OTR Weekend File Upgrades

About this film

OTR Weekend File Upgrades Antidote to NPR Pledge Drive NPR's begging for bux again, so those who listen might enjoy this respite. Eight mostly half-hour shows I've edited for listenability. Background noise and/or volume lowered, speed adjustments, etc. Did what I could with the Benny -- it's a pretty messed-up file; long stretch of low speed after old ladies' gossiping, which I fixed, but then it speeds up for a few minutes later on when scout troop appears. The BOK ep was mislabeled as 1958; more likely its from '63. The HST ep is a tidy version of My Name is Julia Ross , starring Ann Todd and Herbert Marshall. Ella Fitzgerald scats divinely in the latter half of the Jubilee show.
