Oh, Steve, you are the best!! I just heard my name as listener of the week . I am so honored!! Love you, Nan and, of course, the show!! ❤❤❤❤ Keep the fabulous content coming, my old friend!!
Oh, YAY! We just wanted you to know how much we appreciate all of your wonderful support. It was a no-brainer for us to make you our listener of the week! 🙂🙂🙂
This is such a fantastic episode! I learned so much in this episode and I just love this podcast more and more. Truly a wonderful podcast and you both are the icing on the cake ❤
Hi Gwen! Thank you for the nice message. You can find my blog at www.frombeneaththehollwyoodsoign.com Many of the stories we've covered on the podcast, started on my blog. 🙂
Stories behind logos are always fascinating. I have heard a rumor that Leo the Lion's roar was actually done by a tiger as the lion's roar is not as dramatic. Is this true?
I have heard that rumor too, but I think it's only a rumor. There are some great photos of Jackie, the Lion, standing before recording equipment to capture his roar. 🙂
Poor Greta was terrified! Are one of those lions used to lay on the back of Gloria Swanson? Just wondering because there is a famous image and scene where she is with a lion. I had heard that one 9f the lions ended up without teeth. I have read that in more than one book. As for the present lion...I hate CGI. It's used so much that I'm bored by it. Bring back an original from the 30s. I hate that they got rid of the Latin on the logo. Stop toying with perfection. You both did a great job on this and love the torch lady.
In what movie was the Columbia logo used at the end of the movie and not the beginning? Straight Jacket. I saw that woman on the Mike Douglas show. And that picture is NOT the Marx Brothers. I thought the first MGM movie was Ben Her in 1925. The lion did not roar in the beginning because the movies were still silent...
Delicious. Just delicious. Bravi a dui, mille grazie, bis. ❤❤

Another fun episode and yes, CGI lion is a travesty! I don’t want new lions to be caged but surely there’s enough wonderful footage from days of yore

Awwwwww! Thank you so much! 🙂
You can still see (at least I did in the 1980s, during a Wonder Bread truck tour) part of the RKO logo on the corner of a building in Hollywood.
I discovered this podcast via RUclips. I’m really enjoying it. Noticed Steve has a blog. I’d love to take a look. How can I access it? Thanks

I always thought she looked liked Ida Lupino (time stamp 10:25). My husband just laughed.
I can totally see a little Ida in her face! 😊😊😊
I think so,too
I like Jenny Joseph's look myself,she's pretty.She looks a lot like Ida Lupino.
This is one of the few videos I can listen through to the end. For it to have barely more than 500 subscribers is a travesty!
Thank you for your kind words, Kerry. We are trying hard to grow our subscription base! 🙂
