Don’t you think it is time for you to form a journalistic and entertainment duo? Abbott and Costello combined with perhaps Woodward and Bernstein – hysterical and brillaint. Now introducing
the soon-to-be famous, Tucker and Stubbs!!!! It is bound to happen.
Of course, you can also excel in the field of entertainment reviewers, the new Ebert and Roeper. Tucker and Stubbs – the dynamic duo!

Great interview, Howard. Doug’s personality and character really come through his answers to your questions. Despite Doug’s ubiquity I have yet to see him in JB, but through this comfortable and warm interview I am getting the picture of a talented and experienced yet humble person. Hopefully I will get the opportunity to see him perform one of these days.

Uncle John wouldn’t be the Johnny Crawford who played Chuck Connors’son on “The Rifleman,” would it? And who hit the charts in the early ’60′s with “Cindy’s Birthday” and “Proud?” I’m guessing not because there is no way such facts would escape your attention or mention, Howard. Also, the concept of “instant forgiveness” sounds intriguing. Did Doug elaborate on it?

I look forward to Part III. (And I applaud your editorial decision to split the interview into segments. It allows me to complete some of my other, lighter reading – “War and Peace.” )
