The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour (23)


Another page from the ACME Catalog -


Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with the 1959 Looney Tunes cartoon, Wild About Hurry:



look for director Chuck Jones' credit displayed upon a rocket that the coyote plans to ride.


Today on the ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour, we are remembering a rather unpleasant event in the life of the fantastic performer Baroness von Sacher-Masoch. On this date in 1969, Marianne Faithfull collapsed due to a barbiturate overdose on the set of the film Ned Kelly after Mick Jagger told her their relationship was over. She was rushed to a Sydney hospital in a coma where she recovered. She was later dropped from the movie.



We are honoring Faithfull today by watching a 2009 BBC Four Session special featuring Marianne Faithfull.
