Star Time #252: All Work and No Play
Our usual compendium of good stuff from an unusually wide date range: 1965 all the way to 1982. Which reminds me: Since by reading this post you're a member of the Star Time Golden Circle, I thought you should be the first to know that Big Changes are coming to Star Time in the near future. It's more than a cosmetic change. It will fundamentally alter the Star Time landscape. I'm very excited about it and I hope others will begrudgingly be more excited about it too. But don't say anything, because I haven't yet told station managem -- uh, whoops.
