WKRP-Cast

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK!! Hey, Fellow Babies!! Amazingly, we just passed our second anniversary since dropping the "Prolog" episode on 9/1/20. Two Big Years of the WKRP-Cast!!  Since it's Labor Day in the United States, we are taking off this weekend. No new episode, but we DO have a new interview for you. After about a year of pursuit, we finally caught up to Stacy Heather...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK!! Hey Fellow Babies!! Since we're here in the U.S. of A., we are celebrating the 4th of July. All you American Fellow Babies, Happy 4th!! To the rest of the world...the smoke and noise should be over by Wednesday or so. Sorry! We may not be doing a new show...but we didn't want to leave you with NO show! We're re-releasing a favorite: "Real Families."...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK!! Hey, Fellow Babies!! We celebrated our 35th Wedding Anniversary on June 20th. Rather than spend the week working on a new show, we took the week off to celebrate! We didn't want to leave you completely high-and-dry, so we're re-running a romantic favorite: "Patter of Little Feet." We did cut a new intro. We've got a project in the works and we're ne...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK!! Hey, Fellow Babies! We here at the WKRP-Cast have taken the week off for Memorial Day. Since this is an elaborate hobby and doesn't pay much of anything (aside from you Patrons...THANK YOU, Patrons!!) we figured we deserved a week off. But, we didn't want to leave you Fellow Babies hangin'! We wanted to get something new to you, only without putting...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WKRP-CAST SPECIAL REPORT: Hey, Fellow Babies!! Welcome to this podcast "Special Report". Today marked what many believe to be the anniversary of the "final" regular season, first run WKRP episode. We have evidence this is not true. We're going to go into detail as we finish out the podcast, but we thought you might like an overview instead of waiting all summer. E...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… [For "Choose Your Own Adventure" Info, See Below...] Hey, Fellow Babies!! The Cincinnati trip was a huge success. We got back just a couple of hours before recording this episode. We had a great time, even if we are a little sore (we walked a LOT!).  There's tons of info in this week's show about the trip!! A tip: check the show Facebook page. All you have to do i...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK!! Hey Fellow Babies!! We hope you're enjoying whatever end of year festivities are your custom. We celebrate Christmas, so we're hanging with family over the holidays eating too much and opening presents. Yeah...it also means we're taking the week off!! Fear not!! We didn't want to leave you hanging completely, so we've recorded a new intro for "Jenni...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK! Hey, Fellow Babies! Guess what? We're still moving! We tore down the audio editor and piled it into the back of a U-Haul with the rest of our stuff on Oct. 13th. Goodbye, Illinois!! (it was fun...but we won't miss the winters!). Hello, Arkansas! (but not as fast as we thought...construction slowdown due to supply chain issues at the new place). We've...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK! Hey, Fellow Babies! The massive "Stare Relocation Tour 2021" is on! We tore down the audio editor and piled it into the back of a U-Haul with the rest of our stuff on Oct. 13th. Goodbye, Illinois!! (it was fun...but we won't miss the winters!). Hello, Arkansas! (in about a week...construction slowdown due to supply chain issues at the new place). Sin...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK! Hey, Fellow Babies...we've got big doings around here!! We talk about it in a little more detail in the intro. We're moving! Retirement, warmer weather...we'll still be podcasting, just not in frigid Central Illinois. Be patient with us the next few weeks. Our recording space will be changing. Once we're in the new place everything should stabilize....

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK! Hey, Fellow Babies! If you happen to be from the United States, a Happy and Safe Fourth of July to you! If you are from elsewhere, this is the week where happy citizens of the U.S. celebrate their independence by spending a fortune on fireworks and ER visits.  We are taking the week off for a little vacation...but we didn't want to leave you hanging...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK! We've got "Elgar"!! Christian Seaborn is the 4'11" comic actor who brought the memorable attorney "Elgar Neece" to life on the WKRP Episode "Mike Fright". The WKRP-Cast found Elgar...er, Christian...who is living in Reno, NV.  You know how how high-energy Elgar is? There's a lot of Christian in Elgar...we got him to hold still for a few minutes and t...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… WELCOME BACK! Settle in kids, and prepare for a thrilling tale of yesteryear!! Okay, so maybe it's not quite THAT old...but this is going back a bit.  In Atlanta in the early 1970s, an advertising executive was dealing with a demon. It was the Demon of Creativity, and it was forcing him to write and to create. This ad exec's name, of course, was Hugh Wilson. The t...

WELCOME BACK! Hey, Fellow Babies! We've finished all of Season One!! Woo-hoo!! We thought we'd celebrate the turn of the seasons with something EXTRA.  If you heard our "Young Master Carlson" episode, then you're already very aware that Marcus Issoglio (aka "Sparky Marcus") is a NUT! This guy is FUNNY! We had a great time Zooming with him for about 90 minutes one Saturday afternoon. That interview...

WELCOME BACK! Hey, Fellow Babies! Prepare yourselves for something COMPLETELY different! We're on a holiday break but we didn't want to leave you hanging for a full two weeks. So, we decided to do a little something "extra"...which is why we're calling this a "WKRP-Cast Extra"!! Huge thanks to Casey Piotrowski, writer of "Contest Nobody Could Win" for sharing the outline with us. Casey said they w...

Send a note to Allen & Donna… Hey, fellow babies!! Our names are Allen and Donna Stare and we're starting a podcast! Allen has been in radio and advertising for forty years...and Donna married him (it's not her fault, she didn't know where this could lead). We're both huge fans of "WKRP in Cincinnati"...so big, in fact, we decided we just had to chat about it with the whole world! (or at least...
