Summary

This episode is a little late because Larry had an audition. And he was almost late to that audition because of, how shall we say, biology. And you'll hear all about it! Plus, we get a report on Larry's post-audition lunch and the "Biblical hotties" that work there. And Larry talks about the great Sean Connery movie "The Man Who Would Be King." On Poetry Corner, Larry recites another great one from Edgar Albert Guest: "Tinkerin' At Home." And news from Milleronia! Larry is getting another dog! Will he learn to fly one of Larry's helicopters?

Quote of the week: "He looks like a Jewish Oddjob."

Producer: Colonel Jeff Fox
