John Barbour Channels Mark Russell and Tom Lehrer

TVC 490.6: Part 2 of a conversation that began last week with John Barbour, the five-time Emmy Award-winning talk show host, comedian, critic at large, and documentary film maker who is also the creator, producer, principal writer, and one of the original co-hosts of Real People (NBC, 1979-1984). In this segment, John shares a few thoughts about isolation during this extraordinary time, including a whimsical, Tom Lehrer-like song set to the tune of “Mack the Knife.” John’s memoir, Your Mother’s Not a Virgin: The Bumpy Life and Times of the Canadian Dropout Who Changed the Face of American TV, is available in softcover and as an eBook wherever books are sold online.
