pethie-ish 10:14:00 AM
I never know how to pronounce his name either!
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:16:15 AM
How French should I go?
pethie-ish 10:22:17 AM
I think in the past, when I’ve played him, I said, “Gay-yard”, which is pretty darned French
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:23:43 AM
I'm stuck between that and "gal-lard." He had a very interesting life if wikipedia is to be believed.
esoterica 10:25:15 AM
Great stuff!
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:25:40 AM
Thanks [Esot]erica!
pethie-ish 10:25:55 AM
But I just found a clip from the Flip Wilson show (which made me wanna watch more), and Flip said “Gail-lard”
esoterica 10:26:33 AM
I like this slot! Had to drive to Princeton and enjoying these tunes.
esoterica 10:27:09 AM
Aw, flip Wilson ! Hi pethie
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:27:16 AM
I like the morning slot too. It's an hour shorter which has its pros and cons.
pethie-ish 10:42:21 AM
I switched from 2 to 3 hours this time, and I’m nervous about keeping up!
pethie-ish 10:42:31 AM
Hi ESO!
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:45:25 AM
I'm sure you'll do a great job -- it just takes a little extra planning.
pethie-ish 10:51:28 AM
Thanks! Fingers crossed. Also, thank you for playing Dinah and Eartha. Love them.
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:51:48 AM
Me too!
jimbeaux 11:04:18 AM
