Back when I was a kid, there was Channel 8, Tulsa's KTUL. Channel 8 embraced the concept of local content for working stiffs, housewives, kids, lovers of moster movies...you get the idea.The news anchors and characters on these local shows were out in the small towns in their viewing area, in parades,at county fairs, whereever a crowd might gather. It built a strong between the station and its viewers. It was about as interactive as broadcast television could be The executives in the corner offices have decided to shutter the once lively studios and offices of KTUL, to operate the station remotely from Oklahoma City. A sign of the times, but there are still lessons to learn from the heyday of KTUL.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Susan Silver, Author, “Hot Pants in Hollywood: Sex, Secrets and Sitcoms” About Harvey's guest: Today's guest, Susan Silver, is a show business trailblazer. She was one of the first women to have a successful career as a television comedy writer, in an industry overwhelmingly dominated by men. Back in the late 60s', and despite being the youngest runner up for a prestigious Writers Guild Award for a script she'd written in graduate school, the only open door for a female writer in Hollywood was as a secretary. She worked her way up to be producer of a TV show starring comedian Mort Sahl, and then got hired as a casting director on the groundbreaking TV show, “Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In”. When the show's producer, George Schlatter, refused to allow a woman to join his writing team – offering her a job as a writer's assistant instead - she pivoted into the world of TV sitcoms, and never looked back. She wrote for some of the most iconic shows of all time, including The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, Maude, The Partridge Family, The New Dick Van Dyke Show, Square Pegs, and many more. In fact, our guest wrote the episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show called “The Square Shaped Room”, which won Ed Asner an Emmy Award. She also wrote TV movies including “The Couple Takes a Wife” starring Paula Prentiss and Bill Bixby, and “The Girl Who Came Gift Wrapped”, starring Karen Valentine and Farrah Fawcett. She's one of the founding members of “Women in Film”, and she's taught comedy writing at the Television Academy, and lectured at the Paley Center, and at numerous universities. She's appeared on TV many times, on CNN, HLN and The Today Show to name only a few. She's had her own weekly radio commentary on Robin Hood Radio called “Susan Says”. And she's written op-ed columns for The New York Times – AND for 4 years she wrote a highly entertaining column about dating, called “The Search For Mr. Adequate”, on NEW YORK SOCIAL DIARY DOT COM. And FINALY, in 2017, she released her brilliant, hilarious, sometimes salacious, and very insightful memoir entitled, “Hot Pants in Hollywood: Sex, Secrets and Sitcoms”. This book was such an enjoyable read, that I hated to get to the last page. And let me tell you: the episode describing a highly unusual medical “event” resulting from a particularly satisfying encounter with a vibrator, is most definitely worth TEN TIMES the price of the book.

Layne Thomas Staley (born Layne Rutherford Staley; August 22, 1967 – April 5, 2002)[2][3] was an American singer and songwriter who was the original lead vocalist of the rock band Alice in Chains, which rose to international fame in the early 1990s as part of Seattle's grunge movement. He was known for his distinctive vocal style and tenor voice, as well as his harmonizing with guitarist/vocalist Jerry Cantrell. Staley was also a member of the glam metal bands Sleze and Alice N' Chains, and the supergroups Mad Season and Class of '99. On April 19, 2002, Staley's accountants contacted his former manager, Susan Silver, and informed her that no money had been withdrawn from the singer's bank account in two weeks. Silver then contacted Staley's mother, Nancy McCallum, who placed a call with 911 to say she had not heard from him "in about two weeks".[92] #Laynestaley#Aliceinchains #mtv #podcast #1990's #death #music #podcast #grunge #nirvana #soundgarden #pearljam #laynestaley #rock #kurtcobain #jerrycantrell #s #seattle #music #davegrohl #chriscornell #foofighters #seankinney #kristnovoselic #eddievedder #mikestarr #guitar #rocknroll #nevermind #inutero #mikeinez #punk #seattlesound #nirvanafans #aic #sgrunge #metal --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daniel-hudson9/message

What an honor to receive Kevin Martin from Candlebox on our podcast! I mean, I can't even start to tell you how big of a deal it is for someone who considers himself a spiritual kid from the Seattle scene. Along with Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, Green River, Mudhoney, Sweetwater, and Tad, just to name a few, Candlebox and Kevin Martin helped The Seattle Music Scene make itself a good place in the Rock history books. I'm not sure Grunge is an actual cohesive genre but was is certain is that something happened around Seattle and it all started in the '80s. Many factors contributed to help this scene arise but two things are worth noting. First, Kevin helped us understand it was very much like a high school scene, with all the bands of the area playing with each other. Also, the legendary label Subpop helped by throwing shows all around town and inviting lots of bands, even if they were not on the roster of the label. It meant that all the bands were performing all the time basically. Soon enough, a few bands became huge and they helped the other bands get some of the limelight. Kevin was a first-hand witness of this wonderful revolution and he was working at a shoe store when the Seattle sound exploded to the face of the world. That's where he met Susan Silver who was managing Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, and the Screaming Trees. Behind part of the second waves of Seattle bands that exploded almost became a burden, but nevertheless, Candlebox managed to conquer the charts after being the first band to sign with Mavericks records. A couple of albums later, Kevin was upset with the mainstream world and reclaimed his independence. He's been writing new songs and touring ever since. Last year, Candlebox released the brilliant album « Wolves » and a beautiful acoustic version of « Riptide », recorded at Blackbox studios in Nashville. Kevin Martin takes us on a trip and helps us answer a crucial question we've been asking ourselves since the beginning of this podcast. Applying everything we know about the birth of the Seattle scene, how can we apply some of it to help emerge a new scene today, right here in LA and right now. Part of the answer seems to be to organize shows and make every event special and exciting. That's how we'll get the people back in the sweaty clubs. www.hangingonsunset.com https://www.hangingonsunset.com/podcast https://www.candleboxrocks.com/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hangingonsunset/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/hangingonsunset/support
