Thank you for joining us today.
Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with another Bugs Bunny Merrie Melodies cartoon, the 1950 Hillbilly Hare, directed by Robert McKimson.
Please note: in the past, this cartoon has been heavily edited in the past. Among the scenes that have been edited were: The scene where Hillbilly #1 unties his rifle barrel, gets blasted in the face, was cut, as well as, the scene where Bugs meets up with Hillbilly #2, and Bugs reverses the gun barrel so that the second hillbilly is blown up was cut.
Before the start of our feature presentation ACME Eagle Hand Soap would like bring you some straight facts about COVID - 19 with Dr. Fauci.
Remember - even Dr. Fauci needs to be reminded to wash his hands.
The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour would like to celebrate the anniversary the passing of Chesney Henry Baker Jr., an inductee of both Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame and the Down Beat magazine Jazz Hall of Fame, in May of 1988. Baker's tragic and ignominious death, seems incongruous for someone whose initial career had begun so spectacularly. Today we would like to look about at the career and life of Chet Baker by asking you to sit back (quick, find the most comfortable seat on the sofa,) get a snack and a beverage and join The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour in watching this 1988 documentary by noted photographer Bruce Weber - Let's Get Lost.
Four months before the film's release in September 1988, Baker died under mysterious circumstances in a fall from his hotel room window in Amsterdam. It's been variously speculated his death was an accident, suicide or revenge by drug dealers to whom he owed money.
Demand Euphoria!
