Wesley Eure and Kathy Coleman love their fans! They even kinda like ME.. I think. Joking aside, they are two of the most friendly and humble celebrities I know, and I do know a few! "Land of the Lost" was a huge hit for Sid and Marty Krofft, and Sid knew Wesley Eure was perfect for the role of Will Marshall. With the show about to celebrate it's (can you believe it) 50th Anniversary, they are going strong appearing on the comic con, and fan event circuit, as they always do. But Wes and Kathy always have a secret weapon at most of these shows. We're talking the yellow raft! Well, not THE Yellow Raft but close enough! We talk about how this genius idea of Kathy's REALLY hits it off with the many fans that attend these shows, myself included! We also discuss their newest venture "Wesley and Kathy's TV Talk". Enjoy the return of my pal Wesley Eure! https://www.wesleyeure.com/ @wesleyeure3236 @wesleyandkathystvtalk https://www.amazon.com/Run-Holly-Memoir-1970s-Classic

Just check out his YouTube channel, and you’ll see exactly what I mean.
Have you heard any great dad jokes lately? His one-liner lists are hilarious, not just because they’re funny, but because his squeaky-clean comedic timing and delivery make them even funnier!

Today Barry joins us to talk about this fun retro-nostalgic show which has been airing for years every Saturday morning from 10am to noon. We discuss our creative past when I had a small segment on the show, as well as how (we think) we met. Seems like I've known Barry all my life but in reality he and I have never even met personally.

Hey gang!
Here's a bit of a different type of interview for me, but I found it SO interesting AND incredibly worthwhile. While processing the episode's audio, it dawned on me (like a ton of bricks!) that MY own boy and girl fall inside the age range of the kids "Doors of Change" is working so hard to help! It's one thing to conduct an interview/conversation with the Founder and President of the organization, Mr. Jeffrey Sitcov, but to be able to go back and listen, as in this case, has REALLY touched me! Hits home.
As Jeffrey says, they don't offer "a hand-out, but a hand up." Such a great quote. I hope you'll consider offering a tax-deductible donation to this absolutely worthy cause. We did. Here are the links I promised, and if you're in or around San Diego on July 27th, go to the Concert for Hope and "Do a little dance, make a little love, and save a kid that night"!

USA TODAY: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/12/15/homelessness-in-america-grew-2023/71926354007/#
Here’s a few names you just may recognize singing their praises!
"Doors of Change, keep up the good work that you do. My heart goes out to all of you and the youth that benefits from your efforts. Your use of art and music programs to reach and encourage homeless youth is inspired. You should be proud that your successful efforts in San Diego have been recognized and are being used in other cities across the country.”— America's Happiest TV Mom, Marion Ross (Happys Days / Brooklyn Bridge / Gilmore Girls and former San Diego Resident)
In the last year, the number of homeless youth has increased considerably. Today, more than ever before, the stress of being a teenager can be too overwhelming, too confusing and too many find themselves on our streets trying to survive. Doors of Change has discovered a unique way to connect with them, through music and art programs that have not only been saving lives, but taken our young from hopeless to hopeful. Offering more than food and shelter, they build self esteem and respect for themselves and others.— America's Most Off Beat Dysfuntional TV Mom, Jane Kaczmarek (Malcolm in the Middle / Pleasantville)
To be a teenager is hard enough. Hormones raging, identity crises, parents who know NOTHING, but to be a homeless teenager is a scar on all our hearts. Every child, every teen, is our responsibility. We must keep them safe and the earth solid beneath their feet, until they have found their place in this world.— America's most respected TV Mom, Michael Learned (The Waltons)
A shout out to Doors of Change. How wonderful it is to have an organization that offers a light in the dark to guide youth towards self-esteem and self-worth. Your approach to reinforcing positive attitudes and images towards ones self and others is exactly what our youth needs to face and replace the uncertainty and fear they may have of the future.— TV & Film Mom, Dee Wallace (The New Lassie / ET: The Extra-Terrestrial)
At an early age, my parents instilled in me the importance of arts to inspire and enhance our lives. I imagine that your use of art and music programs to connect with homeless youth is exactly why you have been so successful at reaching the thousands of our young who have become lost. May the rest of the country follow your lead, so that we can reach the millions still out there.— America's Most Established TV Mom, June Lockhart (Lassie / Lost In Space)

I add an epilogue to my Anson Williams interview as I kept my promise to him that I would get his book, "Singing to a Bulldog" and read it. I am SO glad I did! Friends I can't recommend it enough. (readily available on Amazon) I know I've said that plenty of times regarding other celeb memoires, but believe me this is something special. I read it in three days and now I am going to read it again. 'Nuff said? He hit it out of the park.
Also I talk about who or what has killed The Golden RAGE of TV YouTube channel. I'm obviously the "who or what". I explain exactly why this 11-year long labor of love is being shall we say, discontinued. Not shut off mind you but, you get it. I also elaborate on my future plans to create fresh and new content (videos) and possibly a whole new brand/channel based on ALL of American nostalgia, including classic films. Stay tuned!

Anson Williams is a legendary talent, most recognized for his portrayal of Potsie Weber on the beloved classic TV series "Happy Days." This iconic actor, director, philanthropist, politician, and entrepreneur joins us to discuss the upcoming celebration of the landmark show’s 50th anniversary!
Anson and I delve into the wonderful aspects surrounding this Garry Marshall-created television masterpiece. We explore how Marshall helped everyone keep their egos in check when it seemed they had become the biggest, most popular phenomenon on the planet.
He asserts that Garry’s guidance and innovative thinking, such as the Happy Days Softball team, played a crucial role in creating lifelong friendships that persist to this day. The ironclad camaraderie forged helped them all secure a permanent place in American Television history.
We also touch upon Anson’s significant creative contributions as a producer and director of various TV series and stage shows, including the highly acclaimed one he’s currently involved in. "Crazy Mama" stars General Hospital’s Carolyn Henesey and is set to debut in 2024!
Be sure to check out the production of "Crazy Mama" when it makes its debut in New York, and hopefully at an off-Broadway venue. Follow Anson at https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=anson%20williams.

Kent McCord is easily among the most recognizable faces from classic television. As Officer Jim Reed on the iconic Adam-12, his heartthrob looks and fine acting ability, ultimately made him a bona fide star and Hollywood legend! We discuss his meaningful friendship with Adam-12 co-star Martin Milner, and the lifelong bond they both enjoyed. Kent's expertise and deep understanding of the innerworkings of the Screen Actors Guild, the former "Vice President" of the Guild itself, shares in-depth how he views the state of the industry, social media, and A.I., all of which are in the forefront of the now "settled" debate/strike.
Enjoy this full hour long fourth season premiere of Retro TV Radio with your host, ME (Pat McCormack)!

Enjoy this interview with the enchanting and talented Dreama Denver. As an actress/activist turned acclaimed author, she was the devoted wife and soul mate of the late Bob Denver, who, as Gilligan, isabsolutely one of the most recognizable faces in television... EVER!
Her award-winning memoir, "Gilligan’s Dreams: The Other Side of the Island," speaks of their lives as independent actors who, once they began to work together, quickly discovered theyhad an undeniable chemistry. This led to a beautiful love story and marriage that lasted until his passing in 2005.
After their only child was diagnosed with severe autism, the two faced this challenge head-on with love and perseverance above and beyond what most people could only dream to achieve!
Dreama has so many in-depth achievements that I couldn't even begin to list them all here! So I invite you to "sit right back and hear the tale" in this wonderful interview. Go to www.BobDenver.com to learn even more about this fascinating, and might I add, extremely compassionate woman.
Special thanks to our mutual "Energizer Bunny" pal, the super-talented Kathy Garver, for helping the two of us to connect!
Watch her Bob-inspired "Four Bears in a Box" video here and be sure to check out the award-winning children’s book series too!

Adam Weissmuller is someone who knows how to tell a tale and keep the legacy of a great man alive! As #TARZAN, his grandfather #JohnnyWeissmuller had, and might I add, still HAS, legions of fans. In my opinion, and that of many others, he was the very best actor to ever portray the Lord of the Jungle! But he was also a multi-dimensional man who was not only a real-life hero but also a great humanitarian. He was also an Olympic champion swimmer who, by the way, never lost a race despite his unconventional swimming style. It was as though the role of Tarzan was tailor-made for the man!Enjoy the fascinating stories from grandson Adam and hear about the combined experience that he and I share! The conversation gets a bit colorful at times, but hey, what do you expect from a couple of old #SantaCruz beach bums!Join my Retro TV Radio/Trivia from the Golden Rage of TV social media community here!https://www.facebook.com/GoldenrageofTVhttps://www.instagram.com/goldenrageoftvRetro TV Trivia/Radio Facebook Fan Page https://www.facebook.com/groups/320349501954269https://twitter.com/GoldenRageofTV1
When you hear the name "Major Margaret Hot-Lips Houlihan," do you think of the original portrayal by Sally Kellerman in the classic big screen version of MASH? Although her performance was very memorable, my guess is that most of us think of the great Loretta Swit, who, throughout MASH's eleven-year run, truly owned the character, helping to shape Margaret into the multi-dimensional head nurse that we all know and sometimes... love to hate!Well, today we are being rejoined by this legendary actress to discuss her work with her charity organization, The Switheart Animal Alliance, and the ways it continues to help transform the lives of people and all our animal friends.Loretta is the portrait of enthusiasm and energy, as you'll hear; she absolutely still loves going to events to meet and greet her many fans at autograph and jewelry maker events, as well as Cameo calls. She creates dazzling artwork, as you'll see in her second printing of her watercolor illustrations book "Switheart," now with a new foreword from Mike Farrell! She also offers her popular women's fragrance, also called Switheart, and her very own jewelry line, each to benefit the animal alliance.Be sure to check out www.switheart.org, which helps raise the needed funds for their important animal alliance work. Loretta is offering the amazing products we discussed there, and you can also keep up to date on all her future personal appearances.Loretta Swit could not be more thrilled or proud of the response to new fragrance, called SwitHeart, in its trademark heart-shaped bottle. Exclusively for SwitHeart Animal Alliance Donors. "I love perfume, and I love creating, so I’m excited to announce my new perfume, SwitHeart," satys Loretta Swit. "Anyone who donates $55 will receive a bottle of SwitHeart, my very own blend of orange flower, jasmine, sandalwood, musk, patchouli and vanilla." SwitHeart perfume is not available in stores – it is only for donors to my SwitHeart Animal Alliance nonprofit!

John Davey is a "super hero". Well, maybe not in real life, but he did play one on TV. In real life however, John is indeed a "super guy" as you will hear in this delightful interview. We cover everything from his days as a pro boxer, his time on SHAZAM as the second "Captain Marvel", what he thought of the new #SHAZAM big screen film versions, to his love for the wild kitties that roam his homestead.
He also tells some entertaining stories of his supporting roles on some of the most classic tv shows ever on the air! We announce his upcoming release of his new novel he titled "A Brotherhood of Broken Noses". Anyone care to go a few rounds?
John is such a classy guy, as you will all realize as you listen to this fun episode. Enjoy my interview with John Davey.
I'd like to express my gratitude to our pal #MichaelGray aka "Billy Batson" aka "TV's Michael Gray", for making this possible and being such a great friend to us both. Your "the best #BillyBatson!"

Legendary actress and singer Tina Cole, also known as Katie Douglas from "My Three Sons," is entertainment royalty. She is the daughter of the famed Yvonne King of The Singing King Sisters and the renowned musician Buddy Cole. She was brought up literally surrounded by some of the biggest stars from the golden age of Hollywood.
In this vivacious interview, we discussed her new memoir titled "My Three Lives." The memoir is a tell-all about Tina's many unique experiences growing up in a famous family and her inside accounts of becoming a super popular part of yet another famous family. As Katie Douglas on "My Three Sons" she was launched her into stardom.
It's no secret that MTS fans adored her, as shown by the vast amounts of fan mail she received. I found her to be effervescent, kind, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, humble. After hearing this, my guess is that you all will have the very same impression.

Hot off his recent cameo appearance in "SHAZAM! Fury of the Gods," Michael Gray has proven himself as a living legend. From his days as a bona fide teen idol with multiple television appearances to landing the iconic role of "Billy Batson" on the Saturday morning kids' classic SHAZAM!, who would have thought that 47 years later Michael would once again be a part of the SHAZAM universe? Maybe the Elders.
Michael and I talk about the fantastic experiences he had on set and developing his great friendship with SHAZAM star Zachary Levi and what that may have led to. We also discuss his dear friends from the original series, including John Davy ("Captain Marvel #2), whom Gray is attending an upcoming event within the SF Bay Area this coming August!
Check out this link for The Bay Area Toy Expo, and if your in the area come meet him and maybe even yours truly as I too plan to attend. https://bayareatoyexpo.com/

Kathy Coleman is one impressive person. Not just her iconic acting, but in all areas of her life. Listen as we go deep on some meaningful subjects of fan relations, life-long friends and collaborators, and of course her AWESOME memoir "Run Holly Run: A Memoir by Holly from 1970s TV Classic Land of the Lost" by Kathy Coleman. Her insights on life are so heartfelt and valuable. She, and her Land of the Lost TV brother, Wesley Eure, have become my dear friends. Kathleen is even the "unofficial" Godmother of my cat "Miss PeekaBoo Jones", who of course we gush over. BTW, "PeekaBoo Jones" was the name of her beloved dog she shared about in her book. The book is among my favorite autobiographies ever. You get it and I'm sure you'll see why!

It should come as no surprise that the real life story of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans is all good! That fact doesn't get left out of Julie Rogers Pomilia's memories not to mention her book, "Your Heroes-My Grandparents a Granddaughter's Love". We discuss some of her fondest memories and just how much her grandparents avoided the trappings of fame, at least mostly. Her stories of how she slowly came to discover their very well downplayed fame are thoroughly entertaining as well as amazing! Enjoy!

Among one of the most recognizable faces from classic television, Marta Kristen of course became a legendary figure in the hearts and minds of the American (later the world) TV viewing public as Judy Robinson from Lost in Space. This heartthrob was "discovered" while eating a hamburger with a boyfriend at a drive-in restaurant in Santa Monica. Producer/Director/Writer James B. Harris approached her and asked if she would like to try out for Lolita. After checking Harris' background, she read for the part.
"My mother thought the role was not for me, so I withdrew," she says. Lolita was made with Jimmy Harris as Producer. Starring James Mason and Shelly Winters, the title role went to Sue Lyon instead. Jimmy Harris can still take credit with starting Marta's career. He made arrangements for Mata to acquire an agent, who immediately got her a feature role in The Loretta Young Show. During the next eighteen months, Marta co-starred in two Alfred Hitchcock Presents episodes (including one directed by Hitchcock himself), two segments of the My Three Sons series with Fred MacMurray (a third one would follow in 1964), a Leave it to Beaver episode and an appearance on the Shirley Temple show.
She had just finished an episode of The Greatest Show on Earth and was filming the role of Lorelei the mermaid in Beach Blanket Bingo when she was called in to meet with Irwin Allen. After meeting Marta, Allen was determined to have her play the role of Judy Robinson in his new series, Space Family Robinson. Marta initially refused the part, fearing (correctly) the character would be underutilized. Allen pitched several potential script ideas for the character, and Marta agreed to the role of Judy Robin in the series, now renamed Lost in Space. The rest is science fiction history.
When the series ended, Marta raised a family and continued to work, making over 40 TV commercials as well as guest starring in TV shows such as Mannix, Remington Steele and Trapper John In 1996, Marta traveled to Korea to film Pearl Buck's The Living Reed with Lee Majors. Marta's first love however, is the theater, in which she has been very active on the West Coast; She receiving kudos for her performance as Emily Stilson in Arthur Kopit's award-winning play about a stroke victim, Wings.
Marta loves to travel, especially in the Far East to trek in the Himalayas, although that has been put on hold while she is helping to raise her granddaughter Lena. She does make time for the occasional convention appearance, and has appeared in such films as Hallmark Hall of Fame's Harvest of Fire with Patty Duke, Body Count with Alyssa Milano and of course, 1998's Lost in Space.
She's a shining example of how life must go on even after the loss of ones spouse/"soulmate". As you'll hear she keeps herself quite busy and for the most part is living a happy and humble life into her later years. Speaking of which watch for the release of her newest film appearance in "A Bachelor's Valentine" coming soon!

Joyce Bulifant is a force of nature! Just the title of her autobiography "My Four Husbands" can tell you that.
She talks about her deepest challenges navigating her prominent Hollywood husbands, which was clearly a task very few people would have signed up for.. Joyce included! But through it all, and I mean some real nightmarish situations, she did all she could to spare her children and step-children from ending up negatively affected by the horrible excesses brought on by her famous spouses, and often at the cost of her own career!
Yet she still made her mark spanning the stage and big and small screens. Her bubbly personality gave audiences joy, or should I say "Joyce" for decades. A regular on The Mary Tyler Moore Show and iconic game shows such as Password and Match Game, she tells us many fun inside stories. Some were not so fun also as you'll hear.
Go to: https://joycebulifant.com/about/ and get your copy of "My Four Husbands" which is also available on Amazon.
In Joyce's own words; "The book offers anyone caught in the web of addiction inspiration to detach and go on with his or her life. "First one must learn. Perhaps mistakes will follow. But if one keeps learning and trying, there can be a happy ending."

Wally Kurth is a high profile actor on classic daytime soap operas. For over three decades and up to this very day he's been holding down his prestigious roles on General Hospital as "Ned Quartermaine" and Days of Our Lives as "Justin Kiriakis". Having forged these classic characters aside, to me, Wally also sings easily as great as he acts and quite often combines the two on the shows. Case in point, his GH alter-ego rock star character from the '90s, "Eddie Maine and the Idol Rich". I was actually a member of the Idol Rich. Not to confuse matters even more, we were actually called "Kurth & Taylor" as in Wally Kurth and Christian Taylor in the real world. For more than a decade this Emmy Award winning musical venture played all over the country and released multiple albums while raising many thousands of dollars for various children's charities. For me, it was an unforgettable experience! As easily one of the most recognizable faces on television, hear this fascinating tale about Wally's humble beginnings in Billings Montana, to almost instantly having his name in lights on Broadway!! Yes, we cover some ground here which is great because Wally is a great story teller not to mention being one of the most beloved actors amongst his daytime peers. Trust me. Everyone LOVES Waldo! Speaking of which, Wally's newest musical venture with his quartet The Day Players are out performing. They are a hybrid of Days and GH leading men who all can belt out a tune! Go to their website: http://www.thedayplayersband.com for upcoming appearances near you!

It's interviews with some of our favorite classic tv celebrities as my guests! Go to: https://anchor.fm/pat-mccormack4You'll also find it available on the #spotify #applepodcasts #googleplay #anchor and #amazonmusic podcast platforms.
Here's the story. My pal and previous podcast guest Kathy Garver put me in touch with her friend and former co-star #ChristopherKnight to join us on the Retro TV Radio, and needless to say they both came through. These friends are wonderful not just because of all the years of sheer entertainment they've given to all of us, but by the fact that they are SO down to earth, friendly, and supportive. I must add that Chris's lovely wife Cara was also extremely helpful with making this happen!
The iconic actor talks with me about that classic show and role that made him famous of course, but we also discuss his newest entertainment venture with fellow Brady Bunch co-star Barry Williams. It's called #TheRealBradyBros podcast which I HIGHLY recommend! For the record, I am a bona-fide fan and honestly haven't missed an episode. The two "bros" dissect every episode (in no particular order) based on their recollections of making them. Meanwhile they see and learn things that they weren't fully aware of during the time, many times adding new meaning and definition to the series episodes for themselves and the fans. Yep a thoroughly entertaining Brady Bunch deep dive! If you or anyone you know was or is a Brady Bunch fan, you really should tune in and subscribe to the Real Brady Bros. podcast. You'll find it on all your favorite platforms.
Chris and I also touch on his side projects/careers and entrepreneurial ventures. He candidly tells us how he made his attention deficit disorder actually work FOR him within various tech industries. Chris's creativity and ingenuity which I've come to learn is shared by his lovely wife Cara is evidenced by their incredible product line at Christopher Knight Homes.

Ruta Lee "IS" Hollywood. From Classic to Contemporary. Currently, Ms. Lee has published her best selling memoirs (#2 on Amazon) with Briton Publishing, titled “Consider Your Ass Kissed.” A treasure trove of wonderful stories, anecdotes with rare first hand and authentic memories of the entertainment industry that she shares with us! Only a chosen few though. I have read it and I love it! Just the many pictures alone are worth every penny. In addition to her recent memoirs, Ruta (Chairman Emitirus of the Thalians with former colleague Debbie Reynolds) is bringing awareness to the need to take mental illness seriously. Their theme at this years event (Dec 3rd at The Hollywood Museum honoring Dr Phil and Robin McGraw) is “Hollywood for Mental Health” for over a half century; currently devoted to helping UCLA Operation Mend’s brave military men and women heal the wounds of war. Especially in a post pandemic world, when depression is at an all time high as millions of people in the U.S. are affected by mental illness each year. Currently projected at 1 out of every 5 people are affected or effected by mental illness. It’s important to measure how common mental illness is, so we can understand its physical, social and financial impact — and so we can show that no one is alone. These numbers are also powerful tools for raising public awareness, stigma-busting and advocating for better health care. Thalians helps those not only in body, but mind and spirit as well.
Pick up your copy of Ruta's memoire "Consider Your Ass Kissed" here: https://www.amazon.com/Consider-Your-Ass-Kissed-Ruta/dp/1735383449
I just finished it and thus I can HIGHLY recommend it!

We also talk about some of his treasured personal encounters with the likes of Sammy Davis Jr., Jerry Lewis, Robert Redford, Audrey Hepburn and others! We touch on Hank's love of martial arts, standup comedy, professional wrestling, and his amazing friends and family. As a true rags to riches from the school of hard knocks kid, to an award winning actor, Pro-Wrestling and Martial Arts Hall of Famer and gifted philanthropist, Hank truly has as I previously stated, indeed led an incredible life!

Barry Livingston joins me to talk about his illustrious and lengthy career working alongside some of biggest names in the business. Elvis, William Frawley, Paul Newman, and Jerry Lewis are just a few of the folks we discuss in this interview. To this day Barry is still pumping out high-quality performances. Case in point his role in the new Mixed Martial Arts Docudrama "Notorious Nick". It's the story of Nick Newell, young man who was born with one arm and a big dream. Based on the true story Nick Newell and how he overcome his disability and a world of naysayers, to win an MMA championship in 2012.
Heading the cast is Cody Christian (Teen Wolf, Mom, All American on the CW) as Nick Newell; Elisabeth Rohm (Law & Order) as Nick's mom; Kevin Pollak (The Marvelous Ms. Maisel) as Nick's promoter: And starring iconic veteran actor, Barry Livingston (My Three Sons, Mad Men, The Social Network) as Nick's high school coach and MMA trainer.
A true Hollywood survivor, Barry Livingston is one of the former child stars who turned early success into a lifelong career. Perhaps best recognized from his 8 years on the 12 year hit series “My Three Sons” and most recently for his roles on Mad Men or The Social Network, Barry Livingston has wisely managed to re-invent himself over the years. In the now iconic role of Ernie Douglas, he practically defined the prototype of the word nerd (buck teeth, horn-rimmed glasses and all), to survive the stereotypes, the dangers of sex, depression and drugs that seem to plague former child stars to become one of Hollywood's most respected, working actors and the quintessential family man.
Other work includes early hits such as Here's Lucy, Ozzie & Harriett, as well as contemporary series including Two and Half Men, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Monk, Big Love, Crossing Jordan, Will and Grace, the West Wing, Warner Brothers Argo (directed by and starring Ben Affleck), the highly rated series, Castle. In addition, appeared in the ABC sitcom, Suburgatory, and the Hallmark Channel movie, Loves' Christmas Journey, as well as the Killer Role (literally) in Hostel 3. His memoirs (The Importance of Being Ernie/) appeared on many best-sellers lists including Amazon.

**Coinciding With The 50th Anniversary of The Hit Series, The Waltons
One of TV's Most Respected Moms, Michael Learned (Olivia Walton)
Is Now Starring in a Lead Role of The New Ryan Murphy Netflix Series**
In the new Netflix series Dahmer, Michael gives a riveting performance as Jeffery's grandmother Cathrine! We discuss just how much she loved working with the super-talented Evan Peters in the lead role. And yes, the story line creeped her out. No surprise there.
Meanwhile The Waltons is turning 50! Michael reminisces about her role as one of TV's most beloved mothers Olivia Walton. Her performances won her 3 out of the 4 Best Actress Emmys on her mantle. We also talk about the short lived series which earned her a 4th win, "Nurse".
She was an absolute joy to speak with as you'll hear. I can best describe her as down to earth, effervescent, and clearly still in love with her craft, of which she has proven herself to be an absolute master.
Prior to Covid, Michael Learned received Best Actress Award at SOHO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL and Best Actress at the Hollywood Womens Film Festival for SECOND ACTS. Learned was then Honored at the Las Vegas MegaFest International Film Festival with a Lifetime Achievement Award following a screening of the film earlier this year. The Covid Pandemic caused a delay in its distribution..
SECOND ACTS airs on Direct TV's dedicated short film channel called Shorts HD from a company called Shorts TV (https://shorts.tv/en/). ShortsTV is the global home of short movies, with the world's largest catalogue of high quality short movies available on TV, online and in theaters, and also produce original short film content for broadcasters and brands.

In this episode I reconnect with my friend "TV's Michael Gray"! We pick up from our YouTube Live-Stream conversation we had a few months back on my Golden RAGE of TV channel. Here's the link: https://youtu.be/sBkyWdN091A
Michael is a warm and humble individual who shares his innermost experiences as both a teen-idol and classic TV actor who happened to work with some of the biggest names in show business! You'll love his loving and entertaining stories about being a teen-idol and how it both worked for him and against him. Hear about his interactions with the great Les Tremayne, Burt Reynolds, Brian Keith, and Jerry Lewis, not to mention a near miss with The Beatles!! We also get into how by chance he fell into some repeated appearances on the critically acclaimed Adult Swim series "Archer". As "TV's Michael Gray"! He's honored me with a new moniker btw. I am now "Podacast's Pat McCormack" thank you very much! But don't believe for a second that we don't discuss his signature role as Billy Batson on Shazam! Enjoy!
We both want to thank our mutual friend Barry King from "B.K. on the Air" for helping to forge this friendship! Catch BK on the Air every Saturday with your TuneIn app. Search WBHF radio from 10am to noon (Eastern) ...you WILL be entertained!

Most remember Jon Provost as the loving child-owner of classic television's Lassie. But did you know his career began earlier than this 1957 role when he starred in a couple major motion pictures with some of the biggest Hollywood stars ever? We talk about what he can remember from those days. Although some of his memories are foggy, obviously due to his extremely young age (4 years old). But what he does remember is extremely interesting!
We also discuss his days on Lassie, and working with his lifelong friend the legendary June Lockhart. Jon shares his memories playing "Timmy Martin" and working with his canine co-star(s). The conversation leads into his career(s) after leaving show business, but not before we touch on his co-starring as "Bradley" alongside one Kurt Russell in the Disney classic film The Computer Wore Tennis shoes. Enjoy!
