Talk Shows Quotes

“That day, I started taking an interest in the bar's television. We always kept it on. As the hours slid by in a cacophony of talk I kept watch, throwing in the occasional comment about politicians, bankers, show biz personalities as they appeared on screen. I wasn't being nosy, you understand. Just human.”
― Jonathan Gash, The Great California Game

“Of all radio program forms, the radio talk is the hardest to write, to give, and to make interesting and acceptable to the listening public.

That is done almost as unconsciously as breathing.”

“Suddenly, it hit me. Why not do a talk show that featured not one, but four engaging female hosts of varying ages and perspectives. . . create a “kitchen table” forum for discussion. If it was on their minds, ya gotta figure that it’s on the minds of half of American women, right?”
