I'll have to eventually hear it now. They're
just, you know, the events are over. It
was like, this is my first weekend where
there wasn't anything. Right. After the next weekend,
we're done. Well, I guess you can be
forgiven for taking a day off. Yes. For
taking a weekend off. That's the other thing.
We would have been had the slim pickings
going on during this weekend if Mhmm. If
(03:11):
we hadn't canceled that. So That's true.
That's true. Mhmm. So alright. Well, we still
got plenty of stuff going on. Before we
get going, I'd like to thank the Oregon
South Coast Fisherman, otherwise known as the Castaways,
and Oregon Coast VIP Marketing for sponsoring the
Insider Report. If you'd like to sponsor our

And, same time next year's going on, and
we happen to have the director, miss Victoria
Weller, on board with us. Hello? Hi. Hi.
Me and this lady go way back. I've
been promoting her in the paper since the
paper began. No. No. Watch it. Watch it.
Yes.
Yes.
I'm one of the oldest.
Well, that's when my years was then too
when I was doing theater. Yeah. Yeah. I
(03:54):
don't think we ever did a production. Never
did. But you because you guys were doing
your thing. Yeah. Yeah. I was with Fox

that. Mhmm. So yeah. But I promoted the
heck out of it. So yeah. Bless you.

So now you're working as a director
of the show. Well, I haven't directed
for for a minute. Mhmm. It's been a
(04:14):
long time. So I'm
yeah. These guys are putting them with me.
Yeah. I gotta say as somebody being directed
by her, it's been a lovely experience. Yeah.
Oh, thank you. She's humble as always, but
it's a it's a great experience. You direct
You get your chocolate bar later.
Oh, yes. Checks in the mail is what
I used to say. I hate that. Yeah.
So what is going on here? What's this?
(04:36):
I I'm familiar with the movie Alan Alda
back in the day, but I can't remember
the female character.
Ellen Burst. It was It is okay. Because
I was I was getting I was narrowing
it down. But okay. Yeah. But but yes.
I was yeah. That that was, like, eighties,
seventies, eighties movie. Eighties eighties movie, I think.
Yeah. So Mhmm. Turned into a what's it
like doing it as a play?
It's way different because
(04:58):
we're pretty much just stuck in one room
that doesn't change for twenty five years.
And we meet these people every five years.
They keep coming back to this,
little inn every year, but we meet them
every five years.
And nothing in the in the room changes,
but the people change. Right. And we meet
(05:19):
them in the five year
intervals, give them a chance to have some
experiences that they bring back to us and
you see them grow as as individuals
and as a couple. It's
it's pretty neat. Mhmm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Talking
about the the premise of this show, like,
people go like, well, it's it's two people
who are are are married and are meeting
(05:40):
once a year for a weekend together. Like,
if you get past that premise of it
and not only is it, like, a funny
premise to start with, it's touching though as
you dig into these characters and who they
are. Well, they're married and have separate family.
Follow yes. And they're in they they, like,
they talk about each other's families. They know
about each other's families. Yeah. They're actually that,
like, caring and tenderness there as well. It's
(06:00):
an interesting thing to observe. Yeah. Yeah. They're
actually each happily married. Uh-huh. And you think,
oh, no, this is gonna blow the marriages
up. And it doesn't.
It actually, I think, makes them appreciate their
spouses more. Mhmm. And Yeah. And fall in
love with them more. Yeah. You get to
see that progress as their as their relationships
with their spouses grow as they talk about
(06:23):
their spouses over the years too. It's fascinating.
It's a really fascinating premise. It's deep, yet
it's got it it's comedy, isn't it? Oh,
yeah. It's comedy. Right? I mean, I remember
the original. I haven't seen it in a
while, but I thought it's Alan Alda. You
know? And it was I figured it was
yeah. That character, George, is a nervous wreck.
He's still
so guilt ridden and just he's very funny
(06:43):
in his guilt. Oh, that's great. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. He's he's got a he's got a
complex or something, so he he gets to
work through that. You gotta remember it. In
1951
is when the play starts. So you've got
all that baggage that they had. Oh, then
it goes all the way. Yeah. Yeah. And
they grow the last scene is, 1975.
Yeah. Okay. Mhmm. Of course,
(07:04):
Doris goes through her hippie phase Mhmm. Of
enlightenment,
and I think he has his enlightenment

time for a bit of real history with
Bushwhacker Bruce. Right. Good day, cat. Good day,
mates. Bushwhacker Bruce here, and welcome to this
week's bit of real history for your knowledge
pleasure.
Did you know that Dame Agatha Christie, queen
of the mystery, disappeared back in the nineteen
twenties? It's true. Here's the story. In December
1926, the famed mystery writer, Agatha Christie,
(16:15):
left her home in Sunningdale,
England kissing their daughter goodbye before driving away.
Her car was found abandoned in its front
wheels hanging over the edge of a chalk
pit, but with no body inside. Well, the
disappearance triggered one of the largest manhunts in
British history involving over a thousand police officers
and 15,000
volunteers.
Christie's vanishing act became front page news globally,
(16:38):
making the event a real life mystery.
She had been gone for eleven days when
she was eventually located in a Harrogate Hotel
under a false name registering as miss Tressa
Neil, which just happened to be the name
of her husband's mistress. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink,
say no more, say no more.
Though a doctor examined her with amnesia,
(16:58):
Christie never publicly explained the incident, leaving her
disappearance as a lasting mystery with theories ranging
from a nervous breakdown or a publicity stunt
to a deliberate attempt to embarrass her estranged
husband, Archie, who was having the affair.
Christie never spoke about the incident in her
autobiography
or anywhere else, leaving her motives unclear.
Hope you enjoy this week's Bit Real History
(17:19):
with yours truly, Bushwacker Bruce. Until next time,
always keep it real.
You would.
Use their
Make it a real life thing. And use
the mistress's name. That was classic. Leave that
to be a a mystery unsolved forevermore. Yeah.

this endearing romantic comedy about Doris and George,
two ordinary people who start an extraordinary extramarital
affair in nineteen fifties America,

five years. Over the decades, the world changes,

there wasn't anything. Right. After the next weekend,
we're done. Well, I guess you can be
forgiven for taking a day off. Yes. For
taking a weekend off. That's the other thing.
We would have been had the slim pickings
going on during this weekend if Mhmm. If
(03:11):
we hadn't canceled that. So That's true.
That's true. Mhmm. So alright. Well, we still
got plenty of stuff going on. Before we

Weller, on board with us. Hello? Hi. Hi.
Me and this lady go way back. I've
been promoting her in the paper since the
paper began. No. No. Watch it. Watch it.
Yes.
Yes.
I'm one of the oldest.
Well, that's when my years was then too

You get your chocolate bar later.
Oh, yes. Checks in the mail is what
I used to say. I hate that. Yeah.
So what is going on here? What's this?
(04:36):
I I'm familiar with the movie Alan Alda
back in the day, but I can't remember
the female character.
Ellen Burst. It was It is okay. Because
I was I was getting I was narrowing
it down. But okay. Yeah. But but yes.
I was yeah. That that was, like, eighties,
seventies, eighties movie. Eighties eighties movie, I think.
Yeah. So Mhmm. Turned into a what's it
like doing it as a play?
It's way different because
(04:58):
we're pretty much just stuck in one room
that doesn't change for twenty five years.
And we meet these people every five years.
They keep coming back to this,
little inn every year, but we meet them
every five years.
And nothing in the in the room changes,
but the people change. Right. And we meet
(05:19):
them in the five year
intervals, give them a chance to have some
experiences that they bring back to us and
you see them grow as as individuals
and as a couple. It's
it's pretty neat. Mhmm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Talking
about the the premise of this show, like,
people go like, well, it's it's two people
who are are are married and are meeting
(05:40):
once a year for a weekend together. Like,
if you get past that premise of it
and not only is it, like, a funny
premise to start with, it's touching though as
you dig into these characters and who they
are. Well, they're married and have separate family.
Follow yes. And they're in they they, like,
they talk about each other's families. They know
about each other's families. Yeah. They're actually that,
like, caring and tenderness there as well. It's
(06:00):
an interesting thing to observe. Yeah. Yeah. They're
actually each happily married. Uh-huh. And you think,
oh, no, this is gonna blow the marriages
up. And it doesn't.
It actually, I think, makes them appreciate their
spouses more. Mhmm. And Yeah. And fall in
love with them more. Yeah. You get to
see that progress as their as their relationships
with their spouses grow as they talk about
(06:23):
their spouses over the years too. It's fascinating.
It's a really fascinating premise. It's deep, yet
it's got it it's comedy, isn't it? Oh,
yeah. It's comedy. Right? I mean, I remember
the original. I haven't seen it in a
while, but I thought it's Alan Alda. You
know? And it was I figured it was
yeah. That character, George, is a nervous wreck.
He's still
so guilt ridden and just he's very funny
(06:43):
in his guilt. Oh, that's great. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. He's he's got a he's got a
complex or something, so he he gets to
work through that. You gotta remember it. In
1951
is when the play starts. So you've got
all that baggage that they had. Oh, then
it goes all the way. Yeah. Yeah. And
they grow the last scene is, 1975.
Yeah. Okay. Mhmm. Of course,
(07:04):
Doris goes through her hippie phase Mhmm. Of
enlightenment,
and I think he has his enlightenment
the next time we need to. Yes. Yes.
I'm like, seventies.
Yeah. She has You're gonna go through her
terror. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She has her sixties,
quote, enlightenment. He has a seventies, quote, enlightenment
after that, and they get to yeah. Yeah.

time for a bit of real history with
Bushwhacker Bruce. Right. Good day, cat. Good day,
mates. Bushwhacker Bruce here, and welcome to this
week's bit of real history for your knowledge
pleasure.
Did you know that Dame Agatha Christie, queen
of the mystery, disappeared back in the nineteen
twenties? It's true. Here's the story. In December
1926, the famed mystery writer, Agatha Christie,
(16:15):
left her home in Sunningdale,
England kissing their daughter goodbye before driving away.
Her car was found abandoned in its front
wheels hanging over the edge of a chalk
pit, but with no body inside. Well, the
disappearance triggered one of the largest manhunts in
British history involving over a thousand police officers
and 15,000
volunteers.
Christie's vanishing act became front page news globally,
(16:38):
making the event a real life mystery.
She had been gone for eleven days when
she was eventually located in a Harrogate Hotel
under a false name registering as miss Tressa
Neil, which just happened to be the name
of her husband's mistress. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink,
say no more, say no more.
Though a doctor examined her with amnesia,
(16:58):
Christie never publicly explained the incident, leaving her
disappearance as a lasting mystery with theories ranging
from a nervous breakdown or a publicity stunt
to a deliberate attempt to embarrass her estranged
husband, Archie, who was having the affair.
Christie never spoke about the incident in her
autobiography
or anywhere else, leaving her motives unclear.
Hope you enjoy this week's Bit Real History
(17:19):
with yours truly, Bushwacker Bruce. Until next time,
always keep it real.
You would.
Use their
Make it a real life thing. And use
the mistress's name. That was classic. Leave that
to be a a mystery unsolved forevermore. Yeah.
(17:40):
Yep. Yep. Oh,
yeah. I I can see that.
Yeah. Alright. Hey, Threepenny Theatre Co. Is going
to be presenting same time next year. As

start of the performance. And this is taking
place at the Brookings Event Center, and that's
(18:01):
800 Checo Avenue, Unit B. Again, it's located
between Feather Your Nest and Wild Hair Barber.
And what's Same Time Next Year About? It's
this endearing romantic comedy about Doris and George,
two ordinary people who start an extraordinary extramarital
affair in nineteen fifties America,
meeting once a year for the next twenty
five years. Over the decades, the world changes,
(18:21):
their families grow, and they themselves transform,
yet
their bond endures with humor, tenderness, and honesty.
Filled with laughter, nostalgia, and moments that tug
at the heart, this Tony Award winning play
beautifully captures the joys and trials of love
and friendship over the course of a lifetime.
Perfect for anyone who enjoys a touching story
with wit and charm to boot same time
