Jim J. Bullock on Too Close for Comfort

View descriptionShare
 

Hour 2 (8.20) Jim J. Bullock is back in the studio with Tim, forty-plus years after Too Close for Comfort — plus the Smoke House cheese bread Tim can't stop thinking about. Tim and Jim go all the way back to when they worked together, and they spend the first half of the hour there: the Monroe Ficus years, the run on the John Davidson version of Hollywood Squares where Bullock sometimes filled in as host, and the stories that come with four decades of knowing somebody. The conversation keeps rolling into whether The Love Boat could ever sail again, and into the crew's ongoing and doomed project to butch Jim up. From there it's the latest in toaster technology and the unanswerable question of where morning news anchors find that much energy at 5 a.m. And Tim closes it out on the Smoke House in Burbank and the garlic cheese bread he can't shake — the steakhouse has sat across from Warner Bros. since 1946, and the recipe came from the original owners and got passed quietly down through generations of chefs, with hundreds of vacuum-sealed loaves now shipping around the country every week.
