Mr. Barker was a fixture of daytime television for half a century — first as the host of “Truth or Consequences,” from 1956 to 1974, and, most famously, starting in 1972, on “The Price Is Right.”

Bob Barker began his 35-year stint as host of “The New Price Is Right,” as it was then known, when it made its debut on CBS as a revised and jazzed-up version of the original “The Price Is Right,” which had been on the air from 1956 to 1965. (The “New” was soon dropped from the name.) He was also host of a weekly syndicated nighttime version from 1977 until it was canceled in 1980.

“A two-seater commuter car! The new Zoe is here, two-seater vehicle with four-wheel drive, delivers up to 80 miles to the gallon! Makes in-town driving the most cost-efficient fun you’ve ever had! And a surprise worth $3,890!” (Found in an episode of The Price Is Right from 1984.)

You wanna go outside? Outside? You wanna go outside? You do? You do? I bet you want to go outside. I bet you do. Welcome to Night Vale.

Cecil trips as he tries to run from the Beagle Puppy, but is saved by Sheriff Sam who shoots it with their shotgun. The Beagle Puppy is unarmed. Sheriff Sam takes Cecil into City Council's chambers.

City Council is still there and say that they plan to lure all of the Strangers and the Beagle Puppy into the Dog Park by using the remaining NV citizens as bait.

Cecil requests to see Old Woman Josie, they all escape through the ductwork and take Dana's car to Josie's. Cecil wants the help of the angels to lure and fight the Strangers.

Cecil also wants to cut a deal with Hiram. Dana refuses to make a deal, but she says she will find out what he knows about the Strangers.

They meet with Sheriff Sam who is leading a mob of around 50 people. Included amongst them is a leader from the Joyous Congregation (dressed in long yellow robes, a rectangular hat and wearing a large medallion), John Peters (you know, the farmer?) and John Peter (remember, the pharmacist?), Tamika Flynn and her teenage militia, Sarah Sultan and many ex-DB citizens.

They march through the city chanting prayers together, picking up Carlos, Abby, Steve, Janice and anyone else who is still alive as the Strangers stand and watch them. The Strangers numbers have also increased a lot and the Beagle Puppy stands at the head of them.

The Beagle Puppey speaks through Sheriff Sam, and seems to be starting to take Steve. Cecil grabs him and shakes him to stop him from being taken. The Erika's fly overhead, Hiram flies down to fight too.

The Beagle Puppy and the Strangers disappear, but nobody is sure exactly why. Those taken are normal once again. The town has power and water again. Cecil says it could have been their chanting though he's not religious that much himself he doesn't rule it out. It could also have been Khoshekh, who disappeared then reappeared quite hurt with a piece of a dogs ear in his mouth.

Janice says it was Tamika and her teenage militia. Josie says it was the angels. Melony Pennington says that she and Megan Wallaby created a computer virus which took the Strangers down (computer virus' are completely airborne according to Intern Kareem). Sheriff Sam and City Council say their plan to lure the Strangers and Beagle Puppy into the dog park worked perfectly. Michelle and Maureen claim a secret Beyonce album they were listening to got rid of the Strangers. Hiram also fought the Strangers but was not parodoned for helping defend the town.

However, the FOW claims that nobody in town drove them away. The Strangers and the Beagle Puppy chose to leave and they might choose to come back one day.

WEATHER: "The Queer Gospel" by Erin McKeown

City Council wear long black robes and have reddish-brown teeth.

When the Erikas are around, Cecil hears a cello and smells confectioners sugar.

All the Radio Station bathrooms are unisex now.

You can apparently tell which people are DB citizens by looking at their eyes.

Some basic chants that Cecil recognised as being similar to ones he learnt in Torah school are: "Please God, destroy our enemies, Amen", some really long gurgling sounds and "DE-FENSE!" while clapping in rhythm.

Kevin leaves a message for Cecil saying that 'many of his old pals' from DB have moved to the Desert Otherworld. They've made a little city with roads and a school and a radio station and it apparently looks just like the old DB. They've decided to call it Desert Bluffs Too.

Stay tuned next for a deep sigh. Deep. Deep. No, deeper than that. Good night, Night Vale. Good night.

Proverb: You can tell a lot about someone by coming into our office and confessing everything you know about them.

“During that Vegas engagement, Elvis became better acquainted with twenty-three-year-old Ann Pennington, a model-actress and future Playboy Playmate who lived in L.A. Her older sister, Janice, was one of the girls on The Price Is Right, a game show that Elvis often watched with Linda [Thompson] in the hospital. He’d met both of the Penningtons earlier that fall at the Hillcrest house. They shared the same Beverly Hills dentist, Max Shapiro, who telephoned Ann and said that Elvis was going through a rough patch after his divorce and needed to meet some nice girls. Would they see him? Ann was more of a Beatles fan, and begged off, but Janice had always liked his music, and though engaged, went to the house one evening. The next day she called her sister and said Ann had to meet him, that Elvis was ‘the most amazing, kind, sweet southern gentleman.’” (Nash, 2010: 544) In the picture, taken a few weeks later: Red West, Ann Pennington holding Lisa Marie, Al Strada and Jerry Schilling. The first time I saw this, I thought it was Olivia Newton-John! 🥹 * #elvispresley #presley #theking #graceland #elvis #smile #love #idol #music #iconic #vintage #style #classy #vintagefashion #kingofmusic #rockandroll #sideburns #blessedsoul #rip #elvisthepelvis #memphis #tupelo #soldier #elvislegacy #epe https://www.instagram.com/p/CpKz2EaNXEe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
