Ep. 289 Today's Peep Really Bites- Sound Bites of a Bygone Era Pt. 1- Clean vs Cursing: An Audio Experiment in Podcast Preferences, Happy Birthday June Lockhart and a Beautiful June Song from Holly Williams

Pat Walsh

What makes certain sound bites stick with us for decades? Is it the raw emotion, the perfect delivery, or something deeper about human connection? Today's episode dives into this fascinating question with a unique twist.

I'm celebrating the incredible June Lockhart's 100th birthday! From her beloved roles in "Lassie" and "Lost in Space" to her surprising progressive activism, June proves herself to be far more than Maureen Robinson. I share a rare 1970 recording where she bravely defended LGBTQ rights when few celebrities would dare, plus Billy Mummy's delightful revelation that this genius-level brilliant woman "loves rock and roll bad boys." My treasured Lost in Space lunchbox—signed by June herself—brings back wonderful memories of meeting this extraordinary woman.

This birthday celebration launches us into the first part of a fascinating experiment: clean sound bites today, explicit clips tomorrow. How will you respond to each? We revisit cultural touchstones that shaped our collective memory—Howard Dean's campaign-ending scream, Lloyd Benson's devastating "You're no Jack Kennedy" takedown, the unforgettable "Don't tase me, bro" incident, and hysterically awkward moments from the Democratic Socialist Convention.

Some clips will have you howling with laughter: elderly women attacking a driver with umbrellas and Bibles, a woman calling police to report herself for drunk driving, and the bizarrely wonderful heavy metal rendition of "piggy piggy pig pig." We close with Holly Williams' poignant song "Waiting on June," bringing our celebration full circle.

Will you prefer tomorrow's explicit version or today's clean collection? Let me know your thoughts and join me for part two where we'll push those language boundaries! Subscribe now and become one of Pat's Peeps—where the conversation always takes unexpected turns.

Speaker 1:

well, here we are once again, my friends. How are? How are you today? Hey, happy Wednesday. Happy Wednesday, it is the Pat's Peeps podcast. Where are we at? 289. Happy birthday to the beautifully talented June Lockhart, today 100 years old. On this, the 25th day of June. If you're celebrating a birthday like june today in june, happy birthday to you.

Speaker 1:

Thank you for tuning into my part. Do you tune in? I mean, you tune into the radio, streaming my podcast, downloading whatever it is, finding my podcast? Thank you, you know, as I look out my studio windows into the beautiful northern, the foothills of northern California on this Wednesday, it's just gorgeous out. It's warmer today, not quite as much of a nice breeze. So finally, I'm starting to feel the real beginnings of summer, which I welcome because we've had such a beautiful spring. So, wherever you are, whatever you're doing, thank you for listening.

Speaker 1:

By the way, my name is Pat Walsh. I'm also the host of the Pat Walsh Show, which is a radio show on actual terrestrial radio. Yes, some of us still do that. Matter of fact, I do it five nights a week, 7 to 10 pm on KFBK News Radio. Kfbk, kfbk News Radio. Kfbk, kfbk News Radio. We've changed over the years a little liner but nonetheless you can find me on all the streaming platforms, just like this podcast.

Speaker 1:

Great guest in studio last night Wow, you know we were having this conversation with the gentleman that hired me at the radio station some 32 years ago, derek Murray. 32 years ago, unbelievable Tony Cox was in studio radio legend. He's been on my podcast here on the Pat's Peep. Susan Baxter was a radio longtime radio person in Sacramento. We had a great conversation last night and one of the things we were talking about and I talked about yesterday here on my podcast and I will not get political today, I promise you but yesterday we did talk about President Trump using the F-bomb, dropped the F-bomb on the media, dropped the F-bomb on the media, and so I had other examples of politicians over the years who dropped F-bombs or not necessarily F-bombs, and it wasn't right to the camera like our president was doing yesterday, but nonetheless, interesting to go back and revisit some of these moments During which, in doing this, something came up about.

Speaker 1:

Well, you should have heard this. Oh, someone called and said they were in the military and that their commander would be in their office. And he says well, you think that F-bomb was something that was nothing, nothing compared to what I heard my commander doing. So he said he would just let the expletives fly, and then I proceeded to talk about the fact that, boy, some of the stuff I'd like to do on the air sometime is I can't. I can't do it on radio because of the FCC rules and regulations, you understand. But I can do it on the podcast. It occurred to me Podcast, hey, no FCC rules and regulations, at least not yet. Okay. So I said, well, I can play some of these soundbites. You wouldn't believe it.

Speaker 1:

So today I thought, instead, though, of playing those, I would play some clean, all-time favorite soundbites. I mean just I say favorite. These are off the top of my mind that I can think of. They're clean, no cursing, just fun and interesting and crazy, idiotic, some of them soundbites to listen to, to shake your head at, and just go. You gotta be kidding me. Just so cringey some of them, some of them so funny, unbelievable, some so memorable maybe others aren't so memorable and I thought I would try an experiment where, today, in part one, I would play sound bites where there is no cursing and see how many of you enjoy that. Great, like I said, but no cursing and see how many of you enjoy that. Great, like I said, but no cursing. And then tomorrow we'll do kind of a part two where I will present to you other soundbites with loads of cursing. I will not be doing the cursing, but they will, and lots of it. And we'll do a little experiment to see is there a preference? Does it make a difference to have one that is non-cursing and one that is cursing? Will some people not listen to it because, oh, there's cursing? Will more people listen to it? Will less people listen to it? You know what I'm saying, so it'll be very interesting.

Speaker 1:

Now, before I jump into this, I also want to say happy birthday to one of the loveliest people that I have had the opportunity to meet in a one-time meeting. You know, you have people that you've met and you know you've met them several times. You get to know them. They're lovely, wonderful people. Sometimes you meet someone just one time and you go, wow, that person there was outstanding, you can tell, genuinely a great, fun, loving, sweet person. Maybe I'm reading the room wrong, but I this was quite a room, pardon me. So I want to say happy 100th birthday. I can't believe it. Happy 100th birthday today to the incredibly talented, brilliant and beautiful June Lockhart.

Speaker 1:

When I was a little boy man, she was in Lassie, and I mean I was a little boy man, she was in Lassie, and I mean I was a little boy. I'll bet you the country, I'll bet you more people in the early 1960s got a collie as their pet, as their pet dog, the family dog, because of the show Lassie. We had one we had. His name was King. We had a collie because of the show Lassie. I know I was too young to really remember if it was for that reason, but I'm pretty sure I can guarantee it Because it was when Lassie was the biggest deal in the land. She was also, by the way, and hold on, let me grab this. I'm grabbing this. She was in Lost in Space Remember that With Dr Smith, and that was on in the 60s. Lost in Space was a huge show. As a kid we all watched Lost in Space.

Speaker 1:

Lost in Space. Where's my Lost in Space theme? I have my Lost in Space. Where is it? Oh, here we go. Here's my Lost in Space. Here we go. Lost in Space. I need to clean up this lunchbox. This is what is that? What is that? I don't need that. That's not Lost in Space. What is that? Here we go, lost in Space. Oh man, we look forward to this show every week.

Speaker 1:

Remember you had Dr Smith the boy, the boy and the robots Danger Will Robinson. Danger Will Robinson. Mark Goddard played Major Don West, bob May by the way, people don't know this Bob May played the robot. That's right, it was an Irwin Allen production. So many of those shows.

Speaker 1:

Guy Williams played John Robinson, billy Mummy as Will Robinson. There was Martha Kirsten as Judy Robinson. She was cute. Angela Cartwright maybe she was the one, I can't remember Penny maybe it was Penny, I don't know. Marta was so cute too, but June played Maureen Robinson. Jonathan Harris as Dr Zachary Smith the boy, robinson. Jonathan Harris is Dr Zachary Smith the boy. He would have the biggest cowards, in my opinion, in TV history.

Speaker 1:

But here's my lunchbox, my actual lunchbox from elementary school, which is a lost in space lunchbox, and in 2010, I had the opportunity to meet June Lockhart I've told you this before with Dick Van Dyke, connie Stevens, ed Asner, wink Martindale, pat Boone was there, richard Sherman oh my gosh, what an unbelievable group of people. I was so blessed to meet them and I took that lunchbox to June Lockhart and she was so impressed by that. She goes oh my God, where did you get that? Where did you get that? I said I've had this since elementary school You're kidding me. And so she signed it and she was so sweet and she was so beautiful.

Speaker 1:

That was 15 years ago. She was 85. She's a hundred today. She was more than Maureen Robinson those things people don't know about her. If you go back to 1970, she was on the Virginia Graham show and Virginia Graham had a couple of guests on the show, one of them being June Lockhart. There was a gay activist on the show that day, randy Wicker. He had a reel-to-reel home video recorder in 1970, and he recorded this and this is you'll hear June Lockhart, you'll hear this conversation and then, when June Lockhart chimes in again, this is pretty brave for 1970.

Speaker 6:

If you'll move down, darling.

Speaker 7:

I feel like it's wrong, then, not to have children, anyone not to have children? Is this true?

Speaker 6:

What? No, yes, I think it's too bad for them. I don't think it's, but that is not a sin against the law of nature.

Speaker 7:

Well, it's not against the sin of law of nature to be a homosexual. Animals have homosexual acts with each other. Go to the San Diego Zoo, watch the monkeys.

Speaker 6:

But you know what God gave us that he didn't give animals?

Speaker 7:

He gave us the intellect and the self-discipline and the sense of values that's correct to be happy human beings and if there are those individuals who happen to be heterosexual, I agree with the doctor. There are those individuals who are very happy in a homosexual relationship and they would be very unhappy in a heterosexual relationship.

Speaker 6:

Basically, what I was saying was that we don't thoroughly understand it yet and that we should not categorize it or condone it or deny it. We have to understand it. Yeah, but, andrea, june, you wanted to say something. I was just going to say, to say something I'm just going to say, virginia, I'm just a guest here, but it only. I don't think you should moralize if you've never been a homosexual? Are you kidding? You don't think I should moralize about taking dope or moralize about a shootin' and killin' if I've never killed anybody.

Speaker 6:

No, we're not talking about dope and killing. We I've never killed anybody. No, we're not talking about dope and killing. We're talking about homosexuality. I think we are.

Speaker 9:

And if we're killing a civilization, then that has to do with the other two things.

Speaker 7:

It has nothing to do with the other two things. Don't get off your subject. We must say this, though you have to remember homosexuality, throughout history, has never risen above from 4 to 10 percent probably. We have information, we have statistics that will bear this out.

Speaker 6:

We have a church like yours. Make it rise more.

Speaker 7:

No, we're only helping those who are already homosexual. We're not trying to convert people to homosexuality. That's not our reason at all. Our reason is to give a place of worship where homosexuals who feel like they have been denied the right of the church Can come and seek God without anybody.

Speaker 6:

Do you think it's a condition that should be cured? No, I don't. Do you think it's a?

Speaker 7:

condition that should be cured. No, I don't.

Speaker 6:

Just with what? With compassion. I believe that there are some cases.

Speaker 7:

Certainly I believe that there are cases, doctor, where there are individuals who are certainly neurotic and who have been conditioned to be neurotic by this society, who cannot come to terms with the homosexual and who doesn't understand his problems and in society we have him as being sick, criminal or the other thing of being sinful with the church.

Speaker 6:

May I explain something, because you make me sound hard and callous and I'm not. I have many homosexual friends and I have found them to be talented and brilliant and charming, but we've never discussed it any more than they've asked my personal habits. Ask them yes.

Speaker 9:

Your friends that are homosexuals. What do you feel about them?

Speaker 6:

I adore them and never discuss it. I have been. I've had one friend for seven years whom I was told you know is that way and any more than I would ask you know, I love the language. No, but any more than I would expect anybody to ask me what Harry and I do in our private life. Why, virginia, I've heard you talk about what you and Harry do.

Speaker 1:

No, what we don't do and I do in our private life. Virginia, I've heard you talk about what you and harry june lockhart june lockhart getting the last word in there. That was an interesting conversation. By the way, both sides had a there at the end of the lady who was critical made an interesting point. Like I don't. I don't ask either either whether you're homosexual or heterosexual. I don't care, but certainly the other folks had a great point of view too, absolutely 100%. Billy Mummy, who played Will Robinson, the boy in Lost in Space who, by the way, just for grins, if you're're a dr demento fan, I have dr demento news. I gotta jot that down too. I forgot about that. Um, he's gonna be retiring, I heard. I thought anyhow I won't get into that, but uh, billy mummy is also barnes and barn. If anyone has ever heard the song Fish Heads, fish Heads, roly Poly, fish Heads, that's actually a Billy Mummy. Here's what Billy had to say about June Lockhart.

Speaker 10:

He was enamored with David Bowie and she, I won't say, was oh dear, oh, get back here, you know. But in reality, june, who's brilliant? I mean like genius level brilliant, but she's a rock and roll gal, she loves rock and roll music and she a rock and roll gal. She, uh, she, she loves rock and roll music and she loves rock and roll bad boys that is great.

Speaker 1:

That's great. So I thought you know that's. I love listening to some of that. Uh, you know just the sound bites from her and sound bites that you don't expect to hear. And getting back to sound bites, like I said, to set this all up before I began talking about the beautiful June Lockhart Happy birthday Sound bites. So today, part one memorable, maybe not so memorable depending on who you are If you're around listening to it, I don't know. Today, though, clean in part one of bats peeps sound bites you know something.

Speaker 11:

You know something, howard dean. If you had told us one year ago, 2004 this is howard dean.

Speaker 1:

I'll start this over. I'm going to preface each one of these Howard Dean 2004.

Speaker 11:

You know something. You know something. If you had told us one year ago that we were going to come in third in Iowa, we would have given anything for that. And you know something. You know something.

Speaker 12:

Not only are we going to New Hampshire, Tom Harkin, we're going to South Carolina and Oklahoma and Arizona and North Dakota and New Mexico, we're going to California and Texas and New York and we're going to South Dakota and Oregon and Washington and Michigan and then we're going to Washington DC to take back the White House.

Speaker 8:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

The scream heard around the nation which caused, which cost Mr Dean his presidential bid. Speaking of politics, remember Lloyd Benson and Dan Quayle. I'm sorry, you know I'm going to be very disrespectful when I say this. I get it. I always felt like Dan Quayle should, at all times should, have been wearing a. You know what he's. Probably I'm going to make some people mad. He's probably got an incredible background. I've never really looked into his background, but look at him. Let me just go by the way. I'm sorry, Should have been wearing a dunce cap.

Speaker 13:

I will have day-to-day activities with all the people in government and then, if that unfortunate situation happens, if that situation which would be very tragic happens, I will be prepared to carry out the responsibilities of the presidency of the United States of America, and I will be prepared to do that. I will be prepared not only because of my service in the Congress, but because of my ability to communicate and to lead. It is not just age, it's accomplishments, it's experience. I have far more experience than many others that sought the office of Vice President of this country. I have as much experience in the Congress as Jack Kennedy did when he sought the presidency Now the greatest lion. I will be prepared to deal with the people in the Bush administration if that unfortunate event would ever occur.

Speaker 4:

Senator Benson here comes Lloyd Senator.

Speaker 2:

I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy.

Speaker 1:

Oh Lord, that is one of the best, I have to say. It doesn't matter which side of the aisle you're on. That was good. That was good. Kudos to Benson Lloyd Benson, who at one point in his early career called for the total and all-out annihilation of North Korea because they would become a world menace. Meanwhile, we traveled to University of Florida at the Cary Forum, which, to me, this is like yesterday. Don't tase me, bro, all right.

Speaker 3:

Also, are you a member of Skull and Brokeback College of Bush? Were you in the same secret society?

Speaker 14:

Speaker 12:

Excuse me, but you're asking me Whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. Is anybody watching this? I'm not Okay so.

Speaker 1:

University of Florida student Andrew Meyer. He was tasered and arrested after causing a disturbance at a town hall forum where Senator John Kerry was appearing at the UF auditorium, september 17th of 2007. Don't tase me, bro, oh.

Speaker 12:

This situation is not that you all have an option. Roll on your stomach.

Speaker 13:

I'll answer this question and um you know unfortunately he's not available to come up here and swear me in as president.

Speaker 8:

Why are they arresting me?

Speaker 4:

Can someone do something here? Let me just sit here, because it's a very important question what did I do?

Speaker 1:

Meanwhile at the Democratic Socialist Convention in Sacramento. Quick point of privilege, Quick point of personal privilege.

Speaker 3:

Guys, first of all, james Jackson, sacramento, he, him. I just want to say can we please keep the chatter to a minimum? I'm one of the people who's very, very prone to sensory overload. There's a lot of whispering and chatter going on. It's making it very difficult for me to focus. Please can we just I know we're all fresh and ready to go, but can we please just keep the chatter to a minimum. It's affecting my ability to focus. Thank you, thank you, thank you comrade?

Speaker 12:

Yes, comrade Is there a speaker against name chapter pronoun Point of personal privilege.

Speaker 9:

Yes, please do not use gendered language to address everyone. Okay.

Speaker 3:

Quick point of privilege once again.

Speaker 3:

Quick point of privilege once again. Hi, james Jackson, sacramento DSA. He, him, he him. I have already asked people to be mindful of the chatter of their comrades who are sensitive to sensory overload, and that goes double for the heckling and the hissing. It is also triggering to my anxiety. Be comradely isn't just for let's keep things civil or whatever it's, so that people aren't going to get triggered and so that it doesn't affect their performance as a delegate. Your need to express yourself is important, but your need to express yourself should not trump or over.

Speaker 15:

I see that no one's clapping for me.

Speaker 1:

What was that again?

Speaker 15:

It could be because I'm not engaging but it also is because everyone's doing this and that's really important, because those loud bursts of noise even though this is a noisy space when we can do something like reducing that, that's really important. So please don't clap, shoot up these.

Speaker 15:

We have a lot of these comrades a lot of those are invisible disabilities you don't know who it is that is having a more difficult time navigating this space, and this space was not created with all their needs in mind. So it's up to us to modify that space to make sure that, uh, everybody is able to move in the ways that they need to move. Um, and additionally, with the um, the noise issue, like avoid hissing, avoid waving banners right because those there's all sorts of things you don't know what to do.

Speaker 15:

show up these. Right, I'm sure there's lots of ways that we can communicate to each other without needing to rely on something that's going to hurt somebody else. We have quiet rooms that are available. There's a range of options of these. Right, please, don't go into that space with anything that's like an aggressive scent, for instance. Right, we don't want to put people in stressful situations that they don't consent to. Right, there are right-wing infiltrators who are trying to get in here, but it's going to be really traumatic for people if we're not making an affirmative effort to de-escalate each other and de-escalate ourselves. Right, take a deep breath. Can I feel better Before you say anything, don't really talk to anybody who doesn't have a credential, especially if you claim to be from the press, you have no idea who that person is. Please do not talk to anybody who identifies themselves as a member of the press without having credentials. Don't talk to cops, yes, don't talk to MAGA assholes. Right, we're almost there, but thank you, uh-.

Speaker 1:

We're almost there, but thank you, my pleasure. That's peeps. 289 Audio Clips, barred One.

Contest gunmetal Andre Antunes Pats Peeps 289. This guy takes his electric guitar and plays exactly to what the people say and nothing more. Exactly their tone and their rhythm.

Speaker 5:

It is metal.

Speaker 1:

Guys really talented. I need to have them on my pod. Andre Antunes I just realized a pig might be a real cool heavy metal singer. Sounds better than some of the heavy metal singers I hear screaming these days. Anyhow, I'm going to take it down a notch and I'm going to finish off Pats Peeps 289, with a little bit of dignity and class. I'm going to go back to June Lockhart. You know I didn't pull this record off my shelf today. I just was thinking about this song. I was thinking about June Lockhart. I was thinking of the month, june. I was thinking of June.

Speaker 1:

When I was thinking of June, I was thinking about a time standing behind the Strawberry Music Stage in this meadow in Yosemite and enjoying some of the most beautiful music on this gorgeous day. And I had passes, so I was doing interviews with the performers. I had passes, so I was doing interviews with the performers. One of the performers that I got to talk to had the opportunity to talk to this lovely woman, holly Williams, beautiful and special to me because her father is Bo Cephas Hank Williams Jr. Her grandfather is one of my all-time favorites. I always say Hank and Frank Zappa and the great Hank Williams is her grandfather, love Hank Williams, and so Holly, his granddaughter, was playing at the festival. We had this wonderful conversation and I had listened to her CD back at the camp and I just loved it. And there's a song on her CD which is a song called Waiting on June Again going back to June, and it's a song about a guy who's in the military I'm not sure what branch he's in World War II.

Speaker 1:

He loves his wife June. He's fighting for his country and he can't wait to see her. He's waiting on June. He can't wait to see June. He makes a promise to a friend of his. He makes a promise to his friend that he's going to go back and he's going to marry June when he gets back from the war and unfortunately, along the way he loses his life. And so this is a point of view, this song, which I just think is a beautiful song. You may or may not agree, that's okay, but this is the point of view of this now fallen serviceman in heaven, waiting for his beautiful June to walk through those pearly gates.

Speaker 5:

And her faded summer dress. Waiting on June. Her daddy shook my hand and she lit up the moment I pulled out that silver band. Waiting on June. Well, we married at the Methodist church, found a big white cow and a piece of dirt with pecan trees to build our homestead on. Joel and Becky, then Donna, then Shelby our tiny house was a sanctuary laughed to fill those rooms all day long and we were waiting on June. She's putting on her makeup and waiting on June. She's trying to get her hair curled. And waiting on June. Kids, listen to me, you all gone down to Sunday school, I'll be there in 15. Waiting on June. Listen to me, you all gone down to Sunday school, I'll be there in 15. Waiting on Gene.

Speaker 1:

Dreaming about the way, things that he wanted it to be, dreaming about what his future would be like.

Speaker 5:

But time flew by like a setting wood. Yeah, the kids grew fast and the farm did good and his birthday made our supper every day. I knew that silver bell would ring. We'd all say grace and dig on in. We always ate together in those days. Oh, one by one, those kids went off and found a love of their own. There's nothing like the joy I knew when they brought their babies home. We'd play all day in the cotton fields with the dogs I raised up a ride, and in Grandma's kitchen every night Waiting on dreams.

Speaker 1:

You know, as I read the words I stand corrected. They were married and he ends up, so I set that up wrong. He's in heaven. He just died before her. As I was reading the words, I thought he had died in the military. But no, they had this wonderful life. But he passed first and now he's waiting for June. Sorry, Waiting on June, but he passed first and now he's waiting for June.

Speaker 5:

Sorry, we were slower than we used to be. The nursing home told June and me that we'd have separate rooms Side by side. Oh, what I give for one more night of sleeping with my wife. Since 45, I've touched her skin in the middle of the night. So I'm lying in this single bed until they cut the light. That's when she'll sneak in, and I'll be fine. This single bed until they cut the light. That's when she'll sneak in and I'll be fine. Waiting on June, so we can kiss goodnight. Waiting on June, I'll hold her hand so tight. Waiting on June, I'll love her till I die. It's bittersweet when love grows old and you really miss your wife. Waiting on June.
