Hi, it's Alice. He was the ultimate schmoser, and he had a dream, a dream that started when he was just five years old, growing up in the 1930s and 40s.

I would lie in bed, look at the radio, and I wanted to be on the radio.

I don't know why. I was magically attuned to it I would listen to these voices and then as I got a little older and I'm not just a little old seven or eight I would imagine myself doing what they're doing I I would actually stand up, sit down, I'd go to the mirror,

and I would say, the romance of Helen Trent, as if I were the announcer.

Then I thought I would go to baseball games and I'd roll up the scorecard and I'd sit up in the back row and all my friends would look up at me and I'd broadcast the game of myself.

I literally fantasize myself into being a broadcaster.

Larry Ziger, holding a rolled-up scorecard as a microphone,

could not possibly have foreseen back then

how far schmusing could take him. Global communications satellites didn't

exist yet. CNN didn't exist yet. And he was just a poor kid from Brooklyn whose father had died leaving the family on public assistance.

But Larry Ziger grew up to become Larry King.

You started you, Dean and Sammy, and

Dean left the tour and people are printing there was a rift.

No, not true.

What happened?

Dean Martin is a man who doesn't like to work.

Let me begin that way.

You were still optimistic about where we're going?

Very.

We have no superpower enemy.

We got to stay involved.

We got a lead.
