  1. Today
  2. Gunter is not “bad” in basketball. Seems like they usually are in the playoffs but run into Ponder or Dallas Madison at some point. BTW their girls side is stinking solid too. They finished second at regionals and the Elmore girl is pretty gifted! Watched her HJ 6’0” at regionals when she was a sophomore I believe, right after she just won the shot put.
  3. White House transcript puts (inaudible) to cover the gaffe. Lol
  4. In 1993, the biblical archaeology world was rocked with the discovery of the Tel Dan inscription, which mentions the 'house of David' – proving that King David existed and that he was the start of a ruling dynasty of kings. However, a year prior, a new reading of the Mesha stele discovered a century earlier claimed to find the same phrase, “House of David.” This second "House of David' inscription was far more difficult to decipher, leading many to dismiss that it mentioned anything about the famed king from Jerusalem. Now, with the help of modern technology, Prof. Michael Langlois and colleagues have been able to present evidence confirming the “House of David” reading. On today’s program, Prof Langlois joins host Brent Nagtegaal to discuss the Mesha Stele along with current scholarship’s unscientific reluctance to accept the historicity of King David.
  5. 45 years ago today, April 18, 1979, Real People premiered. It aired from April 18, 1979 to July 4, 1984, on Wednesday and then Sunday nights. Its initial episodes aired live in the Eastern and Central Time Zones. Real People featured a panel of seated hosts in front of a large studio audience. The hosts introduced pre-filmed segments and engaged in comedic banter about them. Each segment was a visit to someone with a unique occupation or hobby. Occasionally someone was brought into the studio to interact with the audience. In its early seasons, Real People was NBC's most popular series, often scoring at the top of the ratings, and was a rare hit for the network at a time when NBC was a distant third in the ratings and struggling with numerous flops. Segments included "funny pictures" and funny newspaper errors sent in by viewers, who were awarded a Real People T-shirt. According to a 2008 interview with producer George Schlatter,[where?] who also co-created Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In for NBC, the series also covered serious topics, such as war heroes. Regular hosts included John Barbour, Sarah Purcell, Byron Allen, Skip Stephenson, Bill Rafferty, Mark Russell, Peter Billingsley, and Fred Willard. The success of Real People led to a batch of imitators, the best known and longest-running of which was That's Incredible! which aired on ABC, and That's My Line on CBS, hosted by Bob Barker. Real People gave fitness instructor Richard Simmons his major break into the mass media, and spotlighted such unique talents as Pittsburgh Police traffic cop Vic Cianca. When repeats of the show were initially syndicated to broadcast stations, it was edited into 30-minute segments and retitled More Real People. In 1980, NBC launched two attempts at spin-offs, Speak Up, America and Real Kids. The former, Speak Up, America, starred former child televangelist Marjoe Gortner and basically expanded the opening segment of Real People (in which audience members were encouraged to sound off about any topics they wished) into a full hour program. The latter, Real Kids, starred Peter Billingsley and a cast of child hosts in a format that mirrored Real People, but focused only on kids. Both spin-off formats quickly failed, though Billingsley went on to join Real People as a recurring host / contributor. A one-hour retrospective special aired on September 16, 1991 with hosts Sarah Purcell and Fred Willard.
