Welcome to Podcast #192. Today Jackie and I concentrate on the big "Coachella" rock concert that has been running all this weekend in the desert in California, and the incredible lengths the women attending the concert go to to "recapture their youth". (Can you say 2O grand for liposuction and an abdomen tuck so you can look good in a midriff top at a 3 day concert???) As opposed to the guys who figure no matter what shape they're in, a tee-shirt and cut-offs will do. 

But the really BIG news here is the NEXT concert...

According to Rolling Stone Magazine, the Coachella concert in October, will be a strictly "over 70" affair - in that all of the on-stage performers will be 70 or older and will star Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, The Who and Bob Dylan. The good news: YOU don't have to be over 70 to attend! 

Plus we ask should Kindergarten students be exposed to a diatribe on "elephants" and "donkeys" (you know what I mean) when learning about animals? Or is Post-Pre-School-Politics jumping the gun? We'll get a middle schoolers take. 

So get your Bic lighter out and get ready to wave it in the air as you listen to Podcast #192! 

Have a great day!

Purtan Podcast #190

Click here to download Podcast

Welcome to an Encore presentation of Podcast #190. We got such an great response to it over the course of the week, I decided to re-post it for those of you who may have missed it. 

In all honesty, I have to say of all 190 Podcasts we've done, this may be my favorite. Our main topic today: the sudden death of comedian Garry Shandling at the age of 66. 

We invited Tom Delisle back again this week because he and Garry were friends and were a comedy writing team during many of years Tom lived in LA. Tom will explain their working relationship - and friendship - and how both came to an abrupt end when Tom gave an honest answer to a question asked by Garry during a phone call about two projected TV shows, "It's Garry Shandling's Show" and "The Larry Sanders Show". 

He'll also explain why Garry didn't fear death - and in some ways looked forward to it - all due to a car accident he survived years ago. 

And I'll tell you about a comedy bit that I saw on TV back in the early 60's that actually caused me to fall off the couch laughing... and, well, I tell the rest of story in the Podcast. (It's something I never had the nerve to tell on the air during all my years on the radio.) 

Have a great weekend and I'll see you back here Monday!
