Good job Joe on the interview. It was enjoyable to listen to. Although I wish that more of AIO was talked about, I realize that you can only cover so much content in an hour long interview. I found an internet website that features Old Time Radio and found a program that Alan Young had done years ago. It wasn't one of his "Alan Young Show" programs. It was a comedy theatre. It was very interesting to listen to. I think he was co-starring with Ann Baxter. Thanks for doing the interview, Joe and God bless! Oh, by-the-way, happy wedding anniversary to you and your wife!

Joe

Ah, well that is good to hear.

At first, I thought maybe he was conveying a disinterest in the show, but I'm glad that does not seem to be the case.

Awesome interview... and also good Mr. T/Todd McFarlene story! $\:D/$

Not only did he create Spawn, but he was the original artist that drew Venom! $\:D/$

Thanks. Yeah, I had forgotten about that, but now that you mention it, I do remember that he did Venom. He also did Superman at one point. I got two things signed by him.... had to have tickets to get his signature (they were free, but limited) even after you payed to get in the convention. I had two so I got Spawn #1 signed & a superman comic that had his artwork signed. Still have them around somewhere! $\:D/$

Okay, I finally took the time to listen to the entire interview, and I'm so glad that I did! I enjoyed it a lot - thanks so much, Joe Cook! $\:D/$ It would have been nice to hear a bit more about AIO, but he has had such a long and interesting career that I can see why it didn't get more time! I loved the Marilyn Monroe story!

Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, his career has been pretty incredible. That's why, even though I knew there wasn't a lot of AIO covered, I thought it would still be really interesting for everyone to hear the man behind Jack Allen talk about his incredible career & life. And I cannot stress enough how nice of a man Alan Young is. We talked a while after the interview and he's the real deal.

I am really excited today because they just decided to link my website to Alan's Official Website!
