I enjoyed watching Hollywood Squares e.g.

Also although didn't get agree with Phil Donahue politically, I found some of his televised talk show episodes interesting.

And the decades of love that he and his wife Marlo Thomas poured into and that she continues to do via St. Jude Research Children's Hospital(s) for kids with cancer and their families.

For a time Phil had resided in Centerville, OH south of Dayton and was also a radio host with WHIO7.

If I recall Phil and Marlo were both pretty heavy smokers. I wonder if Phil died of lung cancer?
