Hey, something I'm qualified to speak on! I'm guessing there aren't infinite people in your regular viewer/listenership who have actually played Wheel of Fortune, but I am one of them.
The whole ordeal of the shoot day was built around getting everything set up to need Pat and Vanna for as little time as possible, so they could get in, knock out a week of episodes in about four hours, and then get out. The reason their time is so respected is because they are *consummate* pros. Pat could quip and greet strangers in his sleep, even had something clever to say when I told him I played Magic the Gathering which is more than you can expect from most 70-plus year olds.
It must have been a pretty sick gig for him: get in for two half-days every two weeks, be yourself, make several million dollars a year. I'm pretty optimistic for Seacrest honestly, but Pat is so archetypal. Him being off the sets now along with Trebek feels like the true end of a classic TV era.
That's interesting! I'm curious, what did Pat say about you playing MTG?
@@MoonMagicks he asked what it was, and then when I told him it was like chess mixed with poker with a coat of Dungeons and Dragons paint over it he said "well I think I'm gonna stick with Monopoly, little more my speed." I really appreciated the levity as we were en route to the bonus round and I was nervous as fuck.
@YourPalJamieEllis howd you do?
Oh, that's so awesome that Todd, who edited this clip, was also on Wheel of Fortune
Seeing John on the podcast again was a welcome surprise!
a forever stream on the site would be awesome to have
For whatever reason, my go-to thing to listen to while falling asleep was old time radio shows, either OTR cassettes purchased from the Cracker Barrel giftshop or low-quality public domain MP3s I downloaded onto an iPod knockoff that I shoved under my pillow. Thanks to that ritual, I've probably listened to all 800+ episodes of The Jack Benny Program at least a dozen times each. I now know more about WWII pop culture than any Gen-Y person should.
That Delilah mention from John brought back a wave of memories. i used to listen to her every friday night with my parents and i looooved her request/dedication segments, my mom once called into her show, i have a recording on an old cassette :) . I am so surprised to see she is still on the radio too, wow i have to put it on one night. Love you guys by the way! i have been watching every bit of your content for years now(boxmac and junts cart hooked my instantly) and it might be cliche to say this lol but you guys have really helped me forget about some very stressful moments through the years and i really appreciate you all for that.
That’s so cool! Thanks so much for the support and I’m glad we can be part of your life!
The Delilah reference did the same thing for me. Makes me think of driving around late at night with the radio on, just as the weekend is about to start.
There was a free over the air channel called BUZZR a few years back (it could very well still be on) and they played all the greats. Match game, password, hit the buzzer, and my favorite - family feud with Richard Dawson. Man did that guy kiss everyone. Totally wouldn’t fly today 😂😂
Oh that clip of Jon at the start makes me laugh whenever I watch that Junt's cart, what a great cut in 😂😂. Great clip as always.
I have such a ridiculous CD memory from when I was a kid. I asked my mum to buy OPM heaven is a half pipe. And she came home with an M.O.P album. Cue 7/8 year old me putting on hardcore hip hop. I have never let my mum live that down.
I feel like that little Bret Hart reference was thrown in for the crossover Red Cow/OSW fans. Consider me one of those fans.
One thing I love about wheel of Fortune is that unlike most game shows they never "retired" Vannah White because she got older. They just let her age gracefully and do her thing.
That came back to bite them when she sued last year 😂
@@toddjenkins2561I believe it wasn't a lawsuit; it was just a behind-closed-doors pay dispute that got blown out of proportion by the media. Though she did sue Samsung, IIRC, years ago for likeness infringement, referencing the "turning over letters" thing in a commercial... and lost.
Going to have to hit up UA-cam and watch some old game shows. Used to watch game show network with my grandma all the time in the 2000’s.
Yea hit up youtube😅
It's like when a UA-camr tells you to go check out something, and how it's on UA-cam, you just gotta go search youtube
I used to listen to books on tape, literally tapes. I graduated in 2006 and ipods were huge in college
Honestly several channels have been doing forever streams lately, so a Red Cow Network makes sense
Also if you do that Red Cow Broadcast Day idea, you should model it after North Korean TV. An hour of men's choir then an hour of John touring & nodding at the Box Mac factory, Slob weather after the news, etc.
The video montages accompanying the National Anthem sign-off were unique to each station, as far as I know, and it seemed as if nearly every NYC-area station in the 80’s had not updated their video montage since the 60’s/70’s… and thus seemed “obscenely out-of-fashion” to my sensibilities. BUT, some small PBS station had a really trippy, psychedelic “NASA/Cosmos” themed montage that I absolutely loved. IIRC, it was the weird electronic rendition of the National Anthem that elevated it to High Art.
Hey my brother!! Funny to see you here! Where you been at?
I used to wake up before my parents and watch the Woodwright shop,old Yankee Workshop, and This old house. Just comforting easy watching
When I was in high school, I’d fall asleep listening to some weird late night radio talk show.
@@colt5189 Was it Coast to Coast with George Noory?
I loved all those PBS shows about woodworking. The dude who only used colonial-era technology was pretty awesome. A little sweat would start beading on his bushy brow and he’d continue talking, nonchalantly, as if everything was fine, but you know he was on a tight shooting schedule. One take. Done. No reshoots. 😂
Really can appreciate some wholesome Game Show talk. Barker, Trebek and Sajak really represented an era of Game Show TV that can't really be replicated. The biggest current names in Game Shows these days are well, Drew Carey and Steve Harvey.
Also shout-out to watching Match Game on the old Game Show Network in the 2000s before it got cut off into scrambled porn.
I loved Tic Tac Dough! And Card Sharks! But really I just wanted that giant deck of cards to play blackjack with.
Todd’s Bret Hart pose 😂 perfect
You could turn on the radio and listen to Coast to Coast AM if you're up late enough back then.
My days of being a Bongolian have blurred a lot of memories, but I remember there was a PBS show where a guy narrated the plot of a book while drawing a scene from the book. The drawing would often represent a cliffhanger moment to get you to read the rest of the book.
Also : The Letter People, an amazing 4:20 nightmare show.
It really feels like we're living in a post-Sajak world now
This got me in the mood to watch 372 episodes of Supermarket Sweep.
Absolutely the end of an era. Jon's love of gameshows is completely on-brand, and I love it.
I don't have my phone in the same room as I sleep and it really helps. I highly recommend it.
My husband and I thought we were the only Americans to watch taskmaster 😂😂😂 we’d watch the hell out of a red cow version
Just set up a 24 hour stream with the national anthem and a color pattern after 1pm and returning to programs at 5 am
Big Junt and bars and tones fan, BTW!
9:48 yeah I think I listened to that plus just pop songs on the radio in general to fall asleep to as a kid
I was at the infamous November 2004 Wheel of Fortune taping in Philadelphia. In the bonus round, the contestants were given the category of "Fictional Character" and the letters "RO--- B-LBO-" and the father/daughter duo guessed "ROBIN BALBOA." They lost $35,000.
Howdy Junt! Good to see you around. I'd love to hear your knowledge and stories of watching game shows in even more detail.
Holding out hope for the Jonathan and Frankie weekend in VT special! 🙏🧀🐮
8:58 Frankie had a very wholesome adolescence.
More Junt, yey! 🥰
I would listen to LoveLine with Adam and Dr. Drew before I went to bed, or usually fall asleep during it.
Same.
Have you noticed how Sony acts like the Daytime version never existed? I know I noticed. According to Sony, Wheel's first episode was in Syndication in 1983. That was literally like the first time I ever saw them acknowledge a Daytime version.
Had a summer job years ago where I around at night doing inventory count at different stores after they closed and very vividly remember Delilah
Big Junt fan BTW
Wheel of Fortune always reminds me of my grandparents. When we were at their house we'd watch Wheel every day religiously and the whole family would try to beat the contestant to the punch and guess the correct phrase first. Good times, good times. I miss them, I miss their old house and I miss those days.
Edit: Fuck yeah, I'd love to be a contestant on a Red Cow gameshow. Sign me up!!!
Excellent memories.
funny opening with junt's cap on board games lol
I still buy CDs and vinyls. It is getting increasingly difficult to buy CDs, especially in an actual store and not online. Here in the UK, there are very few stores that still sell CDs, and the ones that do are mostly Retro stores that sell collectable CDs and Vinyls, nothing new or recent.
Match Game was wild in terms of what they aired on TV. Watching it in modern day is like "holy balls this would be a minefield of cancellations" haha
Glad to see jon on. I also wanna know what his favorite board game would be
I think their era of staying home from school were the game shows and my era was watching Jerry Springer/Maury!
Nobody talks about how culturally significant Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy are. Being of similar age as you guys, we grew up with it as mentioned around dinner time. It's two shows that will never be cancelled and be on, most likely in the same time slot till we are dust. I would say they are Americana but you can search the world and Wheel is on almost everywhere. I also must say you guys also are right in that as a passage of childhood, The Price is Right would find it's way on when staying home from school. You guys present content that I wish I can interact with. I have some rather unique views on the gaming hobby and might offer some perspective that is quite different then what anyone discussed.
Red Cow Task Master PLEASE!
Yes yes yes please make Red Cow Taskmaster!
"On the spot dice spin" was one of my favorite wrong decisions, especially since the same contestant had several other wrong answers.
I remember buying CD’s and getting pissed off I couldn’t dance without the CD skipping constantly to fuck up my groove
Hard times
Yesss John, I used to love listening to Delilah!
I always just left the TV on, when I was young it was usually on nick at nite.
Ooh, I love Jon.
Good morning. I hope you are prepared to talk about James Rolfe again.
I just finished that video and I watched it only to be up to speed for when Frankie and EJ bring it up
@@chalie091892right?? lol
Jon has a lot of charisma 👌❤️
Im sure you guys probably know by now but Folding Ideas just put out a really well made video on AVGN. Im sure you guys will enjoy it
The outdated prizes are always a hoot on old game shows.
I mean, Classic Game Room does sometimes run a live stream on his youtube that's just random episodes of his show. Could work for Red Cow too lol.
Holy crap, that Delilah must be what 'The Deb of Night' from Vampire Bloodlines was inspired from.
The recently,or currently ongoing smell of dinner, before wheel of fortune/jeopardy is something probably every american will attest to
JOOOOOOOOOON ❤
Have you guys ever seen the BBC test card? In the UK, early morning TV was ruled by a girl playing noughts and crosses with a clown.
Is that what British people call tic tac toe? So weird, there x's, not crosses and zeros, not naughts. Am I crazy here?
@@kennymetz187 “x” and “cross” are the same shape - for example the “x” on a PlayStation controller is officially called “cross”. This name for the game actually predates tic-tac-toe, even in the US.
Omg Pappyland is a distant memory- unlocked
Taskmaster is great show and I'm willing to bet that you guys would love 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown.
Uh oh Red Cow has reached the "slob continuum"
Jon 🐐
Yea bro, Cars is a new movie.
Taskmaster is fantastic, a man of great taste.
Gentle criticism: I feel like there are too many long clips edited in. I zone out and forget what I'm watching sometimes and am jolted awake when it cuts back to the actual show. Shorter, snappier, less frequent clips would go a long way.
Without Bob Barker Wheel of Fortune is never the same. R.I.P Bob Barker and pet balls.
Jon is the best part of Red Cow and it's not even close.
Did you guys know that in jail, there is a brand called bob barker. All toothpaste, deodorant is literally bob barker brand. Look ot up it's true l. Ive always wondered the backstory of why and have been hard pressed to find a straight answer
I looked it up. Another guy named Bob Barker started it. Strange. Kind of like how “Adam Sandler” is the director of the price is right!
@@GTV-Japan dude I love your channel, so awesome your a fan too
@@kennymetz187cheers!
Jeez, this is the most Truther-y episode you guys have ever done. Stalled Century is officially ending with that guy retiring.
Two more: Is that really *Todd* ? (2) I once got "The Matrix: Reloaded" with no letters.
He was really a miserable person towards the end. And yelling at people for merely talking. I am happy Pat Sajak retires. Also the amount of plastic surgery he has had made him look pretty scary.
I'm 24 and Price is Right was the shit as a kid I would watch it every chance I got until Drew Carrey ruined it and I don't even dislike him just he wasn't a good fit for the show
Gauging the experience of buying CDs in 2024 by visiting FYE is a complete fail
How so? It’s extremely common retail.
....skip...M*A*S*H?!?!? (plotzes in Gen-X)
