241. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | The Countdown to Abdication

from Done & Dunne

No one inside or outside the palace seems all too pleased in this continuing episode of our Wallis series. We are definitely on the countdown to the December 1936 abdication of Edward VIII, and the events of the summer and fall really turn up the temperature on the whole sordid mess. David isn’t too keen on being the king. Neither are his advisors. A lot of folks would like to see David just walk away from the job. The one lone voice urging him to keep the gig was his lover, Wallis. She wants no part of any of this nonsense, but it seems any chance she had to leave her fate is long gone.

Join me daily and I'll guide you through a very simple and brief activity where I'll give you a couple affirmations, a question to ask yourself and quote, all designed particularly for the person whose goal is to live at 100%.

Screen Guild Theatre Digitally Restored zhaoguiwen This is the BEST Quality set of Screen Guild Theatre shows currently available ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!! Yet it is not the most Complete.Nicholas Hans Gary：I have spent many years tracking down these shows from MANY difference sources (Official Cassette, LP Vinyl, Digital etc) and enhancing shows that are of lower caliber quality so as to try to remove muffling, overblown sharp highs, enhance vocals, tighten bass, clean audio, remove hiss, pops, normalize volume level throughout the entire episode etc. On every episode I also normalized the audio levels of audience clapping throughout the episode and loud music portions to be very close to that of the actual performance instead of 4-5 times the volume.ALL episodes in this collection are of what I consider Very Good audio quality, I have done my very best to find ALL available good q
