Dick Clark Productions

This is how the papers will be graded.

Who was Gary? He started a little thing called BPME that became Dick Clark Productions.

He was the president of Capital Records.

He ran part of the country for the biggest radio group in the world as a retirement job.

Then why are we wasting all of the money on this New Year's Eve when it should be a year from now? There's a lot of money being spent, and a lot of people are going to be caught with their pants down around their ankles when they find out that it isn't the end of the 20th century Friday night, that it's another year.

And the broadcast and Dick Clark Productions... which produces a major show at the New York Times Square every year.

Dick Clark, one of the most respected entertainers in America, is going to be caught with his pants down around his ankles because he didn't know that the century is not ending for another year.

And that's why I wrote the article.

It had my name and I went to school and that was about it.

But I got a call to be a PA on this variety special for Dick Clark Productions.

And at that time, a lot of my colleagues who were my peers, we all worked at Dick Clark at some point.

It's kind of an inside joke.

And Ry- you know, it's ironic, Ryan Seacrest bought Dick Clark's company.

He owns Dick Clark Productions.

And neither one of them aged until Dick Clark was young till he died.

And although Ryan Cre- uh, Seacrest is 51, he works too hard.

The movie only made about $14 million back in the day.

And by the way, it was Dick Clark Productions.

He did make some movies if you didn't.

The Dick Clark.

Come on, come on.

So he ended up going on, like, TV and saying, like, i made this film i can prove to you i made this but the ufo community was not having it they were so convinced and i think wanted to believe this was real it was the evidence we always wanted um yeah lieutenant colonel and the army actually was convinced like it's that this was real it's crazy crazy like to the point where eventually um it got picked up by dick clark productions and remade but well dean will explain that to us but um yeah that's the story behind the distribution it never did but somehow it still came up from the ashes like a phoenix

and that's what i thought because it felt like and it's hard to explain uh this to people maybe uh that aren't of a certain age but i think we're all of it like tape swapping was a thing.

Yeah.

Right.

Well, I think this is a good point to mention, too.

This became pretty popular that people at Dick Clark Productions saw it and said, this is awesome.

Let's do this.

way, great sense of humor.

He used to work at Dick Clark Productions all the time.

And I ran into him a couple times.

Very funny guy.
