In a 1975 interview, One-Shoe First Mate Cooper discussed his fondness for watchin' TV game shows.

 

I don't know why. I just do. I love them. Do you want me t' name t' ones I like in order? I always start out by watchin' "Joker's Wild" then go from there.

A lot o' me friends are t' same way. Long-Eared Harry Nilsson for example. Begad! If I miss a show, I can call him up and he'll know what happened.
