One segment of an 8-part interview with legendary announcer Don Pardo. He discusses joining NBC in 1944 as a staff announcer and described his trademark announcing style. He talked about his long association with several game shows including the original The Price Is Right, Choose Up Sides (where he appeared on-camera as "Mr. Mischief"), and the original Jeopardy!. Lastly, Pardo speaks about the series for which he is most closely associated, Saturday Night Live. He then acknowledges leaving his post as staff announcer at NBC having held the position for a record 60 years and 6 months.
