2019-10-1159 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckElvis Presley -- Year OneElvis Presley wasn't born in 1956, but his career was. He began the year barely known outside the south, but under the management of Col. Tom Parker he spent 1956 making his mark on TV variety shows hosted by Milton Berle, Steve Allen and Ed Sullivan; and his recordings for RCA, beginning with "Heartbreak Hotel," dominated the pop charts. By the end of the year he was arguably the best-known entertainer in America, with broader fame still to come.

It was just 11 days after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and Armstrong was in a career lull. He also didn't think much of the song. But he recorded it like the pro he was, and while he was off playing other gigs, it displaced the Beatles as America's top pop song. It also helped Armstrong transition from a jazz pro into a pop-music idol.

2019-06-261h 08The Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckOrson Welles's Radio DaysIn 1934, Orson Welles came to Broadway in a production of "Romeo and Juliet" and within a year he was putting his mellifluous voice to use by doing a lot of radio work, including as part of the stock company, imitating famous newsmakers, on "The March of Time." While producing and directing shows on Broadway, he was also making a name for himself as the title character on "The Shadow" and, later, scaring America to death with "War of the Worlds." Today we consider Welles's work as a rising star on the radio, leading to an offer from Hollywood.
2019-06-2129 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckA Short, Unhappy "Life with Lucy"One of the most anticipated shows of the 1986-87 season was "Life with Lucy," Lucille Ball's return to weekly TV after 12 years. Ball's plan was to get the band back together by turning to the writers and cast members she'd worked with for decades in a show loaded with slapstick comedy and physical pratfalls. But Ball was 75 and her co-star, Gale Gordon, was 80 -- and, like them, the formula that had worked so well for Ball for years was showing its age.

But the obituaries were notable for what they didn't say as much as for what they did say. None of them mentioned that Burr was gay -- he had been closeted all his life. And most of them mentioned commonly-accepted facts about Burr -- that he was twice widowed, that he lost a son to leukemia and that he fought in World War II. None of that was true.

We take a look at the state of the theme in 1966, which featured songs with one-word lyrics ("Batman") and pop hits ("Secret Agent") as well as songs that did a lot of heavy lifting to explain the often-outlandish concept of the show ("My Mother the Car," "It's About Time"). We also feature a quick salute to one of the masters of the sitcom theme song who was well represented in 1966 -- composer Vic...

Over a 20-year period, Silverman had an unprecedented run as chief programmer of all three networks — CBS, ABC and NBC. His successful programming choices led to his reputation as “the man with the golden gut,” but his downfall came when he had to program against his strongest adversary — himself.
2019-02-1525 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckWhat We Laughed AtMy brother Steve and I sit down and talk about the comedians we enjoyed as kids, mostly on "The Ed Sullivan Show," like Jackie Vernon, Myron Cohen and Henny Youngman. We also talk about discovering "new" comics like Richard Pryor and George Carlin and more contemporary comics such as Brian Regan and Mike Birbiglia.
2019-02-0244 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckSid Caesar and His DemonsSid Caesar is one of the comic giants of 1950s TV, but he was also plagued by anxiety, depression, guilt and an explosive temper. In the early 1980s he came to my hometown of Louisville to perform at a dinner theatre, and I reviewed the show. I didn't know it then, but he was in the midst of a battle to escape his addiction to booze and pills and conquer his deep-seated demons.
2019-01-1823 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Miracle of "A Charlie Brown Christmas""A Charlie Brown Christmas" wasn't intentionally created to be timeless, but because of its simplicity and sincerity, timeless it is. Miraculously, it avoids every cliche associated with children's animation and is a perfect blending of music, words and images that clearly conveys one man's vision and philosophy -- Charles Schulz, who drew "Peanuts" from 1950 until his death in 2000.
2018-12-1419 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckSonny and Cher's Long, Strange TV TripThe career odyssey of Sonny and Cher began in a recording studio, led to an abortive attempt at movies and finally to TV, where their comedy-variety show was one of the most popular of the 1970s. At the same time, it shaped Cher as a showbiz and fashion icon and led to the breakup of their marriage in front of all America, and then their reconciliation -- on the tube, at least.
2018-12-0725 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckSeven and a Half Things You (Probably) Didn't Know About "The Dick Van Dyke Show"It's been over 50 years since "The Dick Van Dyke Show" ended its run, but the show has really never left the airwaves -- its blend of sophisticated and slapstick humor set a sitcom standard that has rarely been matched. What else is there to say? We attempt a few things, including which cast member almost left the show, which actress was almost cast as Laura Petrie and what episode caused the most controversy for creator Carl Reiner.
2018-11-2324 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Marlon Brando-Wally Cox ConnectionOne man was one of the most iconoclastic and controversial actors of the 20th century — the other was the voice of Underdog on a Saturday morning cartoon show. But once they met on an Illinois schoolyard, nine-year-olds Marlon Brando and Wally Cox became lifelong friends — and even lovers, according to some accounts. We look at each man’s career and their private, intense connection — one that endured even after Cox’s death in 1973.
2018-11-0230 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckWhat We Saw at the MoviesOnce again, David Inman and his brother Steve toddle down memory lane and reminisce about movies they saw as kids in the 1960s and '70s. Included are looks at the drive-in cheeseball classic "Eegah," "The Sound of Music," "How the West Was Won," "Mary Poppins," "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," "Blazing Saddles" and many others. There are also stories abut David's first R-rated movie and how Steve dealt with an upset stomach while watching "Patton."
2018-10-1250 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckA Very Short History of TV Shows with Very Short HistoriesWhat can you say about a TV show that dies after just one episode? We can think of a few things. Here's a look at some of the most notorious examples, including a show that forced Jackie Gleason to apologize to America, a "Laugh-In" ripoff that was cancelled midway through its only episode and a sitcom about the home life of the Hitlers. Here are their stories -- their pathetic stories of massive, embarrassing failure.
2018-07-2021 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe 1960s: What We Listened ToDavid Inman and his brother Steve reminisce about the music they grew up listening to, from Duke Ellington to Sarah Vaughan to the Monkees to Allan Sherman's 1963 megahit "Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah." With special appearances by Jackson Browne, Louis Armstrong, Bo Diddley, the Guess Who and the Lettermen.
2018-07-0643 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Hopalong Cassidy Magical Marketing MachineIn 1948, William Boyd made a large bet on television, and on demographics. He had an idea that the first wave of the baby boomers -- kids born to newly affluent parents -- would be a large and untapped audience for the 66 "Hopalong Cassidy" movie westerns he'd starred in, so he bought the rights and sold them to TV stations that were starved for programming. He also made deals with dozens of consumer goods companies to market authorized Hopalong Cassidy merchandise, from wallpaper to cookies to roller skates with spurs on them, and America's kids snapped them up, and Boyd...

She made her TV debut in 1939 and in the late 1940s she co-hosted a local Los Angeles series that ran five hours each day. When the Emmy Awards added the "Best Actress" category in 1951, she was one of the nominees, and exactly sixty years later, in 2011, she was a nominee once again. In between she's won eight Emmy awards, three American Comedy Awards, three Screen Actors Guild awards, a Grammy Award and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She's the oldest person ever...
2018-06-0835 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Stormy Success of "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour"In early 1967, folksinging comedians Tom and Dick Smothers kicked off their own variety show on CBS. Their competition was stiff -- NBC's "Bonanza," the one show that CBS could never seem to dislodge from its top-10 spot in the ratings. But the brothers beat "Bonanza" with a combination of topical comedy and musical guests like the Turtles, Buffalo Springfield and the Who. The only problem was that the show's anti-war humor and social satire often ran afoul of CBS censors -- and even prompted protests from the White House, leading to a series of conflicts between the Smothers Brothers...
2018-05-2939 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckLiz and Dick and Lucy and the RingIn 1969, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton were arguably the world's most famous married couple, and they became even more well known when Burton bought his wife a 69-carat diamond ring that cost over a million dollars. At a Hollywood party, their paths crossed with Lucille Ball and an unlikely idea emerged -- within weeks the Burtons were taping an episode of "Here's Lucy" as themselves, with the ring as a special guest star. This is the story of a very large diamond, two very popular movie stars and one of America's favorite comic actresses -- and how they all...
2018-05-1123 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckFade to Blacklist: Part 2In our last episode, we looked at the East Coast blacklist of TV and radio performers triggered by "Red Channels" -- which listed the "Communistic activities" of supposed radicals -- and the lives that were ruined by it. In this episode we look at the pushback -- the positive results of people standing up to a small number of self-appointed vigilantes, and what happened when networks and sponsors stood strong against threats to shows such as "I've Got a Secret" and "I Love Lucy." We also look at one man who finally had enough and took the blacklist creators...
2018-04-2735 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckFade to Blacklist: Part 1In the summer of 1950, a booklet called "Red Channels" shook up the East Coast media structure -- radio and TV networks as well as advertising agencies. "Red Channels" listed the "subversive" activities of over 150 writers, directors and performers, from Orson Welles to Lena Horne. If you were named in the book, you were guilty until proven innocent and you ran the serious risk of being unemployable on radio or TV. The blacklist triggered by "Red Channels" lasted for much of the 1950s, seriously affecting and even ruining the lives of innocent people. In the first of two parts, we...
2018-04-1327 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Rise and Fall of "Moonlighting"When the Directors Guild of America announced its award nominations in 1986, history was made. For the very first time, one TV show was nominated for best direction in a comedy and best direction in a drama -- "Moonlighting." The combination detective series-screwball comedy thrived on romantic tension for three seasons in the mid-1980s -- until the lead characters finally got together and the show's creators weren't quite what to do next.

Joes fully equipped for nuclear war to electric football games, which were basically vibrating pieces of sheet metal. There are also special guest appearances by Hot Wheels, Mr. Kelly's Car Wash, Major Matt Mason and Zero M spy toys.
2018-03-1627 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe 1960s: What We WatchedDavid Inman and his brother Steve remember what it was like in the dark days when many cities only had three TV stations, and the shows they would watch, from "Batman" to "Lost in Space" to "Davey and Goliath." They also discuss their fears (the Joker on "Batman," the monsters on "Lost in Space") and the shows that were off limits at their house (Hint: Both shows featured actors named Jack).
2018-03-0950 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture Potluck"The Andy Griffith Show" and How It Grew“The Andy Griffith Show” is Griffith’s best work — certainly his most personal. It was never out of TV’s Top 10 programs for its entire eight-season run, and it inspired a spinoff series, a TV movies and several reunion specials. Fifty years after it left the air, the reruns continue. Griffith never won an Emmy Award, but he was the guiding creative force behind the show, building it into a situation comedy with heart as well as humor — and shaping the relationship between himself and Don Knotts, as deputy Barney Fife, to reflect the relationship between two friends in one of his f...
2018-03-0222 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckJames Cagney's Final Act(ing)After a thirty-year Hollywood career, James Cagney made what he thought would be his final film in 1961 -- a comedy directed by Billy Wilder called "One Two Three." Cagney then retired, spending his time between two farms he owned -- one on Martha's Vineyard and one in upstate New York. But Cagney got tired of being retired, and in 1980 his friend, director Milos Forman, talked Cagney into taking a small but significant role in Forman's film adaptation of the bestselling novel "Ragtime." Further encouraged by his family and lifelong friend Pat O'Brien, Cagney went on to play the lead...
2018-02-2331 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Variety Show Skirmishes of 1963In the fall of 1963, the big TV news was that three bonafide movie stars were going to host weekly variety shows -- Judy Garland, Jerry Lewis and Danny Kaye. By the end of the season, only one of them would still be on the air -- the other flamed out spectacularly and the third, after being wrecked by network interference, started again from scratch and found itself in its outstanding final episodes. Along the way, there were ego clashes, blown-out budgets, behind-the-scenes drama, creative upheaval, flat-out sexism and a final gesture of defiance centered around the assassination of President...
2018-02-1646 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture Potluck1952: The 60-Second ElectionIn 1952, Republican Dwight Eisenhower squared off against Democrat Adlai Stevenson in the presidential election. Eisenhower, who had been commander of allied forces in Europe during World War II, was enormously popular but not much of a public speaker. So a combination of talents from America’s largest advertising agencies, including the man upon whom the “Mad Men” character Don Draper was roughly based, convinced Eisenhower and his advisers that the best way to reach American voters was the same way they received selling propositions about what soap to use, what car to drive, what cigarette to smoke — by a TV comme...
2018-02-0926 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Jack Benny-Johnny Carson ConnectionIn 1949, Jack Benny took advantage of new capital gains laws and moved his popular program from NBC to CBS, an immense boost to that network in ratings and prestige. At about the same time, a senior at the University of Nebraska named Johnny Carson was putting together his thesis, "How to Write Comedy for Radio," a tape-recorded presentation filled with examples of Jack Benny's work. Carson couldn’t have known it at the time, but within a few years Benny would become one of Carson’s biggest boosters – they formed a kind of mutual admiration society that would last until...

2017-12-1458 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Quiz Show Scandals: "Twenty-One"We end our two-part look at the quiz show scandals with the most infamous example of all -- the NBC program "Twenty-One." Contestants on the show were deliberately given answers to questions, directed to lose games and were even coached on how, for maximum dramatic effect, to hesitate when answering a question. The show's most popular contestant, Charles Van Doren, was celebrated for his intellect and humility and rewarded with a job on NBC-TV. But he ended up revealing his role in the hoax during a dramatic congressional hearing, and his reputation was forever tarnished.
2017-12-0126 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckEd Sullivan, American GatekeeperIn 1948, Ed Sullivan began hosting a weekly variety series on CBS-TV. His background as a newspaper columnist served him well -- he had an unerring instinct for what people wanted to see, and he used his unique power to become an influential American gatekeeper for most of the 1950s and '60s. We take a look a Sullivan's influence, including "blessing" Elvis Presley and the Beatles by praising them on the air and reassuring anxious parents of teenagers. We also review his feuds with the likes of Steve Allen, Jackie Mason and Buddy Holly.
2017-11-3024 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Quiz Show Scandals: "The $64,000 Question"During the summer of 1955, a new TV show kept people in front of their sets on hot Tuesday nights. “The $64,000 Question” was a big-money quiz show that made its contestants instant celebrities and the show even displaced “I Love Lucy” as the nation’s top TV program. What nobody realized at the time was that the show was planned, paced and cast like a drama, and a contestant’s success depended not on the questions he or she answered correctly, but on a sponsor who would drop you when you ceased to be useful.
2017-11-2428 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckIn Godfrey We TrustIn the late 1940s and early '50s the biggest moneymaker on CBS radio and television was Arthur Godfrey -- at one point he reportedly brought in 12 percent of the network's income. He had an unpretentious style of communicating with his audience, and a smooth manner of selling products that sponsors loved. But in 1953, at the height of his popularity, Godfrey suffered a huge, self-inflicted blow to his stature when he fired one of his regulars, known as "the little Godfreys," live on the air. The incident haunted the rest of his career.

2017-10-0936 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Rise and Fall of DragnetIn the summer of 1949, "Dragnet" premiered on NBC radio. It was a show that sounded like no other thanks to creator-star Jack Webb's obsession with authenticity. "Dragnet" then moved to TV and ran for most of the 1950s. Its theme song and opening disclaimer -- "The story you are about to see is true; the names have been changed to protect the innocent" -- became part of pop culture history. During the turbulent late 1960s, "Dragnet" was revived, and it hadn't changed -- but the world had, and authority was something to be questioned rather than celebrated. We look...
2017-10-0738 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckWhen Maude Findlay Had an AbortionIn the fall of 1972, the first spinoff of "All in the Family" premiered. It was "Maude," with Beatrice Arthur as Edith Bunker's liberal cousin. And right out of the gate, "Maude" took on controversial topics like psychotherapy, black militancy and modern morality. Then on November 14, in the ninth episode of the series, Maude found out she was pregnant at age 47. She considered her options, including abortion, which at the time was legal in New York state, where the show was set. (The U.S. Supreme Court wouldn't legalize abortion nationwide until 1973.) Maude's decision to get an abortion would go...
2017-09-3023 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckBig Stars + Small Screen = Tiny AudiencesThe big TV story in the fall of 1971 was that movie stars were coming to the tube, including James Stewart, Henry Fonda, Shirley MacLaine, Glenn Ford, Anthony Quinn, Rock Hudson and Tony Curtis, among others. Many of them turned to TV because movie roles were growing scarce, and for lucrative paychecks. But the vehicles they chose were garden variety TV — family sitcoms and cop shows — and viewers tuned out. We look at the highest-profile failures — “The Jimmy Stewart Show,” Shirley MacLaine’s “Shirley’s World” and Henry Fonda’s “The Smith Family.”
2017-09-1520 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckThe Keefe Brasselle Story, or Godfather Knows BestKeefe Brasselle’s show business career includes a few movies, some TV work, probable arson, extortion, kickbacks, assault with a deadly weapon and lots of threats of bodily harm. His unholy alliance with a CBS executive led to the executive’s downfall, and his repeated boasting about his mafia connections, along with his lack of any real talent, made him a bitter has-been reduced to writing and acting in a 1970s drive-in quicky. In this episode we examine Brasselle’s career and his unsavory associations.
2017-09-0817 minThe Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckA Short History of Ridiculous Sponsor InterferenceFor almost as long as there has been broadcasting, there has been commercial sponsorship. But from the 1930s through the 1960s sponsors had an unusual amount of power because, through advertising agencies, they owned entire blocks of time on the program schedule and produced their own shows. In this episode we look at a few examples of sponsor power run amok, resulting in complications that were sometimes dangerous, sometimes just silly. Along the way we will sample clips from "The Jack Benny Program," "The Flintstones," "I Love Lucy," "Playhouse 90," "The $64,000 Question" and "30 Rock," among others.

The Incredible Inman's Pop Culture PotluckWho Shot J.R.?: The Plot Heard Round the WorldAs "Game of Thrones" ends its season with the traditional cliffhanger, it follows in the tradition of a family saga that started it all -- "Dallas." Like "Game of Thrones," "Dallas" told stories in a season-long arc, and J.R. Ewing was arguably the precursor of anti-heroes like Don Draper, Tony Soprano or Tywin Lannister. And "Dallas" had the mac daddy of all season-ending cliffhangers: "Who Shot J.R.?," which swept the world during the summer of 1980. In this podcast we look at the similarities between "Dallas" and "Game of Thrones" as well as that fateful summer.
