You know, this is the second time he's repeating Assyrian

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Good, very good. Now, uh you run along, Sesaly. Mister
Honeywell and I have a lot to talk about.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
We were having such an interesting conversation. Isn't he the
youngest darkiologist ever? It was such a reputation.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yep. Uh, don't do that to the rug. Honeywell. Sorry,
run along, sessily. You'll see mister honeywell, and dinners honeywell, bye,
ma'am whoa honeywell? Let me take a look at you, Yes, sir,
cert indeed, sir, you do. You'll do fine? Now, Uh look,

(10:53):
mister Ramsey, my time's pretty valuable. There's digging to be done.
You'll do? You do fine? Yes, sir? Yes, archaeologists come high,
expensive education supplies, pith helmets and all. I wrote you
in the letter ten percent, didn't I ten percent? Well, yeah,
I just dropped in to day to tell you wasn't enough.

(11:13):
All the way from Chicago, I was passing by anyhow,
on my way to Pultepec, the Inca country. You know. Okay,
make it fifteen percent. Well that's a lot better. Come on,
I'll show it to you this way, I'll bet you. Eh. Well,

(11:33):
what have you got to say? I hardly know? I
thought so stunners, aren't they all? Three? Have you ever
seen better examples of prehistoric Indian pottery in your life? Hardly? Ever?
Those pots are four or five thousand years old, wouldn't
you say? Ooh, give a little, take a little without
a crack? Well, I really build them in those days.

(11:56):
I think we can get ten grand apiece for them. Yeah, uh,
ten grand sounds fair, especially since the ceiling's off. Huh
uh uh? Which one do you like? Who cares? Oh?
That middle one is my favorite? Black buffaloes too. Who's he? Who?
The Indian boy that made him four or five thousand
years ago last Thursday? Now, remember my daughter thinks they're yours.

(12:19):
You shipped him a head. That's the story in case
anyone asks you might if I ask you a question,
mister Ramsey, well, how else you gonna know who's going
to give you ten thousand apiece for last Thursday's pots?
Have you ever heard of Harvard boy Dennis, your daughter's fiance,
loaded boy, and I'm the archaeologist who's gonna tell him

(12:41):
they're worth ten thousand? He worships you? Why that boy
rocks himself to sleep reading or pat pipathies? Pots are phony?
They foods? You didn't they any well? Or flash judgment?
I didn't put the calipers on them or even uh
e phony? Yeah, well, these Harvard boys haven't got your ear.
And Dennis is loaded a four million and he ain't

(13:03):
reel bright. He collects old crocs sill. He's my intended
son in law. I shouldn't speak too harshly. He's a
fine boy, great swimmer, always swims underwater, remarkable, and you're
going to swindle him out of thirty thousand dollars. We
are you and me for twenty percent. I am listen you.
I found out about you. You have You've got a

(13:25):
good reputation, but you haven't got two shovels to rub
to get take it or leave it. I'll take it fine. Well,
what times did it? Sir mister Ramsey? You are listening

(13:47):
to Kathy and Elliott Lewis on stage tonight's play Dig
the Thief in your town, in the next town across
the nation, you will find the Red Cross. But the
Red Cross is above and beyond all boundary lines, for
it is infinite in its scope. In time of hardships, epidemics, floods, fires,
the Red Cross is the symbol and soul of humanity.

(14:07):
You are part of that symbol because it is the
money you contribute that enables the Red Cross to continue
its great work. Answer the call, and humanity will answer
you with gratitude. Hey with Cecily, Hi, Hi, Hi, good

(14:35):
morning morning. What are you doing out here so early?

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Scanning the horizon? Where Hey plays the whole horizons for Dennis.
He's arriving this morning. He flies, you know, oh, his
own plane. He'd be furious if he knew I was
scanning for it. Oh, he doesn't like people have watched
swims a lot underwater.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
You know. Well, things like that you have to respect
with Cecily. Why don't we just take a walk, work
up an appetite for breakfast. Just see the haze on the gorse,
you know. Walk.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
I'd love to, But uh huh, what should we talk about?

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Pick a subject?

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Atioch who Patioch Jans was telling me about the remarkable
work you did there. Most are so fascinating working in
those old excavations.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yure, Well, there's no excavation like an old excavation.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Dennis always says that too.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
Well, he must have read it in one of my pamphlets.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
That was the title of one of your pamples. Don't
you remember it?

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Or of you? Necessily. Let's not talk about old ruins.
Let's talk about you.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
Why I'm really nothing?

Speaker 1 (15:38):
No, no, I I must tell you something that's amazing, and
perhaps you won't believe it, but it's true. When I
dug up the sarcophagus of a wondrous and beautiful Egyptian princess. No, uh,
don't walk, stay here. I I really must tell you
about it all right on her tomb was painted, her
portrait unbelievably beautiful, with a serenity almost got its slightly.

(15:59):
The first time I saw you, I said to myself,
Princess or Cyrus of the Seventh Moon, you are wade.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
What let's take off our moccasins and wade.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
Yeah, that's just what I've been trying to say, necessily,
Let's take off our moccasins and wade. Yeah. I haven't
had a cold foot bath before breakfast since Antiyok, you better.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
Hold my hands to honey, thank you? Yet, this is
this wonderful Dennis ever goes in here with me?

Speaker 1 (16:30):
But you love him anyhow, don't you very much? Why?

Speaker 2 (16:34):
He's sweet, he's charming and and really he's only bashful
when other people are around. When Dennis and I.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Are a lot, But don't tell me about it.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
He's a very gentle boy. It's all that's daddy.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yes, I know here we are, Daddy. What how did
he get you in that street?

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Cecily was my idea?

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Daddy, what's the matter get your shoes on, Honeywell, and
come with me. You want to try this, mister Ramsey,
I was just telling your daughter when I was an abbey.
I heard what I said, get your shoes on. Something's happened,
mister Honeywell. You still haven't told me. What's the matter,
mister Ramsey in here in the library, Oh you know,

(17:27):
allow me to introduce myself. I'm mister Honeywell. Oh no,
you're not well the heck I'm not. I am Honeywell
the archaeologist. Oh no, you're not sure I am. You
just asked mister Ramsey here. Oh no, you're not two
against one. Huh? All right? Who am I? Who are
you eliminate? Honeywell? I'm Honeywell. I asked you a question.

(17:49):
Who are you? Your chauffeur said I was Honeywell. Your
daughter said I was Honeywell. You said I was Honeywell.
Now I'm confused. My chauffer was supposed to pick up
mister Honeywell in front of that dude ranch yesterday. He
picked you up, so we all fought you were Honeywell.
How dare this young man has so Honeywell? Yes, how
dare you assume mister Honeywell's identity. You assumed it for me, Ramsey.

(18:11):
Let's not turn blue over a mistake you made.

Speaker 7 (18:12):
I must say, mister Ramsey, the whole thing is your
Schoffer's fault, just because I arrived at the Dud's ranch
a few hours later.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yes, now you what's your real name? Digby? Johnny Digby
and your Honeywell, the dishonest archaeologist. I won't be called dishonest.
Your profession's robbing graves, isn't it? Thirty old babes? Nobody
wants them anyhow? All I can say is you fellows
that got yourselves in a vine here. You are gonna
cheat Dennis out of thirty thousand dollars. Boy mm hmm,

(18:41):
stop at the kitchen and have the cook picture a
real chuck wagon lunch. Then blow a real big vine
and his fifty dollars for your trump. That all right
with you, mister Honeywell. I don't care if I never
see you again, sir, But think what would happen to
your reputation if I went out and spread it around
among your buddies of the shovel You were party to
a fraud that you verified that last Thursday's pots were

(19:05):
old in the relics. How about that? How much the honeyway? Hi?

Speaker 7 (19:09):
Ready must call Hey, Now wait a minute, this young
man is perfectly right, and I listen, Honeyway.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
We had a deal. Those pots in the closet were
supposed to be your pots. Dennis would take your word
for us that they're authentic. Ten thousand dollars apiece. You
can't run out on me, nily, mister Ramsey, really what really?
I must go? Hello, mister Ramsey, Hello, mister Honeywell, name

(19:34):

Oh listen and now come here to the window. Plane overhead,
get away from the window. Dennis don't like anybody to
watch it. Dennis, don't huh? Where were you saying? Ramsey?

(19:54):
A flat fee one thousand? Last night? You offered me
twenty percent of thirty thousand dollars I offered, doctor Honeywell,
who am I? How are you? Mister Honeywell? Very well,
thank you, I'm just fine. I'll take six thousand dollars.
Please a loud question. I write your check. Please do
make it out to John Digby. Hey you are boy Ramsey. Yes,

(20:23):
you signed Honeywell's name to the check I did. Sounds
like Dennis's plane is coming in for a landing, Ramsey.
I'd hate to disillusion Dennis about his future father in law.
You better write me another check. But you're the biggest
seat from the state of New Mexican. You write the check,
sign your name, than call your chauffeur. I want to
get to the bank and cash this check before I
say hello's to Dennis. As a matter of fact, to
the whole Southwest. Write the check, Ramsey put her there.

(20:53):
I'm so sorry I wasn't able to meet you at
the plane, Dennis, but.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
I had to stop at the bank. Mister Honeywell. Oh yes,
mister honeywey oh yes, geez, you don't mention it.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Oh I must your last paper, the one on the
Ptolemies of eg Yes, it had a certain style in this.

Speaker 3 (21:12):
The way you just looked at that sand dune in
the middle of the Sahara and then made an X
on the sands and said dig here.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
Oh that was the most everybody messed everybody else. Oh well,
from mister Ramsey.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
My intended father in law dad to be my boy
when he wrote that you would be here expressly.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
To meet me. Oh well, well, what didn't it?

Speaker 3 (21:37):
And when mister Ramsey, my intended father in law yet
to be, of course, when he told me that he
was interceding in my behalf and that the pots could
be bought for only thirty thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
Or Dad to be drives a hard bargain. Of course,
you know I would have paid twice that much, mister Honeywell,
may I see you for a minute before Well, if
Dennis feels the old pots are under priced, we don't
wanna take advantage of for that's no, no, no, no, no,
my pleasure. I know they'll be in good hands.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
We're gonna have a place in New York, and we've
got a spot in the living room for them.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
A niche cicely a nich.

to be true. Dennis, will pay you any price. These
two kids have got to fiddle their niches. Honeywell, Dennis, Yes, sir,

Take it or leave it. Cecily, I hate you, Oh

Elliott Lewis in a moment, mister and missus, Lewis won't
tell you about that. Next week's play. Colleges preoccupy two

(26:03):
of our leading programs this weekend on CBS Radio, The
Von Monroe Show will originate in Boston College, with Vaughn
and Company serving up the top tunes of this week.
To mark the occasion, Gangbusters approaches learning from another tangent,
bringing us its true crime case history, The College Caper.
Also Saturday night on most of these same stations, The
Geneaufrey Show brings us its Western drama called The Ruthless Rustler.

(26:26):
And Tarzan Lord of the Jungle introduces us to the
dreaded Lionmen in an episode titled Tarzan and the Arena
of Death. And now once again Kathy and Elliott.

Morton Fine and David Friedkin can be prevailed upon to
continue the adventures of dig the.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Thief tonight while in New Mexico, John Digby was shrewder
than my father, John McIntyre, my fiance Lee Millar, and
the legitimate archaeologist Hal Gerard.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
While the same mister Digby got fired earlier in the
play by Ken Christie because he shot up a town
with the help of G. G. Pearson, Byron Kine and
Bob Sweeney, who was a writer a few weeks ago.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
Next week, we're going to do a new adaptation of
a story you all know about, but if you're at
all like Elliott and me, don't remember very well. In
its original form.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
It was written by Frank Stockton, and it's called The
Lady or the Tiger.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
We'll be with you next week. Until then, thank you
for listening, and good night, good night.

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
