Randy West on Robert Stack and Desi Arnaz

TVC 599.1: Part 2 of a two-part conversation that began just before Thanksgiving with longtime television announcer, voice artist, and raconteur Randy West. Randy’s latest book, TV Inside Out: Flukes, Flakes, Feuds and Felonies, provides a backstage pass to the truest form of reality TV: both the outrageous behavior that many stars exhibit in their pursuit of success, and the inspiring stories of television performers who beat the odds and enjoy their success while still living by The Golden Rule. Many of the stars profiled in TV Inside Out are people that Randy either worked with in television or encountered directly in the course of his career. In this segment, for example, Randy relays a conversation that he had many years ago with Robert Stack about the controversy that swirled behind the scenes of The Untouchables, prior to production of that show’s two-hour pilot, that included mob threats against the life of executive producer Desi Arnaz.
