What a great voice.

He does sound somewhat subdued. If he had felt free to let some of that Newlywed Game personality come out, wow. But maybe that would have been too much of a threat. Not sure why he wasn't an even bigger star, though I guess there were only so many pathways for a DJ.

I recall hearing this show back in 1983 and thought Bob sounded lethargic and wrote a letter saying so to Watermark. Imagine my surprise when I got a response defending Bob , saying that his son (a stuntman) had been recently injured and that was on Bob's mind while he was taping this show.

Love the 4/16/83 show and Eubanks...but it wasn't the best fit. 1/9/82 better, but not the 4/16/83 show. Still have nightmares about the Gloomy Sunday piece.
