Rusty got ripped off


Canadian Expatriates has a great piece of Canadian nostalgia on what eventually became a Canadian institution - The Friendly Giant.

Bob Homme started his program in Madison, Wisconson in the early 1950s. In the late 1960s the program was cancelled in the US and Homme moved everything to Canada. He continued to entertain kids until 1985 with new programming and well beyond that in syndicated reruns.

I only ever had one question about the Giant.

How come Rusty had to live in that bag with all the furniture?
