Star Time #175: Practical Guy


Lots of squeal-emitting joy in this week's episode, including one lemon of a new car, a stray Vespa, slow mold, Kansas City playboys (the international kind), big parties and soul sisters. We also establish, beyond the shadow of all conceivable doubts, exactly what day of the week the Star Time Sunday Jukebox airs.
