If you missed Pat's interview from <a href= "https://thewilderride.com/2020/06/16/twr-listeners-lounge-pat-mccormack/"> last season</a>, we highly recommend you go back and listen. Pat does give a short, Readers Digest version of his backstory, leading to the creation of <strong>The Golden Rage of TV</strong> channel on YouTube.

Now, with hundreds of videos to watch, Pat is continuing to find new ways to bring the classic age of TV to life.</p> <p>Pat McCormack hangs out through the remainder of the show, which was an absolute blast.
