It appears the trickery worked as last week’s entire episode played through without clipping at the end. I know the realization of missing my extraordinary closing pieces was an eye-opener (more like an eye-roller). You don’t know what ya got till it’s gone.

Today brings us a DBG from March 3rd, 1995. I found this an enormously entertaining show that has a little bit of everything in it. Because of that, I’ll go with titling it: Junk Drawer Radio.

The Players:

Russ

The very affectionate Val in Needham

Kevin from Dorchester

Ed from Melrose

I’m in Studio

Jim Frawley producing and playing in studio

And Jack Harte with a solution to a radio conundrum that was being discussed

The Bdays:

Emilio Estefan, no Emilio Estevez..no Gloria Estefan. Close, it’s her husband. Nah…forget it.

Chastity Bono

The attractive woman in a different kind of way, Katherine O’Hara

Barbara McNair

We move on to Monday, 3/6

Rob Reiner

Ed McMahon and Norm really gets a kick out of Ed’s resumé

And Tom Arnold
