Talk Show Confidential

Most of the people reading this probably grew up watching Bill Boggs on TV. I remember Midday with Bill Boggs on Channel 5. And I was actually shocked to hear that his run on the Food Network was over 10 years! Corner Table with Bill Boggs. Wow.

This one man walk down memory lane was a treat at the Triad Theater. Bill Boggs, a 4 time Emmy Award Winner, estimates that over his entire career he has interviewed over 6000 people. That's up there! He's in his 60's now - and looks damn good. But the show, which splices in video clips, brings you back to many of his live TV days where he was one of the sexiest men on TV! And boy, has he interviewed the great ones. And if you didn't already know, he takes credit for inventing his trademark format - the talk show where the host and the guest are both eating!

Filled with memories, back-stories, and a little gossip - Bill Boggs makes a sentimental debut on stage!
