Norm Nathan's Vault of Silliness w/Tony Nesbitt - Ep 107 - Age-vantages

This week’s episode is a DBG from October 5th, 1996 which I’ve titled, “Age-vantages.” Tom Howie was producing. We begin with quite the intro for Jack Harte from Norm. Norm laments the transitions of the season but because he is a doctor, please take off everything and he will only look at you in a medical manner. Jack believes it all starts with windows going from opened to closed and that brings on general malaise. There’s some Kyrie and Bobo talk (Norm’s Newfoundland dogs). We are informed that people walk all over Norm because he’s too good of a person and Jack wastes no time requesting Norm’s help with something. The subject of growing old comes up along with it’s advantages and disadvantages. We get some incredible wisdom and insight from a stupid guy Norm knew and everyone’s favorite HGPG.  The Players: Jack Harte Mike from Marlborough Joanne from Everett Charlie in Malden And Betty from Sudbury During the introductions we venture into the “what exactly is middle age” territory and what age was it hardest to turn. The Birthdays: Bill Dana Glynis Johns Karen Allen Donald Pleasance…no, wait… Steve Miller Sir Bob Geldof Diane Cilento, Sean Connery’s ex-wife…on second thought Some Dead Bdays: Chester A. Arthur Ray Crock And Alan Ludden   The game ends with an Historic Event question: In what year was The World Series first broadcast on radio?   Other highlights: Joanne hearing static and another station on the line. Norm says turn it up it’s probably a lot better than this. Newfoundland dogs help everything. Norm was not a hunk. Norm’s friend, Sydney Gelpi (sp?), had his own room with pin-up pix on the walls.  Mike needs socks. WBZ is older than Norm. Norm remains terribly behind in sending out prizes but in the end, it doesn’t matter because it’s all junk. Norm’s father describing the younger Norm. And Jack was at a charity function that his fine lady, Moneen was hosting where a 25-piece Big Band and singer Toni Ballard were performing. Let’s get the candles lit on Episode 107, “Age-vantages”…now.
