\"This is Burton Richardson, speaking for The Price is Right\" -- it just doesn't sound right

Rod Roddy has had prostate cancer for several months now. Burton Richardson and Randy West has been subbing for him on occassion. It looks like Rod is back for a while.

Isn't it colon cancer?

Season 31 ended last Wednesday; They stuck in a repeat of the Michael episode last Thursday; Last Friday's and this week's episodes are new ones that were pre-empted a while back.

Oh, and be sure to watch this Friday's episode.  ;-)

Rod had colon cancer which he had surgery and treatment for.  According to CBS.com, Rod was out this past time due to prostate surgery, but I think it may have been unreleated to the colon cancer.

And these episodes are some that are not reruns, but were taped earlier in the season and never made it to air (completely, anyway) due to war coverage.

And I'm not sure I'd really call the Michael episode a rerun, either, since the East Coast didn't see beyond the 4th IUFB and the West Coast never saw it at all.

As for Rod, from what I understand, he's currently working on a whenever-he-feels-up-to-it basis.  Officially, Randy is still filling in for him.

Rod's latest procedure was for BPH, benign prostate hyperplasia, or an enlarged prostate. Barker had the same surgery not too long ago.

...as did Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan, and when ABC News ran a story on it, they mis-captioned one line and said he was treated for an \"enlarged prostitute\". :-)

 Would that not depend on which parts of the prostitute were enlarged?
