Some of the best was local programming. Here in Nac, we had a guy that owned a furniture store in Lufkin and had a country and western variety show once a week with him and his wife as host. They had local “talent” perform every week and he and his wife did a picking and grinning segment where they sang and played. It was live and it was priceless. That's crazy. Substitute Corpus for Nac and every detail in your post matches our next door neighbors 100%. This would have been late 60's - early 70's. Do you remember the guys name? The guy in Corpus was named Frank Head. I think he owned some furniture stores in San Antonio later on. He always called his wife "the lovely Miss Martha Lynn" on the show.
You are not a good or nice person.

Ours was Hank and Juanita Huggins and the Double H Ranch Hour in Lufkin. The lead guitar was a local sheetrock guy. Juanita played the bass fiddle and Hank picked guitar and sang.

Well done! I was wondering if I was the only one. I only remember Sky King from the radio show. Our local talent in those days was Curly Fox and Texas Ruby.
