Got great news from my pal Tara at the Fox Cities PAC... I'll be chatting with legendary actor Theodore Bikel on the show next week.

He'll play the role of Tevya in Fiddler on the Roof at the PAC May11th - 16th... he's 86 years young and still a very powerful actor with an incredible resume... here's the IMDB page about Bikel...

ZI'm really looking forward to spending a few moments with him. I'll let you know on the air when you can hear our chat!

 

Why didn't they just do this to begin with???? Posted April 30, 2010 by Chuck Lakefield

Barb and I were at the store the other day, and the nice lady offered me some Skippy Natural Peanut Butter... it was awesome, and only 2 bucks a jar! Then I looked at the ingredients:

Peanuts

Palm Oil

Salt

Sugar

This was some of the best peanut butter I've ever had, and it made me wonder... why didn't they just make it this way all along... rather than all the stuff in regular Peanut Butter:

Roasted Peanuts, Sugar, Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils (Cottonseed, Soybean and Rapeseed) to Prevent Separation, Salt.

The Blind Side is now out on DVD, and one person who is happy about that is
Five For Fighting's John Ondrasik. He contributed one of his latest singles,
"Chances," to the soundtrack and was thrilled to be involved in the Sandra
Bullock-flick about a rising football star.

Ondrasik tells us he hopes that there will be more films like The Blind Side in the years to come:
