Fred Westbrook will be guesting tonight from 9-10 PM PDT. We'll talk
Game Shows and take your questions at 800-811-3988. I will tell, if
asked, why I am not a fan of Chuck Barris and also how Jackpot was
ruined by Lin Bolen. And maybe you will stump Fred.

On the web at www.radiotonight.com

Anyone have a list of stations (Pennsylvania) that air the show? The link
on the website comes up as "available soon"

Hi ,
within two weeks RealAudio will live stream it directly from the
satellite. what is happening is our server is getting full and thus
you get that message, but soon there will be unlimited room for all.

thanks for trying and y'all come back!

Sooooo....Why is Geoff not a Barris fan and how did the infamous Lin
Bolen ruin "Jackpot!" I missed the show.... :(

So did I, but anyway...

1. Judging by his comments on some other web sites, it seems Geoff thought
Chuck was becoming a little too cruel with the contestants. Example: he
planned to give away *parts* of cars if the show had come back in 1977 -- like
the windshield.
2. Read Steve Beverly's column on Jackpot in his archives. After a dip in the
ratings, Bolen decided to get rid of the Jackpot riddles and use Hollywood
Squares-type questions instead. They figured out it wouldn't work about
halfway through the first show in the new format.

that undoubtedly sounds like Vintage Barris:) I don't know why but Chuck made
some of the most entertaining shows ever....I mean who can't remember classics
like The Gong show or the Newlywed game THAT MAN IS A GENIUS IMHO!

Jackpot with the riddles is about as good as seeing Julia Child in a itsy bitsy
teenie weenie yellow polka dot bikini!

Anyone know if it's going to pick up more stations in the near
future? I live in Toronto and would love to hear it...I can also
pick up radio stations from Buffalo if it's going to air there.
I can't get it off my computer because I only access this stuff
from work and we don't have capabilities.

Anyone know of any plans for more stations in the future?

For those who attended GSC'(9)8 in Cleveland 2 years ago, Geoff had
addressed both of those questions somewhat when he was one of our
phone-in guests.

Is Geoff's show being carried on any Cleveland radio stations? My mom is
really computer illiterate and I can't explain the Real player over the
phone to her, so she wanted me to ask the Clevelanders in the group.
