Thanks, Buss. I'm especially glad you enjoyed "Lydia, The Tattooed Lady". Bill loved the Marx Brothers (as do I). Over the years, we did three or four 4-hour Marx Brothers specials combining music, radio program appearances, trivia and listener memories.
Today's program was very hard for us. Mourning the loss of a friend is one aspect, but this is one we had some opportunity to adjust to when his condition worsened. The harder part was striking a balance among reminiscing, mourning without being too sad, celebrating without being irreverent, mentioning Bill's death without listeners feeling we were talking about it too much (or, to the contrary, hearing it for the first time and potentially being shocked). We also had so many emails and calls. We're glad with the way everything came together. Bill would have loved Four Shillings Short, too!
