"Gary Dee Attends His Own Funeral" was broadcast the last week of March 1974. Now, 40 years after it aired, the show has such deep impact and even more meaning than it did in 1974. This is a story that is humorous, thought provoking, and serious at times. Nobody suspected what Gary Dee had in mind throughout this series of programs. This story has an ending with a twist, but I won't spoil it for you. Gary Dee Attends His Own Funeral (Pt8) Time check: 5 minutes before 10 O’clock, the ending of Thursday’s program. Gary says tomorrow he will be dropping dead. Gary reads some commercials and promos, and then he signs off with words of wisdom. Those remaining still have time to write your obituary. Gary introduces Bob Price and the news. >For those listeners who want to follow this podcast chronologically, >at this point I would direct you back several episodes on this >podcast site to podcasts titled: >(Gary Dee Attends His Own Funeral - The Lost Tapes) >Gary Dee Attends His Own Funeral March 1974 WERE 1300 AM >The Penny Bailey Show Overnight: >4:00 AM Friday March 29,1974 >There are six parts to this show, and it indeed adds to the >content of this series.
