Mo Rocca: For The Love of Nellie

Mo Rocca has been on Pamela's shortlist for "Dream Guests" since this podcast began. And we're thrilled he's here! Mo Rocca is widely praised for his multifaceted career as a writer, humorist, and television correspondent. He is particularly known for his engaging storytelling style, which blends humor, historical insight, and a touch of irony. In addition to his writing, Rocca's work as a correspondent on CBS Sunday Morning and hisroles in various television programs, including "The Daily Show", "I Love the 70s" and "I Love the 80's", "My Grandmother's Ravioli" on the Cooking Channel, and "Henry Ford's Innovation Nation" on CBS has cemented his reputation as a versatile and engaging media personality. His work often highlights underappreciated figures and lesser-known historical facts, making his content both educational and entertaining, as shown in his Podcast and Book, "Mobituaries". His latest book, "Roctogenarians", celebrates individuals who achieved significant milestones later in life, drawing praise for its inspiring and often humorous profiles of these late bloomers--one of them being none other than Laura Ingalls Wilder. Join us as we discuss all things Prairie and how Mo got started on his eclectic and multifaceted career. Find out if Mo is #TeamAdam or #TeamManly, why Nellie is a gay icon, why old people are his "jam", and what our imaginary Walnut Grove nightclubs would be named. Ever the Bonnethead, Mo asked as many questions to Alison and Dean as we asked him...and quickly discovered he could be the biggest Nellie Oleson fan of all time. Quite simply, Mo Rocca ROCKS.For more info go to:www.LittleHouse50Podcast.com to connect with our hosts and link to their websites.*The merch shop is under renovation - we will keep you posted on the status!*www.LivinOnaPrairieTV.com  Check out this Award Winning Series created by Pamela Bob, with special guest stars Alison Arngrim and Charlotte Stewart.Little House 50th Anniversary Bus Tours - www.SimiValleyChamber.org  select Little House 50th Anniversary and then Bus TicketsFacebook/Instagram/TikTok:Dean Butler @officialdeanbutlerAlison Arngrim @alisonarngrimPamela Bob @thepamelabob, @prairietvMO ROCCA:Mobituaries - https://www.mobituaries.com/Rocktogenarians - Rocktogenarians Book - Info and Where To BuyMo interviews Melissa Gilbert: Melissa Gilbert InterviewInstagram: @mobituariesFACEBOOK LIVE with PAMELA and DEANhttps://fb.watch/sXZvDxawWr/LITTLE HOUSE EVENTSJuly 19th-21st Walnut Grove, MIAddress: 330 8th StreetWalnut Grove, MN  56180July 26th-28th SD, Carrie DaysKeystone Community CenterAugust 16th-17th Tombstone, AZBook SigningAddress: 530 East Allen St. Tombstone AZ 85638August 30th-Sept. 1st Watertown, CThttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/little-house-50th-cast-reunion-ct-tickets-753166881417Address: Connecticut Convention Center100 Columbus Boulevard Hartford, CT 06103September 3rd-4th 2024, Lancaster, PA https://www.eventbrite.com/e/792807006097?aff=oddtdtcreatorFarm & Home CenterAddress: 1383 Arcadia Road Lancaster, PA 17601September 14th-15th Lyles, TNJohnny Cash’s Hideaway FarmAddress: 9347 Old Highway 46 Lyle, TN 37025September 27th-29th Mansfield, MOWilder DaysAddress: 100 E ParksquareMansfield, MO  65704United StatesOctober 4th & 5th - Tulsa, OKOctober 18th & 19th - Almanzo Wilder HomesteadNovember 16th & 17th -  Branson, MOBranson Convention Center200 South Sycamore Street Branson, MO 65616December 6th-8th : Corsicana, TXhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/923124278567?aff=oddtdtcreatorCONFESSIONS OF A PRAIRIE BITCH-ALISON'S ONE-WOMAN SHOWJuly 12, 13 & 14. RedroomP-Townhttps://redroom.club/events/90938August 1 at 7pm Oasis (298 11th St, San Francisco, CA 94103)Tickets at www.sfoasis.com**WITH A SURPRISE SPECIAL GUEST**ADDITIONAL SIGNINGSAlison and Melissa Gilbert will be appearing at:FAN X in Salt Lake City,  Sept 26 - 28https://fanxsaltlake.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/little-house-on-the-prairie-50th-anniversary-podcast--6055242/support.
