  1. Bob hosted a weekday morning cartoon show in Baltimore at WJZ before doing Wonderama. Wonderama ran on the MetroMedia stations, including Washington DC’s channel 5 (WTTG). From our home in Baltimore, we could easily pick up the DC stations. The Exercise Song, Has Anybody Here Got an Aardvark, and Finglehiemer were our favorite songs from Wonderama.

    • Thanks for the info. As a kid I just assumed Bob was local to L.A.
      I only learned in later years that he wasn’t.
