Title: Dick DeBartolo Talks About Match Game
Post by: pianogeek on April 07, 2006, 02:56:34 PM
On the today's gadget podcast titled The Daily Giz Wiz, hosted by former TechTV host Leo Laporte and Mad's "Maddest Writer" Dick DeBartelo, before talking about the today's gadget, Dick told stories about Match Game.

He mentions about Gene's microphones, how boring the fill-in-the-blank statements were and how he got Mark Goodson to basically say "yes" in wanting to write risque questions during a period in 1973 when CBS initially decided not to renew.

Go to: http://twit.tv (http://\"http://twit.tv\")

Then go to the left-hand side menu area and, under the "Radio Leo" sub-heading, click on "Daily Giz Wiz 35: Arm Alarm".  (MP3 format)  The start of the above discussion is about 2 to 3 minutes in.

I was wondering when someone was gonna post about the Giz Wiz here.

(Incidentally, the rest of Leo's podcasts are awesome, too.)
