ZOU BISOU BISOU TO YOU, TOO

For those of you who watched Megan serenade Don on "Mad Men" tonight, here's the original by Gillian Hills:

"Zou Bisou Bisou," by the way, not "Zooby Zooby Zoo." Very French-like.

HERE I AM AGAIN

It's been an interesting few months.

I've been a little -- no, a LOT busy with my day jobs. Both All Access and Nerdist are going extremely well, but my responsibilities for both have left practically no time to do anything here. Hence, the silence. And then, unbeknownst to me because I never got a notice and I don't remember everything, this domain briefly expired. But when I discovered that, I took care of it. And now, we're back.

So, let's throw up a little thing I found in the interim, circa 1966, ad artwork from the legendary Jack Davis with the lineup of proto-talk station WNBC New York, featuring Brad Crandall, Big Wilson, Bill Mazer, Edith Walton, and Mimi Benzell. That was a different kind of talk radio, to be sure. I remember listening to Crandall, Wilson, and Mazer; only Mazer's still with us, at 92 years old, having been on radio and TV in New York forever and giving us "Sports Extra," which for sports fans in the New York area in the 1970s was must-watch TV every Sunday night in the pre-ESPN era.

Okay, see? Back. I won't be posting every day like the old days, but I WILL be posting. An eight-year habit's hard to break. In the meantime, there's also Twitter, All Access, and Nerdist, too.
