Re-Imagined Radio sampled New Year's Eve episodes of The Whistler and Guy Lombardo's New Year's Eve Party to celebrate the start of 2021. Broadcasts and streams by our local, regional, and international partners. January, named for Janus, the Roman god of beginnings and endings, is noted for New Year's Eve, an opportunity to reflect and celebrate both the previous and upcoming years. The "New Year" episode of Re-Imagined Radio sampled two stories, one from The Whistler the other from Guy Lombardo's New Year's Eve Party, about this unique opportunity. From The Whistler we sampled "The First Year," the December 31, 1947 episode in which a rich uncle decides to teach his niece, Lydia, the true value of matrimony by changing his will to require her and her husband, Elliott, to stay married for ten years before they inherit. If one of them dies, the other inherits everything. The story begins and ends on New Year's Eve of "The First Year" of their marriage. The Whistler broadcast 692 episodes from 16 May 1942 to 22 September 1955. Each episode began with a 13-note theme composed by musical director Wilbur Hatch and whistled by Dorothy Roberts who worked at Lockheed. Roberts whistled the beginning of each episode of The Whistler the thirteen-year series. Additional compositions by Hatch added drama and transitions during the episodes. Hatch was also musical director and composed for other CBS radio programs like Suspense, Broadway Is My Beat, Our Miss Brooks, and others. Ironically, most of America could not hear The Whistler as it was confined to the CBS Pacific Coast network where the program's sponsor, Signal Oil Company, had a presence. Despite this lack of national distribution, The Whistler was considered one of the most popular of all American radio mystery anthologies, and its whistled theme was known to millions. Each episode focused on criminal acts and their surprise undoing, narrated by the unnamed and omnipresent Whistler who often commented directly on the action like a Greek chorus. Next we sampled from Guy Lombardo's New Year's Eve Party broadcast live from The Grill Room in the Roosevelt Hotel, New York City, December 31, 1957. Lombardo, born and raised in London, Ontario, Canada, founded his orchestra in 1914 with brothers Carmen, Victor, and Lebert. In America, Lombardo and his orchestra wore bright red blazers and called themselves "The Royal Canadians." They became synonymous with New Year's Eve celebrations, performing for live nationwide radio broadcasts from 1929 (the first nationwide New Year's eve broadcast) until 1976. Beginning in 1956, Guy Lombardo and The Royal Canadians began broadcasting their New Year's Eve Party on both radio and television with each celebration featuring a televised segment from New York's Times Square. From these years of live performances, Lombardo is noted as "Mr. New Year's Eve" and is honored as providing the theme song for these celebrations, "Auld Lang Syne" a traditional Scottish folk song based on the poem of the same title written by Robert Burns in 1788. The poem-song is about two friends reflecting over drinks about their long and sometimes distant friendship. The title best translates as "Old long since," or "For the sake of old times."

THE classic hardboiled private eye drama with just enough noir to keep things edgy. Sam Spade, Brigid O'Shaughnessy, Joel Cairo, Casper Gutman. Dashiell Hammett brought them to life with his iconic storytelling. The Maltese Falcon is enjoyed as a novel, a motion picture, and a radio drama. The novel, written by American writer Dashiell Hammett was originally serialized in Black Mask magazine, beginning with the September 1929 issue. The complete novel was published in 1930 by Alfred A. Knopf. The novel was adapted as a motion picture four times, most notably in 1941 as John Huston's directorial debut and starring Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor, Peter Lorre, Sydney Greenstreet, and Gladys George. This film adaptation of The Maltese Falcon was nominated for three Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Sydney Greenstreet), and Best Adapted Screenplay (John Huston). The Maltese Falcon was adapted twice as an audio book, once as a stage performance, and once as a radio drama, the 3 July 1946 episode of Academy Award, a weekly radio program featuring actors and actresses, techniques and skills chosen from motion pictures nominated or having won the Oscar award of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. This episode, entitled The Maltese Falcon starred Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor and Sydney Greenstreet, who reprised their roles in the 1941 motion picture. It is from this episode of Academy Award that we adapted our re-imagined performance. Today, whether as the novel, film, or radio drama, The Maltese Falcon is often cited as the best example of both noir and hardboiled detective fiction. From the noir subgenre comes a bleak tone with nihilistic characters whose greed causes them to lie, steal, and cheat, becoming more and more entangled in a web of machinations from which they cannot escape. The hardboiled detective genre features a somewhat fallen private detective who may bend, even break, the law in pursuit of justice, and who, despite a broken moral compass, emerges from dilemmas with a clean ethical slate. In both noir and hardboiled detective fiction, it is the interaction between characters that moves the story forward. Our story featured a definitive cast of classic characters. First, Sam Spade, a San Francisco private detective with his own code of ethics, and a connoisseur of comebacks. Spade is hounded by police detectives, thugs, and public officials driven by personal career interests. Effie Perine, Spade's secretary, provided comfort and moral guidance, but she had Spade's number. Miles Archer, Spade's partner, was murdered within the first few minutes of the story, a consequence that required a solution from Spade. Joel Cairo was a criminal for sure, but he smelled of gardenias. Casper Gutman, The Fat Man, was wealthy, cunning, charming, obsessed with a falcon statuette. And, finally, Brigid O'Shaughnessy, a femme fatale, beautiful but treacherous, who changed her name, and loyalty, at the drop of a dime. They all were looking for a gold statue of a falcon. It was a volatile but entertaining mix, making The Maltese Falcon arguably one of the best detective stories ever written, and Hammett one of the greatest mystery writers of all time.
