Chicago PBS station WTTW interviewed Mike Farrell this past Friday (October 30th) for its The Friday Night Show. Most of the discussion focused on his new book, Of Mule and Man, which was released in May of this year. The book chronicles Farrell’s 2008 book tour for his autobiography, Just Call Me Mike, and his activism but there was a brief exchange about M*A*S*H. You can watch it at WTTW’s website (click on The Friday Night Show on the upper right and then October 30th, 2009). I have also embedded the video here. M*A*S*H comes up at about 20:30 and Farrell answers a few of the most common questions he is asked:
Farrell also talks about turning 70, his website, Mike Farrell Online, and his wife Shelley Fabares. Thanks to producer Marc for letting me know about this interview.
