold back. Mental illness was not to be talked about. Gene did and I'm sure she helped many during their own battles. Not only was Gene beautiful, but she was beautiful inside as well. Grab a cup of joe, tea, wine, eggnog and listen to Genes journey.

Thanks so much to Sloan for being a great cohost and guest. She has just finished another super duper book. Here are a few of her others

Here is the lovely Sloan's authors page. I love her books.

I talk to my friend John DiLeo about How classic Hollywood portrayed Heaven and Hell

Thu, 03 Dec 2020 12:12:47 -0500

John and I discuss how the afterlife, or near afterlife was depicted in Classic Hollywood. Lots of Angels, from Cary Grant to Clarence the lovable guy from It's a wonderful life. I ask the question is there food in heaven?? John does not want to just float on a cloud and play the Harp. WE touch on reincarnation too.

One I forgot to mention is The Twilight Zone Episode A Man And His Dog. Heaven seems like it would be lots of fun. Its a fab episode and The Old Mans Dog actually saves him from taking the wrong road to Hell. The St Peter imposter said dogs were not allowed in Heaven. The dog barked near the entrance and at the man. The Old Man says I won't go to Heaven if you don't take my dog so he keeps on walking. They come across the real entrance to Heaven where his loyal dog is happily joining his guy in the heavenly place.. I love this episode. WE don't see heaven, but it sounds like fun.

Thanks so much to John for being a fab guest once again. You can find all Johns books here.

Part 2 I talk to Author Marshall Terrill about his fab book, Steve McQueen…In His Own Words..Steve was the coolest dude

Sun, 29 Nov 2020 09:34:36 -0500

This was a fun podcast for me, as all are actually. I love Steve McQueen and its truly in his words. Hundreds of quotes with never before seen photos of the cool dude Steve. Marshall has written a couple books on Steve but this gets you right into Steve's head. His rough childhood, becoming an actor, loving riding his motorcycles and racing. He was a self admitted chauvinist and we get a peak into his three marriages. WE also see Steve in his final battle against cancer, after he was told nothing could be done, he went to Mexico to try the controversial treatment of laetrile. Steve died in a little filthy looking room in Mexico seventeen hours after a massive surgery. It is an emotional look at Steve. He was no saint. He was a living breathing cool cat and remains an iconic dude today.. Join us on a journey into Steves life in his own words.

Thanks so much to Marshall. He was fab and so easy to talk to. I love the book.

I talk to author and jewelry designer Alexis Hunter about her book Joi Lansing A Body To Die For..A Love Story..

Sat, 21 Nov 2020 10:02:53 -0500

I talk to my friend Alexis Hunter about her book Joi Lansing..A Body To Die For..A Love Story. Its the story of Alex's love of her life who she met when she was 22. Joi was a sex symbol, a glamour puss deluxe, singer and comedic actress. Joy was in her early forties and the time was 1970's. Blonde bombshells were out and the groovy look was in. Alex takes us through their friendship that turned into love. Joi's battle with cancer and a warning to beware what you have put into your body. In Joi's case silicone injected directly into her breasts. Read, read ,read about anything you may be thinking about using. The book is touching, funny at times, and of course sad. Its a very good read.

Alex is now designing jewelry.
