Hey!! It's Allen and Donna Stare! Welcome back to another episode of the "WKRP-Cast."  We've watched another episode of "WKRP in Cincinnati" to the extreme!! This week, we break down "Pilot Part 2". Andy has been at the station for two weeks. He wants to promote the change to Rock-n-Roll. Mr. Carlson won't give him the money. Disgruntled listeners stage a protest in the station. We meet great one-off characters this time like "Buzzy Milker", "Mrs. Burstyn" and "Wayne R. Coe." Of course there's a "Herb Tarlek Fashion Alert" and we've got a new feature: "The Committee Connection."  We also indulge a little "no more mama" conspiracy theory regarding a very weird scene in this episode (you can help solve the mystery!). And...where were they playing bingo again? (we're still not sure...) Fellow babies, the WKRP-Cast is on the air...grab your brains and don't miss it!!

[Want to watch along with us? It's a blast!! We highly recommend the 'Shout Factory' boxed DVD set of the entire WKRP series. For reasons you'll have to listen to in the "Prolog"  episode, all streaming versions of the original "WKRP in Cincinnati" have had the original music cues removed. It was a bloodbath. Generic music beds and stings were used in place of the original music for the syndicated version of the series. 'Shout Factory' has been able to restore an estimated 85% of all WKRP music cues to the original "as-aired" content for their DVD release. They've also restored scenes that had been cut to shorten episodes for syndication. The original eps ran 25 minutes. The syndication eps were shortened to 22 minutes. Over 88 episodes that's more than four hours of lost content, including the performance by "Detective" at the end of "Hoodlum Rock." Get the COMPLETE series...get the Shout Factory DVDs. The Shout Factory complete series box has a release date of 2014. All individual seasons of Shout Factory disks were released starting in 2015.] 

Hey Fellow Babies!! We talked to Gary Sandy. Don't miss our exclusive interview with Andy Travis now available from the WKRP-Cast. Wherever you get your podcasts.
