You want to watch a movie, all you really need
is time. But back in the day, there were certain
movies that truly were events. And once a year CBS
would roll this out and you had to have two things.
You had to make sure that you had plenty of popcorn,
and you had to make sure that you found somebody

with a color TV. Not everybody had one. And you
had to have that color TV to see the transition
from black and white into color. It truly was magical.
And we are celebrating the eighty sixth anniversary of the
Wizard of Gaining a whole new life now with the
sphere in Las Vegas, and we've got songs thanks to
your suggestions. Don't have anything to do with the movie.

how are you welcome back in? I'm Don Clark. Thanks
so much for coming down and hanging out with us
once again down here in Don's basement. You know it
really was an event. I mean, now you want to
watch a movie now, I mean you've got them on
(06:24):
the cloud, You've got DVDs, Blu rays, all the different channels.
You want to watch a movie, all you really need
is time. But back in the day, there were certain
movies that truly were events. And once a year CBS
would roll this out and you had to have two things.
You had to make sure that you had plenty of popcorn,
and you had to make sure that you found somebody
(06:45):
with a color TV. Not everybody had one. And you
had to have that color TV to see the transition
from black and white into color. It truly was magical.
And we are celebrating the eighty sixth anniversary of the
Wizard of Gaining a whole new life now with the
sphere in Las Vegas, and we've got songs thanks to
your suggestions. Don't have anything to do with the movie.
