experience the Australians or even awesome Floydthe barber is in this one. Yes
he is in this one. Orwe're watching the shave tonight. Tell us
(05:28):
a little bit about this episode.This is right out of my life,
only that I didn't have Wally's thing. This is you know, where I
was the star of the team orsomething like that. But this is kind
of like another one of these thingsin next week's episode, the pipe.
All these things that were part offamilies and traditions, particularly in the fifties.
I don't think it's that important tokids now. They don't make a
(05:49):
big deal out of it. Butman, taking your first shave or something
like that, that was like braggingrights for a guy. I can't remember
I was a guy. I spacersstill have spacers. I wass one of
big mutton chops. You could neverhave them. You couldn't join the cool
club. Like no, I canget a nice mustache or a beer or
something. I get those spacers,but I couldn't wait. And here's Wally.
(06:13):
He's just getting praised by everybody forhis athletics, and who gets jealous
but Eddie Haskell and then he startsbringing up the fact that he needs to
shave, and everybody forgets about Wallyand starts tucking. Eddie Haskell and Beaver
and Waally get into it, andWally feels kind of, you know,
blah blahlah blah, and Ward's tiredand everything else, and he borrows and
(06:35):
takes some award stuff and does someshave and everything, and Ward kind of
chumps him off in front of hisfriends and they start giving him the rasmatas
and war comes through again. AsDiane Harris says, I thought that word
was the coolest dat in the world. At the end of this episode,
wasn't he We've the same thing.He earns a lot of cool points at
(06:56):
the end, but we'll get tothat at the end of the show.
When we get to that point.He earns a lot of cool points in
this episodes and gets a lot ofredemption. This is this is a great
episode. Yes, you know,I haven't seen it in a little bit,
but it's a fantastic episode and it'sit's a great watch. And yeah,
I'm looking for you guys. NoticeI guess what I'm noticing Diana.
Maybe Diana, maybe maybe you seethe same thing, or or Tom or
(07:16):
some of the other folks who comein or Angela, uh what in these
shows? Starting to shows a littlebit of a wear and tear as a
dad, and which is good.He's tired out sometimes of the Shenanigans of
the kids, you know, Ithink is the older they yet it gets
all tiring, sure, you know, with all these escapades. So this
is a sweet one. Let's geton into it. If you want to
(07:39):
watch along with us, folks,we're watching on the Peacock app. You
can watch on whatever you like to. We just use Peacock. And it's
going to be season two episode eight. It's gonna be the sha seven I
think is episode eight, episode eight? Excuse the hair or the shave?
Say the haircut again? The shave? All right, let's hit it now,
all right, here we go.Always love this intro with him.
(08:07):
Yes, here they are. Wardwas yelling at him. You can see
in the ball yes, in theopening there to get to get down there.
And there's little Jerry. And againthat shave is a big deal for
for boys. Did you just liketo get the hot shave when you go
(08:28):
to the barber? And now youknow I you know, I got that
when I got a haircut and hedo my side burns and he did then
do the back of my hair.And we used to have a thing back
in the fifties and sixties called thesquare back, okay, and at the
back of your hair they would afterthey get to give you a haircut,
they would give you kind of looklike Frankenstein, a square back. But
it was very cool. I stillget from the barber and straight shape every
(08:50):
time. I don't know, yeah, every every two weeks when I go
get my haircut and still get astraight shave with the razor. Yeah,
I love it. I have verysensitive skin. Yeahs did so. I
don't like other people shaving me andall that other kind of stuff like that,
not too much. I don't evenlike you. You're very trusting with
people too, especially when they're nearyour throat with that straight edge razor.
(09:11):
Always tip your barber. Yes,all right, the boys are getting ready
for school, man, I haven'tseen them Beaver for a few days.
And is it good to see themeating breakfast all together? There? And
look at her. That toast looksburt though. On Beaver for Beaver.
You've got the same jacket. NowI bought you. That's a bomber jacket
he's got. Yeah, that's anice one. Yes, you're a fan
(09:37):
of toast, Yeah, I don'tlike it with eggs. Yeah. I
like toast, but I don't eata lot of bread anymore. How about
you, guys? You like toast? I don't know. I just they're
always eating toast in here for breakfast. So that's a fifties breakfast. Nobody's
worried about being gluten free. Man, getting chewed out by your dad in
front of Eddie the worst, Yes, because you know Eddie's going to take
(09:58):
that or run with it. That'sthat's a guarantee. Yes, how about
you guys, when you were whenyou were sick or something, did your
parents come in with like a lighttoast after you were recuperating? Mom and

guy. And also, don't forgetwe are on audio all major podcasts.
Ot let's look up to leave itto Beaver Podcast and once again hit that
like on this video. Whatever you'rewanting on. Eddie's like the equipment manager
for them basically right, well,I don't even know if he's doing that,
(11:05):
but Beaver is sticking up for Wallywhile he's very modest and he's he
got a touchdown there you go.How big was football as a kid like
for you? Oh, tremendous.Yeah, football and baseball. Basketball was
third. Yeah, you have tofeel bad for Wally in this moment that's
(11:28):
coming up here shortly. Yes,you know you definitely have to feel bad
for him. I agree with you. B Yeah, everybody's praising Wally.
They're saying he's amazing because he's playinglike the seniors. Now here's Eddie is
the spoiler. Oh yeah, he'sgot that. He's got those big whiskers
growing young Edward Haskell, I,I can't ever remember it being that cool
(11:54):
to say you shake. Yes,No, it's a big deal. As
a kid, it was a bigdeal if you could shave. I remember
you would do that like in theeighth grade before, like a big dance
for us. You know that youthat you would do that. Yes,
come on in and get a shaveover here, and then you'd give us
that your favorite set arabis. Ihave expends of arabis. Yes. Yeah,
(12:20):
he's got a razor in a genuineplastic case. He's got a Jellett
safety razor. Imagine going to hangout with your buddy and see you can
see the Gelett plastic razor. Thatwas a big deal. That was a
big deal. I remember standing inthe bathroom in the kitchen sink and shaving
with my father's razor and he getticked to chiff like that and he didn't
want you. It was a safetyrazor and I can remember actually trying to
(12:43):
shave with it and cut in myface so bad. So what is this
like? What? What's what werethe razors like back then? Were they
all straight edge like that? Theywere edge? It's a safety raiser,
you know, the ones that youscrew over face opens and you have you
get gotcha. I can remember thatyou'd buy Gillette blue blades. Everybody bought
(13:09):
blue blades. And then how youdoing, George, how's it going,
George? Merry Christmas and Happy NewYear's buddy. But I can remember when
Wilkinson's sword razor blades came out.That was the big deal because they were
very expensive. Takes away from Wally'smoment here what Edie did big time.
You know, Walie got this bigmoment on the freshman football team, big
(13:31):
plays. Eddie had to take awayfrom it by stealing the thunder a little
bit. Yes, a cyclopede cyclopedia. He's doing it again. It's the
only pet peeve that we could talkabout all the time. Well I saw,
(14:01):
yeah, you want again. Popare so proud of a brother,
and they're all proud. Uh huh. It's the difference between things now and
back then. Though you mentioning forthe show. You know, War didn't
go to the big game today oranything like that. You have to go
(14:22):
to work. He wasn't ducking outearly for that one big difference, and
you know you don't do that.If you did that, now you know
your kid's liable to think you hatethem. It's a lot of people can't
do that. Yep, thank youso much, George, appreciate it.
My friend up. See this thishas gotten to Wally. He's got the
(14:48):
he's got all the shaving cream out. Yes, it's just that I love
that visual of it with all hisshaving cream on his face like that.
I hate when I hate when peoplefar on my razor. Man, my
daughter will like go to use itto shave her legs, you know,
and then I'll come in and out. See in the show, I said,
(15:09):
what are you doing with my razorget Oh there's a big deal.
Yeah, that's when you got togo out and get her her own.
She does have them, but shelikes, she likes Joey Steel's mind.
Kids just don't think, oh boy, he doesn't have the blade in right.
Yeah, no, I didn't thinkso clean has a whistle all right
(15:31):
when you got nothing in there.While he thinks he's a he's a season
pro right now. Yes, Idon't know how many guys have done this.
And then you put a blade inand then you get your first you
get your first razor burn. Yeah, you get your first cut, and
you have to put a septic pencil, a skeptic pencil on it and all
(15:52):
that kind of stuff, and youyou know, you've got to toilet paper.
Look at how they put the bladesin back on these ones, though,
you know, he's unscrewing it fromunderneath. It a little different to
how things are done now. Ohno, that's how they were. You
have to unscrew it from the bottom. Some of the travel ones actually came
apart. Yeah, did you evertry with a straight razor at all in
your life? I know you don'tlike them, but I yes, I
(16:15):
thought you told me before you try. Yes, I tried it. I
bought one from the drug store.I'll never forget. It costs like six
or seven. There was a lotof money. Yeah, and then you
know, nobody told you that youhad to have a stop for it and
you had to do everything else.No. I tried that, and I
couldn't shave with it. Yeah,it's definitely an art form when you learn
in the beginning stages shaving. Idon't know if you've ever shaved yourself routinely
(16:41):
with a straight razor. No,I've never had one. Very very difficult.
Yeah, I've never had one.I mean I get it from the
barber all the time. Yeah,that's a whole different thing. I haven't
done that myself. I've thought aboutit a few times, like saying,
oh, you know, I coulddo my own touch ups again, and
I'm like, yeah, not gonnahappen. That's a remedy for disaster with
that thing. Even a lot ofthem barber's nowadays, you know, the
younger one, they don't they don'tlearn. You know what my barber's I
(17:03):
think it's like fifty one or something. Lemon's, you know, been doing
it for thirty years and he tellsme his apprentices never want to learn how
to do a skind raiser. Yeah. What she got on the plate,
Okay, that was a big deal. That was a big deal in the
day. That's how people who saidthey would set you know, cocktail.
Yeah, man, juice cocktail.It's just interesting the way she sets it
(17:26):
up on the middle of the plate. Well, yeah, for everybody,
it was it was the appetizer.Oh I hate tomato juice. You love
it, yeap. When we hadthat for dinner or something, or for
breakfast, my father would put saltand pepper in the Oh, no,
it's delicious. And some lemon.Oh, no, lemon and some lemon
(17:48):
juice. It was delicious. Boy, he's got balcars. You know.
If he wanted to do a goodlie here, he just had a big
football game. Yeah he could tosay he got nicked up in the football
game. I'm just thinking on myfeet here. Yeah he's trying, though,
he's just not selling it good.No, Ward knew. Look at
(18:18):
the concerned look on her face whenhe mentions that he's shaved. Hey,
it's another big milestone. That's whatI love about this show. It's like
going back through memory lane. Andagain I couldn't tell you with the authority
anymore whether a kid's this is routinelyimportant to fourteen year olds. And I
(18:40):
just got done teaching child development threeyears ago. Uh huh. So it's
a whole different world until you haveWard's being fair about this, though he's
not being read. We heard thesame thing. I heard this, the
same thing. My father said thesame thing. And they gave you the
(19:02):
same thing about smoking cigarettes. Theyalso everybody smoked, and they tell you
don't smoke cigarettes. Why not becauseyou're gonna get lung cancer. It'll stunt
your growth. Yeah, I don'tworry about the other reproductions of it.
It's just it's gonna stunt your growth. That's the word I used to tell
me when I was older. Hey, if you're going to smoke. When
she caught me smoking, smoke apipe pipe? What wonderful parenting logic?
(19:25):
That is, if you're going tosmoke, hit the pipe because you don't
inhale a pipe. Yeah theory,and you did. That's like, can
you imagine to being like sixteen yearsold, if you know, walking around
with a frigging pipe you I couldpicture you doing it too. That's the
that's the best part about it.I could picture you do it. Anybody's
parents, their grandparents smoke a pipeor anything like that. Anybody here smoke
(19:45):
a pipe? Stuff is gross.Let's see. Hi, Deborah, how
are you tonight? Great? HopefullyI had a wonderful and merry Christmas and
a happy New Year. Yes,coming to you tomorrow. Well, he's
kind of excited though, you know, because we talked him up there.
I think you did the right.We've got a quick commercial here. Oh
it's for Salesforce. I thought thatwas the Lawman, Bess. Yes,
(20:07):
we've got to put a plug inif you want to see. If you
like westerns, what a good show, A great show, Bess Reeves lawman.
Yeah, that was a good onefor sure. Boys, that good.
And if you like something more modern, Reacher, that's no, leave
it to be well, not everythingmaybe leaving uh huh. That one is
(20:30):
uh. That one is as goodas it comes with. Actually it's pretty
tough. Yeah, there's a lotof good violence in that in that show,
for sure. Oh yeah, hello, Brenda, how are you?
Happy New Year to you as well? All we did is well, Devora,
thank you. I'm glad you alldid too. I can't believe how
quick this year went. We're comingup on a year doing the show on

and subscribeing to the show. Lookat this now, here's Eddie, Eddie
copying off of him or something,yep, trying to over Eddie has the
(21:18):
worst hair, doesn't he. Yes, I can't believe that. Somebody would,
you know, have a haircut likelike old Haskell. Here, let
it run free, man. Helooks like he's got curls and he's just
trying to slick a lot of peoplelike that. Yeah, in the day,
George said, my grandpa smoked apipe and cigars. Yeah, the
smell of the pipe and cigars.Well, that's going to be the next
(21:40):
episode. Yep. So that's alwaysa fun one to touch on with those
two rascals Beaver and Larry Mondelo fourwhole blades out in case we didn't follow
a show with you here there whilehe's doing a deal to get to be
(22:02):
one of the guys. And he'stelling Eddie he's got a shave and he's
got his status back. But Wardand June have to go to somebody's house
here in a second, boy,she is panicking about being late here,
yes, you go, Oh mygoshot, can you imagine this? He
(22:27):
comes home from work, he's gota shower and shave before he goes over
to These are the customers and customersin the day when he came home from
work and you had to go takea shower. But he doesn't look like
he like is dirty at all.And anyway, he looks like he just
like woke up and showered and shave. I can't remember doing the same thing
if I come home from working,I'm going someplace for your mother, and
I give you a second take aquick shower and shave. He better hurry
(22:51):
up because June might might mug him. Watch this though, what happens?
Oh boy, I can see ashadow in the background here. Uh oh,
I'm not kidding with him now,Yeah, boy, he's given him
that stern look. Didn't we gothrough all this before about your shaving and
(23:18):
didn't you agree with me? Allright? Yeah? Dad? But I
was just you were just doing whatyou were told not to do. Boy,
he gave it to him. There'smore I guess I used. Oh
(23:40):
I have to go without shaving.Boy, he is not happy shaving now
he's going to really embarrass him.Stop trying to a grown up boy.
He just loves this, he does. It is totally an excuse for him
to tell everybody. This is whata guy like him has been waiting for
(24:03):
all week. Yes, boy,Wally just got demoralized in front of his
friend and he knows what's gonna happen. War telling him to stop wanting to
grow up and do it. Youdon't need to just made him look like
a complete idiot to his friends.Yeah, it's a good lie. Wally
(24:33):
understands his old friend Daddy Haskell toowell. He is eating this up one
hundred Yeah, George, he doescome through at the end of this episode.
That's the beautiful part of this episode, because even when you're mad at
your kids and you mess up sometimesas a parent, you know it.
(25:03):
Wait, Lumpy is in the eleventhgrade for god knows how long in this
show. Was it a big statusthing to be on the football team in
the fifties? Okay, oh yeah, he didn't even he didn't even get
(25:23):
a hello out back to Holland whywould you do that to somebody because she's
jealous, insanely jealous of them.Absolutely, this is the pecking order of
(25:44):
guys of goofing on people. Wasanybody out there ever, like Eddie Haskell
where you kind of waiting on everybody? I was. I'm saying, we
know people like it, But wasanybody ever the Eddie Haskell out there that
was looking to do that. No, Lumpey was always afraid of Wally for
the most part. Yes he was. He always had to try and fully
him. But whatever, Oh boy, he doesn't like that. There's that
(26:17):
he says, he sees the teacherhe stops like good morning, mister Rees.
He doesn't like it because he knowshe's he's I hate to use the
term better, but he's a betterathlete and a better probably a better student
than the end. Absolutely, he'smore well liked by everybody. He's popular.
He's very modest. Yeah, Idon't know, I'm probably maybe you
(26:44):
could put a bit more. She'salways trying in a way to be mob
and to put more food on yourplate. Yep, Grandma would do the
same thing. Of course, that'swhat I missed about the old school moms
and grandma's like that. Yeah,yeah, they always portrayed to me.
(27:07):
I'm just gonna say that Beaver isso dumb. Well, he's academics,
yeah, his strong point. He'sjust he's kind of like the average to
the below average kid that you haven'tyou tell me that you love. But
he's a really good kid. It'sjust the way they portray his character at
some point, it's like he's dumbwith the way that he talks, or
you know, here he's got thearithmetic test, I only got eight wrong,
(27:29):
you know, but you have tostop and think about that at any
point in time the middle of thebellship curve, because you're in the middle.
Yeah, the people are above you. Yeap, oh boy, what's
that? Enough? Ward is snappingon Beaver even when Beiaber's just trying to
make small talk with mob. Absolutely. Ward is definitely showing some wear and
(27:55):
tear today. Yeah, I toldyou about in these in these shows,
he really does. You know whyhe's so agitated though, because he expects
better from Wally. Yeah, becausehe knows Wally is the oldest, he's
responsible. He just expects better fromhim. Here's where Beaver, though,
is doing Wally's job. He's interpretingfor him. Yeah. Yeah, Beab
(28:21):
just taught Ward lesson there what hedid. Yeah. Yeah, That's the
thing I love about Ward though,is that Ward can always when he cools
down a little bit, listen.Yeah, it's it's a lesson. It's
one of those things that's a lessonfor everybody, you know, to count
to one hundred before you or youknow. You know what's great about Word
(28:42):
though, too, is he's alwaysa student at the end. He's the
leader in the beginning, and whenhe messes up or does something the incorrect
way, or maybe even if it'snot incorrect and it just could have been
done a little bit differently, healways listens to. Whether it's Wally or
Beaver or June or whoever, everybodyin a good family or or I think
(29:02):
a smart family where people are trying, everybody learns from one another. They
said this was a departure Beaver asthe observer and Wally is the central character,
right, Yeah, absolutely, Thismight be one of the first episodes
if not that I can remember,where Beaver is not the prime focus of
it. Yeah, I mean maybethere was one or a few others from
(29:26):
the earlier seasons, but this mightbe Wally's uh, you know, kind
of time. Time to shine herea little bit. But this is a
reward saying. He gets it thatthis is not just kid hijinks. This
is their kids are going through differentstages now and while just getting out of
that you know, young youngster thing, and he's getting to be a young
man, and he forgets how importantit is and how fragile his feelings are.
(29:51):
That's the thing we forget as parentssometimes. Oh yeah, but here,
what's going on here? Oh,this is gonna be good, guys.
Yeah, this is where Barbaro comesthrough. M What I like about
(30:11):
this with the barber is how thebarber knows how to play along with it
too. Oh yeah, he setthis whole thing up for him because the
barber was part of the community thatraised you. Everybody's there, kids,
everybody parents. It's always fun togo to the barber shop. Yes,
and this, uh, the guywho plays this is of course Floyd the

Come on tell me. I've beenaround a lot of the Aussie folks
(05:05):
in my time and learn so muchfun. People are the best, the
best, the best, the bestdrinking partners in the world. I was
to hang out with the English andthe Aussie. It's just it's just English
experience the Australians or even awesome Floydthe barber is in this one. Yes
he is in this one. Orwe're watching the shave tonight. Tell us
(05:28):
a little bit about this episode.This is right out of my life,
only that I didn't have Wally's thing. This is you know, where I
was the star of the team orsomething like that. But this is kind
of like another one of these thingsin next week's episode, the pipe.
All these things that were part offamilies and traditions, particularly in the fifties.
I don't think it's that important tokids now. They don't make a
(05:49):
big deal out of it. Butman, taking your first shave or something
like that, that was like braggingrights for a guy. I can't remember
I was a guy. I spacersstill have spacers. I wass one of
big mutton chops. You could neverhave them. You couldn't join the cool
club. Like no, I canget a nice mustache or a beer or
something. I get those spacers,but I couldn't wait. And here's Wally.
(06:13):
He's just getting praised by everybody forhis athletics, and who gets jealous
but Eddie Haskell and then he startsbringing up the fact that he needs to
shave, and everybody forgets about Wallyand starts tucking. Eddie Haskell and Beaver
and Waally get into it, andWally feels kind of, you know,
blah blahlah blah, and Ward's tiredand everything else, and he borrows and
(06:35):
takes some award stuff and does someshave and everything, and Ward kind of
chumps him off in front of hisfriends and they start giving him the rasmatas
and war comes through again. AsDiane Harris says, I thought that word
was the coolest dat in the world. At the end of this episode,
wasn't he We've the same thing.He earns a lot of cool points at
(06:56):
the end, but we'll get tothat at the end of the show.
When we get to that point.He earns a lot of cool points in
this episodes and gets a lot ofredemption. This is this is a great
episode. Yes, you know,I haven't seen it in a little bit,
but it's a fantastic episode and it'sit's a great watch. And yeah,
I'm looking for you guys. NoticeI guess what I'm noticing Diana.
Maybe Diana, maybe maybe you seethe same thing, or or Tom or
(07:16):
some of the other folks who comein or Angela, uh what in these
shows? Starting to shows a littlebit of a wear and tear as a
dad, and which is good.He's tired out sometimes of the Shenanigans of
the kids, you know, Ithink is the older they yet it gets
all tiring, sure, you know, with all these escapades. So this
is a sweet one. Let's geton into it. If you want to
(07:39):
watch along with us, folks,we're watching on the Peacock app. You
can watch on whatever you like to. We just use Peacock. And it's
going to be season two episode eight. It's gonna be the sha seven I
think is episode eight, episode eight? Excuse the hair or the shave?
Say the haircut again? The shave? All right, let's hit it now,
all right, here we go.Always love this intro with him.
(08:07):
Yes, here they are. Wardwas yelling at him. You can see
in the ball yes, in theopening there to get to get down there.
And there's little Jerry. And againthat shave is a big deal for
for boys. Did you just liketo get the hot shave when you go
(08:28):
to the barber? And now youknow I you know, I got that
when I got a haircut and hedo my side burns and he did then
do the back of my hair.And we used to have a thing back
in the fifties and sixties called thesquare back, okay, and at the
back of your hair they would afterthey get to give you a haircut,
they would give you kind of looklike Frankenstein, a square back. But
it was very cool. I stillget from the barber and straight shape every
(08:50):
time. I don't know, yeah, every every two weeks when I go
get my haircut and still get astraight shave with the razor. Yeah,
I love it. I have verysensitive skin. Yeahs did so. I
don't like other people shaving me andall that other kind of stuff like that,
not too much. I don't evenlike you. You're very trusting with
people too, especially when they're nearyour throat with that straight edge razor.
(09:11):
Always tip your barber. Yes,all right, the boys are getting ready
for school, man, I haven'tseen them Beaver for a few days.
And is it good to see themeating breakfast all together? There? And
look at her. That toast looksburt though. On Beaver for Beaver.
You've got the same jacket. NowI bought you. That's a bomber jacket
he's got. Yeah, that's anice one. Yes, you're a fan
(09:37):
of toast, Yeah, I don'tlike it with eggs. Yeah. I
like toast, but I don't eata lot of bread anymore. How about
you, guys? You like toast? I don't know. I just they're
always eating toast in here for breakfast. So that's a fifties breakfast. Nobody's
worried about being gluten free. Man, getting chewed out by your dad in
front of Eddie the worst, Yes, because you know Eddie's going to take
(09:58):
that or run with it. That'sthat's a guarantee. Yes, how about
you guys, when you were whenyou were sick or something, did your
parents come in with like a lighttoast after you were recuperating? Mom and
mom and grandma would do that toyou nauseum? Maybe that's why I don't
(10:18):
like it anymore. Right, quickreminder if you guys are checking this show

big football game, and Ward couldn'tbe there, and Wally it was
the star of the game, starand he's a friend. He's the youngest
guy. And also, don't forgetwe are on audio all major podcasts.
Ot let's look up to leave itto Beaver Podcast and once again hit that
like on this video. Whatever you'rewanting on. Eddie's like the equipment manager
for them basically right, well,I don't even know if he's doing that,
(11:05):
but Beaver is sticking up for Wallywhile he's very modest and he's he
got a touchdown there you go.How big was football as a kid like
for you? Oh, tremendous.Yeah, football and baseball. Basketball was
third. Yeah, you have tofeel bad for Wally in this moment that's
(11:28):
coming up here shortly. Yes,you know you definitely have to feel bad
for him. I agree with you. B Yeah, everybody's praising Wally.
They're saying he's amazing because he's playinglike the seniors. Now here's Eddie is
the spoiler. Oh yeah, he'sgot that. He's got those big whiskers
growing young Edward Haskell, I,I can't ever remember it being that cool
(11:54):
to say you shake. Yes,No, it's a big deal. As
a kid, it was a bigdeal if you could shave. I remember
you would do that like in theeighth grade before, like a big dance
for us. You know that youthat you would do that. Yes,
come on in and get a shaveover here, and then you'd give us
that your favorite set arabis. Ihave expends of arabis. Yes. Yeah,
(12:20):
he's got a razor in a genuineplastic case. He's got a Jellett
safety razor. Imagine going to hangout with your buddy and see you can
see the Gelett plastic razor. Thatwas a big deal. That was a
big deal. I remember standing inthe bathroom in the kitchen sink and shaving
with my father's razor and he getticked to chiff like that and he didn't
want you. It was a safetyrazor and I can remember actually trying to
(12:43):
shave with it and cut in myface so bad. So what is this
like? What? What's what werethe razors like back then? Were they
all straight edge like that? Theywere edge? It's a safety raiser,
you know, the ones that youscrew over face opens and you have you
get gotcha. I can remember thatyou'd buy Gillette blue blades. Everybody bought
(13:09):
blue blades. And then how youdoing, George, how's it going,
George? Merry Christmas and Happy NewYear's buddy. But I can remember when
Wilkinson's sword razor blades came out.That was the big deal because they were
very expensive. Takes away from Wally'smoment here what Edie did big time.
You know, Walie got this bigmoment on the freshman football team, big
(13:31):
plays. Eddie had to take awayfrom it by stealing the thunder a little
bit. Yes, a cyclopede cyclopedia. He's doing it again. It's the
only pet peeve that we could talkabout all the time. Well I saw,
(14:01):
yeah, you want again. Popare so proud of a brother,
and they're all proud. Uh huh. It's the difference between things now and
back then. Though you mentioning forthe show. You know, War didn't
go to the big game today oranything like that. You have to go
(14:22):
to work. He wasn't ducking outearly for that one big difference, and
you know you don't do that.If you did that, now you know
your kid's liable to think you hatethem. It's a lot of people can't
do that. Yep, thank youso much, George, appreciate it.
My friend up. See this thishas gotten to Wally. He's got the
(14:48):
he's got all the shaving cream out. Yes, it's just that I love
that visual of it with all hisshaving cream on his face like that.
I hate when I hate when peoplefar on my razor. Man, my
daughter will like go to use itto shave her legs, you know,
and then I'll come in and out. See in the show, I said,
(15:09):
what are you doing with my razorget Oh there's a big deal.
Yeah, that's when you got togo out and get her her own.
She does have them, but shelikes, she likes Joey Steel's mind.
Kids just don't think, oh boy, he doesn't have the blade in right.
Yeah, no, I didn't thinkso clean has a whistle all right
(15:31):
when you got nothing in there.While he thinks he's a he's a season
pro right now. Yes, Idon't know how many guys have done this.
And then you put a blade inand then you get your first you
get your first razor burn. Yeah, you get your first cut, and
you have to put a septic pencil, a skeptic pencil on it and all
(15:52):
that kind of stuff, and youyou know, you've got to toilet paper.
Look at how they put the bladesin back on these ones, though,
you know, he's unscrewing it fromunderneath. It a little different to
how things are done now. Ohno, that's how they were. You
have to unscrew it from the bottom. Some of the travel ones actually came
apart. Yeah, did you evertry with a straight razor at all in
your life? I know you don'tlike them, but I yes, I
(16:15):
thought you told me before you try. Yes, I tried it. I
bought one from the drug store.I'll never forget. It costs like six
or seven. There was a lotof money. Yeah, and then you
know, nobody told you that youhad to have a stop for it and
you had to do everything else.No. I tried that, and I
couldn't shave with it. Yeah,it's definitely an art form when you learn
in the beginning stages shaving. Idon't know if you've ever shaved yourself routinely
(16:41):
with a straight razor. No,I've never had one. Very very difficult.
Yeah, I've never had one.I mean I get it from the
barber all the time. Yeah,that's a whole different thing. I haven't
done that myself. I've thought aboutit a few times, like saying,
oh, you know, I coulddo my own touch ups again, and
I'm like, yeah, not gonnahappen. That's a remedy for disaster with
that thing. Even a lot ofthem barber's nowadays, you know, the
younger one, they don't they don'tlearn. You know what my barber's I
(17:03):
think it's like fifty one or something. Lemon's, you know, been doing
it for thirty years and he tellsme his apprentices never want to learn how
to do a skind raiser. Yeah. What she got on the plate,
Okay, that was a big deal. That was a big deal in the
day. That's how people who saidthey would set you know, cocktail.
Yeah, man, juice cocktail.It's just interesting the way she sets it
(17:26):
up on the middle of the plate. Well, yeah, for everybody,
it was it was the appetizer.Oh I hate tomato juice. You love
it, yeap. When we hadthat for dinner or something, or for
breakfast, my father would put saltand pepper in the Oh, no,
it's delicious. And some lemon.Oh, no, lemon and some lemon
(17:48):
juice. It was delicious. Boy, he's got balcars. You know.
If he wanted to do a goodlie here, he just had a big
football game. Yeah he could tosay he got nicked up in the football
game. I'm just thinking on myfeet here. Yeah he's trying, though,
he's just not selling it good.No, Ward knew. Look at
(18:18):
the concerned look on her face whenhe mentions that he's shaved. Hey,
it's another big milestone. That's whatI love about this show. It's like
going back through memory lane. Andagain I couldn't tell you with the authority
anymore whether a kid's this is routinelyimportant to fourteen year olds. And I
(18:40):
just got done teaching child development threeyears ago. Uh huh. So it's
a whole different world until you haveWard's being fair about this, though he's
not being read. We heard thesame thing. I heard this, the
same thing. My father said thesame thing. And they gave you the
(19:02):
same thing about smoking cigarettes. Theyalso everybody smoked, and they tell you
don't smoke cigarettes. Why not becauseyou're gonna get lung cancer. It'll stunt
your growth. Yeah, I don'tworry about the other reproductions of it.
It's just it's gonna stunt your growth. That's the word I used to tell
me when I was older. Hey, if you're going to smoke. When
she caught me smoking, smoke apipe pipe? What wonderful parenting logic?
(19:25):
That is, if you're going tosmoke, hit the pipe because you don't
inhale a pipe. Yeah theory,and you did. That's like, can
you imagine to being like sixteen yearsold, if you know, walking around
with a frigging pipe you I couldpicture you doing it too. That's the
that's the best part about it.I could picture you do it. Anybody's
parents, their grandparents smoke a pipeor anything like that. Anybody here smoke
(19:45):
a pipe? Stuff is gross.Let's see. Hi, Deborah, how
are you tonight? Great? HopefullyI had a wonderful and merry Christmas and
a happy New Year. Yes,coming to you tomorrow. Well, he's
kind of excited though, you know, because we talked him up there.
I think you did the right.We've got a quick commercial here. Oh
it's for Salesforce. I thought thatwas the Lawman, Bess. Yes,
(20:07):
we've got to put a plug inif you want to see. If you
like westerns, what a good show, A great show, Bess Reeves lawman.
Yeah, that was a good onefor sure. Boys, that good.
And if you like something more modern, Reacher, that's no, leave
it to be well, not everythingmaybe leaving uh huh. That one is
(20:30):
uh. That one is as goodas it comes with. Actually it's pretty
tough. Yeah, there's a lotof good violence in that in that show,
for sure. Oh yeah, hello, Brenda, how are you?
Happy New Year to you as well? All we did is well, Devora,
thank you. I'm glad you alldid too. I can't believe how
quick this year went. We're comingup on a year doing the show on

and subscribeing to the show. Lookat this now, here's Eddie, Eddie
copying off of him or something,yep, trying to over Eddie has the
(21:18):
worst hair, doesn't he. Yes, I can't believe that. Somebody would,
you know, have a haircut likelike old Haskell. Here, let
it run free, man. Helooks like he's got curls and he's just
trying to slick a lot of peoplelike that. Yeah, in the day,
George said, my grandpa smoked apipe and cigars. Yeah, the
smell of the pipe and cigars.Well, that's going to be the next
(21:40):
episode. Yep. So that's alwaysa fun one to touch on with those
two rascals Beaver and Larry Mondelo fourwhole blades out in case we didn't follow
a show with you here there whilehe's doing a deal to get to be
(22:02):
one of the guys. And he'stelling Eddie he's got a shave and he's
got his status back. But Wardand June have to go to somebody's house
here in a second, boy,she is panicking about being late here,
yes, you go, Oh mygoshot, can you imagine this? He
(22:27):
comes home from work, he's gota shower and shave before he goes over
to These are the customers and customersin the day when he came home from
work and you had to go takea shower. But he doesn't look like
he like is dirty at all.And anyway, he looks like he just
like woke up and showered and shave. I can't remember doing the same thing
if I come home from working,I'm going someplace for your mother, and
I give you a second take aquick shower and shave. He better hurry
(22:51):
up because June might might mug him. Watch this though, what happens?
Oh boy, I can see ashadow in the background here. Uh oh,
I'm not kidding with him now,Yeah, boy, he's given him
that stern look. Didn't we gothrough all this before about your shaving and
(23:18):
didn't you agree with me? Allright? Yeah? Dad? But I
was just you were just doing whatyou were told not to do. Boy,
he gave it to him. There'smore I guess I used. Oh
(23:40):
I have to go without shaving.Boy, he is not happy shaving now
he's going to really embarrass him.Stop trying to a grown up boy.
He just loves this, he does. It is totally an excuse for him
to tell everybody. This is whata guy like him has been waiting for
(24:03):
all week. Yes, boy,Wally just got demoralized in front of his
friend and he knows what's gonna happen. War telling him to stop wanting to
grow up and do it. Youdon't need to just made him look like
a complete idiot to his friends.Yeah, it's a good lie. Wally
(24:33):
understands his old friend Daddy Haskell toowell. He is eating this up one
hundred Yeah, George, he doescome through at the end of this episode.
That's the beautiful part of this episode, because even when you're mad at
your kids and you mess up sometimesas a parent, you know it.
(25:03):
Wait, Lumpy is in the eleventhgrade for god knows how long in this
show. Was it a big statusthing to be on the football team in
the fifties? Okay, oh yeah, he didn't even he didn't even get
(25:23):
a hello out back to Holland whywould you do that to somebody because she's
jealous, insanely jealous of them.Absolutely, this is the pecking order of
(25:44):
guys of goofing on people. Wasanybody out there ever, like Eddie Haskell
where you kind of waiting on everybody? I was. I'm saying, we
know people like it, But wasanybody ever the Eddie Haskell out there that
was looking to do that. No, Lumpey was always afraid of Wally for
the most part. Yes he was. He always had to try and fully
him. But whatever, Oh boy, he doesn't like that. There's that
(26:17):
he says, he sees the teacherhe stops like good morning, mister Rees.
He doesn't like it because he knowshe's he's I hate to use the
term better, but he's a betterathlete and a better probably a better student
than the end. Absolutely, he'smore well liked by everybody. He's popular.
He's very modest. Yeah, Idon't know, I'm probably maybe you
(26:44):
could put a bit more. She'salways trying in a way to be mob
and to put more food on yourplate. Yep, Grandma would do the
same thing. Of course, that'swhat I missed about the old school moms
and grandma's like that. Yeah,yeah, they always portrayed to me.
(27:07):
I'm just gonna say that Beaver isso dumb. Well, he's academics,
yeah, his strong point. He'sjust he's kind of like the average to
the below average kid that you haven'tyou tell me that you love. But
he's a really good kid. It'sjust the way they portray his character at
some point, it's like he's dumbwith the way that he talks, or
you know, here he's got thearithmetic test, I only got eight wrong,
(27:29):
you know, but you have tostop and think about that at any
point in time the middle of thebellship curve, because you're in the middle.
Yeah, the people are above you. Yeap, oh boy, what's
that? Enough? Ward is snappingon Beaver even when Beiaber's just trying to
make small talk with mob. Absolutely. Ward is definitely showing some wear and
(27:55):
tear today. Yeah, I toldyou about in these in these shows,
he really does. You know whyhe's so agitated though, because he expects
better from Wally. Yeah, becausehe knows Wally is the oldest, he's
responsible. He just expects better fromhim. Here's where Beaver, though,
is doing Wally's job. He's interpretingfor him. Yeah. Yeah, Beab
(28:21):
just taught Ward lesson there what hedid. Yeah. Yeah, That's the
thing I love about Ward though,is that Ward can always when he cools
down a little bit, listen.Yeah, it's it's a lesson. It's
one of those things that's a lessonfor everybody, you know, to count
to one hundred before you or youknow. You know what's great about Word
(28:42):
though, too, is he's alwaysa student at the end. He's the
leader in the beginning, and whenhe messes up or does something the incorrect
way, or maybe even if it'snot incorrect and it just could have been
done a little bit differently, healways listens to. Whether it's Wally or
Beaver or June or whoever, everybodyin a good family or or I think
(29:02):
a smart family where people are trying, everybody learns from one another. They
said this was a departure Beaver asthe observer and Wally is the central character,
right, Yeah, absolutely, Thismight be one of the first episodes
if not that I can remember,where Beaver is not the prime focus of
it. Yeah, I mean maybethere was one or a few others from
(29:26):
the earlier seasons, but this mightbe Wally's uh, you know, kind
of time. Time to shine herea little bit. But this is a
reward saying. He gets it thatthis is not just kid hijinks. This
is their kids are going through differentstages now and while just getting out of
that you know, young youngster thing, and he's getting to be a young
man, and he forgets how importantit is and how fragile his feelings are.
(29:51):
That's the thing we forget as parentssometimes. Oh yeah, but here,
what's going on here? Oh,this is gonna be good, guys.
Yeah, this is where Barbaro comesthrough. M What I like about
(30:11):
this with the barber is how thebarber knows how to play along with it
too. Oh yeah, he setthis whole thing up for him because the
barber was part of the community thatraised you. Everybody's there, kids,
everybody parents. It's always fun togo to the barber shop. Yes,
and this, uh, the guywho plays this is of course Floyd the
barber. Oh Andy's haircut. Heprobably wanted to have slapped too, He
(30:41):
for that one. Or Chester,Sorry, Chester, that's too sorry.
What's with the high chairs where they'reall sitting up high like that? That's
the way it was, okay,yeah, interesting. He would kick on
the pedal and have the thing back. Get yourself a shoe, shine for
a quarter there, absolutely, Buthere's the yourself, here's Ward. Here's
(31:04):
where Ward redeems himself. Yep,okay, watching look at you in your
own business work on Saturday. Adeliberate turn, he is, he really
(31:27):
is. You mean, oh man, everybody's looking now. Look at the
other barber doing Eddi's hair. He'sn'teven doing it. You know, he's
trying. He's just trying to lethim hear. Yep, Oh, I
(31:56):
love it. I love it.A look on his he's just all befuddled
by it. He does shine,dever, that's that's that's for sure,
one hundred percent. He's gonna gethim home looking nice for the weekend.
He said, yeah, look atthat. He just glued on him.
(32:19):
Do you know in my neighborhood wehad the same thing. Anthony, the
barber was my godfather, Josapienza.That was his brother in law. Look
at how right there, Yes,oh my god, look at this.
They were the barbers were part ofyour family. Yep, right now,
what was the hotel to open yourporest or something to make your skin and
hair soft open? No, he'susing a string. This is a big
(32:46):
deal, man. Look at allthe kids glued on it. That this
is a first and Floyd of course, like he's doing the whole the whole
tradition, like at Barbera. Lookat Ward's smiling and basking in his glory
right now a little bit he knewthat this got him is going to get
him over right now. Yeah,watch this, oh man, Look at
(33:10):
Beaver just glued to it too.Ye. Tony dow is barely blinking in
that scene. To god, shewas not too happy to know yet Larry
(33:31):
Jude wasn't on it to a littlebit. That's awesome parenting though, right
there. That total that's a totalwin. This is a really nice ending
though. Well he's not stupid,nope, you know and everything that's I
(34:02):
think I kind of old you that. But still one of the boys is
that's one of the awkward signs ofbeing a man. It's a whole lot
more important to try to be aman inside. First. Good lesson always
a good lesson for him about don'tworry about it. At least he recognizes
(34:29):
that. That's right, He's notdelusion dope. He recognized it. At
least I like it. The endthere gives it them There. That's a
great episode. I love that one. The next episode is a great one
too. It's the Pipe. Yes, that is a hilarious one. Life
is very funny. Larry Mondelo shinesin that one too. I was telling
John my my father smoked a pipefor many years when he uh when he
(34:53):
he actually worked on tugboats and stufflike that, and he had a lot
of pipes from his family, whoare a bunch of sweetes yep. And
he used to have him in abox in his drawer. He didn't smoke
him where he kept him. Andas a kid, I would take them
out and smoke them with all usedused tobacco and stuff like that. And
I remember taking them all out andwashing them in the sink for my father
(35:15):
to be nice to. Oh mygod, he must have wanted to kill
you, probably so, but hewas a good guy. Well, we
hope everybody had a great time tonight. I had. Oh, that's a
great episode. That was one wherewe sit back a little bit and watch
and soak up some of the momentsin it, and everybody has a great
years. Any final thoughts before weget out here, Yeah, that you
