Unofficial Thread of Newbridge Family Trees

[Mr. Spacely]

I haven't listened yet (I'm way behind), but I've updated the Tree!

Namaste.

[Mr. Spacely]

Finally catching up on shows/calls.

The PBR call from three weeks back (the one where he attends a Romney function) had a brief reference to Roy attending his Uncle Mort's funeral.

The tree has been updated, accordingly.

Fun Fact for Fellow  Newbridgophiles!

There are *4* Morts/Mortons among Newbridge's many families. I am unsure whether these are all unique Morts, or if some bounce around between families (two of them are "ste-puncles").

[Mr. Spacely]

Updated with info from the Flesh drummer call. Say hello to Shelia Larson's mom, Rhonda!

[nowah]

Don't have the date of the show, but this tweet from Emma in C-Ville's @OldBestShowWFMU seems to indicate a HUGE and not yet documented connection: Roland "The Gorch" Gorchnik is Sheila Larson's granduncle, and therefore Tom's future granduncle-in-law (maybe already his granduncle-in-law via Dom... I'm so confused)!

"I live with my nephew and his daughter. Hang on, here she comes now. (To her) Sheila, you get away from here! You take it outside!" - Gorch

[Mr. Spacely]

Okay, after this past week's fabulous appearance from the great Roger Scharpling, I've updated the Tree once again!

New additions include:

Roderick Davies, an unknown relative of Montgomery Davies/former Newbridge mayor in the 80s. I assume 78-88, since Newbridge mayors serve a ten-year-term and last election fell on an ---8 year (2008 for Mayor Ziegler).

Dieter von Trimble. Now, Roger referred to Dieter as Timmy's father, but previously we'd heard his father called "Adolph." So maybe Roger was just confused?

Ron Monroe, an unknown Monroe family member who headed up Newbridge Pride Parade planning.

A brief reference to Tom's paternal grandfather, name unknown.

And finally, we had verification of all of Tom's non-Dom brothers - Ron, Lon, Sean, Jon, and Danny. Even San, the former exchange student! No mention of the two sisters, though.

Anyway, that's all. I hope one day Tom and/or Jon find this thread and see the sheer scope of the beautiful madness they've created!

Considering the high-grade designer drugs that litter Roger's past, I think it's safe to say that he was confused.  I believe Adolph von Trimble to be Timmy's father.  Dieter was likely a deranged stepuncle.

Omar has spoken.  And I agree, in my own, small way.

Catching up on calls in 2013...

I've added Miles Coltrane "MC" "Stench" Monroe and his seven kids. Miles is one of the *17* Monroe Brothers (siblings? Does Patriarch Frank produce female offspring???)

Also, Darren mentioned for the first time that he has a little sister (though she went unnamed), so I added her.

Jerry van Dyke's Crime Crunchers gets mentioned in several other calls (I believe the long discussion is in the first Matthew Tompkins call). Alas, I cannot remember which.

[Mr. Spacely]

I believe the first appearance of Dom Scharpling in Summer 2007 talks a little about Shout, and how Dom wants to sell them a TV show idea of his called "Ancient Chinese Secret."

Wasn't "The Reggae Kid" a show on Shout!? I loved that show.

Exactly what I was looking for in help!  Thank you!

Hello knowledgeable folks --

Did I imagine that there is a link between the Shout Network and Trent L Strauss?

Please help.

Thank you!
