00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:05.719
<v Speaker 1>It's Nights with Dan Ray. I'm Bill bas Boston's new.

2
00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:10.919
<v Speaker 2>Radio our number three two hours left to twenty twenty four.

3
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:17.760
<v Speaker 2>My guest Kemeira and me Morgan White Junior. We have

4
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:21.640
<v Speaker 2>found a way to keep you occupied as the minutes

5
00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:25.920
<v Speaker 2>keep dwindling away from twenty twenty four. It's a game

6
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:30.879
<v Speaker 2>I call Morgan's Hall of Fame. Only two ways to

7
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:34.479
<v Speaker 2>get in. One. You had to be the star, one

8
00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:40.880
<v Speaker 2>of the stars of a prime time TV series. In

9
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:44.960
<v Speaker 2>the old days, primetime began at seven point thirty and

10
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 2>somewhere in the early to mid seventies they bumped it.

11
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:52.399
<v Speaker 2>Primetime began at eight and ended at eleven. So your

12
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:55.520
<v Speaker 2>TV series had to be in that window. And you

13
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 2>had to be part of a TV series for ten

14
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:05.879
<v Speaker 2>years minimum, either like ten years straight through. Jim Rorness

15
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:10.480
<v Speaker 2>he counts because he was on Gunsmoke is Major Major

16
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:22.159
<v Speaker 2>Marshall Matt Dylan Major Math for Major Map, so he

17
00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:27.319
<v Speaker 2>was there for twenty years, so that incorporates ten years,

18
00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 2>and that was a primetime series. There are many, many, many,

19
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:36.799
<v Speaker 2>many more people we've given some who when you add

20
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:42.400
<v Speaker 2>there being in two, three, four series or more, you

21
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.640
<v Speaker 2>get to that figure of ten let's go to Lake

22
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.680
<v Speaker 2>Placid in Ken's former home state of New York and

23
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:50.200

37
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.560

00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:56.800

50
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:35.919
<v Speaker 2>David McCallum, he would count. He played a character named Ducky.

51
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:40.280
<v Speaker 2>David McCallum would count with the Man from Uncle. The

<v Speaker 2>Invisible Man, which was a show that ran only like

53

54
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:54.199

<v Speaker 4>Andy Griffith, Andy.

65
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:34.199
<v Speaker 2>Griffith counts for a number of shows speaking Andy Griffith

66
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:39.439
<v Speaker 2>with Rob and he counts obviously for the two main

67
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:43.199
<v Speaker 2>shows of Matt Locke and The Andy Griffith Show. And

68
00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:45.680
<v Speaker 2>he had a show for one season where he was

69
00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:52.360
<v Speaker 2>the headmaster of a California high school called Headmaster, and

70
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:58.480
<v Speaker 2>as well Holly Ron Howard would count as well because

71
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:03.480
<v Speaker 2>he had four are a five series, but just being

72
00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:05.519
<v Speaker 2>unhappy days alone would count for him.

73
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:08.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'll give you one more.

74
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Don Knutts, help me get to ten with Don Knotts.

75
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Pardon give me his ten years?

76
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:23.680
<v Speaker 4>Andy Griffiths, all right?

77
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.040
<v Speaker 2>And after season five.

78
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:28.959
<v Speaker 4>Three, yeah, and three's company.

79
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:32.279
<v Speaker 2>There you go. He was there for five seasons, so

80
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:39.160
<v Speaker 2>that's ten and he had kind of a truncated season

81
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:40.160
<v Speaker 2>with Matt Locke.

82
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, he was on that show. Yeah yeah, yeah, Okay,

83
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:49.680
<v Speaker 4>but I think I think Griffiths did that as a

84
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:52.480
<v Speaker 4>favor to him to put him, to put him in

85
00:05:52.519 --> 00:05:55.680
<v Speaker 4>that show because it was a so so part.

86
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:59.600
<v Speaker 2>I thought, well, you know the funny thing about that

87
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:04.680
<v Speaker 2>and me, he has played this up. He would do

88
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:09.800
<v Speaker 2>identical scenes that he did with Andy Griffith on The

89
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Andy Griffith Show and Matlock. There was a scene where

90
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:18.959
<v Speaker 2>Barney thought he could do judo or karate and almost

91
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:25.160
<v Speaker 2>move from move. They recreated that on Matlock, or the

92
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:31.040
<v Speaker 2>scene where Barney said, Andy, I got some big news.

93
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:34.560
<v Speaker 2>It's big, it's big, big, big big, and he did

94
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:41.360
<v Speaker 2>the exact same setup of Matlock. And yeah, it was cute,

95
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:44.040
<v Speaker 2>and those of us who liked Trivia kind of tip

96

163
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:44.799

166
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:56.720
<v Speaker 3>oldest term generation is the people born in the forties.

167

174
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.559
<v Speaker 2>late for my break. I'm supposed to take it at

175
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:24.440
<v Speaker 2>ten fifteen, but no, it's ten seventeen here on night

176
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.600
<v Speaker 2>Side forty four degrees.

177
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:30.559
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray Live from the Window World

178
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:35.559
<v Speaker 1>Nightside Studios on WBZ News Radio tick.

179
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:39.480
<v Speaker 2>We keep getting closer to the year twenty twenty five.

180
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:44.080
<v Speaker 2>And before I go to the phone, I want to

181
00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:47.600
<v Speaker 2>tell you we have one open line and ken Meyer

182
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:51.960
<v Speaker 2>and I are playing a little game. You have to

183
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:57.360
<v Speaker 2>have two qualifiers. One, you have to be an actor

184
00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:03.799
<v Speaker 2>in a prime time series. That's one of the two qualifiers.

185
00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:09.399
<v Speaker 2>Prime Time was between it is now between eight and eleven.

186
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:14.360
<v Speaker 2>It used to be between seven thirty and eleven. As well.

187
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:19.200
<v Speaker 2>You have to have had ten years service on TV.

188
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:23.200
<v Speaker 2>It could be in one TV show like the previous

189
00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>caller mentioned Sam Waterston, who played the character of Jack

190
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:33.840
<v Speaker 2>McCoy for over twenty years in Lauren Order. So if

191
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:38.320
<v Speaker 2>you can think of somebody who had one series or

192
00:12:38.399 --> 00:12:43.159
<v Speaker 2>a number of series where their work on TV spanned

193
00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:49.399
<v Speaker 2>ten seasons or more. Florence and Grovelan, how are you?

194
00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:54.639
<v Speaker 6>Florence A very good Morgan and good evening to you

195
00:12:55.120 --> 00:13:02.919
<v Speaker 6>and Karen good Eving want to ask you did anyone

196
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:13.840
<v Speaker 6>mention Tom Bardsley not yet. Okay. He had three series

197
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:14.759
<v Speaker 6>that I know of.

198
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:16.360
<v Speaker 2>What are they?

199
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:18.480
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

200
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:23.159
<v Speaker 6>Well, he had a series called I Believe Father.

201
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:26.519
<v Speaker 2>Doning Father do Histories?

202
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:32.519
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, and he had Happy Days and Murder.

203
00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:36.720
<v Speaker 2>She wrote Happy Days eleven years and he was a

204
00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:42.879
<v Speaker 2>reoccurring character in Jessica's Town or Murder she wrote he was.

205
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:46.799
<v Speaker 6>So does he count?

206
00:13:47.720 --> 00:13:48.120
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

207
00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:50.720
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah?

208
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:56.159
<v Speaker 6>Okay, I thank you and Morgan if she left me?

209
00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:06.559
<v Speaker 6>Can I say happy year to Ken? To you, Nancy

210
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 6>and Jack? Okay?

211
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:15.799
<v Speaker 2>How come Ken gets top billing? He's here and I'm.

212
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:18.840
<v Speaker 6>Here if you want to know why, Morgan, you want

213
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:25.600
<v Speaker 6>to know why, because very very short while back, I

214
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:30.360
<v Speaker 6>had mentioned Jack first and then the guests, and you

215
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:36.480
<v Speaker 6>didn't like that. Do you recall it?

216
00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:38.200
<v Speaker 2>And I'm teasing that.

217
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:42.279
<v Speaker 6>I've got a pretty good memory, as you know.

218
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:46.919
<v Speaker 2>As do I. I'm only doing this. I'm doing this

219
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:52.120
<v Speaker 2>for stick. I could care less if you mentioned Ken first, second, third,

220
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:57.480
<v Speaker 2>or fourth. Well I mentioned fourth. She should be upset

221
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:00.000
<v Speaker 2>about that, shakes her head.

222
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:05.120
<v Speaker 6>No, No, because Nancy will agree that Ken is the guest.

223
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:06.679
<v Speaker 3>He is.

224
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:09.840
<v Speaker 6>All right? Correct?

225
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Correct?

226
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:11.240
<v Speaker 5>Ken?

227
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:12.200
<v Speaker 6>Right?

228
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:13.399
<v Speaker 4>Okay?

229
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:19.720
<v Speaker 6>All right? Uh yeah, I thought of Tom and I

230
00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:23.480
<v Speaker 6>didn't because I only came in at nineteen thirty, so

231
00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:29.759
<v Speaker 6>okay to can't you? And so I wasn't sure, you know,

232
00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:32.360
<v Speaker 6>if someone had already mentioned him.

233
00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:35.039
<v Speaker 2>Were you at some wild party tonight for a New

234
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:36.240
<v Speaker 2>Years before the show?

235
00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:40.799
<v Speaker 6>No? No, just just just a neighbor.

236
00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:45.759
<v Speaker 2>You weren't dancing wildly with a lampshade on your head.

237
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:54.000
<v Speaker 6>No, I don't do those things. Oh all right, yeah,

238
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:58.879
<v Speaker 6>and you know I don't have my spouse. I think

239
00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:04.159
<v Speaker 6>you've heard me mention that, you know, he'sed de seized.

240
00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:13.799
<v Speaker 6>And but I got my sons, you know, and of

241
00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:18.159
<v Speaker 6>course they go out with their better hobs to celebrate,

242
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:21.919

<v Speaker 2>You're celebrating with us?

244
00:16:25.799 --> 00:16:30.279
<v Speaker 6>And so yeah, so I thought I would get me

00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:51.000

<v Speaker 6>Let's oh yeah, it's gotta be good, a good number.

<v Speaker 3>Night, good night, good night.

254
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:10.759
<v Speaker 2>All right, I'm gonna throw it a few more. Let

255
00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:14.400
<v Speaker 2>me get my piece of paper where I can read it.

256
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:21.039
<v Speaker 2>Bob Denver, Oh yeah, everybody forgets. He had four different

257
00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:26.279
<v Speaker 2>TV series. He was on Dobie Gillis, he was on

258
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:31.079
<v Speaker 2>Gilligan's Island, he was on a show called The Good Guys,

259
00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:36.799
<v Speaker 2>and the show one year that was basically Gilligan's Island

260
00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:45.920
<v Speaker 2>in the late eighteen sixties called Dusty's Trail People seven

261
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:50.319
<v Speaker 2>people lost on a stage coach and trust me, eventually

262
00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:54.799
<v Speaker 2>the stage coach has caught in a town. Eventually that

263
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:59.039
<v Speaker 2>was the plotline. So that's why Bob Denver is in

264
00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:05.279
<v Speaker 2>my Hall of We mentioned June Lockhart, Lucy obviously, James

265
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:11.200
<v Speaker 2>Garner with just two of his series of his four series,

266
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Rockford Files and Maverick. Also he was in another series

267
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:23.839
<v Speaker 2>where he was a sheriff called Nichols and well, let

268
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:27.599
<v Speaker 2>me move on to one more because I have a

269
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:31.839
<v Speaker 2>break creeping up on me when we leave. James garn

270
00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:35.839
<v Speaker 2>Tim Allen, and here's an unusual thing about Tim Allen.

271
00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:44.599
<v Speaker 2>He had Home Improvement where he played a father married

272
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:50.240
<v Speaker 2>with three sons, then Last Man Standing where he played

273
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:54.880
<v Speaker 2>a father married with three daughters, and both of those

274
00:18:54.920 --> 00:19:00.359
<v Speaker 2>series ran for eight seasons. So Tim Allen counts, try

275
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:02.079
<v Speaker 2>to squeeze one more on before I have a break

276
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:06.559
<v Speaker 2>to take Lou and match p line one. Lou good

277
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:08.240
<v Speaker 2>evening her.

<v Speaker 4>More?

279
00:19:10.119 --> 00:19:15.480
<v Speaker 7>And okay about how about Blonde Green?

280
00:19:16.799 --> 00:19:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh we mentioned him. Don't even go there.

281
00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:21.039
<v Speaker 7>I just jumped on.

282
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.240
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Tom Selleck.

283
00:19:24.759 --> 00:19:28.400
<v Speaker 2>We mentioned him as well, you're doing this for almost

284
00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:30.960
<v Speaker 2>ninety minutes.

285
00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:32.160

00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:43.000
<v Speaker 7>Oh good, thank you.

291
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:50.559
<v Speaker 2>where he was on eleven seasons.

292
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:54.039
<v Speaker 7>Right, all right, I gotta I got a question for more.

<v Speaker 2>Happy new.

334
00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:31.960
<v Speaker 5>Year, Thank you, sir. I hope you have having a

335
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:35.559
<v Speaker 5>good night. There's two people I thought of. They're both

336
00:22:35.559 --> 00:22:40.119
<v Speaker 5>from the same show, Dennis Franz and Gordon Clapp and

337
00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:45.119
<v Speaker 5>White PD Blue. I'm pretty yeah, I'm pretty sure they

338
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:48.240
<v Speaker 5>are on more than like six certain seasons or something,

339
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:51.519
<v Speaker 5>you know, right. And the funny thing is, I never

340
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:53.200
<v Speaker 5>really watched the show when it was on, but I

341
00:22:53.839 --> 00:22:56.960
<v Speaker 5>watch it now in you know, Netflix or whatever whatever

342
00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:58.319
<v Speaker 5>streaming service I have.

343
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:02.599
<v Speaker 2>That is so true for a lot of you know,

344
00:23:02.720 --> 00:23:05.279
<v Speaker 2>they came and they went, they didn't pay attention to them,

345
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:07.880
<v Speaker 2>but now you've learned to kind of like them.

346
00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:13.319
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, exactly. So to figure out out my two cents worth?

347
00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:18.440
<v Speaker 2>And how come you're home tonight, Well, I.

348
00:23:18.559 --> 00:23:21.319
<v Speaker 5>Had a few things to do, but I am exhausted.

349
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:23.799
<v Speaker 5>I'm not going to welcome the new year. I'm hitting

350
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:26.480
<v Speaker 5>the sack early because I got a Philly busy day tomorrow,

351
00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:30.000
<v Speaker 5>so I'm going to bed soon. But yeah, just just

352
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:30.599
<v Speaker 5>chilling out.

353
00:23:31.400 --> 00:23:32.920
<v Speaker 2>Good to get some extra shut eye.

354
00:23:34.200 --> 00:23:34.839
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's it.

355
00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:35.920
<v Speaker 4>Enjoying the show.

356
00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:43.319
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Tim, Thank you, Bob and Lunenberg. You're next

357

<v Speaker 4>I've got one.

360
00:23:50.680 --> 00:23:54.960
<v Speaker 3>I've got one. I think they had ten years of service,

361
00:23:55.640 --> 00:23:59.319
<v Speaker 3>would be Sherman Helmfully, that's.

362
00:23:59.119 --> 00:24:04.720
<v Speaker 2>A good show, and the cast of the Jeffersons moving on.

363
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:12.480
<v Speaker 3>Up Jeffersons and A and Amen, that was his show.

364
00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes he did, but he nailed it with the Jeffersons alone,

365
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:23.359
<v Speaker 2>but adding good measure. Amen, and you've got a winning

366

00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:27.759

397
00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:34.400
<v Speaker 8>first one was Mary McDonald from both Major Crimes and

398
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:36.079
<v Speaker 8>Battlestar Galactica.

399
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:39.279
<v Speaker 2>Good good name, very good name.

400
00:26:40.640 --> 00:26:43.279
<v Speaker 8>And Patricia Heaton.

401
00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, she was eight years with Tim Allen on

402
00:26:54.400 --> 00:26:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Give me a second. I've got a mental block on

403
00:26:57.039 --> 00:26:59.960
<v Speaker 2>the title Tim the Two Man.

404
00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:02.720
<v Speaker 8>TA yeah right.

405
00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:09.079
<v Speaker 2>But she also had two other shows of her own.

406
00:27:11.839 --> 00:27:13.920
<v Speaker 4>She was Everybody Goes from Raymond.

407
00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:17.759
<v Speaker 8>Yes and also and also The Middle.

408
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:23.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I like the Middle. I don't know why, but

409
00:27:23.160 --> 00:27:24.119
<v Speaker 2>I like that show.

410
00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:30.880
<v Speaker 8>I know, I just didn't get enough credit. Yeah, but

411
00:27:31.079 --> 00:27:34.759
<v Speaker 8>I don't know if anyone mentioned Jean Smart or Jane Leaves.

412
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:39.880
<v Speaker 2>No one mentioned Jean Smart because Jean Smart was in

413
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:44.759
<v Speaker 2>Designing Women, right, and what was the because on Designing Women,

414
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:48.160
<v Speaker 2>I think that was on six seasons? And what was

415
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:48.880
<v Speaker 2>her own show.

416
00:27:50.440 --> 00:27:59.799
<v Speaker 8>She's in Hacks right now. It's an HBO show that counts. Yeah,

417
00:27:59.240 --> 00:28:02.079
<v Speaker 8>and then Jane leaves Frasier.

418
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:08.079
<v Speaker 3>Primarily, I'm going back to Jean Smart.

419
00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:12.359
<v Speaker 2>I always thought she was just one of those quietly

420
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:20.519
<v Speaker 2>attractive women and Designing women and give me the other

421
00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:24.640

435
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:17.400
<v Speaker 2>When I was married, and that would be through the

436
00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:21.799
<v Speaker 2>seventies into the eighties, my ex and I would have

437
00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:26.599
<v Speaker 2>a lobster dinner at home and a beverage to help

00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:44.039
<v Speaker 9>Remember that?

462
00:30:44.119 --> 00:30:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Three years The Magician.

463
00:30:47.680 --> 00:30:53.319
<v Speaker 9>I forgot about that one. I forgot about Father of course, yes.

464
00:30:53.319 --> 00:30:57.640
<v Speaker 2>At seven and The Incredible Hulk four years eleven.

465
00:30:57.839 --> 00:31:03.440
<v Speaker 9>Yep, yep, yeah, I forgot about the Magician show. But yeah,

466
00:31:03.480 --> 00:31:05.200
<v Speaker 9>that that's all. Like I said, I was a little

467
00:31:05.240 --> 00:31:07.680
<v Speaker 9>late to the to the show. So that's the only

468
00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:08.960
<v Speaker 9>name I can come on with.

469
00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:10.799
<v Speaker 4>That's a good one.

470
00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:12.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, No, it's.

471
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:19.279
<v Speaker 9>Well, I used to work with you. I used to

472
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:21.039
<v Speaker 9>work with you a lot because I used to work

473
00:31:21.079 --> 00:31:24.559
<v Speaker 9>for First Night and you'd always have your show at

474
00:31:24.599 --> 00:31:28.039
<v Speaker 9>the hind Center years ago, and I did that for

475
00:31:28.079 --> 00:31:31.160
<v Speaker 9>a number of years. But uh, you know, I'm back,

476
00:31:31.240 --> 00:31:34.319
<v Speaker 9>I'm retired on the Cape, and uh there's a First

477
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:36.599
<v Speaker 9>Night little celebration. Yes I shouldn't say little.

478
00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:41.759
<v Speaker 5>It's pretty big over and Chatham. But I walk around

479
00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:43.599
<v Speaker 5>with a cane now, so I just I just kind

480
00:31:43.599 --> 00:31:45.680
<v Speaker 5>of lay low, I.

481
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:49.559
<v Speaker 2>Understand, because I should be walking around with a cane,

482
00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:53.839
<v Speaker 2>balance myself a little more to the left when I

483
00:31:53.920 --> 00:31:56.680
<v Speaker 2>need it.

484
00:31:56.960 --> 00:32:01.279
<v Speaker 4>Very good. Okay, Well, thanks for taking my call.

485
00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Phil, thank you for making the call, and happy New

00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:10.000
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Happy new to both by all right, thank you, Ken.

488
00:32:10.480 --> 00:32:16.000
<v Speaker 2>We've exhausted all the phone calls. I could do something

489
00:32:16.039 --> 00:32:18.319
<v Speaker 2>to say something, which you get one or two calls

490
00:32:19.400 --> 00:32:25.079
<v Speaker 2>to push the buttons on the phone. But I'm going

491
00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:25.960
<v Speaker 2>to interview you.

492
00:32:27.319 --> 00:32:29.720
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'm available.

493
00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:36.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if you don't mind, No, I don't mind. Tell

494
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:37.720
<v Speaker 2>people what get you in the radio?

495
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:46.519
<v Speaker 4>Well, I always, I always liked it. Radio was I

496
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:49.599
<v Speaker 4>thought in his heyday. When I came into the world

497
00:32:50.599 --> 00:32:54.799
<v Speaker 4>and I used to listen old time radio was still active,

498
00:32:55.640 --> 00:33:00.200
<v Speaker 4>and I, you know, grew up with shows what the

499
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:05.720
<v Speaker 4>Lone Ranger and Sergeant Preston and Nick Carter Master Detective

500
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:12.920
<v Speaker 4>And even in school I still kept track of radio shows.

501
00:33:13.359 --> 00:33:18.039
<v Speaker 4>In fact, my mother god Bosser, used to tape two

502
00:33:18.079 --> 00:33:20.839
<v Speaker 4>soap operas during the week there were ro Massive Ellen

503
00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:25.240
<v Speaker 4>Trent and our Dale Sunday, and I would then come

504
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:28.440
<v Speaker 4>home on the weekend in Wilston school, so I was

505
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:34.039
<v Speaker 4>able to follow what was going on. And when I

506
00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:39.559
<v Speaker 4>got close to graduation, I knew that I wanted to

507
00:33:39.559 --> 00:33:45.039
<v Speaker 4>get into radio, and where I was in school, they

508
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:48.079
<v Speaker 4>were all for it, but they didn't have the knowledge

509
00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:53.279
<v Speaker 4>or the contacts to help carry it out. And I had,

510
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:57.759
<v Speaker 4>through a series of events, become friendly with the program

511
00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:02.759
<v Speaker 4>director at WHIM in Rochester, which was a big station

512
00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:08.519
<v Speaker 4>like wb Z, and he suggested that I go to

513
00:34:09.159 --> 00:34:16.679
<v Speaker 4>Graham Junior College in Boston, which handled broadcasting. I had

514
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:22.840
<v Speaker 4>a broadcasting setup, so he wrote me a letter of recommendation.

515
00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:31.360
<v Speaker 4>I went to Graham and graduated and became very friendly

516
00:34:31.440 --> 00:34:37.320
<v Speaker 4>with a gentleman who worked at Graham and WEI At

517
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:43.000
<v Speaker 4>whom you knew, named Dick Walsh. And my parents and

518
00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:47.079
<v Speaker 4>I came to Boston in the summer of nineteen seventy

519
00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:50.559
<v Speaker 4>because I wasn't getting anywhere trying to find a job,

520
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:56.280
<v Speaker 4>and there was a member of the board of trustees

521
00:34:56.360 --> 00:35:03.679
<v Speaker 4>at Graham named Lamont Thompson, and we got in touch

522
00:35:03.719 --> 00:35:08.400
<v Speaker 4>with him, and he arranged for me to go to

523
00:35:10.519 --> 00:35:17.039
<v Speaker 4>WI and meet the program director over there and talked

524
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:19.920
<v Speaker 4>to him, and I did. His name was Bill Schupert,

525
00:35:20.880 --> 00:35:24.199
<v Speaker 4>and it so happened that he and Dick Walsh used

526
00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:28.719
<v Speaker 4>to work together at that station when it first became

527
00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:34.880
<v Speaker 4>all news. So Bill Schupert called him on the phone

528
00:35:35.119 --> 00:35:42.079
<v Speaker 4>and a rapport was built up and through the vocational

529
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:49.960
<v Speaker 4>Rehab service in Rochester and the patients of WBZ, I

530
00:35:50.039 --> 00:35:55.119
<v Speaker 4>got hired. While I was interviewed by Bill Schupert, he

531
00:35:55.199 --> 00:35:58.920
<v Speaker 4>said is there anyone you'd like to meet? And I said, yeah,

532
00:35:59.239 --> 00:36:04.440
<v Speaker 4>Guy Manilla. So they brought me downstairs to his office

533
00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:09.440
<v Speaker 4>and we talked for a while, and I found out

534
00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:14.079
<v Speaker 4>later that Manila asked Lemon Thompson, he said, what do

535
00:36:14.119 --> 00:36:18.440
<v Speaker 4>you think? And Thompson said, this station's big enough and

536
00:36:18.599 --> 00:36:22.639
<v Speaker 4>this kid deserves a chance. And I'll always be grateful

537
00:36:22.760 --> 00:36:26.039
<v Speaker 4>to Guy Manila for that. I think it helped a

538
00:36:26.079 --> 00:36:31.599
<v Speaker 4>great deal in my getting a job there. And three

539
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:35.079
<v Speaker 4>or four days of just hanging around the station for

540
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:38.440
<v Speaker 4>a while, finally Bill Schupert said, I want you to

541
00:36:38.480 --> 00:36:44.840
<v Speaker 4>start working with Larry Glick. And of course everybody listened

542
00:36:44.840 --> 00:36:49.599
<v Speaker 4>to Larry Glick, you know, And so I started working

543
00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:53.639
<v Speaker 4>with him, and you know, as Paul Harvey used to say,

544
00:36:53.639 --> 00:36:58.480
<v Speaker 4>the rest is history. I worked with Larry. One of

545
00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:03.760
<v Speaker 4>the big shrials of my life was when WBZ celebrated

546
00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:11.840
<v Speaker 4>their fiftieth anniversary and broadcasting in nineteen seventy one and

547
00:37:12.039 --> 00:37:18.559
<v Speaker 4>Jerry Williams hosted a to midnight, five nights a week,

548
00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:22.840
<v Speaker 4>all old time radio people, each one and a half

549
00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:27.199
<v Speaker 4>hour long. We had people like Bob Hope, are at Link, Litter,

550
00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:33.760
<v Speaker 4>Jerry Colowna, Oh gosh, it's so hard for me to

551
00:37:33.840 --> 00:37:41.119
<v Speaker 4>remember them all now. But about a year ago, Terry

552
00:37:41.159 --> 00:37:45.800
<v Speaker 4>and I were in Pennsylvania and visited Bob Oakes, who

553
00:37:46.000 --> 00:37:49.480
<v Speaker 4>was the program director at the time, and I said

554
00:37:49.480 --> 00:37:52.800
<v Speaker 4>to him, I said, Bob, how did you know or

555
00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:56.360
<v Speaker 4>what made you think that I could I could handle

556
00:37:56.960 --> 00:38:00.840
<v Speaker 4>a presentation like that? And he said, I just knew

557
00:38:00.880 --> 00:38:04.400
<v Speaker 4>how to stop talent. So that was one of the

558
00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:07.719
<v Speaker 4>big thrials of my life. I'll never forget that. There's

559
00:38:07.760 --> 00:38:10.880
<v Speaker 4>some of the stuff on YouTube. As a matter of fact,

560
00:38:11.440 --> 00:38:15.440
<v Speaker 4>the interview that Jerry did with Bob and Ray, the

561
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:18.800
<v Speaker 4>one that he did with Buffalo Bob Smith, and the

562
00:38:18.800 --> 00:38:22.159
<v Speaker 4>one that he did with Art Linkletter are all on YouTube.

563
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:25.920
<v Speaker 4>And I got a kick out of it because and

564
00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:28.639
<v Speaker 4>I had forgotten about it. Jerry called me into the

565
00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:32.559
<v Speaker 4>studio on the last broadcast to talk a little bit

566
00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:36.199
<v Speaker 4>about the show. And it's hard to believe that it's

567
00:38:36.239 --> 00:38:40.719
<v Speaker 4>over forty years ago, and you know, that's what I

568
00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:45.159
<v Speaker 4>sounded like, but it was. It was really something. And

569
00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:49.039
<v Speaker 4>of course Bezy had and still does have quite a signal.

570
00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:52.920
<v Speaker 4>And then in nineteen seventy five, we did an old

571
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:57.960
<v Speaker 4>radio weekend down on the Cape at Dumphy's Hyenas Resort

572
00:38:58.760 --> 00:39:02.159
<v Speaker 4>and it was busy. They called it Bez's Big Broadcast

573
00:39:02.239 --> 00:39:07.280
<v Speaker 4>of seventy five and we had the radio people live

574
00:39:08.199 --> 00:39:12.440
<v Speaker 4>doing their shows. Brett Morrison was there and did the Shadow,

575
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:18.119
<v Speaker 4>Julie Stevens was there and did the Romance of Helen Trent.

576
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:25.480
<v Speaker 4>We had people impersonating Fred Allenman and Jack Benny, and

577
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:29.679
<v Speaker 4>we had Don Wilson and Dennis Day from the Jack

578
00:39:29.719 --> 00:39:34.840
<v Speaker 4>Benny Show, and Kenny Delmar who was the announcer and

579
00:39:34.920 --> 00:39:40.800
<v Speaker 4>also Senator Claghorn there as well doing the show.

580
00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:42.800
<v Speaker 3>And it was just.

581
00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:45.800
<v Speaker 4>Something that I'll never forget.

582
00:39:46.400 --> 00:39:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I got to start you here because of time, but

583
00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:55.760
<v Speaker 2>I've had you join me on BZ Radio. Oh I'm

584
00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:01.760

<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty five be a bang up year for you, Ken.

590
00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:23.360
<v Speaker 4>And I feel the same way about you, Morgan. I

591
00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:26.679
<v Speaker 4>hope that it's an excellent year and we'll all win

592
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:27.920
<v Speaker 4>the lottery and retire.

<v Speaker 2>You're here, people, listening. I've got another hour. Because Elvis
