Brock Yates was not born in a log cabin, nor did he learn to drive on a Stanley Steamer. However, he spent most of his adult life working for Car and Driver Magazine, writing 21 books and countless magazine stories – plus two major motion pictures: Smokey and the Bandit II and Cannonball Run (the latter based on the mad race he created in 1971 and ran sporadically until 1979). Today Brock Yates tells us about what’s happening in the automobile industry.

The Conversation with the Flying Plates
February 17, 2008 - 2 pm
Somebody says Rodgers, and somebody else says Hammerstein. But first there was Rodgers & Hart. From “Manhattan” in 1925 to “Bewitched” in 1940, they wrote hit show after hit show, and hit song after hit song. Together, they wrote songs that managed to be both romantic and witty whether their subject was a comic view of love as a sickness, the rueful discovery of what it’s like to be alone, or the need to find love despite the certainty of its failure. Their songs lived in a world shaped by the bittersweet. Join WXXI’s Fascinatin’ Rhythm’s Michael Lasser along with the talented Cindy Miller and Alan Jones for this musical, afternoon.
