Greetings. I appear to have somewhat underestimated the number of
<i>Rocky and Bullwinkle</i> fans out there. As an aside in a message
to Dave Farber's <i>IP</i> mailing list, I recently mentioned the
availability of a recording of the guests from my <i>Jay Ward Film
Festival</i> at UCLA back in 1982.
This included a live R&B script reading by Bill Scott (Bullwinkle,
etc.), June Foray (Rocky, etc.) and other guests. This was followed by
a fascinating Q&A session in which they explored not only their own
shows in depth, but also the past and "future" of television more
generally -- and many of their predictions have now come to pass.
After I sent that message, everything was relatively quiet for a couple
of days, but word has been spreading, and now the number of people
listening to that almost hour-long recording (which I've had online
with no fanfare for almost ten years!) is suddenly a hot item and
keeping ye old Internet pipe pretty solidly filled at the moment.
But the more the merrier, so if you're interested in the classic
animation works of Jay Ward, and <i>Rocky and Bullwinkle</i> in
particular, you can easily burn an enjoyable and informative hour over
at:

It's an event that I remember most fondly.
