Paul Harvey warned everyone in 1965 and people ignored it, I was 7. We're healing ancestral trauma for letting it slide. Just know it ends right here, right now. 🤔
This video is under four minutes. It is way off topic and I am only posting for myself. I was thinking of him today. He was such an amazing broadcaster and storyteller... and we may never see his like pass our way again. I got hooked on him as a teenager and used to listen I believe at noon, from my Ford Pinto. I did a little search and found this amazing story of him speaking of Red Skelton on a plane headed for a crash. No one ever has replicated this man in the telling for me. He actually shaped a lot of my thoughts going into adulthood with the common sense but love for our nation. He was still around I believe when I went into the Navy, what a different world it was then.
I went into tears at his voice, this is the first recording I just found on YT. Am going back for more. Will give an hour or so to him and memories. Just posting in tribute. Miss you dear. Thank you for all you gave. Not forgotten.
This film provided Humphrey Bogart with his breakthrough role as the gangster Duke Mantee. Bogart had played the role opposite Leslie Howard on stage and when the time came to make the movie Leslie Howard told the studio that unless they cast Bogart as Mantee, he'd refuse to be in it. Howard was a major star at the time and Warner Brothers acquiesced.
