From Both Sides of the Camera

Host Ed Robertson’s latest guest on TV Confidential, his radio talk show about television, is American actor and director Lou Antonio. You may remember Antonio for his role in the 1967 film Cool Hand Luke, or for his various appearances in small-screen series such as Naked City, Star Trek, The Mod Squad, The Snoop Sisters, and Dog and Cat. Or perhaps you’re familiar with this now 84-year-old Hollywood fixture as a consequence or reading his 2017 autobiography, Cool Hand Lou: My Fifty Years in Hollywood and on Broadway (McFarland).

In any case, the multitalented Mr. Antonio is Robertson’s principal guest on this week’s two-hour edition of TV Confidential. (The episode will also feature a tribute to Fred Rogers, the late host of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, who died 15 years ago, on February 27, 2003). The program debuted last night with a broadcast on Share-a-Vision Radio, KSAV.org, but it will be repeated on several stations from now through Monday night, most if not all of which offer live listening on the Web. Check here for the broadcast schedule.
