[John Cornell]

Why sure, Bob. And by the way, are you going to get a pumpkin head?

[Bob Jellison]

No, I'm gonna stay sober.

[John Cornell]

No, not that. A pumpkin head. You know what it is? What is it? That has a funny yellow face with buck teeth and slit eyes.

Well, I just thought I'd drop around and see how things are going.

[Bob Jellison]

Well, I'm glad you did, Doc.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

I can't waste much time, though. Got a lot to do. Gotta go to the hotel and check the mileage on that roller towel. Getting close to a new record. Gotta go to the butcher shop for the unveiling of the sausage machine. And, oh, yes, gotta go to the firehouse. Big day there. Launching the new deck of cards and the Pinocchle game.

[Bob Jellison]

Why, you certainly are the busy boy. You know, it's been plenty busy around here, Doc. Pretty soon I'll be needing a helpmate.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

A what?

[Bob Jellison]

A help mate. A help mate? Don't you know what a help mate is?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Well, sure I do. That's my favorite radio serial. Gosh, I wish I'd seen that Linda gal before Steve did. Well, gotta get going, Bucky. There's all that Halloweening to do. First thing I'd better do, though, is get my Tic Tac fixed.

[John Cornell]

Doc, you don't actually mean you're going out and play Halloween pranks and all that sort of thing?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Oh, toot your horn, kid. You're in a fog. Sure I am, John boy.

[Bob Jellison]

Hey, Jock, don't you think you're too old to go halloweening?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Too old? Oh, fiddle faddle. Fiddle faddle.

[Bob Jellison]

I mean, what's that?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Somebody called me. Thought I heard my name.

[Bob Jellison]

No, Doc, no. Well, I will admit you're mighty chipper for your age.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Yeah, just Like a mule in a briar patch, Bucky. Still, I can't understand why they don't take me in the army. Gonna take them 18 year old boys. You know, like I was saying to the other pin boys down at the bowling alley. I said that?

[Bob Jellison]

Hey, wait a minute. You mean you're setting up pins at the bowling alley?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Why sure, Bucky. Strikes me as a good spare time job. You get it? Strikes spares.

[Bob Jellison]

Ha.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Mama pinned a rose on me.

[Bob Jellison]

Oh, doctor.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Well, like I was saying to the other pin boys at the bowling alley. What's an 18 year old boy got that I don't remember having?

[Bob Jellison]

Now look Doc, you used that joke on the Fountain of Fun program last week.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Oh, so that's where I heerd it. That's a mighty funny program. Never miss it. Especially that old fellow. Why he.

[Bob Jellison]

Look, don't think this isn't interesting, because it isn't. But I don't want to waste your time when you have so much to do.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

That's right, Bucky. I got a lot of preliminary work to do for Halloweening. I got my eye on a few windows or soap. Got a couple of swings lined up to carry off. And back at Charlie Detwiler's house, there's an. Out back of Charlie Detwiler's house there's an outworn old buggy we're gonna haul.

[Bob Jellison]

Doctor, you certainly are a cut up.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

I got to get me some jack o' lanterns too. Guess I'll have to buy some pumpkins. You know, I used to grow them myself.

[Bob Jellison]

Is that so, Doc?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Oh yes. In these parts I was considered the head pumpkin grower. Punkin. Head fiddle faddle. I was doing as in them days.

[Bob Jellison]

Oh, you sad man.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

You should have been out with us the other night, Bucky. Awful thing happened to me though.

[Bob Jellison]

The what, Doc?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Well, we was out by the cemetery, see, and I got lost from the rest of the kids. And I'm telling you, it was mighty scary.

[Bob Jellison]

Yeah? Yeah, Doc.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Well, I was going along there, trying to figure out just where I was. It was awful dark. I was kind of whistling to myself and then all of a sudden I seen a ghost.

[Bob Jellison]

You can't.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Yes, I sure did. Well, sir, I lit out as fast as I could. Looked back over my shoulder and seen that ghost coming after me. Yeah, then I really run. Fairly flew, I tell you. But he kept right behind me. Finally I just couldn't run no more. Had to sit down on the bench and there I was, a huffing and a puffin and this ghost feller sits right down beside me.

[Bob Jellison]

Yeah, yeah.

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

And he says to me, he says, well, that was some running we did. And I says, that's right, Mr. Ghost. And just as soon as I get my breath back, we're gonna do some more.

[Phil Brito]

The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping. I dreamed I held you in my arms when I awok I was mistaken. And I hung my head and cried. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never know, dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away. You told me once, dear, you really love me. And no one else could come between. But now you've left me and loving others. You have shattered all my dreams. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never know, dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away. Please don't take my sunshine away. Now don't you take my sunshine. Please let it stand.

[Bob Jellison]

That was Del Greedo singing you are my sunshine. Hello, Veronica Lagoon. Hello. Say Veronica, did you hear about the big Halloween party over at Doc's place?

[Veronica Lagoon]

Why no, Bobby.

[Unknown]

How was it?

[Bob Jellison]

What do you mean how was it? Halloween isn't here yet.

[Veronica Lagoon]

It isn't? Well, what are all those skeletons I've been seeing around town?

[Bob Jellison]

Skeletons? Those are four Fs.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Oh, and those people I see flying around on broomsticks?

[Bob Jellison]

Fuller freshmen. Conserving tires.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Well, speaking about conserving tires, Bobby, my girlfriend Myrtle got a ticket for conserving tires.

[Bob Jellison]

She got a ticket for conserving tires?

[Veronica Lagoon]

Uh huh. She was going around corners on two wheels.

[Bob Jellison]

I see. Well then this girlfriend of yours, is she the one who looks big enough to be a stand in for a liberty shift?

[Veronica Lagoon]

Uh huh. Well, she's a nurse, Bobby, and a very nice girl. Awfully broad minded if you ask me.

[Bob Jellison]

She's awfully broad minded all over.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Well, she's a good nurse. Of course she talks a lot, but her boyfriend knows how to keep her quiet.

[Bob Jellison]

How does he manage to keep her quiet? Date and hug her.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Louisville slugger.

[Bob Jellison]

No wonder she's got bats in her belfry.

[Veronica Lagoon]

You know, Bobby, Myrtle told me that I'd make a good nurse. So now I'm studying first aid at business school.

[Bob Jellison]

Oh, is that so? Well, look, if I gave you a practical problem in first aid, do you suppose you could answer it?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

Oh, I don't know, Bucky. I guess I can take you and Phil Brito and Veronica and the Thrasher kids over easy enough. Might have to make two trips for Phil Davis, though.

[Bob Jellison]

Hey, gosh, the way you fellas around this place talk, you'd think that I weighed a ton dressed in a bathing suit. Oh, well, in a bathing suit. But you are heavy, Mr. D, and that's no kidding. Why, just yesterday you were walking down the street when I heard a little boy say to his mother, look, Mommy. Inflation. Well, look I met a girl last night who doesn't think I'm so stout. No. She said I reminded her of a white house. A white house?

Do you believe in ghosts, Bob? Oh, why certainly, Mary. I live in a haunted house. You do? Why do you live in a haunted house? Oh, just for the spirit of the thing. Are there real ghosts in the house where you live? I'll say. The other night I saw about 40 of them. 40 of them? God. Well, 41 to be exact. But one little ghost was away, off in the corner all by himself. The others wouldn't have anything to do with them.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Why not?

[Bob Jellison]

His sheet was tattletale gray.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Gosh, it sure must be spooky living.

[Bob Jellison]

In a haunted house. Do you hear any unusual sounds? I'll say I do. The ghosts turned in their chains to the scrap metal drive and now they go around dragging plastics.

I see Mrs. Roosevelt is visiting at Buckingham Palace.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Oh, yes. I think it's very nice of the king to break down and allow ladies to come into the palace.

[Bob Jellison]

What are you talking about, Veronica? Ladies have always been allowed there.

[Veronica Lagoon]

Oh, no, Bobby. Just last week I read a headline that said, first lady to enter Buckingham Palace.

[Bob Jellison]

That's all for now, but we'll be back again next Sunday at the same time. So you'll be here too, won't you?

[John Cornell]

Yes. Bars Incorporated, makers of Milky Way candy bars, invite you to visit the Fountain of Fun next Sunday at 5:30 Eastern. War time. All the gang will be here. Bill Brito, the Thrasher Sisters, Phil Davis and his music, Veronica Lagoon, Doc Fiddle Faddle and Bob Jellison. John Cornell speaking. This is the Nation station.

What happens when you raise a toddler while your other kids are in college?

[Doc Fiddle Faddle]

I'm Dan and Diapers for Two is.

[Bob Jellison]

My podcast about parenting in my 50s with four kids, including one still in diapers. It's funny, raw and sometimes a little heartbreaking. We talk tantrums, sleep training, adult kids, aging parents, and why doing it all again might be the best part. Search Diapers for two Wherever you get.
