TEX AND JINX Radio & Television BROADCAST HISTORY: April 22, 1946- February 27, 1959. WEAF (WNBC, WRCA), New York weekdays at 8:30 A.M. until 1954; at 1:00pm,1954-1955; then at 6:30 and 10:35pm until July 31, 1958, moving briefly to WOR, broadcasting at 2:15pm. In addition to the Kollmars (Dorothy Kilgallen and husband Richard Kollmar) and the Fitzgeralds (Pegeen and husband Ed Fitzgerald), another well-recognized New York couple, newlyweds Tex McCrary and Jinx Falkenburg, added their own bread-and-bacon banter to the local airwaves between 1946 and 1959. Their gabfest, initially Hi Jinx but later revised to Tex and Jinx, was beamed over WEAF which was subsequently re-lettered WNBC and later WRCA. In limited doses, the flagship outlet of the National Broadcasting Company transmitted Meet Tex and Jinx to the whole country during 1947 and 1948. Tex and Jinx devoted most of their airtime to lofty and noble concepts, visitors and sidebars. Tex and Jinx [on WEAF-WNBC-WRCA] were interviewing Bernard Baruch, Margaret Truman, or Ethel Waters…. McCrary built the show on the assumption that the early morning audience was not stupid, as programmers generally assumed; that people in general had fresher minds and were more open to serious topics at the beginning of the day.” Their joint radio venture began in April 1946 just 10 months following their nuptials (June 10, 1945). Launched as a breakfast feature, the series later shifted to afternoons and finally into the evening hours before departing the ether a dozen years afterward. They were branded by one journalist “Mr. Brains and Mrs. Beauty.” In early 1947 NBC put them on its television network as a portion of a Sunday evening quarter-hour dubbed Bristol-Myers Tele-Varieties. “The McCrarys were naturals for TV,” wrote a reviewer, “with their combination of friendly chatter, interviews, and features.” That summer the web awarded them an exclusive Sunday night half-hour format under the appellation At Home with Tex and Jinx. A decade later, in the 1957-58 season, the duo hosted a daytime NBC-TV showcase, The Tex and Jinx Show. When hepatitis sidetracked Falkenburg in 1958 from their broadcast commitments, McCrary carried on solo on their radio show for another couple of years. In the 1980s, however, the couple separated, remaining on genial terms. McCrary died in New York on July 29, 2003 and Falkenburg expired just 29 days later in the same city, on August 27, 2003. NOTE:: The scores of TEX AND JINX SHOWS archived by Archival Television Audio, Inc. were originally obtained as original 16" Electronic Discs from Barry Farber, producer of the show (1957-1959), in 1960 after he had begun his own career in front of the mike at WINS Radio. These discs were subsequently transferred to 1/4" reel to reel tape, and then disposed. These broadcasts are rare and represent the largest known collection of TEX AND JINX extant broadcasts in the world. Tex and Jinx speak with Sid Caesar, Marlon Brando, Tennessee Williams, Hal Wallis, and Marilyn Monroe before the New York City premiere of the movie "The Rose Tattoo." Also interviewed by Jinx Falkenburg is director of "The Rose Tattoo," Daniel Mann. He speaks admirably working with Ann Magnani as does Marlon Brando who also praised James Wong Howe's cinematography. Brando and Marilyn Monroe have words for one another, as well as Sid Caesar who is in awe sitting next to Monroe. Marilyn talks about the Actor's Studio and there are some very funny moments recorded of Brando asking Monroe to do an improvisation. Tex McCrary interviews Helen Hayes. A gem of a broadcast archived originally by Archival Television Audio, Inc. MORE complete than any of the bootlegged unauthorized versions posted to you tube that came from me originally. This version reflects the original master 16" ET transferred to 1/4" audio tape in 1960. NOTE: JOHN McCRARY 9/10/2001 Dear Phil, [Letter in response to receiving a requested audio air check by Jinx Falkenburg ("Tex & Jinx" live radio broadcast) with guests Marilyn Monroe, Marlon Brando and Sid Caesar] "Thank you again for the cassette. As I mentioned on the phone, my mother, Jinx (Falkenburg), has always said that that interview with Marilyn (Monroe) - Dec. 12, 1955 - was her most difficult interview ever." Sincerely, John McCrary

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past. Johnny's guests are Zsa Zsa Gabor, Marlon Brando, Howard Duff, Ida Lupino, and Allan Sherman. 15-minute excerpt. NOTE: Marlon Brando appears slightly inebriated and before long he irritates Ms. Gabor to the extent that she walks off the show. This was Marlon Brando's first appearance on a late-night talk show. He was preceded on the panel by Zsa Zsa Gabor and when it was Brando's turn, Gabor continually interrupted his conversation with Johnny Carson. It looked like Brando might not get a word in beyond his opening remark, so Carson asked Gabor to leave the show, which she did. On the May 11, 1968 episode of the Tonight Show, guest Marlon Brando reminisces with Johnny about the 1963 show and how he, without realizing it, drank way to much champagne prior to his guest appearance. He admits he was drunk and barley able to not trip on himself when introduced. On the July 26, 1979, episode of the Tonight Show, Johnny tells a story about this night. After commenting that his and Ed's mugs contain only coffee and tea respectively (no alcohol.) He reminisces about when they were doing shows in California a few times a year, They had a courtesy bar set up for the guests. He says that Marlon Brando didn't come out till 20 minutes before the end of the program, and by then he had been imbibing champagne for over an hour. He laments that the episode was not on tape. *Both of the above clips are included in this ATA#14098 air check, preceding the infamous May 15, 1963 broadcast moments. They both run a combined four minutes making this total air check 19 minutes long. A brief clip from the May 15, 1963 Brando guest appearance is heard in the slightly under three hour biography documentary BRANDO (2007).

WGBH took the lead related to coverage, though it was basically hosted out of Washington, D.C. This affiliate station was more stable than many of the others which were run mostly by college students. There are many compromised audio issues in the archived reels. Performances on stage in many cases were recorded at much lower volumes and many speeches were recorded "off mike." Similar issues related to the volume exist when reporters at the scene are talking and then vast changes in volume are heard when switching to anchors who would report on follow up details and the dissemination of events that were happening and scheduled to occur. The original recordings in some cases were poorly recorded in the first place at the time of the live broadcast. Whomever was controlling the sound mix of the varied broadcast audio feeds allowed, at times, for the ambiance of the crowd to overpower a performer on stage. There existed at the time during transfers, dubbing, etc. other recording issues related to the archived tapes themselves which created level inconsistencies. Also, it must be remembered that THE EDUCATIONAL RADIO NETWORK at that time were comprised of NOT seasoned and experienced professionals like some of the other personnel employees working at the major networks. Many of the above issues, related above, have been improved by Phil Gries after many hours of equalizing and remastering the entire broadcast. What now exists as archived at Archival Television Audio, Inc.is the best version known to exist.

Dick Cavett entered late night television in 1969. During the summer of 1969 he hosted a thrice-weekly prime-time series on ABC, and later that year he succeeded Joey Bishop as host of the network's late-night talk show. Cavett brought with him the announcer and bandleader who had worked with him on his earlier shows - Fred Foy, who was for decades the announcer of The Lone Ranger on radio and television, and drummer Bobby Rosengarten. This new format was another attempt by ABC to compete against NBC's highly successful Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson. Originally broadcast five nights a week. However, by January of 1973, the show was seen only one week a month as Cavett's ratings failed to dent Carson's. Jack Paar's return to late night television after an eleven year absence was similarly seen only one week a month under the new ABC series moniker, ABC's WIDE WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT. On January 1st, 1975, The Dick Cavett Show disappeared from the network all together. In the fall of 1977 Cavett appeared on PBS in a half-hour talk show on which he returned to his strong talent: one - guest interviews.

"The Tomorrow Show" with Tom Snyder. October 15, 1973-January 28, 1982. This broadcast featured Al Goldstein (co-publisher of "Screw" magazine), prosecutor Larry Parrish, and Harry Reems (star of controversial X-rated movies such as "Deep Throat"). This broadcast featured Al Goldstein (co-publisher of "Screw" magazine), convicted in Wichita Kansas on a charge of conspiring to mail obscene material across state lines, and in a second segment guest Larry Parrish, who was the prosecutor in the federal trial in Memphis Tennessee which convicted actor Harry Reems on obscenity charges for his role in "Deep Throat (1972). Opening the broadcast, host Tom Snyder reads a quote from the March 17, 1975 "Screw" magazine written by Al Goldstein who described Snyder as an "empty head" and stated that Tom would not ever even consider putting Goldstein on his show because of his own scruples. Tom Snyder reads a telegram from Chuck Barris praising the host. Topics covered include: Goldstein publisher of "Screw" magazine since 1968...the trial in Wichita..."Screw" only sold mostly in NYC and that there were only one subscriber in Wichita...as many as 120,000 subscribers...the attempt to only allow the sale of pornography material in certain geographical locations in Times Square... Goldstein feels he deserves the right to be left alone and be able to publish what he desires. Other topics are discussed including...Porno vending machines...the LA Free Press, an ever increasing growing market for adult publications. Goldstein professes he is proud to be living in the Unites States of America, and proud of the recent decision by the courts exonerating him. In answer to Tom Snyder, Goldstein describes his prior "Screw" magazine background which included working as a journalist ride patrol cars with Walter Winchell, covering Jackie Kennedy in 1962, photographic assignment in Cuba tracking down Raoul Castro and working in Russia in 1960. Al Goldstein describes to Tom Snyder his work with t he Village Voice in the 1960's when he fantasized stories which were gobble up by readers. He confirms that "Screw" magazine was the first to show frontal nudity on the cover and homosezual photos inside the editions. Al Goldstein does not think of himself as perverse. In reality he is a homebody playing with his child every night. Goldstein states that there will be a soft core National "Screw" magazine distributed containing a lot of humor but also containing nudity. A discussion of Goldstein's cable station broadcasts...and finally professing again to state the "Screw" magazine is for most a psychological outlet publication. Second guest on this broadcast is Larry Parrish, who was the prosecutor in the federal trial in Memphis,Tennessee, which convicted actor Harry Reems on obscenity charges for his role acting in "Deep Throat" (1972). Discussed, how the pornography market evolved from low budget no director less exploitation films to a more"Hollywood" approach, with greater budgets and some modicum of a script, creating a more elaborate audience for this type of material. Snyder brings up Marlon Brando's performance in "Last Tango in Paris" and poses the question why has he not been brought up on moral charges for acting in a film with explicit sex being shown? Larry Parrish states that in his opinion "Last Tango in Paris" is not considered obscene and "Deep Throat" is considered obscene (scenes containing masturbation, excrement, unusual sex, etc.). Also discussed is why Linda Lovelace and Gerard Damiano were not also brought up on charges as was Harry Reems? Snyder brings up the question, what purpose is made to put Reems behind bars for only being an actor in a pornographic movie? Parrish again states that anyone convicted of a felony should go to jail even though Reems only made $100 for his role in "Deep Throat." It is why this case is so important to the people of Tennessee and why it is so important to bring this case to trial. Show ends with the music, "New York, New York, It's a wonderful Town." The Tomorrow Show has returned to New York form California, a transitional fact that Tom Snyder talks about at the top of the show. An hour-long talk show hosted by Tom Snyder. Network television's first entry into late-late-night programming on weeknights Monday thru Thursday, usually broadcasting on tape 1 AM to 2 AM.

In part two, Tom Snyder's guest is television visionary legend Pat Weaver who continues the conversation on topic, discussing advertising in all media applied in nighttime radio, using attractive women in advertising, catering to advertising agency demands. Weaver states that he is very pro about advertising, but opposed to negative products being advertised (cigarettes and alcohol).

Also, discussed is the Mini-Series on television and situation comedy on TV which in Weavers estimation will always exist. THE TOMORROW SHOW was an hour-long talk show hosted by Tom Snyder.
