On this edition of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, Smitty remembers the great TV game show "To Tell The Truth". Both hosts of the game show, Bud Collyer and Gary Moore are recalled, as well as long-time panelists Kitty Carlisle, Peggy Cass, Bill Cullen, Orson Bean, and Polly Bergen. Ian recalls the Golden Age of Television and such shows as "Patterns", "Requiem for a Heavyweight", and "No Time For Sergeants", and their varied stars, Everett Sloan, Jack Palance, and Andy Griffith. All three of these TV shows were later made into motion pictures. Mike remembers a Muntz 4-track tape deck he had in his car years ago, as well as other Muntz tape decks such as the blue light tape player. Also remembered are Earl "Madman" Muntz's stereo stores and his unique sales techniques. Plus an interesting Retro-commercial from Disneyland in late 1963. The Galaxy guys draw parallels from this commercial to the then recent assassination of president John F. Kennedy.
