They talk it through in their usual breezy way— Gaelic Imports in their own words. We told you about Emmer Morris and his wonderful pasties and all the good food that was kind of on the Gaelic side out in the western part of Chicago. Well, we should sort of edge you over to the bagpipe room and interest you in what they call a practice chanter, which is the instrument that you learn to play bagpipes on. Unlike so many other musical instruments, you can actually learn to play for a small investment of about $12.

A quick slice of the late‑60s— December 1968. Guest Polly Murray of McCormick Spices in their own words. And I wonder if anyone’s ever used or tried cinnamon in brownies, because chocolate and cinnamon go very, very well together. So this could be something they could be to put just a little bit of cinnamon in. And incidentally, if you’re having guests in for Christmas, let’s maybe cut little tiny squares of brownies, just bite-sized ones that are nice to eat, rather than the larger ones.
Short, warm, and very much 19xx— Quebec City (Part 1) in their own words. But the other day we got to talking about a trip we took two years ago to Quebec City, Carnival.

They keep it light and lively— 1968 Guest is Henry Ringling North in their own words. Oh, well, I won’t start being reminiscent But the other night Joe and I took our youngsters and we went down to the opening of the circus Ringling brothers Barnum and Bailey down at the amphitheater And you know you just sort of get swept up in nostalgia and watching these kids and very adult people too Who just work themselves to death then afterwards? So we want everybody to join in today My mother used to spend her summers in bearaboo when she was a little girl And so she was rather blasé about circus stuff, you know when I was a kid I had to fight to get to go to the circus because she just sort of thought everybody does But we’re we’re fascinated and have been for so long and we take our children up to bearaboo to the circus world museum Well, probably once a year just to see that and sort of keep in touch Do you ever get to bearaboo anytime the circus is playing near there when we’re in Madison or Well, I generally when we run from Minneapolis to Chicago. I was born here in Chicago But just because mother wanted to have me in the hospital and I was brought up in Baraboo between Baraboo and Sarasota, Florida What was it like?

Think street‑level and spontaneous— 1969 Ivanhoe Theatre and The Corn is Green in their own words. And now, Mal and Joe are on the go to the theatre, and to the theatre that is giving me little goosebumps these days, because in my opinion, this is the best theatre in the city of Chicago.

We went out to Aaron Davies Welsh Presbyterian Church out on the west side of Chicago.
