We talk about Peanuts on this edition of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site. Smitty recalls the Peanuts characters: Charlie Brown, Linus, Snoopy, Sally, Lucy and all the gang. The characters were the creation of the late Charles M. Schulz. In particular Smitty tells the story of how the first Peanuts special came to be, the show known to countless individuals as "A Charlie Brown Christmas". Other specials remembered are "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown", and "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving". Ian talks to us about automation, Radio Automation that is. Ian was there at the beginning of the Radio Automation era and he remembers some interesting, funny, and strange things that automation brought forth. Mike tells us about Hair Tonics and Greasy Kids Stuff of the 1950's and 60's. Remember the stuff guys used to put in their hair? Such things as Brylcreem, Command, Vitalis, and Butch Wax. These things helped to keep your hair in place when you used them back in the day. Our Retro-Commercial is for Cracker Jack, and features the famous Cracker Jack jingle, sure to evoke a lot of memories. Join us on Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site!
