A little bit.
07.12.2025 03:34 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The only time I ever got all gaga like that was when I called Bradley Bolke the first time. He answered with his Chumley voice and it threw me off so hard, I could barely speak.
02.12.2025 02:26 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yes. Buck Biggers, Joe Harris, Chet Stover, Tread Covington, Roman Arambula, Bradley Bolke, Allen Swift, and a few others.
30.11.2025 19:55 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I'd have to look at the book again, but I know I interviewed Art Leonardi, Barbara Donatello, Sybil Freleng Bergman, Hope Freleng Shaw, Joe Siracusa, Bob Givens and quite a few others.
26.11.2025 22:18 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I would try to avoid asking him the same questions that Dr. Demento did.
23.11.2025 02:23 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I would have asked Hawley about the creation of The Pink Panther. No one ever interviewed him professionally in his lifetime. Don Adams, I would ask about Tennessee Tuxedo, and probably go over his entire career.
20.11.2025 02:27 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I don't really pay too much attention to it. I still see Disney and Pixar films and some others when I can, but since I don't have to see EVERYTHING like Jerry Beck, I don't. I'd rather watch mainly older cartoons. The only current cartoon I still watch is South Park, but not because it's a cartoon.
19.11.2025 01:42 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0For TTV, it would have been Don Adams. For Dennis the Menace, Hank Ketcham and Al Wiseman and Fred Toole. For Cracked, Charles Rodriguez. For DePatie-Freleng, Hawley Pratt. For MAD, Harvey Kurtzman and Bill Gaines. I always try to ask questions not everyone else would ask.
18.11.2025 01:40 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I met him in the 90s at an art gallery. He was very soft spoken, probably because he was also very old.
16.11.2025 03:48 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I don't know. I did meet him once. Probably stuff other people asked him.
12.11.2025 23:33 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I forgot that DFE did the Planet of the Apes cartoons. I thought it was Hanna-Barbera.
11.11.2025 00:31 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yes, for every book. I tried, but was not able to interview Ross.
07.11.2025 16:01 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0I don't know about shocked, but I am always happy to discover a bit of history that has never been uncovered before in any of my books.
04.11.2025 23:22 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0My friends and co-authors Michael A. Ventrella and Charles F. Rosenay!!!, and myself are in this all-new Monkees Special from Goldmine magazine.
26.08.2025 00:44 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The same!
19.08.2025 06:05 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Bluesky is failing because it needs to be a better Facebook, not a better X (Twitter).
12.06.2025 15:42 β π 6 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Ah, we missed the opportunity!
08.05.2025 23:18 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0We got a little 'ole Conclave
We'll put smoke through the pipe
Yeah, we got a little 'ole Conclave
We'll tell you when the time is ripe
C'mon and watch our Conclave
Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
We gonna roll this truckin' Conclave
To pick a new Pope today
Conclave
Conclave
Everyone needs to ignore and rebel against him and not follow anything he "signs into law", and a push needs to be made to deport and ignore the unelected co-President.
30.03.2025 07:17 β π 5 π 1 π¬ 1 π 0I'd rather watch this one again....
22.03.2025 06:08 β π 7 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The TRUTH about MAD:
1. It is STILL being published.
2. It is now featuring at least 14 ALL-NEW pages every issue.
3. It is STILL $5.99 an issue, the same price it has been since 2009.
4. It IS available through subscription and maybe comic book stores. (The Diamond bankruptcy may affect this.)
