First hour: Ed welcomes actress Julie Adams, star of The Creature from the Black Lagoon and many other stage, film and TV productions. Julie and her son Mitchell Danton are co-authors of The Lucky Southern Star: Reflections from the Black Lagoon, the story of Julie’s life and career, and a book that is filled with great memories and spectacular behind-the-scenes photographs of not just Creature, but many of Julie's other film and TV projects, including Bend of the River, Mississippi Gambler, Man from the Alamo, The Last Movie, Tickle Me, Perry Mason, The Andy Griffith Show, The Jimmy Stewart Show, Rod Serling’s Night Gallery and Murder, She Wrote. Julie also has several appearances coming up in the next few weeks, including the "Women in Horror" panel at Horror Hound Weekend in Columbus, Ohio on March 23, 24, and 25, and the annual Monsterpalooza gathering in Burbank, CA on April 13, 14 and 15. Second hour: Ed welcomes singer/actor Robert Davi (Profiler, Licence to Kill, The Goonies, The Dukes, Contract on Cherry Street). Robert’s first album, Davi Sings Sinatra: On the Road to Romance, pays tribute to not only his friend and mentor, Frank Sinatra, but also The Great American Songbook. Robert will be appearing at the Venetian Showroom in Las Vegas, the site of the historic Sands Hotel (where Sinatra held court throughout the 1960s), on February 23, 24 and 25. Also in this hour: a review of Carol Channing: Larger Than Life, a touching new documentary about the Tony Award-winning Broadway legend.
