In the 1970s, Gregory Harrison went east to Hollywood. The son of Catalina Island's glass bottom boat captain, Gregory began dreaming of a career in acting when a Doris Day movie was filmed on and named after his father's Glass Bottom Boat. Now 120 IMDB credits into his career, Gregory joins us for a debriefing.After serving as an Army medic during the Viet Nam War, Gregory's guest star appearance on MASH in 1976 foreshadowed his earning the role of Gonzo Gates on Trapper John MD in 1979, which was around the time Trapper began to look more like Pernell Roberts than Wayne Rogers. Gregory starred in the TV version of Logan's Run, a role that required a lot of running, which trained him for an appearance on Battle of the Network Stars where he met his future wife, Randi Oaks (competing for a rival network.) He's most proud of his role in Centennial, the epic mini-series based on the James Michener novel. A TV event so beloved that fan gatherings are held today where enthusiasts can tour the original sets!Gregory just completed a three and a half year run on General Hospital, his first soap, on which he got to guest star with his daughter, Lily Anne Harrison. Hallmark fans know him as Joe O'Toole on the Signed, Sealed and Delivered movie series. And a fun fact is that the 8x10 glossy that Gregory is most often asked to sign is a shirtless pose from the TV movie, For Ladies Only, in which a struggling actor makes ends meet by stripping. Who, amongst us with a rock hard body doesn't relate?Also joining us is journalist and former White House correspondent Brian Karen. Brian is directing a documentary titled Trump: The First 100 Days. (It's a horror movie.) His new book is called Free The Press and his upcoming event at The Comedy Chateau in North Hollywood on February 27th is Free Speech and Comedy with special guests Tom Arnold and Hal Sparks.In Recommendations —Fritz: Sly Lives!

h/t Jimmy Kimmel for turning "Dumpster Fire," which Driftglass actually coined on his blog, into "Dumpster Fuhrer."  Bible Bitch has a very special "thou shalt not" for the Trump campaign.  And Driftglass compares Harris at the Elipse with Lincoln at Gettysburg.  And it fits.  We're off next Tuesday, Election Day, but we will appear on the Hal Sparks program on YouTube that day.

We're taking a page from Why Are You Laughing as we research the history of the falling out between Howard Stern and Stuttering John Melendez. John left for the Tonight Show but that's not why Howard now dislikes John. Because he can't help it, John bashed Howard when he was on Adam Carolla's show for being cheap. It was completely unnecessary but Stuttering John's motto is ABB - always be bashing. As we see, this is a pattern in John's life as Hal Sparks can tell you. Andy Q. Public and I are down in our WATP South studio to break down how Fred, Ralph, Tim Sabean, Robin, and Gary really feel about John. Turns out John was the original “dues payer.” After that we have some music from Jerry Banfield and two amazing submissions for our holiday song parody contest. Then Missy B joins the show to discuss the most interesting day ever in the Dabbleverse. Opie was going to go on Point Dabblepoint to lay into Stuttering John but then he completely Opie'd it up. Opie could have actually had an audience but he refuses to go on PDP or MLC and would rather broadcast on his channel to 70 people. This could have been a Dabbleverse redemption for Opie but he failed miserably. Also, Stuttering John made up a weird story about Anthony Cumia calling him and we have have Ant's response to that.  https://www.instagram.com/allapologiespodcast https://onlyfans.com/maribethrosie  Support us, get bonus episodes, Vic and Hannah pics, and watch live every Saturday and most Wednesdays: http://bit.ly/watp-patreon https://watp.supercast.tech/  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we're reviewing a show with super edgy guy talk! From the transfer portal in college football to Amazon Fresh promo codes, these guys are just like hanging out with your group of friends. Assuming, of course, that your friends are all losers, completely unfunny, and the most annoying people on the planet. Doug from Who's Right is responsible for all of this so send the hate mail his way! Earl David Reed makes his WATP debut and was not happy about having to listen to Shut Up Cincinnati. The homework assignment is always the worst part of the show. After that we have some additional entries into the holiday song parody contest, Patrick Michael explains why he calls me Roy, and Stuttering John spends his Thanksgiving yelling at Hal Sparks and threatening to go after my family.

John's monologue today is a mixed bag: Jim Jordan has lost the vote again to become speaker of the House, President Biden has given an address to the nation asking congress to approve support for Israel and Ukraine, and Georgia RICO co-defendants Sidney "The Kraken" Powell and Ken "The Cheese" Chesebro have now pleaded guilty and will testify against Trump in the upcoming trial. Then, he welcomes back journalist Simon Moya-Smith and activist Julie Francella. They talk about the new film “Killers of the Flower Moon”, the Israel-Hamas War, and the mainstream representation of Native Peoples. Next, John speaks with attorney Marie in Atlanta on the recent plea agreements in the Georgia RICO case. And finally, John chats with comedian Hal Sparks on the House without a speakership, the Trump scandals, and their appearance in L.A. at The Stephanie Miller Sexy Liberal Comedy Show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
