For All You Bob Barker Addicts Out There. . .

Hitting "SCAN" on the car radio this morning, I couldn't believe my ears. . . a radio broadcast of "The Price is Right". Huh? In which alternate dimension did I awake this morning?

Is this something new or am I the last one to know? Are there other game shows broadcast over the radio? It seems to me that there is a fundamental component missing in this type of format - the wacky visuals, of course! I'm talking about those zany t-shirts worn by audience members desperate to guess the price of a bottle of Tums in the hopes of winning a car. Or what about the deliberately overacted gestures by the models during a Showcase Showdown narrative?

Gotta love it.
