from Quiet, Please | Old Time Radio · host Old Time Retro Radio
Quiet, Please presents “Where Do You Get Your Ideas?,” episode 88 of the classic radio series Quiet, Please, originally broadcast on February 20, 1949. Written and directed by Wyllis Cooper for ABC, this sustaining broadcast is preserved here from a local archival recording.Near closing time in a quiet bar, an insistent radio fan corners a reserved writer of fantastic stories with one persistent question: where do you get your ideas? Ernest Chappell stars as the increasingly tipsy Basil Gitlitz in this darkly comic, self-aware fantasy, with Kathleen Niday and Charles Egleston also featured.Quiet, Please presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.Chapters:00:00 Victor Sterling Introduction00:41 Original Broadcast27:49 ClosingSupport Old Time Retro Radio at https://www.patreon.com/oldtimeretroradio
