You're probably asking yourself "am I planning for every eventuality?" What's that? You're NOT? You really should be talking to Herbert R. Tarlek, Esquire. Mr. Tarlek is now representing one of the most prestigious Insurance Companies in North America. You've never heard of them, but they 've been featured on "60 Minutes" TWICE!

'The Monster Who Sold Life Insurance' has run amok in the halls of the Mighty KRP! Fellow employees are fish in a barrel to Herbert.  Les is no match for the Monster's persuasive powers. He buys  EVERYTHING, including Herb's boat, and he and gets the envelope in the mail! If he hadn't, he might not have been covered in the event of massive Scooter mayhem! Isn't it time for tea? Art wants to have another look at those policies and Les is heading for the hospital. Cinch up your helmet and put on your news poncho. We've got tea to drink and a boat on our tail!! Push 'play'...then, DUCK!!

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

What's a Sports Director to do? Les was challenged by WPIG, the Number One Station in the market, to a Softball game. The problem is, they're good...beat the Baptists, good. No way Les can back out now. He shook on it! He ALSO bet $200, which might carry more weight than the handshake. Jennifer says she'll play. Once the guys hear she plans to play in her new red short-shorts, suddenly Les has a team. The PIG's good, Station Manager Callahan is a jerk and Andy has the guns greased up to a high shine. Please bow and uncover as Bailey, the most wholesome among us, pleads for a little mercy.  Once we "play ball!" the Mighty KRP lays it all on the line. "Moose" Carlson comes alive in the 7th and the gang has a HECK of a day out at Shadow Ranch Park. Grab your peanuts and Cracker Jack...you might also want a little sunscreen (if Andy left any, that is)...and push 'play'.  If Pete Rose were a bettin' man, he'd probably take a little action  on this one.

Deja vu! It's Part Two of the start of Season TWO!! We spend the entire cold open reminding you about what happened last week...but don't skip it! They slip in a new line, and possibly a historic station designation!! Once we've got everyone who missed last week up to speed, we hit the ground running...er, sitting...with Bailey still in the station. She's doing some adorable  fretting about being stood up by Johnny. Meanwhile, Johnny is dealing with the fallout from Hurricane Buffy. He's going to get sued!! The man who has NOTHING is about to get sued! The evening continues...it's turning out to be almost as long as that version of "After the Love Has Gone" Venus was playing. Buffy continues to be as crazy as a loon, Johnny isn't feeling so good and the Sherry is running low!! Come on over!! But please knock, the doorbell costs a fortune. It's time to push 'play' fellow babies...the Two Part Season TWO Odyssey Continues.  I need some headache powder...

WELCOME BACK! 
It's the start of Season TWO!! The gang's all back...at least the on-camera gang is back. There are a bunch of new faces in the writer's room, we've moved the entire station from KTLA to the MTM lot and Johnny's getting sued! Season Two is kicking off with a 2-parter. An old flame of the Doctor's named Buffy has come to Cincinnati. It so happens, she's arrived the very same day that Bailey finally gets up the courage to ask Johnny out on a date. Bailey asks, Buffy calls and Johnny accepts...both! You'd think we'd be setting up a classic "two dates in the same restaurant" gag. Nope. Johnny completely forgets about his commitment to Ms. Quarters when given the chance to reconnect with "No Kiddin' Around Buffy." Johnny gets a shock when he discovers what those long-ago "no kiddin' around" days in L.A. might cost him! We spend a lot of time in Jennifer's apartment, Herb has been wardrobe shopping and somebody's trying to sound like Venus on these Shout! Factory disks (t'ain't pretty, fellow babies!). Confused? You're not alone! We'll try to get it all sorted out...but we can't do it in one episode!! Put the Champagne on ice, give Raoul the night off and push 'play'...it's time to start Season TWO.  Crab puff?

We've come to the end of the Season One here at the WKRP-Cast and Sunday mornings will never be the same. This time around we meet the uniquely incomparable former wrestler turned pastor, the Reverend "Little Ed" Pembrooke. Little Ed's Sunday Morning program, brought to you by his "Church of the Mighty Struggle," delivers salvation, victory over sin, the occasional demon through a soda machine and an endless supply of "religious artifacts."  Step right up and get your very own "John the Baptist Shower Curtain" or "The World is Coming to an End" Lawn Furniture. It's all absolutely FREE when you make a 'small donation' to the good works of Little Ed's Church.  Some of the more 'proper' religious leaders in Cincinnati have noticed Little Ed's electronic tent revival hucksterism. They've descended on WKRP wanting to put a stop to it. Andy's pinned to the wall...Art's making a getaway on an Exercycle and Johnny's worried the good Reverend has set aside an extra heapin' helpin' of healin' just for him. Pull out your checkbooks, fellow babies...er, I mean Brethren...it's time push 'play' and feel the POWER!

It's all absolutely FREE when you make a 'small donation' to the good works of Little Ed's Church.  Some of the more 'proper' religious leaders in Cincinnati have noticed Little Ed's electronic tent revival hucksterism. They've descended on WKRP wanting to put a stop to it. Andy's pinned to the wall...Art's making a getaway on an Exercycle and Johnny's worried the good Reverend has set aside an extra heapin' helpin' of healin' just for him. Pull out your checkbooks, fellow babies...er, I mean Brethren...it's time push 'play' and feel the POWER!

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

You know how some guys are funny when they're mad?? Hugh Wilson must be one of those guys. CBS was all over him during the first season of WKRP to write more "visual gags." Over on ABC, "Laverne & Shirley" was a hit doing a lot of slapstick. Hugh resisted...he fought it...he thought it was lowbrow. He said WKRP is smarter than that!! The Mighty KRP talks about the Archduke Ferdinand and being obtuse!! Hugh gave in. THIS is the result!! Turns out, Hugh's pretty darn funny when he writes visual gags. "Fish Story" is LOADED with the most over-the-top visuals you could imagine...and they ALL...well, okay...and MOST of them work!! This is where they tucked in that incredible B-story about Johnny getting clearer headed with each shot of whiskey!! It's hilarious!! So if you're ready, grab a hat...I don't know, ask Venus...and load up the gang for one heck of a joyride. Officer Plyler would like to see your license and registration, then he advises you to hit "play" while  having another shot of Jack Daniels.

So just what do we really know about the lovely Ms. Jennifer Marlowe? We don't know where she's from, we've never seen where she lives...we don't even how she gets her peanut butter!  In this episode, we take an historic first look in Jennie-poo's apartment. We also meet an old friend from her hometown of "Rock Throw" West Virginia.  This old friend, T.J. Watson, claims Jennifer promised to marry him. Jennifer doesn't remember any such thing, but rather than argue she decides to tell T.J. she's already married. Enter our hero, Johnny Fever. The good Doctor takes the fall for Jennifer...literally. This outing is madcap, loaded with laughs and...somewhat sunken, as Johnny's about top learn. Episode Writer and Season One Story Editor Tom Chehak is back with more great stories from the set. This one is a hoot from the holler! Stick some hotdogs in the hotdogger, grab what's left outta Herb's six of beers and hit 'play'...do I hear "Fly Me to the Moon"? Wait a minute, does T.J. have a guitar? What's happening, here?!!?

Les is snapping some pix for the paper. Venus is NOT amused! Threats of violence against...Les? It's a pretty heavy scene, man...and we discover Venus might have a few skeletons in his well stocked closet. Andy tries to get to the bottom of it. Art REALLY tries to get to the bottom of it. Ultimately, we wind up with one of the most intense, thought provoking and dramatic half hours of sitcom television you're ever likely to lay eyes on. BIG BONUS: episode Writer Tom Chehak joins us with insight and stories from the set. This script was an important one for Tom...and it turned out to be historic for CBS. It also caused a LOT of problems! Politics, powerplays, intense drama...and that's all the stuff happening backstage! Strap in, fellow babies...we're going for a ride with a gentleman named Gordon Sims. Gordon has seen some stuff and he needs to share. We hope you can handle it. Push 'play' and hang on.

One of the biggest funeral home chains in the country has its sights set on the Queen City and they seem to want to deliver big bags of money to the Flimm Building.  Herb "did the deal" but...hold on a minute, there was very little deal to be done. Wasn't that WAY too easy? Andy wants to know what's going on here!! Turns out, the Dead Guy in the Lobby wants a jingle in addition to all of those sweet, sweet spots. Can the gang can pull together a jingle??! This just might work. Venus was in a band, Bailey can actually sing and Jennifer is making smoke come out of Herb's ears. Yeah, yeah...one day we're all gonna buy it, but until that day comes, you need to hit "play" and enjoy the young and swingin' sounds of the Mighty KRP Singers!! Randall is 'ready to cook'!

Randall Ferryman is coming to town and he plans to bury us ALL! Herb has hit the sales guy jackpot. One of the biggest funeral home chains in the country has its sights set on the Queen City and they seem to want to deliver big bags of money to the Flimm Building.  Herb "did the deal" but...hold on a minute, there was very little deal to be done. Wasn't that WAY too easy? Andy wants to know what's going on here!! Turns out, the Dead Guy in the Lobby wants a jingle in addition to all of those sweet, sweet spots. Can the gang can pull together a jingle??! This just might work. Venus was in a band, Bailey can actually sing and Jennifer is making smoke come out of Herb's ears. Yeah, yeah...one day we're all gonna buy it, but until that day comes, you need to hit "play" and enjoy the young and swingin' sounds of the Mighty KRP Singers!! Randall is 'ready to cook'!

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

WELCOME BACK!
A young mother is alone in Cincinnati. Her only friend in the world is the Doctor! She says she hears him on his show every morning and she just KNOWS she can trust him with her newborn. When she leaves the baby at the station, the little sweetie melts everyone's heart...well, everyone except Herb. She's a little standoffish when it comes to Herb. The baby has standards! Johnny gets a taste of fatherhood (and, possibly, the yellow stuff).  Check it out! A young man named Danny Openden is playing the baby. We found Danny! And, even cooler, we found Danny's mom, Lori Openden! Lori has spent her life in television casting and she just happened to have a newborn when this storyline came around. Lori gave us some GREAT behind the scenes details about Danny's time on WKRP.  Grab a diaper, fellow babies, it's time for a change!! Take a big bite of the green stuff, hum a little Brahm's Lullaby and hit "play" before the people from Children and Family Services get here!!

Johnny's been gone for about two weeks and the gang is on EDGE! It doesn't help matters that sleazy record company promo man Murray Gressler is sniffing around. Murray will do just about anything to get his records played. Andy should have known better than to hire the deejay Murray recommended, but he needed to get the time slot filled! Doug Winner, the new morning man, turns out to be a smiling but shifty jerk who's willing to throw Johnny under the bus to protect his precious Coke supply (and we don't mean the cola kind).  The WKRP-Cast is nothing but "Miami Vice" and Odor Eaters this week!

Something strange is happening around the ol' KRP Ranch. It's 14 degrees but Johnny is playing Beach Boys like it's the Fourth of July!

The competitor to the station that fired him over the whole "Booger" thing has come calling with a GREAT offer! Will Johnny head for huge bucks, sunny skies and sweet revenge? Can the gang keep Johnny in Cincinnati?? It's a plot laced with high stakes, deceit and Jennifer's...um...charms! It's a story so big it might not get told in one WEEK!! Knock back another strong one with Art and pull up a chair. We've got some war stories to tell and they aren't going to get told with you sitting at home!

ENJOY THIS ENCORE PRESENTATION!!]

WELCOME BACK!
Hang on, fellow babies, we're SUPERSIZED!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! On this episode of the "WKRP-Cast", we tackle one of life's greatest mysteries: are there actually two endings to this episode? And, if there are, WHY???  Johnny blew it when he missed the decimal point on Andy's contest memo. The "big prize" was fifty bucks. Johnny read it as FIVE THOUSAND!! No sweat, we'll just make the contest impossible to win! KRP listeners are obviously musical savants. EVERYBODY is figuring out the impossible puzzle. When it comes time to award the cash, will Johnny Save the Day? Or, will Johnny Have to Pay? He actually winds up doing BOTH!! This is the weirdest, wildest, strangest little detour you'll take in WKRP-land, which is why we invited a very special detour guide: episode writer CASEY PIOTROWSKI joins us with comments and insight!! The WKRP-Cast is on the air...grab your brains, fellow babies and  strap in. The Bozo-puter might overheat before we're done with this one. You ARE seeing double!! Hit 'play' to find out why!!

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...

WELCOME BACK!
Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! It's time for another episode of the "WKRP-Cast"...and we've been retooled! Well, we haven't, but the SHOW is supposed to have undergone a major overhaul. Did it? Not so much, thanks to the curmudgeonly behavior of our hero, Mr. Hugh Wilson. This is, oddly for first season, a clip show...with about 14 minutes of new stuff, PLUS an all new "Mama Carlson." We get into what it was like to watch TV back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, the mystery of the cold open, the insanity of network suits and the return of one of the funniest shows on TV...now comfortably seated right behind mega-hit "M*A*S*H"!! What could go wrong...right?? Well, it IS WKRP. Don't count on anything good to last for too long. The WKRP-Cast is on the air...grab your brains, fellow babies, Mama's here and she doesn't look happy. Is your resume up-to-date? Time to hit 'play' and hope she's in a good mood !!

YOU KNOW YOU MAKE US WANNA...
No shouts in the show, but we did want to take a minute to say a BIG 'Thank You' to Michael Hernandez, the Accountant of Rock. Mike is doing some amazing forensic research regarding the scheduling of WKRP throughout its original run on network. He is doing the digital equivalent of haunting newspaper graveyards and dusty stacks in library attics. His research is yielding some fascinating stuff and we are so glad he is willing to share the highlights with us. We hope to be hitting Mike up in the future regarding show ratings and scheduling. It's all part of what made and influenced the creation of WKRP so we love getting into it!

After last week's AMAZING "Turkeys Away" episode, the fine folks at MTM...or CBS...or somebody said this should be the follow-up to one of the greatest half hours in television. This is very bad all on its own...but when you put it up against "Turkeys" it becomes monumentally bad in comparison. If you should happen to like this episode, we hope you have a sense of humor. If you REALLY like this episode...you'd probably better not listen. The other 99.897% of you are going to have a blast. Things get comedically bloody...claws come out...hair color is questioned...you'll have fun in spite of the horrific episode, we promise!!

Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! Welcome back to another episode of the "WKRP-Cast." Bailey is stepping up to the plate as a producer. Her idea, "Cincinnati Beat" is tapped by Andy to be the next big Public Service program on WKRP. The only problem...a show like this requires guests, and good ones. Cue the nutballs! Cincinnati's leading eccentrics have gathered in the WKRP lobby! Bailey's call for participants nets some of the most deliciously deraigned attendees imaginable. Mrs. Woodruff's Hatchback Supreme has done some interstellar commuting, Mr. Eisenhower is about to run you down and Dr. Monroe has a cure for us all!! The WKRP-Cast is on the air! Grab your brains, fellow babies, this is just what the Dr. ordered!!

Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! Welcome back to another episode of the "WKRP-Cast." Bailey is stepping up to the plate as a producer. Her idea, "Cincinnati Beat" is tapped by Andy to be the next big Public Service program on WKRP. The only problem...a show like this requires guests, and good ones. Cue the nutballs! Cincinnati's leading eccentrics have gathered in the WKRP lobby! Bailey's call for participants nets some of the most deliciously deraigned attendees imaginable. Mrs. Woodruff's Hatchback Supreme has done some interstellar commuting, Mr. Eisenhower is about to run you down and Dr. Monroe has a cure for us all!! The WKRP-Cast is on the air! Grab your brains, fellow babies, this is just what the Dr. ordered!!

You Know You Make Us Wanna Shout...
OH YEAH!! After the ep, we'll be doing some shout-outs to friends and listeners. You can completely skip it if you want...you won't miss any episode goodies...but, then again, you never know if we're going to be talking about you!!

[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! Welcome back to another session of the "WKRP-Cast."  We're breaking down a new episode!! This week, it's "Les on a Ledge". After a misunderstanding at "the Stadium" Les is barred from post-game locker-room interviews. A player believes Les is homosexual. The news is so distressing it pushes Les onto the ledge of the Flimm building...or, at least SOME building (the Flimm building doesn't have ledges...but we can't let something like that get in the way of a good script!) Of course there's going to be a "Herb Tarlek Fashion Alert".  We meet America's first prime-time pothead (hint: you already know him). We have unidentified firemen, Shakespearean monologues and a fall from either the ninth or fourteenth floor of the Flimm building. This one is truly crazy, fellow babies!!

Enjoy this encore presentation. 

Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! Welcome back fellow babies to another episode of the "WKRP-Cast."  We've watched the Pilot (Part ONE) of "WKRP in Cincinnati." We've picked it apart to the extreme and we're ready to talk about it!!  We meet, for the first time ever, the staff and ownership of Cincinnati radio station WKRP. The "Big Guy" (Art Carlson, station...owner?) has hired hotshot new program director Andy Travis, most recently from Santa Fe. Andy is our way in as we meet the wacky staff of the station. We are introduced to the iconic characters that make up the WKRP crew: Arthur, Herb, Les, Jennifer, Bailey, Venus and over-the-hill (?) morning man Dr. Johnny Fever.

Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! Welcome back fellow babies to another episode of the "WKRP-Cast."  We've watched the Pilot (Part ONE) of "WKRP in Cincinnati." We've picked it apart to the extreme and we're ready to talk about it!!  We meet, for the first time ever, the staff and ownership of Cincinnati radio station WKRP. The "Big Guy" (Art Carlson, station...owner?) has hired hotshot new program director Andy Travis, most recently from Santa Fe. Andy is our way in as we meet the wacky staff of the station. We are introduced to the iconic characters that make up the WKRP crew: Arthur, Herb, Les, Jennifer, Bailey, Venus and over-the-hill (?) morning man Dr. Johnny Fever. Learn the real story behind why Les is always bandaged as part of our first regular feature: "The Les Nessman Bandage Report." We expose...or, actually, cover-up...'Nipplegate.'

PLEASE ENJOY THIS ENCORE PRESENTATION!
Hi!! Our names are Allen and Donna Stare! We are a married couple from the Midwest who have been fans of the television show "WKRP in Cincinnati" since it originally aired. Allen started a career in radio and advertising at age 15 and much of his interest was inspired by WKRP. While Allen comes at the show more from the radio side of things, Donna is a fan of the humanity and the characters that populate the world of WKRP. We are both lovers of trivia, music and history so we decided to pull all of these interests together and start a re-watch podcast.

We'll be watching a new episode each week, in broadcast order, with trivia, background insights and opinions. This week, we're setting the table with some general background on the creation of the show, we meet the man whose "baby" it truly was: Mr. Hugh Wilson, we talk about all the problems with the music over the years (it's an epic tale!!) AND we meet the eight regular players who will be a part of WKRP for four years. We felt like it was important to cover these big topics now, so we can hit the ground running with the Pilot-Part1. We hope you join us! Watch along if you can, but even if you don't get a chance to watch the show, each episode of the podcast is full of laughs and a lot of interesting stuff. Hop in the Wayback Machine to the late 1970s. Fellow babies, the WKRP-Cast is on the air...grab your brains and don't miss it!! (This is gonna be a blast!!)

'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release.

The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes.

WELCOME BACK!
Hey, Fellow Babies! Prepare yourselves for something COMPLETELY different! We're on a holiday break but we didn't want to leave you hanging for a full two weeks. So, we decided to do a little something "extra"...which is why we're calling this a "WKRP-Cast Extra"!! Huge thanks to Casey Piotrowski, writer of "Contest Nobody Could Win" for sharing the outline with us. Casey said they were handed out during a new writer's meeting in the fall of 1978. The "Turkeys Away" outline served as an example..."do it like this." Turns out, the 'outline' is actually a narrative description of the episode, complete with character lines and everything! When we first read through it, we thought, "this is kinda cool...you can sorta see the episode in there...". We decided a good way to share it with you would be to read it...word-for-word, start to finish. A lot easier to digest than a downloadable PDF, but if you want a downloadable PDF of the script in case you want to follow along, here's that, too:

This is it, Fellow Babies. Welcome to the FINAL network first-run airing of WKRP. This episode, "The Impossible Dream" had been shelved by the network in the spring of 1982. Now, with a breakout hit on their hands, the network decided to play this never-before-seen episode well into the fall season...the season AFTER WKRP had been cancelled.

It's Les's birthday. The passing of another year has spurred the News Beacon of the Ohio Valley to strive for more in his career. That, and his mother is in town. Les suddenly starts pulling awards off the wall and announces he's headed to New York to take Dan Rather's news-chair.

Jennifer reacts to the birthday and mother-visit news with the same answer: Party Time! She plans a surprise birthday party for Les. For some reason, the guest of honor shows up way early. He's there before any of the other guests! He arrives without his mother and tells Jennifer he hates it for anyone to know about his birthday.

Ms. Marlowe could not be having a worse day. Triple vodkas all around!!

At the party, Les debuts his on-camera demo tape. It's beyond bad. Les realizes he's made a fool of himself and runs out.

Will Les go to New York? Will we meet Les's mother? Will we shudder just a little bit at the overwhelming cringiness of the final three minutes? Spoilers!! The answers would be: no, yes and yes.

Let's join Lester in tilting at some windmills during this FINAL WKRP episode!! Moo-goo, anyone??

This roll of film had fifty pictures of a black guy in a tux holding a bottle of shampoo...and ONE picture of a dorky white guy at a bar-b-que grill. Guess which one the printer chose?  Would your answer change if you knew the photographer was Herb Tarlek?

In a career marked by colossal screw-ups, this is one colossal screw-up. Herb's new client "Soul Suds" went the full multi-media promo route. They're utilizing point of purchase display stand-ups featuring WKRP's own Venus Flytrap. Venus is right there at the store shelf promoting the same shampoo he's pitching on the radio. He's in a tux, his hair is looking awesome and he's holding the product. It's coordinated marketing synergy on an unprecedented level! And HERB is running the show!! What could go wrong?

Oh, just the pesky printer mentioned above. Herb told them they should figure anything he said was wrong. They listened to him on this one...the fools. Now Herb is cooking up burgers in convenience and grocery stores all over town while claiming to be a laid-back Venus Flytrap. We can't even see what his hair looks like because he's wearing a HAT!!

This might be all she wrote for Herb. Unless a gorgeous blonde temptress can be found to inspire the client to forgive poor Mr. Tarlek. If only we knew a gorgeous blonde temptress...Jennifer, surprisingly, steps up.

It's a tale of blind...or possibly blonde...ambition, dueling receptionists, deceptive salesmen and the most perceptive CEO Jennifer has ever met. This time beauty is in the ear of the beholder, and a good thing for Herb.

Strap in, fellow babies. It's time to push 'play' and lather up. We're gonna take a ride on the "Soul Suds" train with "To Err is Human" our next to last episode of THE SERIES.

Finally! All the hard work for the KRP-Crew seems to be paying off! Andy got the new Book in this morning and there's some GOOD news!! The Mighty 'KRP has risen to a quite respectable SIXTH in the Cincinatti Market!!

Andy calls the gang together for the big reveal. Herb thinks this is it for his time on the streets...the phone will be ringing off the hook, right??

In the lobby, a gentleman with a deep and resonating voice has introduced himself to Jennifer as the NEW News Director. Ummm...huh?

Mrs. Carlson has reached out to Fargo, N.D. in search of...what? A replacement for Les? No, when Andy confronts her, she says Les still has a job. Turns out, Mr. Travis might be the one looking for work. Mama intends to turn the whole rockin' shootin' match into a respectable "All News" station.

Will Mama get her way? Will Andy be heading out "town to town...up and down the dial"? Surely not! Then again, WKRP the TV show hasn't been doing nearly as well as WKRP the radio station when it comes to ratings. This might be the last show of the series, let alone the last show of the season.

And, really, it's not even the last show of the season. Big programming news, fellow babies! Next week we veer WAY off the known path as we check out a first-run WKRP episode that didn't air until AUGUST!!

It's coming to an end...but there are still some surprises left in store for you, Fellow Babies! Grab a swig from Johnny's Jug and hit "Play"...Hirsch will get the door.

We're 87 episodes into the series and Mr. Blake Hunter has decided we really need to clarify a few things that came before...like stuff that happened during the PILOT!

It's time to corral all those things we've heard about Venus over the last four years and explain how it could all happen to one man. We know him as military deserter...accomplished teacher...hottest nighttime deejay in NOLA...how was he able to pull it all off and he's not 63 years old??

We discover a few things in Venus' past have been...fudged. Okay, so maybe Mr. Travis outright lied about a couple of things, but all in the name of good radio, right??

Mama Carlson doesn't think so. She's dropped by the station one evening to meet with Arthur. He's late. She is walking through the station as Andy and Venus are involved in some serious horseplay.

Mama winds up getting tackled in the midst of all the goofing around. In exchange for her forgiveness, she forces Andy and Venus to tell us the TRUE story of Mr. Venus Flytrap and his "biggest" audience in The Big Easy.

Sit back, Fellow Babies...the episode was only 25 minutes, but they jammed so MUCH into it!! We've got a Max question, a comment from Tim Reid and a TON of new info about this old episode. We go for nearly an hour and a half...but don't worry, it'll flytrap right by!! Push 'play' and jump in the Time Machine!! It's about to get all boogity up in here.

Les is a consummate newsman...when the news is farm related. As Johnny says, Les's stories have that unmistakable 'barnyard aroma.'

Andy has an assignment for the News Beacon of the Ohio Valley. Mrs. Carlson is a big supporter of a local children's hospital. The Hospital is in dire need of community support. Andy hands Les the info and tells him to go down there and do a story on it. Now.

Les, in an inspired bit of delegation, hands the story to Bailey. Truth be told (which doesn't happen a lot in this episode) Les would much rather be working on saving the endangered Rutabaga (yeah, you'll have to talk to Lester about that one).

Bailey goes to the Hospital. After being battered around a bit by the administrator, she's finally given a tour. Upon her return to the station, Bailey writes a beautiful, heart-string tugging story about her experience. Too bad it's all a lie.

Les doesn't know it's a lie, so he's more than happy to read Bailey's story on the air...after a threat from Andy.

Suddenly people are afraid of losing their jobs, the station is in fear of losing its license...this is AWFUL!!

Three minutes later, everything's fine. To find out exactly HOW everything could turn out so well...you're going to have to watch! Or, better yet, why don't you LISTEN!? We've got all the answers this week...even if very few of them are true.

Oh, and as a bonus, we've got a five minute-plus report on the Whoopee Cushion! And we're not the least bit sorry about it!! (You can thank us later).  

Push 'play' fellow babies...somebody will be with you shortly to tell you fibs and fallacies...but you're gonna love it!!

There's a Fire in the Flimm Building!! Alliteration loving Les is happy to hear it's on the FIFTH floor! The gang was just leaving for the day as the conflagration broke out.

Herb and Jennifer made it on the elevator. They walked right past Johnny who was coming in for work...ummm...yeah, you'll need to ask Johnny about this one.

Herb and Jennie-poo wind up trapped between the 8th and 9th floors...the rest of the gang is stuck on 14.

Johnny decides, since he's got 12 hours to kill, he might as well plunge into the jaws of death...or something like that. He rides a firehose down into the elevator shaft in order to save Jennifer, Herb and the stranded car.

If this is sounding less like an episode of WKRP and more like an Irwin Allen disaster film...you'd be right! It's one of the most ambitious episodes of the series, and the last for Director Will Mackenzie. Get your popcorn, fellow babies, and push "play"...we're about to avert downtown Cincinnati from a major disaster!!

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog" episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

Venus snuck a girl past the night guard. Okay, so this is not unusual for Venus. What's different this time? The girl is using Venus as cover so she can engineer a robbery at a Wholesale Jeweler elsewhere in the Flimm Building.

Sounds like "Law and Order: WKRP", right? It kind of is! The fuzz shows up in the bullpen and Venus is hauled downtown in cuffs.  Johnny, in disguise, visits the jailbird. His fake beard had to sign the visitor's log separately.

We spend a lot of time in a courtroom and Venus might GO TO PRISON!! The whole gang is enlisted to act as character witnesses. Max Wright returns as fearless Carlson Enterprises attorney Frank Bartman. 

It looks bad for Venus. He might be in real trouble. In the end, a whole lot of prayer and a little bit of luck saves the day. Venus is returned to the station and you can hear about the whole thing by pushing "Play."

Big things happening all over the place this week, Fellow Babies! Herb got a new client. Believe it or not, a sponsor for Les's newscasts. It's a computer dating service called "I'll Take Romance." They're just across the river into Kentucky.

Fill out their questionnaire and be matched to the guy or gal of your dreams...scientifically.

This ALSO happens to be the same week as the Cincinnati Broadcaster's Dinner and Dance. It's a pretty swank affair...$35 a person and there'll be a trio for dancing. It just so happens Les needs a date AND Herb signed him up with the dating service AND Les got matched to a young lady who likes hogs and hog breeding AND she's available Friday night! Everything's coming up Nessman!!

Les's 'Perfect Match' arrives!! Her name is Lorraine and she's been sent by "I'll Take Romance." The lovely Lorraine is being played by the even lovelier Livia Genise. We talk to Livia!! She shares her memories of WKRP and her time in Hollywood in the 1980s. 

Ooops! The looker is a hooker! "I'll Take Romance" is a front for prostitution. Les has no idea. He didn't sign up for, or pay for, his date. He thinks it's a great match and he's falling hard!

Of course, Jennifer gets it all worked out!

Jennifer says it at lunch with Herb (yeah, right there should tell you how crazy this one is!!): "Change is exciting, don't you think?"

Maybe when it's happening to someone else, but the changes happening around the station are leaving everyone reeling. Herb is looking GOOD in a conservative grey suit. He's also spouting the supply-side doctrine of the new Reagan Administration. Who is this fellow in the nice-looking suit, and what have you done with our Herb??!!

But Herb's threads are nothing compared to the outfit Venus assembles. Venus is being interviewed for "Black Life Magazine" about being a black deejay. Venus is worried he's been hanging out with all these white folks for so long, he's not as black as he should be! He blacks things WAY up with the "Root Suit by Monsanto" (ask Johnny).

Tom Dreesen shows up playing the Black Life reporter (!) and WE TALK TO HIM!! Tom was kind enough to talk to us about his early days with Tim Reid, his time on WKRP and a whole host of other topics.

We're SUPERSIZED! We almost touched the 90-minute mark on this one. If you normally listen to us on the way to work, this week we'll get you there and BACK!! So, depending on how you look at it...enjoy!...or, sorry for being so long-winded! With two great storylines AND Tom Dreesen, there was no way this one wasn't going to run long!

Don't miss this fantastic episode, fellow babies! If change is for the good, this is about as good as it gets. Push 'play' for all the details...and your new Slim Whitman collection should be arriving in four to six weeks.

Amphetamines were outlawed in 1970. It was a Tricky Dick move. He made amphetamines a very-illegal Schedule Two drug. No more bottles of "mother's little helper" available over the counter.

By the late 1970s, some intrepid manufacturers of 'diet pills' were concocting concentrated formulations of caffeine, ephedrine and sometimes taurine. It was an attempt to legally create the amphetamine buzz that was so prized by speed-freaks in the '60s.

Hundreds of milligrams of caffeine in a concentrated form will get you buzzing....it might even  help you lose weight. It will ALSO keep you awake for finals. Hold on a minute...why are middle-aged ladies wanting to lose weight also taking H.S. finals?

They aren't. The whole "trucker speed" craze of the '80s was primarily targeted to teens. You could buy all you wanted! They weren't 'real' amphetamines...so what was the harm?

You may be wondering what this has to do with the Mighty 'KRP. Turns out Herb found a new advertiser. He was doing his job! He made a sale! Unfortunately, Herb's new buddy, Dave, is running a "weight loss clinic." He's really slinging legal, but very dangerous, 'pep' pills. They'll help you lose weight. They'll also help you pass out in gym class.

Not a lot of laughs in this one, but it's a great message and well presented by the gang. Throw back a couple of Black Beauties and "FocusIn", fellow babies...it's time for "Pills."

Amphetamines were outlawed in 1970. It was a Tricky Dick move. He made amphetamines a very-illegal Schedule Two drug. No more bottles of "mother's little helper" available over the counter.

By the late 1970s, some intrepid manufacturers of 'diet pills' were concocting concentrated formulations of caffeine, ephedrine and sometimes taurine. It was an attempt to legally create the amphetamine buzz that was so prized by speed-freaks in the '60s.

Hundreds of milligrams of caffeine in a concentrated form will get you buzzing....it might even  help you lose weight. It will ALSO keep you awake for finals. Hold on a minute...why are middle-aged ladies wanting to lose weight also taking H.S. finals?

They aren't. The whole "trucker speed" craze of the '80s was primarily targeted to teens. You could buy all you wanted! They weren't 'real' amphetamines...so what was the harm?

You may be wondering what this has to do with the Mighty 'KRP. Turns out Herb found a new advertiser. He was doing his job! He made a sale! Unfortunately, Herb's new buddy, Dave, is running a "weight loss clinic." He's really slinging legal, but very dangerous, 'pep' pills. They'll help you lose weight. They'll also help you pass out in gym class.

Not a lot of laughs in this one, but it's a great message and well presented by the gang. Throw back a couple of Black Beauties and "FocusIn", fellow babies...it's time for "Pills."

[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog" episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

Giant Lizzard ravages East Coast!! Les is at it again...a classic Nessman mess up.

Once Les gets things sorted out with giant reptiles and winter storms, he tells us about a fire at the Vine Street Mission. Turns out, Dr. Fever is a big supporter of the Mission. He was on sight for a live report right after the fire...kinda.

The kitchen at the Mission needs a new roof...to the tune of $40,000! For Johnny, and most mere mortals, this is a big pile of cash. For Ms. Jennifer Marlowe, this amount represents the equivalent of loose change in her friend's couch cushions.

She invites them over for a night of appetizers, martinis and money. She also invites "the gang." She should have specified WHICH gang. Johnny brings a few friends from the mission. They meet Jennifer's friends and the party really heats up!

You can't move the mission! Not even a foot! Especially not up into Price Hill...there's no bums up there! Although the rich folks want to help, they don't understand the intricacies of feeding the perpetually drunk. Johnny and his friends work to set them straight. Eventually, connections are made via exotic dancing and David Niven...or something like that.

Grab a big, steaming bowl of Chicken Gumbo and join us for a night of Zombies, cheese puffs and big donations from some of Cincinnati's finest philanthropists. It's gonna be a hoot!

It's College Class Reunion Time and Moose...er, Art...is getting ready to head out for the big weekend. He's gotten his Letterman Sweater cleaned and he's making reservations at the "Eat 'n Sleep."

Meanwhile, Venus is attempting to 'woo' a young lady from a local broadcast school. She seems a bit smarter than Mr. Flytrap's usual conquests. She's also not thrilled about the lack of privacy in the Venus Lovenest...aka The Control Booth.

With Art out of town, Venus sees a chance to regale his young lady friend with crab puffs and gherkins galore.

When Art and Carmen get to the "Eat 'n Sleep", not much has changed in 25 years. They meet up with Hank "The Hunk" and his flaky wife Fluffy! The "Eat 'n Sleep" was the scene of Art and Carmen's first date. It's a tale Art loves to tell again and again.

Hank reveals a secret Carmen has kept from Art for 25 years. He can't be TOO mad at her...especially when she explains. The night ends with Art and Carmen dancing to a Shout! Factory replacement song...but we'll let you hear the real thing.

Two, four, six, eight...who do we appreciate?? Omegas, Omegas, OMEGAS!! Push 'play' to get this little pep rally underway. Got your beanie??

Andy's good buddy, Norris Breeze, is in Cincinnati! What brings ol' Norris to town? That would be Mama Carlson. Norris has developed a coke habit so he needed a high paying job. He's now a "radio consultant" tasked with making every radio station sound the same from coast to coast.

Norris has already been in town a couple of days, monitoring the Mighty 'KRP. Andy gulps hard and starts the wheels turning. How can he discredit "the Radio Doctor" from New York? Oh, Andy's not as 'aw-shucks' as you might think. He has a trick or two up his sleeve.

He can't make them competent...but could he make them different? Andy hatches a plan. It involves the whole staff, but you might not recognize them once Andy's done.

As Jennifer gets coffee for "Mr. Breezy" some guy in a good-looking suit is claiming to be Herb. This is the Flimm Building, right? Norris takes copious notes, while watching out for Venus and his knife. He can't wait to report it all back to Mama.

When he does, Andy just sits quietly with a little grin on his face. Being from Santa Fe, this might not be Mr. Travis' first rodeo. Norris proceeds to describe a station Mama's never seen. Her son is...overworked? No, this is not the WKRP Mama knows. She realizes with a quiet grin how well she's been played.

As Hirsch ushers Andy out, he's asking for even MORE money. Mama realizes this Mr. Travis is not one to be trifled with. Get in on the whole madcap experience!! Push "Play" now...Jennifer will have some coffee to you shortly. We think.

Remember way back at the start of Season Four when the Phone Cops blew up the transmitter?? (Or, something like that...gotta stop listening to Johnny). Anyway, insurance said they'd replace the transmitter...at its current value. Its old, and usually broken, current value. Andy decides a Top Ten operation like WKRP should be heard on something nicer than Harris' best AM Transmitter from 1968.

He decides the best way to get to the checkbook is around Art. Mama Carlson can authorize additional funds. Andy decides to meet with her...at a nice restaurant. Then again at the opera. He's meeting with her in the trendiest places all over town.

Les, intrepid newsman that he is, blows the whistle on the whole sordid seeming-affair. Were Andy and Mrs. C. really an "item"? Are you INSANE??

When confronted with her possible indiscretions, Mama can only say it's what you 'do' with Employees. Besides, Andrew has nice hair.

Will Andy get his new transmitter? Will Mama make a new life for herself in Los Angeles? Will Art get a chance to visit the Arboretum? These questions and more will be answered in this week's installment: "Love, Exciting and New"!!

Jennifer is out on the town enjoying a posh meal at an upscale and trendy Cincinnati hotspot. Her companion is...elderly. Let's not kid ourselves...he's old! This is the Colonel. He seems to have held a special spot in Jennifer's life for a while now.

Actually, if Steve Marshall and Hugh Wilson had gotten their way, he'd have been MARRIED to Jennifer right now. Dinner doesn't go well. The Colonel expires minutes before paying the whopper of a check.

Is Jennifer a conniving gold digger? Or just a young lady in love with an older gentleman? Either way, she's Executrix of the Industrialist's estate. Meeting the family is a treat. Seeing the old man on video in the lawyer's office...even MORE of a treat!!

We've got guest stars galore, a new lobby and a seminar from Andy on how NOT to comfort your friends. Before you push 'play' do you promise to be of sound mind?? Ah, who cares...

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog" episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

Hmm...turns out saying "booger" on the air is NOT grounds for firing someone. Johnny had a year left on his contract and somebody decided to sue for it. Out of the blue, a settlement... minus his attorney's quite reasonable 51%...has shown up in Johnny's mailbox.  Even with everybody's mitts on his money, Johnny is still walking away with a lump sum of $24,000.

Art voices all of our concerns:  "Good golly...Fever with money?"

Johnny goes on a bender, meets some friends and buys some clothes. He also made some investments...like see-through soap! A long Harmonica!! (He might need some help with his choices...)

Venus and the Gang convince the Good Dr. he should be investing what's left. He decides to plunk a bunch down on a condo at "Gone With the Wind Estates." It's a client of Herb's...so you know it's got to be good!

The Estate is...nice...in a 'plantation' sort of way. Johnny hates it! No amount of cutesy street names can make up for his condo-hatred.

Will Johnny get out of his purchase? Will Les get to see the pool? Will Jennifer convince Andy a Grandfather Clock is the perfect lobby accessory?

Find out this week on the WKRP-Cast!! Push 'play'...and Go with the Wind!!

Herb's in the Hospital being checked for potential ticker troubles. Whatever the doctor might tell him can't be as bad as the little item he finds in today's paper. Carlson confirms it! WKRP is interviewing sales people! It sounds long term!

Back at the station, the cheap cologne brigade has assembled on Jennifer's doorstep. Andy, for some reason, is conducting the interviews in Art's office.

Instead of causing Herb REAL ticker troubles, Jennifer says she'd like to give this Account Executive thing a go...at least for a couple of weeks.

She and Art...who's filling in for Herb...head to the Coliseum and a meeting with Pat Perillo. Pat, it turns out, is a shady concert promoter and 'phone only' associate of Mr. Herbert R. Tarlek.  The three meet in a questionable hallway somewhere in the Coliseum. Art is mistaken for Herb and Jennifer convinces Art to go with it. THEN, it turns out, Pat wants to meet Art.

But, uh, Art is Herb.

So, Who's going to be Art?

Hang on, Fellow Babies!! This one gets WEIRD!! It's the second part of our rollercoaster ride through Guntzelman World and the laughs are HUGE!!  Push 'play', then keep your hands and arms inside the ride at all times...

Herb is going on vacation...with his insurance papers. It's how ol' "Work Hard/Play Hard" Herbie rolls. Or maybe not. Jennifer starts to worry, Les starts to dial hospitals.

He starts with the cheapest first, so it doesn't take long. One call is enough and Huggable Herbie has been located. Les decides to visit Herb before jetting off to Omaha and Copper Cob Accolades.

Herb decides to visit a Porn Theater. Hang on...there is a rationale, but this gets weird. Herb's decided, in order to live life to the fullest, you've gotta get a front row seat at a 3D Porn House. In a related story, Cincinnati Vice is cracking down on purveyors of porn and pork-like products...er, hold it...wrong cart.

Les, Herb and the whole gang (minus Jennifer...for some reason) wind up in the klink. Jailer "Mel" saves the day and the poor MTM Set People sleep for about three days after this one is done.

Ready to join the madcap hilarity waiting for you in "Guntzelman World"? Push 'play'...oh, and put on your glasses. Not you, Bailey!

Bailey takes pity on our poor beleaguered morning man. She will give him a place to stay until the de-lizarding is finished.

The rumor mill kicks into high gear immediately. Even Jennifer, Venus and Andy are whispering and snickering behind Bailey's back.

Bailey decides to 'give 'em something to talk about.' Johnny just wants it to stop. If worrying about morning fill-in guy Rex isn't enough, now Johnny has to worry about Bailey's virtue.

It's time to organize, it's time to unionize, it's time to "look for...that union label...".

WKRP has had another bit of a ratings surge. The lack of commercials following Dr. Bob's Boycott seems to have attracted listeners. The Mighty KRP is now ranked 10th among all Cincinnati Radio Stations. Art's ready to celebrate with a few raises!

While Art's looking for someplace cheap but elegant to hold a company dinner, the rest of the gang is sneaking around whispering about unions. They held a meeting over at WPIG...at least that's what Johnny heard. 

Herb takes word to the Big Guy: the troops are looking to organize. Once Art hears this, the battle is on! The Big Guy doesn't want a union...but how will he stop it? He decides to consult a higher power...Mama.

Will the hob-nailed boot of management be lifted from the necks of KRPs toiling employees? Not if Mama C. has anything to say about it! She's ready to sell the station tomorrow if it goes Union today. Well, maybe...then again, maybe not. Would you want to cross Mama?

We need a secret handshake before you're allowed in the meeting. Oh, you've got roses? Sure, come on in! Push 'play' and look up for a message from our sponsor.

You made it back for Part 2! (a lot of people didn't in 1981). In case you need a refresher, we've got a Bomb threat!!

Andy dispatched Venus and Johnny to the Transmitter Building in the middle of Part One. The guys are blowing off the dust and trying to keep some tunes on the WKRP Air. Things are...rough. The turntable doesn't want to play and the bookie doesn't want to talk. Wing, Johnny's Chinese Bookie and Restauranteur, put Johnny on hold just minutes before the biggest hunch bet of his life was at the post. 'Fever's Dream', an 80 to 1 long shot was screaming to Johnny for a bet. If only he can make it in time.

When the horse came through...but the bookie didn't...Johnny takes his frustrations out on the phone. Three quick whacks with the big metal toolbox left Ma Bell's Magic Device in tiny shards of psychedelic spaghetti.

At the end of last week's show, Andy realizes the bomb might be out at the transmitter instead of in the Flimm Building. But how do you contact the guys when the phone is in pieces on the floor? Call their cell?? Sorry, this is 1981.

Put down that Toolbox and push "play"!! It's time for an EXPLOSIVE WKRP-Cast Conclusion!

It's a busy day around the Mighty 'KRP!! Joyce Armor, the woman who used to have Jennifer's job, has returned, The usual round of complaints about Johnny have arrived, Venus and Johnny are gambling in the Control Room and oh, yeah...there's a bomb threat.

Bomb threat? Excuse me!!

Andy says its normal for a newly popular station to get these kinds of things. Everyone would figure it's a hoax if it weren't for John Davidson having his show blown up over on Channel 73 in Dayton. Just to be safe, let's call the Bomb Squad and see if they can bring over some bomb sniffing dogs (oh, sorry...didn't mean to bring up a sore subject).

Venus and Johnny have been dispatched to the Transmitter Building, Art and Joyce have dispatched themselves to Emilio's and the rest of the gang has been dispatched to the sidewalk. Grab a Buckeye Newshawk Award on your way out.

There's no way we could possibly wrap this one up in a single half hour! We see the dreaded "To Be Continued" at the end! What are Art and Joyce up to? What's in the Tool Box? And...is that Old Spice? Don't miss the START OF SEASON FOUR...push "play" for the WKRP-Cast!

Hey there, Fellow Babies! If you're a fan of WKRP at all (and if you're listening to this podcast, we're guessing you are) you've probably seen the name "Max Tash" in the credits. It's the first name listed over the nighttime city shots when the "Went to a Bartender" closing theme begins. Picturing it in your head? 

Max was working for WKRP from before the beginning. He was an MTM "runner/gopher" on the production while casting was happening. He was production associate in the first season, Associate Producer in Seasons 2 and 3, then Coordinating Producer in the 4th Season. He was there for all 88 episodes...all the way through to "Up and Down the Dial." Only Hugh Wilson has his name in the credits of WKRP more times than Max Tash. Max was kept pretty busy with production duties, but during his tenure with WKRP, he did write a single episode. Max came up with the much-loved "Clean Up Radio Everywhere" episode featuring Dr. Bob Halyer (Hallier? Halyers?), the Jerry Falwell-like preacher who is ready to clean up Cincinnati radio.

Max has been a friend of the podcast since our first few weeks. Via e-mail, he's supplied us with some great details as we've been working our way through the episodes. Max was happy to answer e-mail questions but, although we've asked a few times, Max has never agreed to speak with us for an interview.  When we told him we just HAD to have his comments about "CURE" he said, "oh, okay."

So get ready fellow babies...Heeeeere's Max!  We talked to Max for more than an hour...and barely scratched the surface of the millions of stories he has tucked away. He is a wealth of knowledge about the show, about Hugh Wilson...about everything WKRP! We hope we can talk Max into another session with us at the end of the series. Either way, here is the incredible Max Tash, with information about "CURE", "The Famous Teddy Z", "Frank's Place", The Pussy Cat Theater (!) and a WHOLE lot more. Hey Fellow Babies!! We talked to Gary Sandy. Don't miss our exclusive interview with Andy Travis now available from the WKRP-Cast. Wherever you get your podcasts.

Dr. Bob Halyers (Halliers? Halyer?) has come to WKRP with one thing on his mind: cleaning up the airwaves!! Dr. Bob is the head of "Clean Up Radio Broadcasting" aka CURB. Yes, it's possible he was also head of something called "Clean Up Radio Everywhere" or CURE...but that was an earlier draft.

We get into the details about all things "CURB/CURE" with a VERY special Guest! WKRP Associate & Coordinating Producer MAX TASH joins us with his insight. You see, not only was Max doing his production duties on this one...he also WROTE it! Well, maybe not word-for-word...but it was his IDEA! (He'll tell you more about that in the podcast.)

Do NOT miss this very special episode of WKRP...and a very special episode of the WKRP-Cast! What are you waiting for? Those dirty words aren't going to listen to themselves!!

Oh, and as promised, here is our "Sweet Sixteen"...these are the songs in the naughty word montage (we know you got most of them...but just in case you didn't recognize one or two):

Who Are You - The Who (1978)
Money - Pink Floyd (1971)

Dr. Bob Halyers (Halliers? Halyer?) has come to WKRP with one thing on his mind: cleaning up the airwaves!! Dr. Bob is the head of "Clean Up Radio Broadcasting" aka CURB. Yes, it's possible he was also head of something called "Clean Up Radio Everywhere" or CURE...but that was an earlier draft.

We get into the details about all things "CURB/CURE" with a VERY special Guest! WKRP Associate & Coordinating Producer MAX TASH joins us with his insight. You see, not only was Max doing his production duties on this one...he also WROTE it! Well, maybe not word-for-word...but it was his IDEA! (He'll tell you more about that in the podcast.)

Do NOT miss this very special episode of WKRP...and a very special episode of the WKRP-Cast! What are you waiting for? Those dirty words aren't going to listen to themselves!!

Oh, and as promised, here is our "Sweet Sixteen"...these are the songs in the naughty word montage (we know you got most of them...but just in case you didn't recognize one or two):

Who Are You - The Who (1978)
Money - Pink Floyd (1971)
Big Shot - Billy Joel (1978)
Jet Airliner - Steve Miller Band
Hair of the Dog - Nazreth (1975)
The Hurricane - Bob Dylan (1976)
The Bitch is Back - Elton John (1974)

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog" episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

Johnny's gotten some GREAT news!! His ex...first ex, Paula...has called to tell him she's remarrying!! The remarrying isn't the good news...it's the fact Johnny will now be off the hook for alimony!! He decides to celebrate by spending all the money he just saved on a Jamaican adventure.

There's a catch. Paula, his ex, wants him to meet the new guy. Enter BUDDY! Buddy is being played by one of our favorites: Hamilton Camp is BACK!

This one was written by Howard Hesseman. Don't miss this look at some of The Doctor's history and humanity. Oh, and wear a heavy coat...Buddy's a puncher!!

You ready to catch the next Learjet? We'd go with you, but our monkey's sick. Push 'play' and all will be revealed, along with a bowl of cold soup.

Johnny is filling in for Moss Steiger, the overnight guy. The Doctor is either hung over or dealing with a bad cold. Either way, he's wandering around the station with a towel over his head completely oblivious to the ROBBERY taking place in the station!

The next day, the gang finds all the valuables are gone...the phones, Art's hobby equipment, even Les' typewriter! The only rational response is to install a burglar alarm...which The Big Guy does immediately!!

Okay, so not IMMEDIATELY...but it'll be in by Friday. Which happens to be the same day as Herb's big shindig for Cincinnati Ad Agencies! He's gone all out...banquet room in the Flimm, catering, a coat check girl with legs to her shoulders...everything you need for the perfect Friday night.

If you've been paying attention...or you know ANYTHING AT ALL about sitcoms...you know the burglar alarm and the party are going to combine for a hilarious evening. Or, possibly, an evening filled with John Donne quotes and firearms. With the crazy cats who show up at Herb's party, anything could happen!!

Have you met Hilda? IMDb seems to have missed her, but she's very sweet. The olives spell out WKRP and there's a handgun pointed at Andy's head!! If we told you any more we might spoil the big surprise in Art's Office!! Intrigued? Frightened? Push "play" and hide under the covers...Les warned us this might happen.

Imagine Mama Carlson is your mother. Now imagine having her help you plan your wedding. Carmen couldn't take it at first...all the way back in 1956. She and Arthur eloped just to get away from "the Boss." Carmen never had a "real" wedding ceremony.

Twenty-five years later, Carmen's still not happy about spending time with Mama, but she and Art are planning a real ceremony to celebrate their 25th Wedding Anniversary. They visit Mama Carlson hoping for her blessing...and a "hands off" approach to helping. Also, as the title of the episode says, they want to keep it simple. Mama says she's mellowed over the years. If this is mellow, we'd rather not see her before the mellowing took place!! 

Mama says she agrees to Art and Carmen's requests...in voice, maybe, but certainly not in spirit. Meanwhile, back at the station Herb has called a couple of strippers who he happens to have in his Rolodex.

We meet a new recurring character and he is a HOOT! This is our first interaction with "Hirsch", Mama's long-suffering butler. Talk about a love-hate relationship...with a heavy emphasis on the "hate".

So, are you Bride's side or Groom's side? Is Senator Taft here?? Uh, no...I think he's dead. Maybe I could get you a Silver Bullet Cocktail...shaken, not stirred? We don't want to disrupt the nuptials, which is why, before the strippers get here, you need to push "play". We'll enjoy something old, something new, something seedy...and vibrating, too!!

Everyone knows the wheels of commerce are greased by a steady flow of cocktails. At least, if you're Herb Tarlek, it's how things work. Herb has been on a sales binge for nearly a month now...which means he's also been on a drinking binge.

We've got Herb quoting Rip Tide and hiding big bottles of expensive looking bourbon in his bottom desk drawer. Okay, so it's an expensive looking bottle. The bourbon...not so much.  Herb has been downgrading the brew with some cheap stuff and a funnel. His clients don't seem to mind.

Herb may or may not have a problem. Okay...yeah...he's got a problem. Without lecturing, Art gives Herb a pretty effective lecture. Herb realizes things may not be as "okey-fine" as he thinks. He decides to try to correct his course before it's all gotten completely out of hand.

Like any good After School Special, we learn the big lesson in the third act. Then everyone goes home happy and better off than they were before the whole thing started. Well, Craig T. Nelson might not be better off...but we won't have to worry about him next week! You look a little green. Would you just hit "play" before you pass out, already?? Cheers!!

If you're Les Nessman, you know how important it is to stay vigilant. Commies are everywhere!! Pinkos, and other ne'er-do-wells who would undo our great democracy must be vigilantly repelled...even if one of them happens to be your own father!

This is an amazing story to take on in a single half hour of television. They threw in a lot of jokes...we've got a hilariously slapstick "B"-story involving Venus, Johnny and a studio project. We've got Jennifer preparing for Paris in the Springtime with a riotously off-kilter collection of travel phrases. You've never seen these in High School French Class!

Then, as you're laughing along at these great running gags, you suddenly realize you've been hit right in the heart with a gut-wrenching performance from an on-fire Richard Sanders. Or maybe it's ANOTHER gut-wrenching performance of some note courtesy of the guy who's playing Les' dad...Les' real dad...not Lester Nessman, Sr.

Get ready for an under-appreciated gem in the WKRP episode bag. Oh, did we mention...we've got SAM ANDERSON??!! How could this get any better? What are you waiting for??!! Push 'play' for a major Red Scare.

Somebody needs to save The Flimm!! The owners of the landmark Osgood R. Flimm building, located in downtown Cincinnati, have decided it's time for an upgrade. The 50 year old Art-Deco structure is scheduled for demolition...according to the Registered Letter Art got in today's mail.

The gang is outraged...livid...but, hey, we're talking Real Estate Mega-bucks, so what're ya gonna do??

Bailey decides she's not going to take this lying down...or sitting still or standing by...she's a bit drunk. Her directions are a bit confused.

The Campaign to Save the Flimm is ON! WKRP is the nerve center. Bailey is in charge while Jennifer is supporting the effort with her heretofore unknown typing skills!! The lady can TYPE! (just not for Herb!!)

Will the Flimm be saved? Will Bailey pass out after her next Old Fashioned?? Will Art finally concentrate and finish an editorial?? These and more questions will be answered when you hit "play" on this edition of The WKRP-Cast!!

Herb had a good idea (no, seriously...he did!!!) He suggested a call-in advice show. They're sweeping the nation! His buddy in St. Louis had all kinds of great stories about great ratings, winning timeslots...how could they NOT??

Finding the right host proves to be a challenge. Depending on how you count it up, it took them either five and a half months or a full year to find the perfect advice lady...her name is Arlene. Once they've found her, it only takes a day or two for "Ask Arlene" to be up and running on the station.

The day of the big launch, Arlene has a bit of a mishap involving three Valium. Jennifer steps up as "Arlene" to answer caller questions. Wow, Ms. Marlowe is GOOD at this!! She winds up taking calls for...oh, who really knows how long? It's a while, we know that. Everything is fun and games until one of Jennifer's bits of advice may have gotten someone hurt.

It's a fun show with a big message. Curl up with the phone and give us a call...we'd be glad to tell you what to do!! First thing you should do right now: push "play"!!

So, when we left you last time, things were pretty rosy for the good Doctor. His "Rip Tide" persona saved his contract breaching butt just before airtime. Now, he's having a blast letting his ID run wild in the form of his alter-ego, sleazeball creation.

How far will Rip go? How far will Johnny LET him go? Can Johnny even control this rampaging spandex menace? Find out as we take on "Dr. Fever and Mr. Tide - PART 2"!!

Johnny needs money...so what else is new? Big difference today, Johnny's picked up a side gig! He's been tapped to host a new Teen Dance show in the Cincinnati market!! (Hold on...Johnny FEVER? Dance Party?) Yeah, this one looked questionable from the start!!

Johnny may have been persuaded by the pretty face hiding a shark of a producer named Avis. Avis lured Johnny in with too much Champagne and too few clothes. He signed a fairly ironclad contract. It wasn't until WAY too late he discovered this whole "dance" scene had nothing to do with Rock-n-Roll. It was all about the hated DISCO!! 

Johnny's back is to the wall. If he doesn't get his sequined booty on the "Gotta Dance" stage he will be sued back to the Stone Age. Have no fear, the Ripper is here!! Johnny creates an "alter-ego" he calls "Rip Tide." Rip saves the day and becomes a HIT in Cincinnati. The kids can't get enough of the sad-eyed, middle-aged man in the clown suit who plays the disco hits!!

The original DF&MT was a full hour the night it premiered. It was broken into two half hours for syndication. In the interest of our sanity, and to keep you from slogging through a two-hour podcast, we're breaking it down, too. This is PART ONE! Got your skates laced up? Spandex on?

It wasn't until WAY too late he discovered this whole "dance" scene had nothing to do with Rock-n-Roll. It was all about the hated DISCO!! 

Johnny's back is to the wall. If he doesn't get his sequined booty on the "Gotta Dance" stage he will be sued back to the Stone Age. Have no fear, the Ripper is here!! Johnny creates an "alter-ego" he calls "Rip Tide." Rip saves the day and becomes a HIT in Cincinnati. The kids can't get enough of the sad-eyed, middle-aged man in the clown suit who plays the disco hits!!

The original DF&MT was a full hour the night it premiered. It was broken into two half hours for syndication. In the interest of our sanity, and to keep you from slogging through a two-hour podcast, we're breaking it down, too. This is PART ONE! Got your skates laced up? Spandex on? It sounds like you Gotta Dance!!!...er, I mean you Gotta Push PLAY!!

We meet WKRP's cleaning lady, Cora...and she's got a problem. Her "little boy" Arnold just isn't all that into school. He's 16 and finding more success on the streets than in the classroom. Cora has turned to Venus Flytrap for his advice and help. Could he maybe have a talk with young Arnold?

Young Arnold turns out to be a middle-aged man...but we'll have to overlook that for the story. He's just as big, tricky and mean as his mama said. He also does NOT understand chemistry. Venus bets Arnold he can get Arnold to understand the atom in two minutes.

What happens next is one of the most amazing chemistry lessons ever aired on a sitcom. It won a Humanitas Award for script writer Hugh Wilson. It's also a pretty darn good piece of visual learning and metaphor.

Push "play" and join us in the storeroom as Professor Venus takes center stage. We're about to learn all about the atom and, if there's time...we'll do a little something on magnets.

There's been an accident at the Tarlek home!! The kids are fine...so's Lucille. No, the victim of this tragedy is Greenpeace. Not ringing a bell? Greenpeace is the name of Bunny's pet frog. She's become something of an environmentalist at the tender age of 9. Greenpeace got in the way of Herb's cabinet painting and wound up...pink.

There's no 911 for Frogs! The vet won't even make a house call. Herb decides to bring his sad little shoe box with the holes cut in the top into work hoping for...something. Can one of the gang help Herb with some magical frog resuscitation? Not likely, but we're game to watch them give it a try!

Greenpeace gets doused with coffee water, prodded by a podiatrist and ultimately expires on Herb's desk. When the day is done, and Herb is forced to confront a concerned Bunny...well, you'll have to push 'play' and see which way this thing is going to hop!

Art's been tapped by the Ohio Broadcaster's Association to give a speech at a dinner. He's got his 3 by 5 cards and he's done his research...but he's scared to DEATH about speaking to these guys. As Art says, "they can be a mean bunch." The speech is tonight, but Art is trying to back out. Andy, with a little help from Jennifer, convinces the Big Guy to give his speech in front of the troops to bolster his confidence.

It's a pretty boring speech. Sorry, Art...but, wow! Snoozerino! As Art drones on, the gang is lost in their own thoughts. We are able...through the magic of TV, and the incredibly hard work of a talented team of set, lighting and design people...to peer into everyone's thoughts and Daydreams!!

Herb is running his own country...well, so's Bailey for that matter...and Les is reporting from war-torn London. Venus is doing standup and Johnny is a whacked out rockstar (more whacked out than usual). The whole gang gets a chance to live their fantasies. Too bad Andy's doesn't go any further than the programming office.

Wake up! You really should pay attention. Splash your face with a little cold water, then push "play."

Sunday night was the big Charity Auction at Art Carlson's church. On Monday morning we find that only Bailey and Herb were in attendance. ONLY Herb bought anything...a painting. Herb didn't buy it because he likes it. He was just looking for some kudos from the Big Guy. Now Herb is out a hundred bucks, he's got a painting he doesn't like and his best buddy Les, who was supposed to split it with him, got called away to Dayton!

What's a salesman to do? How about sell the painting?? He sells it to EVERYBODY! Bailey, who loved it on Sunday but didn't buy, decides she has to have it. Wait a minute...it might actually be valuable!! Should Herb sell? Hold onto it? The pressure is making him wheeze.

Grab a calculator, Fellow Babies...you're gonna need it. By the time this one's all over you'll probably be out forty bucks yourself. Push 'play'...then put your hand on your billfold.

Sunday night was the big Charity Auction at Art Carlson's church. On Monday morning we find that only Bailey and Herb were in attendance. ONLY Herb bought anything...a painting. Herb didn't buy it because he likes it. He was just looking for some kudos from the Big Guy. Now Herb is out a hundred bucks, he's got a painting he doesn't like and his best buddy Les, who was supposed to split it with him, got called away to Dayton!

What's a salesman to do? How about sell the painting?? He sells it to EVERYBODY! Bailey, who loved it on Sunday but didn't buy, decides she has to have it. Wait a minute...it might actually be valuable!! Should Herb sell? Hold onto it? The pressure is making him wheeze.

Grab a calculator, Fellow Babies...you're gonna need it. By the time this one's all over you'll probably be out forty bucks yourself. Push 'play'...then put your hand on your billfold.

'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release.

It's January in Cincinnati and the heat is out in the Flimm Building!! The Morning Show must go on, so our resident Doctor has ordered in a special prescription. It comes in a brown bottle and may or may not have been purchased at a hardware store.

The concoction has Johnny seeing things!! Is that Mama Carlson in the hallway?? Surely not...she never drops by unannounced. Then again, the cold makes people do some strange things.

Jennifer and Johnny are toasting Pale Gray...Mama is toasting Hank's magnificent shoulders and Andy is feeling the least bit violated by Mama's roaming hands. Keep your coat on, hold your mug out and get ready to take the chill off. Oh, hey!...Venus is here! (why is Venus here again??). It's a madcap morning you won't want to miss. Take a deep pull on that bottle and hit 'play.'

Is it really that time of year again? It seems mere weeks since we were scarfing down eggnog at Jennie-poo's place. Now we're partying at the station. Herb brought the ham!! (at least, we think it's ham...ask him if it can spoil).

Art might be cheaping out on the Christmas bonuses this year...he's done it in the past. Nobody is happy and Art's in a haze brought on my some of Dr. Fever's baked goods.

What's that??! Chains!? A GHOST of Grandpa!!?? Hang on a minute...this isn't one of those cheesy rip-offs of Dickens' "Christmas Carol"...is it?? Oh, yeah, it IS!! Jennifer's in the past, Johnny's in the future and Venus is presiding over the bullpen. The podcast is a blast, but you don't want to miss these visuals. Pop on your Shout! Factory disk, add rum liberally to the eggnog and hit 'play'.  Grab a brownie if you're so inclined....or save it for later if you're driving. This one isn't over until the checks are written!!

Herb has been selected for jury duty. Our legal system may never be the same. He tries, of course, to get out of it. If only Andy hadn't been there to tip the Big Guy about the legal mumbo-jumbo!! Andy's concerned about the overdue clients, soooo...

Herb's off to jury duty, Andy's taking Herb's chair and Venus is getting a chance to P.D. in Andy's place. What could go wrong...right?

Sales isn't as easy as it looks, especially when you're selling WKRP. Andy adopts some worrying Herbisms as he attempts to out-maneuver some of Herb's deadbeat clients. Venus is working on an ulcer as he fights it out with Johnny. Hasn't he been watching ANDY fight it out with Johnny? The whole ordeal has the guys talking in unison, Andy putting goo in his hair and the Big Guy is heading out for a steam. What we've learned here is, when the going gets tough...the tough go for a steam!

Remember last season when Art and his lovely wife Carmen discovered they were pregnant?? In the world of WKRP, it must be nine months later!! Carmen is going to have a baby!!

After the cold open, the whole gang adjourns to a really COOL hospital set. It's so cool, this is where they will spend the rest of the episode. Not only are they doing this one without a radio station, they're also doing it without an audience. You can't have elaborate sets like these without sacrifice! Just how was WKRP able to afford such a cool set? Cancelled soap? Ahhh...gotcha!

Johnny was herbally meditating when Travis called him down to the hospital. His recreational endeavors may be why he's so open to a discussion of the afterlife with a sweet little old lady who goes by the awkward name of "Peggy Sue." And if you knew Peggy Sue like Johnny knows Peggy Sue...well, you'll just have to push 'play' and watch the episode!!

Art screws up his courage and the whole gang is there to welcome...well, we don't get a name. For that matter we also don't a gender, eye color or a length/weight. We're also curious as to the whereabouts of Mama Carlson. Maybe she's staying home with Little Arthur. So are Carmen's folks no longer with us? Good thing Art is so close with the gang at the station or he'd be all alone at the hospital. Push 'play' to experience the miracle of podcasting.

Remember last season when Art and his lovely wife Carmen discovered they were pregnant?? In the world of WKRP, it must be nine months later!! Carmen is going to have a baby!!

After the cold open, the whole gang adjourns to a really COOL hospital set. It's so cool, this is where they will spend the rest of the episode. Not only are they doing this one without a radio station, they're also doing it without an audience. You can't have elaborate sets like these without sacrifice! Just how was WKRP able to afford such a cool set? Cancelled soap? Ahhh...gotcha!

Johnny was herbally meditating when Travis called him down to the hospital. His recreational endeavors may be why he's so open to a discussion of the afterlife with a sweet little old lady who goes by the awkward name of "Peggy Sue." And if you knew Peggy Sue like Johnny knows Peggy Sue...well, you'll just have to push 'play' and watch the episode!!

Art screws up his courage and the whole gang is there to welcome...well, we don't get a name. For that matter we also don't a gender, eye color or a length/weight. We're also curious as to the whereabouts of Mama Carlson. Maybe she's staying home with Little Arthur. So are Carmen's folks no longer with us? Good thing Art is so close with the gang at the station or he'd be all alone at the hospital. Push 'play' to experience the miracle of podcasting.

[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs.

Hold on!! Don't go anywhere! It's a joke...it's an allegory...it's an incredibly inventive way to tell a story! It's P.J. Torokvei being given a greenlight by Hugh Wilson to do one of the most incredible half hours of late 20th Century Television ever made.

Or not...

"Real Families" could be hanging in a museum somewhere, endlessly debated by those who value and appreciate the formative capacity of television on society. Is this brilliant commentary? A weird focus on an unlikable character? Shrill satire? A little of Column A...?

This is truly the template for the cringy and hilarious documentary style perfected by "The Office." Don't touch that dial!! (a lot of people did). Hang in there. The rewards will be amazing. Got your popcorn? Just remember...even though they call it "Real" families, they're on TV, so it can't be THAT real, right?

If there is one thing Les Nessman has always coveted, it is the ability to soar above the clouds. His greatest wish is the chance to report back to the ground about the wonders he has discovered...especially when it comes to traffic patterns in and around Cincinnati. WPIG has a brand new helicopter...the ONLY "Live Eye in the Sky" in the market!! There's a "copter gap" or somesuch...you'll have to ask Les.

Nessman can't stand it!! He does something...brash. Les hires an area crop duster to take him out over Cincinnati's highway system. Les somehow manages to establish a "plane to studio" link up. His first report takes place the day before Veterans Day. Art and Andy are mortified...Herb is amused...Johnny could care Les.

This is the first episode of Season 3. It was rushed to air in a week after the end of the Actor's Strike. The rushed production schedule, and a weird remote shooting schedule, give this episode a lurching, off-kilter quality. We've got a couple of Poster Watches...but no "Fashion Alert" or "Vibin' Threads."

Join us, Fellow Babies. We'll power through this one together even if our faces look like we just chugged Johnny's health drink!! Put your seats and tray tables in the full upright position, push 'play' and prepare for take-off!

It's media awards night in Cincinnati! Awards night means time to get out your best tux, slick back your hair, and mingle with folks you probably used to work with at one time. Any evening media function is usually a great place to get hammered with your work friends while not worrying about being at work. It's also a great place to catch up on the best gossip and scuttlebutt. If you're lucky, and somewhat good, you might also go home with a bit of hardware for the evening.

Johnny wins! The station does not. Johnny is named most popular air personality on a station of 5000 watts or less. The resulting clash amongst the KRP staff is ugly, but predictable. Fragile egos need stroking not battering. Even though Johnny seemingly doesn't care about the hardware, the fact he won is making everyone else in the station NUTS! Les is running around getting Primal (we'll explain). Andy has moved beyond his subtly violent threats to shouting in Les' face. It's not the most conducive work environment. It feels like someone should call a meeting!!

The airing of dirty laundry begins. At least, it's SUPPOSED to. Art can't get anyone to admit there might be a problem around the Mighty KRP. Jennifer brings the whole 'family' dynamic of the place to light with a sweet monologue about family and little sisters and lovable jackasses (Jennifer explains it better).

Push 'play'...it looks as though the lovely Celeste has an envelope with YOUR name on it!!

We all know Venus is one talented nighttime guy. It's no surprise the Urban Powerhouse in Cincinnati is reaching out to WKRP's own Prince of Darkness. WREQ, 'the Ramblin' Wreck', is making an offer he might find hard to refuse. He’s staring down tons more money, and the coveted title of Program Director. Venus has a meeting scheduled. Turns out, Venus is the last to know about his offer. Les has already spread the word, having heard from the Wreck's news director.

Venus takes a meeting with a man made entirely of smarm. Hey, look, it's TERRY KISER!! Venus gets the nudge-nudge, wink-wink as Station Manager Jason Realli (Really?) mentions affirmative action and corporate policies. Red flags are flying all over the place for Venus. The only respite from the Storm of Smarm is the lovely African American receptionist at the Wreck. Is this "incredibly hot receptionist" thing a trend in Cincinnati?

We all know Venus is one talented nighttime guy. It's no surprise the Urban Powerhouse in Cincinnati is reaching out to WKRP's own Prince of Darkness. WREQ, 'the Ramblin' Wreck', is making an offer he might find hard to refuse. He’s staring down tons more money, and the coveted title of Program Director. Venus has a meeting scheduled. Turns out, Venus is the last to know about his offer. Les has already spread the word, having heard from the Wreck's news director.

Venus takes a meeting with a man made entirely of smarm. Hey, look, it's TERRY KISER!! Venus gets the nudge-nudge, wink-wink as Station Manager Jason Realli (Really?) mentions affirmative action and corporate policies. Red flags are flying all over the place for Venus. The only respite from the Storm of Smarm is the lovely African American receptionist at the Wreck. Is this "incredibly hot receptionist" thing a trend in Cincinnati?

The hour long "Filthy Pictures" continues!! This week, it gets even BETTER! We've got comments with the Sleazy Photographer himself, George Wyner, throughout this week's episode.

You remember last time, we discovered that sleazy photog D. Arnold Gonzer took advantage of some legal-release mumbo-jumbo and shot revealing photos of our Ms. Marlowe. He plans to sell them to the highest bidder. Hmmm...what if that bidder turned out to be Johnny and Bailey? Er...ummm...Phillipe and Ginger?

It's a sting, it's a hoot...it's a WHOLE lot of purple. Is Gonzer Gay? Herb does his best to find out. You can push 'play' now...but fair warning: Phillipe will despise you whether you listen or not.

This week's episode ran as a full hour. Since we didn't want to dump a two hour podcast on you...we're doing what they did with it in syndication: breaking it into two pieces.

Art Carlson is a civic-minded fella. We thought he was a Rotarian. Turns out, Art's a Kiwanian. Different name, different club, same sense of civic-duty. Art is in charge of the big fundraising fashion show this year, so he's turning to the gang for help. If for the kids and he needs models! He especially needs a smiling, happy couple to appear on the poster. Andy and Jennifer will fill the bill!! (and, they are the only two left after Art's big meeting).

The photographer taking the poster shots is 100% sleazy. He's a friend of Herb's, so go figure. He takes the pics...then he takes some EXTRA pix of Jennifer. She's unaware since he's shooting them through a one-way mirror into her DRESSING ROOM!!

Art discovers the photos and prosecutable hilarity ensues. A break-in! A sting! It's an hour loaded with very little radio business, but a TON of laughs! We'll get you to the break-in this week...then make sure to come back NEXT week for more picture retrieving schemes!!

Hey, Fellow Babies!! It's been awhile! Thanks for continuing to listen to the WKRP-Cast. Make sure to tell the other Fellow Babies to dial us up!! We know there are others out there who haven't joined the party.

If you remember, at the end of the original podcast run, we mentioned putting together a "Line of the Episode" Super Cut. The "LOTE" feature was added to the 28th episode, "Carlson for President." In order to do a SuperCut for the entire series, we had to go back through all of the first season and a few second season episodes to determine a Line of the Episode.

WE FINALLY GOT IT DONE!! This is it!! All 90 episodes (well, not "Love Returns"...but the other 89!) are boiled down to about 11 minutes of hilarity. Some of them are a riot, some of them will fly right by unless you are a BIG fan and really know your 'KRP.

If you should hear a missed clip of Johnny ON THE AIR, please drop us a note to WKRPCast@gmail.com so we can add it to the aircheck.

HEY, FELLOW BABIES!! Welcome to a Special Release from the WKRP-Cast!
In order to improve your performance as a deejay, it was important to hear yourself on the air. The process of recording yourself and listening back to your show was called doing an "air check." Usually, a Program Director would require on-air staff to air-check themselves anywhere from once a week to once a month. After a jock has air-checked their show, they would sit down with the PD and critique the content. They might discuss anything from what headlines or news bits the talent selected as talk topics to presentation to attitude to verbal tics. For instance, Johnny says "alright" an awful lot. A good PD would point something like that out and have him work on being aware of it and reducing how many times he says it.

Since an air-check is about the deejay, there was no need for a PD to sit through a lot of music. They only wanted to hear the performer's bits and intros. This is where the "skimmer" or "air check machine" came into play. A skimmer was a cassette deck in the control room taking a feed from the program 'out' of the board. Everything coming off the board went through the skimmer. The on-off switch for the skimmer was connected to the board mic switch. When the deejay turned on the mic, the skimmer started recording. Whatever was happening at the moment the mic was turned on would be captured on the skim tape. It might be the end of a song, the last few words of a spot, the final sign-off from a newscast, etc. The skimmer would then record whatever the deejay says while the mic is on.

As soon as the deejay turned the mic off, the skimmer would stop. A deejay doesn't normally turn the mic off immediately after they stop talking. This meant the skimmer might capture the first few bars of the next song or a few words of the first spot played in the next stop set. At the end of a shift, the skim tape would only contain whatever the deejay had said throughout the four or five hours of their show. A lot of deejays would keep these air-check tapes, especially when they had a good shift. Air-check tapes are not only a great tool for the Program Director to use. They are also a fantastic tool for a deejay to use to land another job.

We decided to create Dr. Johnny Fever's air-check. This is a collection of only those things Johnny has said OVER THE AIR while on WKRP. It's edited the same way an air-check or skim tape would have sounded in the 1980s, with no fades and beep tones between segments. We've pulled every Johnny talk bit from Pilot Part One all the way through to "Up and Down the Dial" (In Shout! Factory episode order).

At the end of a shift, the skim tape would only contain whatever the deejay had said throughout the four or five hours of their show. A lot of deejays would keep these air-check tapes, especially when they had a good shift. Air-check tapes are not only a great tool for the Program Director to use. They are also a fantastic tool for a deejay to use to land another job.

We decided to create Dr. Johnny Fever's air-check. This is a collection of only those things Johnny has said OVER THE AIR while on WKRP. It's edited the same way an air-check or skim tape would have sounded in the 1980s, with no fades and beep tones between segments. We've pulled every Johnny talk bit from Pilot Part One all the way through to "Up and Down the Dial" (In Shout! Factory episode order).

Incredibly, we are finished with all 90 of the syndicated episode breakdowns. Two years ago this day seemed SOOOO far away. Now that it's here, we are a little bummed we won't be dropping a new show into your podcast feed each Tuesday. We do hope you keep re-listening to old shows. You'd be surprised how much you forget! (Quick, who invented the Whoopee Cushion??)

As we've rolled along, many listeners have supplied us with corrections, or additional information about some of the things we've discussed. Sometimes we've just totally blown it (President Aaron Burr, anyone?). We started to collect up these corrections with the thought we might address them someday. With no more episodes to dismantle, 'someday' is here.

This is our "Misses & Messes" Episode. Anything we've missed, anything we've messed up, we've tried to include it in this episode. Which state has the most Tornadoes? You wouldn't know after listening to the episode "Tornado." We explain what we messed up and who's really got the most twisters. We've thrown in a couple of laughs, a few music clips, some weird sound effects...so it's our usual grab bag of goofiness, only without a new episode of WKRP to talk about (sniff).

WATCH ALONG DETAILS...
[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog" episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

We launched our first episode on Sept. 1st of 2020. At the time we casually thought, "yeah, this'll take about two years." It seemed so far off! Amazingly, it's here. We've been through 89 of the 90 syndicated episodes of WKRP. We've unearthed new and exciting WKRP trivia! We've talked to more than 20 WKRP guest stars, writers and producers. We've had some big laughs! It's been a blast connecting with WKRP fans from around the world.

We have ONE regular episode to go...but not until NEXT week! THIS week, we're talking to two of our most frequent podcast contributors. We hear from Canadian 'blogger Roy Penney and the man who we've dubbed "The Accountant of Rock", Mr. Michael Hernandez.

These guys live and breathe WKRP. They've been a huge resource for us as we prepare the show each week. It was fun getting to know both of them. They've got some great insights into the show! Check it out.

Then...next week...September 20th...it will be time (sniff, sniff) for our final episode!! (ON the 40th Anniversary of the Final Episode!)

After that...stay tuned, Fellow Babies! We might have a HUGE INTERVIEW coming your way to cap off the series. We don't want to jinx it, so no announcements until everything is in the can.

So, what are you waiting for?? RP and The Accountant of Rock have stuff to say!! Push 'Play'!!

Hey, Fellow Babies!! Amazingly, we just passed our second anniversary since dropping the "Prolog" episode on 9/1/20. Two Big Years of the WKRP-Cast!! 

Since it's Labor Day in the United States, we are taking off this weekend. No new episode, but we DO have a new interview for you. After about a year of pursuit, we finally caught up to Stacy Heather Tolkin. She played "Bunny Tarlek" in both the "Real Families" and "Frog Story" episodes.  Although she was only seven at the time, Stacy has some great memories of working on the show.

We talk to Stacy for about half an hour. Since she mentioned "Frog Story" several times, it seemed like the perfect add-on. So, enjoy a re-run of our episode about "Frog Story" following Stacy's interview.

We're counting down to the end!! We will be running our final "episode" version of the podcast on 9/20. September 20th is the ACTUAL 40th Anniversary of the airing of the final first-run episode of the show.

We hope you had a safe and Happy Labor Day Fellow Babies. Now start Fall by listening to our discussion with "Bunny."

Hey, Fellow Babies!! We celebrated our 35th Wedding Anniversary on June 20th. Rather than spend the week working on a new show, we took the week off to celebrate! We didn't want to leave you completely high-and-dry, so we're re-running a romantic favorite: "Patter of Little Feet."

We did cut a new intro. We've got a project in the works and we're needing your help. We've decided to do a "Misses and Messes" episode as a capper for the series. Those things we missed, and things we messed up. What have you heard? Go back and listen. Take notes! Big things we missed...or messed...send us the episode title and what we should either add or change.  We'll gather them all together and talk about it at the end of the series in September.

Hope your summer is going well!! Anniversary Congrats to any other Fellow Babies who might be celebrating the memory of their nuptials (since most weddings happen in the summer). Next week: "Pills".  We have one more week of leisurely summer with another re-release over the 4th, then we start a run of new shows all the way through to Labor Day! (NOTE: Keep an eye on that rerun for the 4th...we might have a BIG bonus for you!!)

Hey, Fellow Babies! We here at the WKRP-Cast have taken the week off for Memorial Day. Since this is an elaborate hobby and doesn't pay much of anything (aside from you Patrons...THANK YOU, Patrons!!) we figured we deserved a week off.

But, we didn't want to leave you Fellow Babies hangin'! We wanted to get something new to you, only without putting in the 40+ hours involved in creating a regular episode (and, no exaggeration...more than 40 hours go into EVERY WKRP-Cast! Writing, researching, recording and editing...2 people x 20 hours each. See why you should be donating to Patreon? Patreon.com/WKRPCast. Come on! Join the cool kids!! Only $5 a month).

Searching our archives, we realized we've been sitting on a new interview since February. We talked to Eileen Barnett (who played 'Arlene' in the Season 3 episode, "Ask Jennifer")! The problem: we didn't talk to her until after the episode aired. We didn't know what to do with this interview sitting here...then the lightning struck! How about we re-run "Ask Jennifer" only we INCLUDE the Eileen interview??

Have a safe and awesome Memorial Day, Fellow Babies! Enjoy the new stuff...and the re-run. Also, this summer you need to binge some WKRP-Cast! Pop in the earbuds before yard work...put us on the stereo for a long car ride. It's the perfect way to re-watch WKRP with your ears...and you might learn something, too!!

Hey, Fellow Babies!! Welcome to this podcast "Special Report". Today marked what many believe to be the anniversary of the "final" regular season, first run WKRP episode.

We have evidence this is not true. We're going to go into detail as we finish out the podcast, but we thought you might like an overview instead of waiting all summer.

Hey, Fellow Babies!! The Cincinnati trip was a huge success. We got back just a couple of hours before recording this episode. We had a great time, even if we are a little sore (we walked a LOT!). 

There's tons of info in this week's show about the trip!! A tip: check the show Facebook page. All you have to do is search "WKRP-Cast" in Facebook and you'll find us. We mention FB posts a LOT in today's show. If you haven't been following our Epic Adventure, you'll want to take a look at some of our posts. Much of the trip was pretty visual, and we did snap a LOT of pix.

We also caught up with a couple of interesting guys who have had a LOT to do with WKRP over the years. The first was Bob Gerding. Bob is the local Video Pro who shot the opening and all of the exteriors whenever they needed something out in Studio City. Bob has some GREAT stories from working on the show. 

THEN we talked to the man who is the dean of Media Reporting in Cincinnati: John Kiesewetter or just "Kiese". Kiese wrote for the Cincinnati Enquirer starting just after WKRP went off network. He followed it through the syndication episodes with the lost music, hacked scenes and awful attempt at a DVD release in 2007. He's talked to every one of the show principles and written about them all multiple times over the years (except maybe Jan). Kiese took us on an incredible tour of Cincinnati looking at it through the lens of WKRP. 

We'll have full interviews with both of these guys plus a rundown of our four WKRP-Filled days in Cincinnati. Strap in, Fellow Babies...the Cincinnati tour is leaving as soon as you push "play."

Hey Fellow Babies!! We hope you're enjoying whatever end of year festivities are your custom. We celebrate Christmas, so we're hanging with family over the holidays eating too much and opening presents. Yeah...it also means we're taking the week off!! Fear not!! We didn't want to leave you hanging completely, so we've recorded a new intro for "Jennifer's Home for Christmas", and we are re-running this holiday episode (we originally ran it last May...we also like being able to drop it over Christmas).

Enjoy the festive holiday laughs, then get ready for NEXT week when we finish off "Dr. Fever and Mr. Tide." What a great way to start the new year!!

(Oh, and if "Jen's Home" isn't enough Christmas Cheer for you, make sure to replay "Bah, Humbug" from earlier this winter for more Holiday Hijinks!!)

Hey, Fellow Babies! Guess what? We're still moving! We tore down the audio editor and piled it into the back of a U-Haul with the rest of our stuff on Oct. 13th. Goodbye, Illinois!! (it was fun...but we won't miss the winters!). Hello, Arkansas! (but not as fast as we thought...construction slowdown due to supply chain issues at the new place). We've taken a 2-week hiatus to let us get moved and settled into the new place (and, of course, get to podcastin'!!).

We didn't want to leave you completely KRP-less this week, so we loaded up a favorite episode. Strap in...we're taking a ride with Hamilton Camp as Del Murdoch!! It's "Hold Up"!

[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.]

Hey, Fellow Babies! Guess what? We're still moving! We tore down the audio editor and piled it into the back of a U-Haul with the rest of our stuff on Oct. 13th. Goodbye, Illinois!! (it was fun...but we won't miss the winters!). Hello, Arkansas! (but not as fast as we thought...construction slowdown due to supply chain issues at the new place). We've taken a 2-week hiatus to let us get moved and settled into the new place (and, of course, get to podcastin'!!).

We didn't want to leave you completely KRP-less this week, so we loaded up a favorite episode. Strap in...we're taking a ride with Hamilton Camp as Del Murdoch!! It's "Hold Up"! Have another laugh at "Wingy Mennone" and we will be back with you fresh and new next week.  Thanks for bearing with us! -Allen & Donna

Hey, Fellow Babies! The massive "Stare Relocation Tour 2021" is on! We tore down the audio editor and piled it into the back of a U-Haul with the rest of our stuff on Oct. 13th. Goodbye, Illinois!! (it was fun...but we won't miss the winters!). Hello, Arkansas! (in about a week...construction slowdown due to supply chain issues at the new place). Since we knew there was no way to get a new show out for this week, we decided to give you a sample of something. Our Patrons have already heard it (sorry, Patrons...oh, and b-t-dubs: you guys ROCK!!).

We started recording our "First Watch" sessions with each new episode and made them into  "Patron Extras." They've been very well received. We thought we'd give you a sample of some of the 'behind-the-scenes" extra content you can get when you support the WKRP-Cast on Patreon. $5 a month!! We're retired...support us in our old age and we'll keep making podcasts!!

Enjoy this "First Watch" sample from Les' Groupie. We've got a re-release loaded up for next week, but  we are planning on a NEW SHOW the first week of November!!  (come on supply chain!!). Thanks for bearing with us! -Allen & Donna

Hey, Fellow Babies...we've got big doings around here!! We talk about it in a little more detail in the intro. We're moving! Retirement, warmer weather...we'll still be podcasting, just not in frigid Central Illinois. Be patient with us the next few weeks. Our recording space will be changing. Once we're in the new place everything should stabilize. Until then, be ready for anything!!

Special episode this week: We asked our Patrons to pick their favorite. It wasn't unanimous or anything, but this one did stand out in the voting. Enjoy, and be back for a NEW episode next week!!

Hey, Fellow Babies! If you happen to be from the United States, a Happy and Safe Fourth of July to you! If you are from elsewhere, this is the week where happy citizens of the U.S. celebrate their independence by spending a fortune on fireworks and ER visits.  We are taking the week off for a little vacation...but we didn't want to leave you hanging without anything to listen to from the WKRP-Cast!! We've done a new intro to our MOST POPULAR download from the first year of the podcast. Got any guesses? It's NOT "Turkeys Away."

We also have a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!! The WKRP-Cast now has a Patreon page! Thanks to you, our audience numbers have become 'viable.' Viable means there are enough of you listening to justify an advertiser spending money on jamming a commercial in front of your ears. Don't get us wrong, we like money but we DON'T like commercials. We'd rather not have one (or two, or three) in the show. The idea of making some money from the show is very attractive. We're nearing a point where JUST podcasting seems like a fun (and possible)  career path. This started out as a pandemic hobby. Lately, we find ourselves doing other 'real work' kinds of things and realize, we'd rather be podcasting!!

Hopefully, you value the work we're doing enough to support the show. This is all voluntary. We aren't holding the show hostage or anything. The weekly Tuesday episodes will remain free and available to anyone who wants to listen.  We do hope to be adding additional things behind the paywall...more interviews, roundtable discussions, extra background on things we find and, your suggestions! If you're a subscriber, we hope you'll help us tailor the content we provide to subscribers.

The WKRP-Cast found Elgar...er, Christian...who is living in Reno, NV.  You know how how high-energy Elgar is? There's a lot of Christian in Elgar...we got him to hold still for a few minutes and talk to us!! Christian was kind enough to Zoom about WKRP and his MTM Studio experiences. Get ready, gang...Elgar is gonna blow you away! Did you know that extremely tall Funeral Director Randall Ferryman (played by Fred Stuthman) almost had a 4'11" executive assistant?!? Neither did we!! NOBODY did!! Christian tells the tale.  Christian had a ton of involvement with the show AND he was actually consulted on the creation of the "Elgar" character!

If you thought you knew all the backstage details about the Mighty 'KRP...get ready. Christian is adding chapters to the tale!! Hang up your briefcase phone, put your Italian pistol away and hit "play"...it's time to listen to your lawyer!!

********
In the episode, we mention the article done on Christian by "Our Town Reno."  It's a very well done piece that covers his early performing life and gets into the very trying period following his work on WKRP.  It's a period Christian would rather not discuss, but he did give us permission to share the article.

Settle in kids, and prepare for a thrilling tale of yesteryear!! Okay, so maybe it's not quite THAT old...but this is going back a bit.  In Atlanta in the early 1970s, an advertising executive was dealing with a demon. It was the Demon of Creativity, and it was forcing him to write and to create. This ad exec's name, of course, was Hugh Wilson. The thing he was driven to create all the way back in 1971 had a name: "The Bagel Report."  The Bagel Report, or TBR as we've started calling it, was a full-length movie. It was a comedy...a sex-comedy, actually...in the style of Woody Allen. TBR skewered modern sexual research and attitudes...even the name was a jab at "The Kinsey Report." TBR was baudy enough to get an "X" rating...but nobody was having sex. Hugh even said, if there'd been MORE sex it probably would have been a better movie. Every aspect of TBR was Hugh's baby from inception to production. He wrote, directed, produced, financed, cast and even got the coffee for "The Bagel Report."

VERY little is known about TBR. Only a handful have ever seen it. We were lucky enough to find someone who was IN THE BAGEL REPORT!! Janet Meshad-Wells is the wife of WKRP Music Director Tom Wells (1941-2012), an actress, and was a personal friend of Hugh Wilson. Janet was not only a part of the TBR cast, she did two scenes WITH Hugh Wilson. Janet mixed up a cocktail and got down to details with us. She talked Bagel Report, Hugh Wilson, Bill Dial, Hollywood, Atlanta and a WHOLE lot more! Our conversation is fast-paced, full of great details and, towards the end, possibly a bit tipsy. Yes, those are ice cubes you hear clinking in a glass. You should probably choose your own libation if you are so inclined before you hit 'play'...as Janet says, if we're talking about Hugh Wilson, we should really be drinking.

Hey, Fellow Babies! We've finished all of Season One!! Woo-hoo!! We thought we'd celebrate the turn of the seasons with something EXTRA.  If you heard our "Young Master Carlson" episode, then you're already very aware that Marcus Issoglio (aka "Sparky Marcus") is a NUT! This guy is FUNNY! We had a great time Zooming with him for about 90 minutes one Saturday afternoon. That interview was the source of the comments you heard in our "Young Master Carlson" podcast.

Although he did not set out to be a child actor (it was all mom and dad's doing) and he did NOT have a good childhood because of his job...Marcus still amassed some amazing stories. As much as he didn't enjoy the life of a child actor, he WAS working in the middle of an era many call the "Second Golden Age" of Television. He met and worked with stars who both were, and  have become, huge icons. We set out to limit our interview to his experiences on WKRP.  The rest of his career was not a fun time, so no need to bring any of THAT up, right?

Ah, but things got loose...we started talking...and he started remembering these AMAZING stories!! When it was all through, we not only had everything we needed for the podcast, we had SO much more! After getting Marcus' approval and permission, we decided we HAD to let you guys hear this stuff!! It's not ALL WKRP...but, wow, there is a lot of KRP mixed in there. Just when you think we're done with KRP...we go right back!!

A tip: even if you're not into the interview...you HAVE to stay until the "Star Wars" story. Seriously, listen to the "Star Wars" story, then you can shut it off. It is TOTALLY worth the wait!

Enjoy, Fellow Babies!! Next time you hear from us, we'll be back on the MTM Lot and Season Two will be getting underway!! Talk to you then!!  - Allen & Donna

Hey, Fellow Babies! Prepare yourselves for something COMPLETELY different! We're on a holiday break but we didn't want to leave you hanging for a full two weeks. So, we decided to do a little something "extra"...which is why we're calling this a "WKRP-Cast Extra"!! Huge thanks to Casey Piotrowski, writer of "Contest Nobody Could Win" for sharing the outline with us. Casey said they were handed out during a new writer's meeting in the fall of 1978. The "Turkeys Away" outline served as an example..."do it like this." Turns out, the 'outline' is actually a narrative description of the episode, complete with character lines and everything! When we first read through it, we thought, "this is kinda cool...you can sorta see the episode in there...". We decided a good way to share it with you would be to read it...word-for-word, start to finish. A lot easier to digest than a downloadable PDF, but if you want a downloadable PDF of the script in case you want to follow along, here's that, too:
