remember this episode. You I rememberit, but I didn't get a chance
to see it this week and refreshmyself that and I didn't want to.
I wanted to see it cold witheverybody here tonight. And also because I
was watching my new grands all daylong, my my son and his wife
(05:09):
were exhausted, so we didn't geta chance to do that. But it's
a good one. Beaver gets hisfirst feeling. It gave me a lot
of reminiscing since I'm, you know, familiar like he is in the same
time period m HM with dentists andold fashioned dentists. What's going on?
Eman, Great, my friend,Great to see you. So here is
Tonight's a little quick write up aboutit. So it says, well,
(05:29):
Beaver and his small toothache wait forthe results of a dental X ray.
He's convinced that he will soon havea painful experience after mean spirited Lumpy Rutherford
tells him that to make more money, the dentist will drill a whole deep,
no matter how tiny the cavity maybe. Yes, Lumpy Ruth offer
that damn troublemaker. I'll tell youthe truth. So that was my experience
(05:50):
with my dentist. And he wasa good guy. It was always bad
news when you were scared of thedentists. Scared to death. Really well,
they didn't give us any novacane,and he was a nice guy and
everything, him and his wife,but everything was those old fashioned drills.
Oh, yes, it's such anI can understand why people can be that
(06:13):
way. I've never had a problemwith the dentists though, right, you
know, it's never bothered me inany way with the dentist. But well,
we always had as kids, youknow, it was very common to
have cavities and things like that.They didn't have all the enamel coatings that
you had when you were there andeverything else like that, you know whatever
I mean. Our dental hygiene wasgood. We had to brush our teeth
after leaves and stuff like that.But yeah, we were scared to death
(06:36):
of that stuff. How about youguys, I mean, if you were
in the sixties or seventies or fifties, were you scared of the dentist?
What's going on? Brian Nelson Junior? How was it going? My friend
he says, I always got aprize at the dentist. I missed those
days. Yeah, we used toget candy. Can you believe that candy
at the dentist? You did welltoday, So here you go. You
know you only had two cavities.Let's give you a nice sugary lollipop.
(07:00):
I had a dentist as as anadult here in New York. On Labor
Day weekend, I actually had tohave a tooth pull and the death came
in specially and said do you smoke? And I said I sure do at
the time, and he says,to your mind, and he was smoking
a cigarette with me while we werewaiting for the Novo Kames to go,
and he's, you know, kindof a crazy thing. But that's for
another day. Guy. Oh man, Well, if you might hear in
(07:24):
the background, we got like,uh, we got like tape like hail
like conditions out there. So we'redoing the best we can. We can't
we can't change around the climate today. It's uh, it's it's pouring pretty
hard with hail and wind right now. So we're doing our best to break
through it. So if you hearsome some pattering in the background, uh,
that's it right there. If wego flying out the window, call

problem with his two How many ofyou might have done this lately with your
spouse or a parent or somebody likethat, and said, I don't know,
(10:07):
something's going on. Can you lookin here and you kind of like
try to talk yourself out of goingto the dentist a little bit. Oh
now he's sticking his finger in hismouth. How many of you went to
the dentist as kids before the dentistswore gloves? Yeah, I remember,
and they never did that. Theyjust just wash their hands. How gross
(10:30):
and disgusting even at that point intime to think about that. Oh,

become a part of our life forthe last year and a half. Oh
sure for sure. Now you knowwhen people talk about people looking at the
(11:16):
phone at the table, yeah,today, the papers, the paper was
was the deal? The radio backin the thirties and forties and twenties and
into the fifties, and then theTV Brenda said she was afraid to everybody
was afraid of the dentist here.Oh yeah, you remember, Brenda,
Remember the little head on the littleneedle when they'd have a little filling and
you hit it there like, ohmy god. When they did my root
(11:39):
canal that time, that was theworst part was that I'm sticking the needle
in the roof of my mouth andthen right in the area. Ooh,
here's Wally talking about the dentist washingyour hands down. You know, anybody
can eat breakfast like this, butyou know John keeps mentioned in this and
(12:00):
I see they were saying, wouldyou just like to sit like that every
day and like, you know,go to a diner or not that you
couldn't do it at home. Imean, I have a breakfast. It's
just said a certain kind of way. That's just perfect. Larry Mondela has
made his appearance for already. Yeah, crowns. I got to finish my
(12:22):
crown on Monday. Yep. Fromafter My root Canal a few weeks ago.
Think if you were telling that toLarry Mondela, what he'd say they
never have good new news for you. None of his friends always had.
They always bring up something bad.Well, that's the way people were years
ago. They would always nobody wouldbe looking for like optimists, and they'd
be looking like, what bad couldhappen to you? What's the news of
(12:45):
the day. I've always been lucky. I've only had two cavities my whole
life. You know, I've alwaysbeen lucky. On that I can I
can say proudly that I've never hadI'm gonna know, I'm gonna fucking jinx
myself here. I haven't had toomany instances of bad things in my mouth,
(13:09):
But now I'm gonna go in thenext time and I'm gonna have nine
cavities with a ten thousand dollars bill. Look at this now here he is
in the depthist office. This womanwho plays the nurse here looks like my
sister Judy. I thought he wasgoing on his own here. No,
but this this urse looks like exactlylike my sister. She was one of
(13:31):
the most famous character actresses. Wehave to take take Brian, how much
how much book can see what hername is with us? My Lord Bright
said, I got a filling whenI was eight, and it lasted till
I was thirty. I didn't getanother cavity until I was in my mid
thirties. Oh boy, and itlasted half the time as the first one.
They don't make them like they usedto. Nop is Larry shaking the
(13:54):
candy machine out to try to getextra Yes, those look like little Eminem's
or little ball Dean's or something likethat in there, plus a little gumbarel
balls. Look at Larry's haircut here? How uneven it is? Do you
see that with his bangs? Oh, that's the way they'd cut it.
The barber would cut your hair thatway, just like beavers. Look at
Larry's though, it's like, youknow, it was choppy. You know
(14:18):
what they would actually do, thebarbers what they would do, whatever your
part was, They comb your hairover here, and then they would cut
it up like it for a boy, like up on a d oh boy.
Here's Lumpy Rutherford. Look at thejackets on these guys. I love
Lumpy Ruthifford though. Oh yes,daddy, yaw, Lumpy's gonna make ITIM
(14:43):
real nervous, Yeah, Ryan says, I like the crunch toothpaste. I
don't remember that crunchy toothpaste? What'scrunchy tooth? I don't know. Fill
(15:05):
me in on that bran because Idon't know what that is either. Now
Lumpy scaring the Bejesus out of typicalLumpy. He's been in the tenth grade
for three years that they always sayabout him or something. Yes, it's
(15:26):
like sand, he said, Okay, so it's really grainy. I guess,
oh, okay, yeah, ithas an abrasive in it. Tom
says, what is worse than havinga toothpowl? Larry having his appendance taken
out? Man never said Alice Brackettor Bacchus played the nurse. I don't
(15:48):
know, that's just your name.I wonder if she's any relationship to Jim
Backus, mister Magoo and you knowthe guy, mister the guy on Gilligan's
Island, a millionaire. Oh thirstand hell the third right, Look at
(16:11):
these two guys here. Everybody's gotbeaver warrin to death. Larry always has
some type of food in his mouthconstantly, absolutely, and the jackets that
they wear, My god, listento the sound now, the guy doing
the jack caamer on the street.Beaver think that's that's that's what's going to
be coming for his teeth. Well, i'll say you back in the day,
(16:33):
it was something like that. Youknow the worst part when they do
your feelings is when they grind itdown you can smell it like that.
That was the thing when I gotmy my crown started the other way when
they were taking the tooth that Ibroke. And look at that roast she's
putting in the oven. Man,Yeah, Deva says his name is spelled
(16:56):
back as so maybe not a littledifferent spelling than the other one. Yes,
yes, yes, Look how shehangs the pots on her wall.
Yeah, oh sure, that wasvery popular in the day. I loved
it with the books too, howthey take the bookstrap at this point in
time and carry mar Zacha. Isthat how you guys carried your books.
(17:18):
Yes, we used to have arubber strap that went around it that would
tighten it very much. But alot of people would have an old belt.
I take one of Grandpa's old garrisonbelts. I know, I say
it all the time on the show, But as she's even cooking dinner,
look how stunning she looks. Yeah, she's got her pearls on cooking dinner.
(17:40):
I know you love it, thesimplicity of the house, the organ
It's just you could always smell thedentist office. You could smell the disinfected,
just like my sister Judy. Istill kind of find it like that
(18:03):
when you go in that you cansmell the disvection, and of course because
they have to sterilize it so good, when you go to the doctor,
you'd smell alcohol. I hate thesmell of the doctor's office too. The
dentist at least has like a tome, a better set than going to
a doctor's office. The doctors justhave that stale smell to it when you
go in there because the deodorizers allthe time and the bacteria, you know,
(18:26):
antibacteria stuff they put. Oh boy, he's lying again. He wanted
to get away from that. Yeah, you know, Beaver's not going to
sleep at night after this one.Look at his face. He's just dying
(18:48):
a thousand deaths. She gets it, though she's not mad about it.
It's not like he's being malicious here. He just doesn't want to go to
the dentist. That would be thefirst thing I asked Doctor Talbin. Was
my dentist am I gonna get aneedle. You know you hated needles that
much. Well, I never hada needle in my mouth before. You
know, if there would be aproblem with your tooth, you know,
he tell you that, hey,this is gonna be a big filling,
(19:11):
and that's gonna be a while.I know some people have this like they're
just petrified of because of needles,because because dentistry and a lot of medical
procedures was not paying free. Yeah, it's like when the doctor. I
lived in an era when doctors wouldmake house calls and when they give you
(19:33):
a shot, you can smell thealcohol. You have, a big,
big needle would come out and you'dbe you'd be like, you know,
waiting to die. Does anybody rememberor did you have doctors that did have
house calls for you when you werewhen you were younger? To anybody anybody
have that? I know, Iknow it's very common back then. Oh
yes, our doctor is doctor Leeban, and all doctors had cadillacts, black
(19:56):
cadillacts, and they would have anempty plight. Just think if Larry's mother
never got married, she could havebeen in that office. Yep, we're
just here with the commercial for twelveseconds or so, and then we'll be
(20:17):
right back to the dentist, andpoor Beaver is gonna go get there.
You know, when you look atthis though, once again, it goes
right back to your thing with Juneand in her pearls and things on the
wall, the white picket fence,even the doctor's office, everything is Look,
it's just look at their bedroom,one little desk, a lamb.
(20:38):
It's so simplistic and perfect. Yes, you know, nothing's overdone. No,
Yes, Larry's Larry's mom was adental nurse in case we didn't know,
Yeah, I remember something like that. Now. I was like,
Larry's mom is so old looking,And do you think she was as friend
lake. Yeah, you think she'shis grandmother more than you think that she's
(21:02):
his you know, mother in it. She's a very famous character actors.
She was Aunt Harriet and Batman inthe sixties. Yeah, I believe you're
right. Yeah, I believe.When we saw her the first time,
I think they said she was inBatman a couple other big things. Oh,
(21:22):
yes, very very big, prettybig character actors. He's a good
guy, Wally. This is whatalways is. Yeah. He tries to
calm him down. Cathy said,she says our dog had tongue depressors with
lollipops on them. Goodness, tonguedepressors are the worst. I always like
(21:44):
it. I would always cough intheir face with that thing. I just
couldn't do it. The taste ofthe tongue depressor in it. Oh,
Match Blake was sick. Steve Eversaid when she did leave it to be,
oh my god, well, itkind of if she could have a
kid Larry's age there, I guess, you know, there's a there's there's
(22:07):
been a few Hollywood actors and actressesthat have recently come out. Cameron Diaz
at fifty one. Hey, Iknow it's possible. Yeah, it's just
not common, of course, youknow, especially during that time, at
least not where. Yeah you mightsee that, you know, but I
don't know. She as old asshe looks in it. She kind of
fits with Larry's character, I think, well for it, sure, and
(22:30):
it fits the stuff because Larry wouldalways talk about his older brother getting married
and all that stuff. Actually,Ward looks pretty old for having young kids.
Yes, I would agree very muchon that. He you know,
I don't know how much older heis in this than her as they portrayed
it. They're close en age orwhatever. He's got his butts and I
get it. You always notice thatpick up on that guy. I can't
(22:55):
help it. See I wore ashirt similar to Ward tonight. Is the
kind of the same kind of thing. Uh huh. I love that.
I love that sport code he's goton too. Man, that's actually a
good look at sports coat. ManBeavers all dressed up to go to the
(23:15):
dentist. That was you. Youbetter, you better be on your best
behavior to go to the doctor.You're a reflection of your parents. Yes,
you know what the amazing thing waswhen the doctor would come making a
house call. You could be sickas a dog and you would feel better.
It's a psychological phenomenon as soon ashe walked in, because the doctor
was a god. There was thedoctor's here. Thank god, he's gonna
(23:40):
fix everything the dentist this year,thank god, Tom says. After the
needle hit the gums, the restwas the breeze. Try whistling. Yeah,
you don't feel you don't feel muchof anything when they when they stick
all that medication in your gums.I always hate it because, like whatever
side they're doing it on, it'slike your face goes numb. You can
(24:04):
barely talk on that side. Thiswas a big, big deal. You
know. Also, what's not shownin this that's an idealized thing. I
don't know how you guys feel aboutit. If you came from a lower
middle class background or a background withsome poverty, you didn't get to go
to the desk. Yeah, yourparents didn't get to go to the was
(24:26):
their dental insurance back Yeah? Ididn't think so. You know, there
wasn't dental insurance or anything like that. Was there medical insurance back then?
Either? Yeah, my father belongedto what they called the HIP, the
Health Insurance program of New York Citybecause he was a city worker. Now,
see this is interesting here he's holdinghands with Beaver. Yeah, I
don't think in all and all thetime on the show, I've ever seen
(24:48):
him hold hands with him. Uh, that's funny that you mentioned that.
Yeah, well that would be theappropriate thing to do with him, well,
especially you know, like Ward's tryingto toughen him up here and give
him He's give him that pep talk. Now, come on, Beaver,
I remember the Brussels spouts episode yearslater, you're going to be a regular
(25:10):
little soldier. He said, Well, you know, this is that stuff
we talk about all the time,and in this era of time, I
would tend to agree with it.You didn't try and save your kids from
all the grief in the world.What you tried to do is teach them
as they met certain things that theywould have to face. Like the dentist
of the doctor. You teach himto cope with it. Look who's in
(25:30):
the office. Did you see itwith the girl? Oh? Boys?
Here, yes, Fred, Fredand Violet. Now, Amon said,
mister Hugh Beaumont was born in nineteenoh nine, so at this time he
would have been This was nineteen fiftyeight at this point, so he would
(25:51):
have been yeah, forty nine yearsold. Yeah, very old for having
kids at that point. I guessyou would say this is that's Angela Cartwright's
sister, if I'm not mistaken.Yeah, because Violet was in the second
or the third episode, right,it's the she's the gallon the original picture
Aliens with the alien plot. She'salso with Donald Sutherland in the remake of
(26:15):
Invasion of the Body Statue. Yousaw he just died the other day.
Yes, yeah, eighty eight yearsold. Wow. This They have a
lot of really big character actors andactresses in here, and of course Richard
Deacon. I mean when you lookat when you look at Fred Rutherford too,
he looks like an old man,especially with that haircut. Oh yes,
(26:37):
with that haircut. In the glasses, he does not look like he's
this guy that's a young father.Well, he was the famous guy on
the Dick Van Dyke show. Thatwas Mel the Boss. Okay, Carl
Reiner's brother in law. Those glasseson him too, that was that was
just those are the glasses that peoplewould wear in the sixties. If you
were in business in the fifties andsixties, you wear those horn rim glasses.
(27:03):
Yea. Even like his hair whenyou look at his hair with note
how bald he is on the topand everything. He doesn't want Beaver to
embarrass him now in front of hisoffice mate. He wants him to go
in and be and be a champabout it. All right, boy,
(27:25):
that's very funny when he aw that'san old timey thing. You are,
right boy, all right boy,yeah, you know it's funny when you
watch this. I guess parents feltthat the way that your kid behaved.
(27:45):
I wonder if I wonder if oldboy is gonna find out that his son
is the one that put it inhis head. Yeah, how condescending.
You gotta fine boy there, Ohbuddy, Now this guy plays the dentist
somebody I don't you know, haveBrian's book with me? Here to that
(28:07):
another really famous. This guy isso famous. He played the judge in
one of the episodes. This guy'splayed in Oh yeah, the one when
Wally takes him to the court orwhatever. He always plays a professor.
He always plays something like that,Hey, George, has it going great
to see my friend. Hi,George Beaver's about right to cry his eyes
out even worse. Yeah, he'sgotta be. I think in the series
(28:32):
multiple three or maybe I think he'sprobably at least three different times. I
can remember seeing him in it.I remember as the judge, now the
dentist, and I think he playsuh one time as like one of the
salesmen in one of the departments.Stuff. She could wow. See that's
(28:55):
a that's a win for him.If I hurt you, you get every
toy in the box. Frank Wilcox, Devna, Thanks Deborrah boy, he
said, that's that's exactly the dentalthing that they used on me. And
see the look at the drill thereis in a high speed drill like today,

the chairs too. They would pumpyou up like a But here he is,
here's the soap mhm. H Beaverwith his and with with with just
(29:38):
being a kid man. He justsays what's on his mind. Look at

on his face that everything's done.Wow, Kathy says, Beab is going
(30:06):
to tell the dentists all about drillinga big hole to make more money up.
He had a connection with Hugh Beaumont. Look at this talk about today
where you have hippa, you can'tsay anything in front of anybody else.
Everybody could hear things through the Imean yeah, I mean the door is
right where he's drilling. This kid'stooth is right next to the waiting room.
I had that with when you actuallygo to a doctor's visit with doctor
(30:30):
Reef. He wasn't a dentist,a regular doctor, but he might be
talking behind a door and you couldactually hear the guy talking to people.
Oh man, work's not pleased withhim. No, he feels embarrassed by
him. Yes, well, henever likes Fred Bruther for to have one
(30:51):
leg up on him. Yep,Brian said, who who would have thought
a dentist would be a psychologist too? Yes, all in those days.
(31:14):
Oh boy, he's got that embarrassedlook on him as he tells that.
You know, well, he reallyacted out in front of everybody, he
did. But he's a little kid. You know. Somebody filled his head
with a bunch of nonsense. Youknow, you're impressionable as an eight year
old kid, and some older kidstelling him that he's gonna drill through your
mouth, you know, with everything, with this big nasty drill, it's
gonna hurt you. Wall's logic.Don't worry. I'll be proud of you
(31:44):
someday again. Worse than this stuff, as if you were a kid and
you had to give like my sisters. My sister had an appendix operation as
a kid. Oh man, thatwas a big deal. Word is like
festering right now. And this Oh, he's mad at himself. Yes,
(32:24):
hmm, yeah, fantasy. Goodpoint by him. Oh yeah, people
fantasize about their kids, but they'regoing to be like them when they're not
perfect. They get very angry orvery disappointed in him. Look at her
(32:49):
comforting him though, like like sucha wonderful wife that she is, you
know, to comfort him. He'sgot a pack of butts. The Yeah.
Right after that, in between scenes, he's so upset at himself,
you know, for he thinks helet him down, you know, and
he thinks he's set up a verybad expectation for the kid. And here
she comes in making him feel goodabout being a dad, telling him,
(33:10):
you know, you don't have tobe the perfect father. This is a
wonderful thing about the show, isthat the lessons learn and go up,
sideways down and support with one another. It's really something else. Quick commercial
before the end of Before the endof the show, folks, I got
(33:30):
about a minute. I had thatwith my underston and the baby the other
day. He was so tired asa young father, Yes, as a
young father. I mean he's reallyexhausted and everything else like that, and
the baby's really getting to him alittle bit keeping him up and everything else
like that, you know, andthe baby just doesn't settle down easily for
(33:50):
him. And I picked up thebaby and the baby's just stopped like that
to some kind of an old prowith that, like a lot of people
are. And he was so disappointed. I felt so bad for him,
and I said, oh, Isaid, no, that's nothing, that's
just a coincidence. Where was hedisappointed because he felt like he was letting
him down, and it wasn't feltlike he wasn't being a good father.
He felt like he didn't know whatthe hell he was doing. And I
(34:12):
guess you don't when you're a newfather. In many hoss you don't.
But for me, I had theopportunity to take care of my nephews and
nieces and see babies all around theplace I had children before, and everything
else, and that that stuff doesn'tworry me anymore in life like it might
him. I know, I'm notgoing to be doing that twenty four hours
a day. It's the same thinglike this. It happens to everybody.
(34:34):
Of course, you know, ithappens to everybody. You were coming in.
He's all happy now, absolutely,It's look at that he's self correct.
He's admitting that he was meanting hewas wrong. Right. What a
(34:57):
good man, what a good fathershould do? Good and beaver mm hmmm,
you'd have to do a lot worsethan that. Before I stopped liking
you. I love it. Yeah, you know. The only thing,
the only thing with this, it'sso sad. In the sixties, he
(35:19):
doesn't get a kiss. Yeah,that would be that just wasn't common.
You know, it would be alittle feminist. Yeah, they wouldn't want
to, you know it. Youknow, today, of course it would
be much different. But you know, back in the day, that was
a really good episode. Yeah,it was very nice. I hope you
guys didn't mind us looking at itcold with you and with the hail out
there. I'm so sorry, sorryto beginning there for a very touching,
(35:43):
very touching episode. I like that, I really do. I like that.
I like the moral at the endof the story with him where he
really learned an important lesson as afather, and it was it was nice
to see how he kind of felt, you know, he kind of felt
like how he let him down andeverything more. And you saw that both
of them felt that they let eachother. But at the end, you
know, they both realized that theydidn't let each other down, you know,
(36:05):
in their own way, that they'reboth just human and make mistakes.
Yeah, that's a good part ofit, you know what. You know,
what I find I don't know ifyou guys find by watching shows like
this, you know, like watchingyou know, history or something else.
But this this show has a lotof moral lessons. It's very funny.
The point that I'm at in mylife with my family, I find that,
believe it or not, even youknow, with what I know professionally
(36:28):
and everything else, I use alot of the same things that I see
here as a guideline. And thisfamily is wonderful, and I try and
do that with my family, andI see my family try and do that
with me. Lots of things infamilies, it's nice to work them out
together, just to support other peoplein all kinds of little ways, because
every family has their own their ownmoment, their own style, their own
(36:50):
moments, and it's uh, believeit to Beaver is very very instructive always,
I don't know if you guys.Besides being tremendously entertaining and wonderful and
so swim eat and full of nicethings and and something that you can go
to sleep and watch or wake upand have a nice day. It really,
it really is an instructive show tome. I know, oh,

(04:44):
I got all the groups that wealways share it for everybody and tonight,
we have an episode called the Tooth. The tooth is right. I don't
remember this episode. You I rememberit, but I didn't get a chance
to see it this week and refreshmyself that and I didn't want to.
I wanted to see it cold witheverybody here tonight. And also because I
was watching my new grands all daylong, my my son and his wife
(05:09):
were exhausted, so we didn't geta chance to do that. But it's
a good one. Beaver gets hisfirst feeling. It gave me a lot
of reminiscing since I'm, you know, familiar like he is in the same
time period m HM with dentists andold fashioned dentists. What's going on?
Eman, Great, my friend,Great to see you. So here is
Tonight's a little quick write up aboutit. So it says, well,
(05:29):
Beaver and his small toothache wait forthe results of a dental X ray.
He's convinced that he will soon havea painful experience after mean spirited Lumpy Rutherford
tells him that to make more money, the dentist will drill a whole deep,
no matter how tiny the cavity maybe. Yes, Lumpy Ruth offer
that damn troublemaker. I'll tell youthe truth. So that was my experience
(05:50):
with my dentist. And he wasa good guy. It was always bad
news when you were scared of thedentists. Scared to death. Really well,
they didn't give us any novacane,and he was a nice guy and
everything, him and his wife,but everything was those old fashioned drills.
Oh, yes, it's such anI can understand why people can be that
(06:13):
way. I've never had a problemwith the dentists though, right, you
know, it's never bothered me inany way with the dentist. But well,
we always had as kids, youknow, it was very common to
have cavities and things like that.They didn't have all the enamel coatings that
you had when you were there andeverything else like that, you know whatever
I mean. Our dental hygiene wasgood. We had to brush our teeth
after leaves and stuff like that.But yeah, we were scared to death
(06:36):
of that stuff. How about youguys, I mean, if you were
in the sixties or seventies or fifties, were you scared of the dentist?
What's going on? Brian Nelson Junior? How was it going? My friend
he says, I always got aprize at the dentist. I missed those
days. Yeah, we used toget candy. Can you believe that candy
at the dentist? You did welltoday, So here you go. You
know you only had two cavities.Let's give you a nice sugary lollipop.
(07:00):
I had a dentist as as anadult here in New York. On Labor
Day weekend, I actually had tohave a tooth pull and the death came
in specially and said do you smoke? And I said I sure do at
the time, and he says,to your mind, and he was smoking
a cigarette with me while we werewaiting for the Novo Kames to go,
and he's, you know, kindof a crazy thing. But that's for
another day. Guy. Oh man, Well, if you might hear in
(07:24):
the background, we got like,uh, we got like tape like hail
like conditions out there. So we'redoing the best we can. We can't
we can't change around the climate today. It's uh, it's it's pouring pretty
hard with hail and wind right now. So we're doing our best to break
through it. So if you hearsome some pattering in the background, uh,
that's it right there. If wego flying out the window, call
(07:46):
uh, call our lawyers and tellhim to uh to file the appropriate paperwork
for our beneficiaries. Well, wouldyou like me to start the show?

Yes, hey, Brenda, howis it going. Great to see
you. It's always it's great tosee everybody who was afraid of the dentist
though here who was afraid Let's tellus if you were afraid of the dentist,
(08:58):
and what scared you the most abouteverything? That big needle. Look
at this breakfast again? What ishe eating cottage cheese? He looks like
he's having a fruit look kind oflike a little fruit salad something for breakfast
like that. It could be alittle grapefruit sections. And look at it
too. She's bringing out toast foreverybody. But you see slices of toast,
(09:22):
four four one for everybody. Everybody'snot getting two slices, right,
No gluttony in those times. No, it's always amazing. I bet you
that coffee just tastes delicious that shehas. Oh the pot like that and
everything else like that. That's thatwas purpolated coffee. Good stuff, man,
yeah, the good stuff. It'slike the French press coffee. Absolutely.
(09:46):
Now, if you can hear overthe hailstones here any little bit here,
we're trying to These are combat conditions. But Wally is looking down the
beaver's throat and in his mouth,and he sees a little bit of a
problem with his two How many ofyou might have done this lately with your
spouse or a parent or somebody likethat, and said, I don't know,
(10:07):
something's going on. Can you lookin here and you kind of like
try to talk yourself out of goingto the dentist a little bit. Oh
now he's sticking his finger in hismouth. How many of you went to
the dentist as kids before the dentistswore gloves? Yeah, I remember,
and they never did that. Theyjust just wash their hands. How gross
(10:30):
and disgusting even at that point intime to think about that. Oh,
look at Jim. She wants toknow. He's got that scared and petrified
look on his face, and she'sgonna look in there. We will missed
(10:52):
you too, Aimon, We missedyou guys too. So I was afraid
of the dentist when I was akid, he said, And Bryan says,
I never wore gloves either. Yes, we always everybody. We always
miss you guys when we're not aroundon a weekend. So absolutely, it's
become a part of our life forthe last year and a half. Oh
sure for sure. Now you knowwhen people talk about people looking at the
(11:16):
phone at the table, yeah,today, the papers, the paper was
was the deal? The radio backin the thirties and forties and twenties and
into the fifties, and then theTV Brenda said she was afraid to everybody
was afraid of the dentist here.Oh yeah, you remember, Brenda,
Remember the little head on the littleneedle when they'd have a little filling and
you hit it there like, ohmy god. When they did my root
(11:39):
canal that time, that was theworst part was that I'm sticking the needle
in the roof of my mouth andthen right in the area. Ooh,
here's Wally talking about the dentist washingyour hands down. You know, anybody
can eat breakfast like this, butyou know John keeps mentioned in this and
(12:00):
I see they were saying, wouldyou just like to sit like that every
day and like, you know,go to a diner or not that you
couldn't do it at home. Imean, I have a breakfast. It's
just said a certain kind of way. That's just perfect. Larry Mondela has
made his appearance for already. Yeah, crowns. I got to finish my
(12:22):
crown on Monday. Yep. Fromafter My root Canal a few weeks ago.
Think if you were telling that toLarry Mondela, what he'd say they
never have good new news for you. None of his friends always had.
They always bring up something bad.Well, that's the way people were years
ago. They would always nobody wouldbe looking for like optimists, and they'd
be looking like, what bad couldhappen to you? What's the news of
(12:45):
the day. I've always been lucky. I've only had two cavities my whole
life. You know, I've alwaysbeen lucky. On that I can I
can say proudly that I've never hadI'm gonna know, I'm gonna fucking jinx
myself here. I haven't had toomany instances of bad things in my mouth,
(13:09):
But now I'm gonna go in thenext time and I'm gonna have nine
cavities with a ten thousand dollars bill. Look at this now here he is
in the depthist office. This womanwho plays the nurse here looks like my
sister Judy. I thought he wasgoing on his own here. No,
but this this urse looks like exactlylike my sister. She was one of
(13:31):
the most famous character actresses. Wehave to take take Brian, how much
how much book can see what hername is with us? My Lord Bright
said, I got a filling whenI was eight, and it lasted till
I was thirty. I didn't getanother cavity until I was in my mid
thirties. Oh boy, and itlasted half the time as the first one.
They don't make them like they usedto. Nop is Larry shaking the
(13:54):
candy machine out to try to getextra Yes, those look like little Eminem's
or little ball Dean's or something likethat in there, plus a little gumbarel
balls. Look at Larry's haircut here? How uneven it is? Do you
see that with his bangs? Oh, that's the way they'd cut it.
The barber would cut your hair thatway, just like beavers. Look at
Larry's though, it's like, youknow, it was choppy. You know
(14:18):
what they would actually do, thebarbers what they would do, whatever your
part was, They comb your hairover here, and then they would cut
it up like it for a boy, like up on a d oh boy.
Here's Lumpy Rutherford. Look at thejackets on these guys. I love
Lumpy Ruthifford though. Oh yes,daddy, yaw, Lumpy's gonna make ITIM
(14:43):
real nervous, Yeah, Ryan says, I like the crunch toothpaste. I
don't remember that crunchy toothpaste? What'scrunchy tooth? I don't know. Fill
(15:05):
me in on that bran because Idon't know what that is either. Now
Lumpy scaring the Bejesus out of typicalLumpy. He's been in the tenth grade
for three years that they always sayabout him or something. Yes, it's
(15:26):
like sand, he said, Okay, so it's really grainy. I guess,
oh, okay, yeah, ithas an abrasive in it. Tom
says, what is worse than havinga toothpowl? Larry having his appendance taken
out? Man never said Alice Brackettor Bacchus played the nurse. I don't
(15:48):
know, that's just your name.I wonder if she's any relationship to Jim
Backus, mister Magoo and you knowthe guy, mister the guy on Gilligan's
Island, a millionaire. Oh thirstand hell the third right, Look at
(16:11):
these two guys here. Everybody's gotbeaver warrin to death. Larry always has
some type of food in his mouthconstantly, absolutely, and the jackets that
they wear, My god, listento the sound now, the guy doing
the jack caamer on the street.Beaver think that's that's that's what's going to
be coming for his teeth. Well, i'll say you back in the day,
(16:33):
it was something like that. Youknow the worst part when they do
your feelings is when they grind itdown you can smell it like that.
That was the thing when I gotmy my crown started the other way when
they were taking the tooth that Ibroke. And look at that roast she's
putting in the oven. Man,Yeah, Deva says his name is spelled
(16:56):
back as so maybe not a littledifferent spelling than the other one. Yes,
yes, yes, Look how shehangs the pots on her wall.
Yeah, oh sure, that wasvery popular in the day. I loved
it with the books too, howthey take the bookstrap at this point in
time and carry mar Zacha. Isthat how you guys carried your books.
(17:18):
Yes, we used to have arubber strap that went around it that would
tighten it very much. But alot of people would have an old belt.
I take one of Grandpa's old garrisonbelts. I know, I say
it all the time on the show, But as she's even cooking dinner,
look how stunning she looks. Yeah, she's got her pearls on cooking dinner.
(17:40):
I know you love it, thesimplicity of the house, the organ
It's just you could always smell thedentist office. You could smell the disinfected,
just like my sister Judy. Istill kind of find it like that
(18:03):
when you go in that you cansmell the disvection, and of course because
they have to sterilize it so good, when you go to the doctor,
you'd smell alcohol. I hate thesmell of the doctor's office too. The
dentist at least has like a tome, a better set than going to
a doctor's office. The doctors justhave that stale smell to it when you
go in there because the deodorizers allthe time and the bacteria, you know,
(18:26):
antibacteria stuff they put. Oh boy, he's lying again. He wanted
to get away from that. Yeah, you know, Beaver's not going to
sleep at night after this one.Look at his face. He's just dying
(18:48):
a thousand deaths. She gets it, though she's not mad about it.
It's not like he's being malicious here. He just doesn't want to go to
the dentist. That would be thefirst thing I asked Doctor Talbin. Was
my dentist am I gonna get aneedle. You know you hated needles that
much. Well, I never hada needle in my mouth before. You
know, if there would be aproblem with your tooth, you know,
he tell you that, hey,this is gonna be a big filling,
(19:11):
and that's gonna be a while.I know some people have this like they're
just petrified of because of needles,because because dentistry and a lot of medical
procedures was not paying free. Yeah, it's like when the doctor. I
lived in an era when doctors wouldmake house calls and when they give you
(19:33):
a shot, you can smell thealcohol. You have, a big,
big needle would come out and you'dbe you'd be like, you know,
waiting to die. Does anybody rememberor did you have doctors that did have
house calls for you when you werewhen you were younger? To anybody anybody
have that? I know, Iknow it's very common back then. Oh
yes, our doctor is doctor Leeban, and all doctors had cadillacts, black
(19:56):
cadillacts, and they would have anempty plight. Just think if Larry's mother
never got married, she could havebeen in that office. Yep, we're
just here with the commercial for twelveseconds or so, and then we'll be
(20:17):
right back to the dentist, andpoor Beaver is gonna go get there.
You know, when you look atthis though, once again, it goes
right back to your thing with Juneand in her pearls and things on the
wall, the white picket fence,even the doctor's office, everything is Look,
it's just look at their bedroom,one little desk, a lamb.
(20:38):
It's so simplistic and perfect. Yes, you know, nothing's overdone. No,
Yes, Larry's Larry's mom was adental nurse in case we didn't know,
Yeah, I remember something like that. Now. I was like,
Larry's mom is so old looking,And do you think she was as friend
lake. Yeah, you think she'shis grandmother more than you think that she's
(21:02):
his you know, mother in it. She's a very famous character actors.
She was Aunt Harriet and Batman inthe sixties. Yeah, I believe you're
right. Yeah, I believe.When we saw her the first time,
I think they said she was inBatman a couple other big things. Oh,
(21:22):
yes, very very big, prettybig character actors. He's a good
guy, Wally. This is whatalways is. Yeah. He tries to
calm him down. Cathy said,she says our dog had tongue depressors with
lollipops on them. Goodness, tonguedepressors are the worst. I always like
(21:44):
it. I would always cough intheir face with that thing. I just
couldn't do it. The taste ofthe tongue depressor in it. Oh,
Match Blake was sick. Steve Eversaid when she did leave it to be,
oh my god, well, itkind of if she could have a
kid Larry's age there, I guess, you know, there's a there's there's
(22:07):
been a few Hollywood actors and actressesthat have recently come out. Cameron Diaz
at fifty one. Hey, Iknow it's possible. Yeah, it's just
not common, of course, youknow, especially during that time, at
least not where. Yeah you mightsee that, you know, but I
don't know. She as old asshe looks in it. She kind of
fits with Larry's character, I think, well for it, sure, and
(22:30):
it fits the stuff because Larry wouldalways talk about his older brother getting married
and all that stuff. Actually,Ward looks pretty old for having young kids.
Yes, I would agree very muchon that. He you know,
I don't know how much older heis in this than her as they portrayed
it. They're close en age orwhatever. He's got his butts and I
get it. You always notice thatpick up on that guy. I can't
(22:55):
help it. See I wore ashirt similar to Ward tonight. Is the
kind of the same kind of thing. Uh huh. I love that.
I love that sport code he's goton too. Man, that's actually a
good look at sports coat. ManBeavers all dressed up to go to the
(23:15):
dentist. That was you. Youbetter, you better be on your best
behavior to go to the doctor.You're a reflection of your parents. Yes,
you know what the amazing thing waswhen the doctor would come making a
house call. You could be sickas a dog and you would feel better.
It's a psychological phenomenon as soon ashe walked in, because the doctor
was a god. There was thedoctor's here. Thank god, he's gonna
(23:40):
fix everything the dentist this year,thank god, Tom says. After the
needle hit the gums, the restwas the breeze. Try whistling. Yeah,
you don't feel you don't feel muchof anything when they when they stick
all that medication in your gums.I always hate it because, like whatever
side they're doing it on, it'slike your face goes numb. You can
(24:04):
barely talk on that side. Thiswas a big, big deal. You
know. Also, what's not shownin this that's an idealized thing. I
don't know how you guys feel aboutit. If you came from a lower
middle class background or a background withsome poverty, you didn't get to go
to the desk. Yeah, yourparents didn't get to go to the was
(24:26):
their dental insurance back Yeah? Ididn't think so. You know, there
wasn't dental insurance or anything like that. Was there medical insurance back then?
Either? Yeah, my father belongedto what they called the HIP, the
Health Insurance program of New York Citybecause he was a city worker. Now,
see this is interesting here he's holdinghands with Beaver. Yeah, I
don't think in all and all thetime on the show, I've ever seen
(24:48):
him hold hands with him. Uh, that's funny that you mentioned that.
Yeah, well that would be theappropriate thing to do with him, well,
especially you know, like Ward's tryingto toughen him up here and give
him He's give him that pep talk. Now, come on, Beaver,
I remember the Brussels spouts episode yearslater, you're going to be a regular
(25:10):
little soldier. He said, Well, you know, this is that stuff
we talk about all the time,and in this era of time, I
would tend to agree with it.You didn't try and save your kids from
all the grief in the world.What you tried to do is teach them
as they met certain things that theywould have to face. Like the dentist
of the doctor. You teach himto cope with it. Look who's in
(25:30):
the office. Did you see itwith the girl? Oh? Boys?
Here, yes, Fred, Fredand Violet. Now, Amon said,
mister Hugh Beaumont was born in nineteenoh nine, so at this time he
would have been This was nineteen fiftyeight at this point, so he would
(25:51):
have been yeah, forty nine yearsold. Yeah, very old for having
kids at that point. I guessyou would say this is that's Angela Cartwright's
sister, if I'm not mistaken.Yeah, because Violet was in the second
or the third episode, right,it's the she's the gallon the original picture
Aliens with the alien plot. She'salso with Donald Sutherland in the remake of
(26:15):
Invasion of the Body Statue. Yousaw he just died the other day.
Yes, yeah, eighty eight yearsold. Wow. This They have a
lot of really big character actors andactresses in here, and of course Richard
Deacon. I mean when you lookat when you look at Fred Rutherford too,
he looks like an old man,especially with that haircut. Oh yes,
(26:37):
with that haircut. In the glasses, he does not look like he's
this guy that's a young father.Well, he was the famous guy on
the Dick Van Dyke show. Thatwas Mel the Boss. Okay, Carl
Reiner's brother in law. Those glasseson him too, that was that was
just those are the glasses that peoplewould wear in the sixties. If you
were in business in the fifties andsixties, you wear those horn rim glasses.
(27:03):
Yea. Even like his hair whenyou look at his hair with note
how bald he is on the topand everything. He doesn't want Beaver to
embarrass him now in front of hisoffice mate. He wants him to go
in and be and be a champabout it. All right, boy,
(27:25):
that's very funny when he aw that'san old timey thing. You are,
right boy, all right boy,yeah, you know it's funny when you
watch this. I guess parents feltthat the way that your kid behaved.
(27:45):
I wonder if I wonder if oldboy is gonna find out that his son
is the one that put it inhis head. Yeah, how condescending.
You gotta fine boy there, Ohbuddy, Now this guy plays the dentist
somebody I don't you know, haveBrian's book with me? Here to that
(28:07):
another really famous. This guy isso famous. He played the judge in
one of the episodes. This guy'splayed in Oh yeah, the one when
Wally takes him to the court orwhatever. He always plays a professor.
He always plays something like that,Hey, George, has it going great
to see my friend. Hi,George Beaver's about right to cry his eyes
out even worse. Yeah, he'sgotta be. I think in the series
(28:32):
multiple three or maybe I think he'sprobably at least three different times. I
can remember seeing him in it.I remember as the judge, now the
dentist, and I think he playsuh one time as like one of the
salesmen in one of the departments.Stuff. She could wow. See that's
(28:55):
a that's a win for him.If I hurt you, you get every
toy in the box. Frank Wilcox, Devna, Thanks Deborrah boy, he
said, that's that's exactly the dentalthing that they used on me. And
see the look at the drill thereis in a high speed drill like today,
(29:15):
it has a pulley and an elasticUh. Look at the difference in
the chairs too. They would pumpyou up like a But here he is,
here's the soap mhm. H Beaverwith his and with with with just
(29:38):
being a kid man. He justsays what's on his mind. Look at
the dental uh, the dental shirtuniform and everything else like that. Yep,
a right. You look at himnow, he's got the big smile
on his face that everything's done.Wow, Kathy says, Beab is going
(30:06):
to tell the dentists all about drillinga big hole to make more money up.
He had a connection with Hugh Beaumont. Look at this talk about today
where you have hippa, you can'tsay anything in front of anybody else.
Everybody could hear things through the Imean yeah, I mean the door is
right where he's drilling. This kid'stooth is right next to the waiting room.
I had that with when you actuallygo to a doctor's visit with doctor
(30:30):
Reef. He wasn't a dentist,a regular doctor, but he might be
talking behind a door and you couldactually hear the guy talking to people.
Oh man, work's not pleased withhim. No, he feels embarrassed by
him. Yes, well, henever likes Fred Bruther for to have one
(30:51):
leg up on him. Yep,Brian said, who who would have thought
a dentist would be a psychologist too? Yes, all in those days.
(31:14):
Oh boy, he's got that embarrassedlook on him as he tells that.
You know, well, he reallyacted out in front of everybody, he
did. But he's a little kid. You know. Somebody filled his head
with a bunch of nonsense. Youknow, you're impressionable as an eight year
old kid, and some older kidstelling him that he's gonna drill through your
mouth, you know, with everything, with this big nasty drill, it's
gonna hurt you. Wall's logic.Don't worry. I'll be proud of you
(31:44):
someday again. Worse than this stuff, as if you were a kid and
you had to give like my sisters. My sister had an appendix operation as
a kid. Oh man, thatwas a big deal. Word is like
festering right now. And this Oh, he's mad at himself. Yes,
(32:24):
hmm, yeah, fantasy. Goodpoint by him. Oh yeah, people
fantasize about their kids, but they'regoing to be like them when they're not
perfect. They get very angry orvery disappointed in him. Look at her
(32:49):
comforting him though, like like sucha wonderful wife that she is, you
know, to comfort him. He'sgot a pack of butts. The Yeah.
Right after that, in between scenes, he's so upset at himself,
you know, for he thinks helet him down, you know, and
he thinks he's set up a verybad expectation for the kid. And here
she comes in making him feel goodabout being a dad, telling him,
(33:10):
you know, you don't have tobe the perfect father. This is a
wonderful thing about the show, isthat the lessons learn and go up,
sideways down and support with one another. It's really something else. Quick commercial
before the end of Before the endof the show, folks, I got
(33:30):
about a minute. I had thatwith my underston and the baby the other
day. He was so tired asa young father, Yes, as a
young father. I mean he's reallyexhausted and everything else like that, and
the baby's really getting to him alittle bit keeping him up and everything else
like that, you know, andthe baby just doesn't settle down easily for
(33:50):
him. And I picked up thebaby and the baby's just stopped like that
to some kind of an old prowith that, like a lot of people
are. And he was so disappointed. I felt so bad for him,
and I said, oh, Isaid, no, that's nothing, that's
just a coincidence. Where was hedisappointed because he felt like he was letting
him down, and it wasn't feltlike he wasn't being a good father.
He felt like he didn't know whatthe hell he was doing. And I
(34:12):
guess you don't when you're a newfather. In many hoss you don't.
But for me, I had theopportunity to take care of my nephews and
nieces and see babies all around theplace I had children before, and everything
else, and that that stuff doesn'tworry me anymore in life like it might
him. I know, I'm notgoing to be doing that twenty four hours
a day. It's the same thinglike this. It happens to everybody.
(34:34):
Of course, you know, ithappens to everybody. You were coming in.
He's all happy now, absolutely,It's look at that he's self correct.
He's admitting that he was meanting hewas wrong. Right. What a
(34:57):
good man, what a good fathershould do? Good and beaver mm hmmm,
you'd have to do a lot worsethan that. Before I stopped liking
you. I love it. Yeah, you know. The only thing,
the only thing with this, it'sso sad. In the sixties, he
(35:19):
doesn't get a kiss. Yeah,that would be that just wasn't common.
You know, it would be alittle feminist. Yeah, they wouldn't want
to, you know it. Youknow, today, of course it would
be much different. But you know, back in the day, that was
a really good episode. Yeah,it was very nice. I hope you
guys didn't mind us looking at itcold with you and with the hail out
there. I'm so sorry, sorryto beginning there for a very touching,
(35:43):
very touching episode. I like that, I really do. I like that.
I like the moral at the endof the story with him where he
really learned an important lesson as afather, and it was it was nice
to see how he kind of felt, you know, he kind of felt
like how he let him down andeverything more. And you saw that both
of them felt that they let eachother. But at the end, you
know, they both realized that theydidn't let each other down, you know,
(36:05):
in their own way, that they'reboth just human and make mistakes.
Yeah, that's a good part ofit, you know what. You know,
what I find I don't know ifyou guys find by watching shows like
this, you know, like watchingyou know, history or something else.
But this this show has a lotof moral lessons. It's very funny.
The point that I'm at in mylife with my family, I find that,
believe it or not, even youknow, with what I know professionally
(36:28):
and everything else, I use alot of the same things that I see
here as a guideline. And thisfamily is wonderful, and I try and
do that with my family, andI see my family try and do that
with me. Lots of things infamilies, it's nice to work them out
together, just to support other peoplein all kinds of little ways, because
every family has their own their ownmoment, their own style, their own
(36:50):
moments, and it's uh, believeit to Beaver is very very instructive always,
I don't know if you guys.Besides being tremendously entertaining and wonderful and
so swim eat and full of nicethings and and something that you can go
to sleep and watch or wake upand have a nice day. It really,
it really is an instructive show tome. I know, oh,
