    Great interview. You give your guests the opportunity to talk. I appreciate the history of the television I grew up watching in the 60s and 70s. Most recently your conversation with Haywood Nelson fascinated me, cool kid back then, great guy now. Keep up the good work and thanks.

  • Fun & Interesting Stories!

    Love hearing behind-the-scenes stories of fav classic shows. I would love to see Dorothy Lyman as a guest, mainly to talk about “Mama’s Family,” and other stories, of course. I’m too shy to leave a voicemail, so I hope John sees this suggestion :)
