He share some of the history and memories of his favorite passion pits. Smitty learns all about Mike's experiences as a consumer victim in the 1960s. Chameleon lizards Dead on Arrival, X-ray glasses that made the family optometrist smile, and those crazy "Just Add Water" Sea Horses, all courtesy of those comic book advertisements that lured unwitting Mike-Types. Plus, Jose Feliciano in a retro-commercial that touts Clint Eastwood's favorite beer in his movies of the 1960s-1970s. Also, Ian Rose talks about Gene Autry, Pat Buttram, Roy Rogers, and other TV-Movie cowboys, here on Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site
