R.I.P.P.
Soupy Sales, 83, is dead. R.I.P.P. is "rest in piece of pie" because few took a whipped cream (really shaving cream) pie to the face like this pioneer of TV slapstick.
His vaudeville shtick humor knew no age barriers and at one point his program ran in prime time, attracting guests as big as Sinatra, wanting a pie in their faces, too.
Certain personalities make a mark in pop culture that is unique. Soupy Sales is dead. Long live the Soup. Check out YouTube for clips.

Carney's art
This morning, a long-forgotton comic popped into our consciousness.
Alan Carney
Dec.11, 1911, Brooklyn, N.Y.
Chubby, rubber-faced comedian Alan Carney knocked around vaudeville for years as a comic dialectician. After making his first film, 1941's Convoy, Carney signed a contract at RKO, appearing in choice supporting roles in such films as Mr. Lucky (1943). In 1943, Carney was teamed with Wally Brown as RKO's answer to Abbott and Costello. In addition to their inexpensive starring vehicles, Brown and Carney co-starred in Step Lively (1943), a musical remake of the Marx Bros.' Room Service (1938) where Wally played Chico's part and Carney filled in for Harpo; the Groucho role was essayed by, of all people, Adolphe Menjou. Brown and Carney were also featured on a live USO tour arranged by the studio. After 1946's Genius at Work, RKO terminated the team's contracts. Carney continued in films and TV as a supporting player, working prolifically at Disney Studios in the 1960s and 1970s; one of Carney's best latter-day roles was as Mayor Dawgmeat in the 1959 film musical Li'l Abner. ~ Hal Erickson

Technology institutes
Video murdered the radio star in the ’80s and the Internet trounced all aspects of the music business by the end of the '90s. And now it is devouring the newspaper industry. So how does one create revenue in a world of free content? Voices from our host’s college --a landmark in the history of rock 'n roll music-- are alive with the sound of the online revolution.

Greek theater
A thought-provoking look at the career of the late, great film maker John Cassavettes (pictured) will serve as a solid example of how anyone should learn to play the system in order to support their own methods and madnesses.

Is data fact!
We should be back on line and ready to stream live on Oct. 1, opening autumn’s series of program with a look at some strange, raw data. It’s a world of polls, studies and percentages that prove nothing but a common thread of the topic at hand. Yet, these samples are taken seriously by just about everyone. So it is that we indulge in polls and facts about things that few people could possibly take seriously.
