Back in 1971, host Diane M. Simard spent her 5th birthday as a guest on a kids' after-school show called Cartoon Corral. The show, produced by KOLN-KGIN TV in Lincoln, Nebraska, was hosted by "Kalamity Kate," portrayed by Leta Powell Drake.
In this episode, Diane shares how Cartoon Corral helped introduce her to Unlikely Gifts Podcast Editor/Producer, Larry King, over 50 years later. Not only did Diane make her "professional television debut" on the show, she learned some valuable early life lessons that day.
