04/15 Lou Ferrigno, The Incredible Hulk, The Hollywood Show, Wayne Tucker, Bio S.I. Technology

An internationally famous and well respected bodybuilder / actor, Lou Ferrigno first appeared on TV screens in 1977 as the musclebound "The Incredible Hulk" (1978), the alter ego of meek scientist Bruce Banner. Ferrigno was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1951 and as a child suffered from an ear infection that resulted in permanent partial hearing loss. Undeterred by what some may have perceived as a disadvantage, Lou threw himself into athletics (predominantly weightlifting and body building) and at the age of 21 won his first Mr. Universe title. For good measure, he came back and won it again the following year!

He also played professional football in the Canadian Football League, before coming to the attention of producer Kenneth Johnson, who was seeking just the right person to portray on screen the comic book superhero, The Incredible Hulk. With his 6' 5", 285 lb. frame, Lou was the biggest professional bodybuilder of the time, and had recently starred in the documentary Pumping Iron (1977), about the 1975 Mr. Olympia contest in South Africa. He successfully auditioned for the part of the green-skinned Goliath, and that is the role with which he is most closely identified.

"The Hulk" was a huge ratings success and spawned several telemovies after the initial TV series completed its run. Lou continued to remain busy in films and TV with appearances often centered around his remarkable physique. His films included Hercules (1983), Sinbad of the Seven Seas (1989) and Frogtown II (1992). Lou has additionally guest-starred on several TV shows including "The Fall Guy" (1981) and "The New Mike Hammer" (1984) and had a recurring role on "The King of Queens" (1998). In 1997 he was featured in the dynamic documentary about his sensational return to professional bodybuilding at age 43, Stand Tall (1997). The film detailed how he returned to compete in the Masters category of the Mr. Olympia contest against several familiar bodybuilding foes. In more recent years, he has appeared in several films, including The Misery Brothers (1995), Ping! (2000), From Heaven to Hell (2002) and a cameo as a security guard in the big-budget remake of Hulk (2003).

Big Lou is also a successful author with two books detailing his bodybuilding knowledge, and his life behind the scenes playing the Incredible Hulk on TV in the 1970s, plus he has a popular website frequented by his many fans worldwide.

04/05 Sweet Dick Whittington

Sweet Dick Whittington (born 1934) is a long-time disc jockey in Los Angeles,[1] who has also appeared as an actor in movies and on television.

Prior to his arrival in Southern California, Whittington was a popular radio personality in the San Francisco Bay area at Oakland's KROW (960 AM), where he hosted the "Night Watchman" overnight program, and, later, a weekday afternoon show, from 1955 to 1958. In the fall of 1958, he moved to KSFO (560 AM) in San Francisco, as host of the 9 p.m. to midnight program. He began his stint in Los Angeles at KABC 790 AM, doing a one-hour talk show weekdays and a 3-hour Sunday talk show from 1965-1969. In 1969, he moved to KGIL.

His greatest fame in the Los Angeles market was in the morning drive time slot at KGIL AM 1260 in the "Sin Fernando Valley". For a brief time, he left KGIL to do the evening drive time slot at KFI AM 640. He also was briefly heard in the late 1980s on KIEV (870 AM) and, for a few months in 1989, was back at KABC AM. (see list below). According to the entry in www.laradio.com, he has retired and is writing a novel.

Many people regard his broadcast style as being ahead of its time. Rather than the "happy morning to you" type of radio personality, he often spoke on the air about things that bothered him and foreshadowed the Howard Stern era of speaking your mind. At stations where he was still spinning records, he would many times interrupt a song midway through saying, "I like it up to that point, then I get bored."

One of Whittington's notable film roles was as the disc jockey in the TV movie "Duel", Steven Spielberg's directorial debut. He can also be seen briefly as a ring announcer in Martin Scorsese's "Raging Bull."

He now lives in the San Luis Obispo area and is the image voice for radio station KKJL-AM (adult standards).

03/29 Eric Roberts, Revolution Road, David Hull, Mandy Armstrong

Actor Eric Roberts joins the show to talk about his upcoming role in the film,  Revolution Road!

In a small, West Texas town, a mild-mannered traveling salesman, Josh McManus, (David A. R. White) stops at a roadside convenience store.  During the middle of Josh’s sales pitch, the owner Frank (Ray Wise) asks him three questions: “Are you a family man?” “Do you believe in God?” and “What would you put your faith in to save your family?”

In the middle of their discussion a brutal biker gang, “The Barbarians,” arrive to rob the store with orders to leave no witnesses.  Josh stops the robbery and eliminates several gang members. Though he earns the respect of the locals, Josh avoids any questions about his self-defense training.
To show his appreciation for saving his life, the store owner invites Josh over for lunch with his family. During their conversation, Ray questions Josh about his faith, something that Josh is reluctant to discuss. It’s evident Josh is haunted by his secret past and wrestles with his search for faith.  The leader of the biker gang, the powerful and enigmatic Hawg (Brian Bosworth) vows revenge on Josh and all who have dared to cross him.

As the country is in a war with Iran, the stage is set for a titanic duel as the world hurtles towards the biblical time of prophesy, the Rapture. Josh wants is to forget his past, escape his present and get back to his wife and daughter but he'll have to fight his way through the Barbarians to do so.  Will he make it in time?  It will be a dangerous journey to the very center of his soul.  Time is running out.  The end is coming.
