and How It All Went Wrong!  

Tribute by Jim Metzner, Host of Pulse of the Planet

Columnist and Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer is interviewed on  radio legend Barry Farber's radio show, and plugs his new book.

Barry did a nightly 3 hour program on WOR in the 1970's featuring  guests and topics from all directions - often on the same show. This  program, transferred to digital form thanks to Herb Squire, at WOR at  the time, starts off with David Rothenberg, founder of the Fortune  Society, that fights for the rights of the incarcerated.  Three ex  convicts are in the studio, discussing the Rahway Prison uprising.   Actress Butterfly McQueen (Gone With The Wind)  gets involved! Then  Barry goes on to interview two legendary engineers from the WOR family  that got their start doing radio drama sound effects during the 1930's  and '40's! Walt McDonough and Mack Bernoit share fascinating stories,  rich history, and good laughs. Walt describes recording Count Basie at  Birdland, literally in the dark and was working with Orson Wells the  night War Of The Worlds was broadcast. Was radio more glamorous back  then?  Not only did the talent wear a tux to the studio for a live  broadcast - the sound engineers did too! And the commercials will bring a  smile to anyone that remembers Gimbels Department Store, The Picadilly  Hotel, Proof of The Pudding Restaurant and much more!

In NYC, 2015 Barry, who is a student of 26 languages gave the Keynote address at the Polyglot conference. Enjoy this brilliant talk.

Barry asks his grandfather about everything from the Old Country (Russia) to his views on space travel, how he met Grandma Marcus and his love for his new country.

How many conservative broadcasters can boast that a Beatle is a big fan? I asked him what he and John Lennon had in common.               "We hated Communist Dictatorships!" 

This is a beautiful tale of their meeting.
