A neighborly quote, a Rexall sign, and a life changing launch. Sit tight for a good story.

Evening, friends. Jack Reynolds here. January 22 always takes me back to 1955, when Apollo 5 lifted off in that life changing moment. Stick close for the Hemi Orange Dodge that could rumble your driveway and the reader memory of a family trip that feels like it was yesterday. Brings it all back, doesn’t it?

On January 22, 1968, the Apollo 5 mission lifted off from Cape Canaveral without a crew. Its job was to test the lunar module, the spidery spacecraft that would later land men on the moon. We watched it on our console TV, wondering about the future. Click to read about the critical test that paved the way for the moon landing.

That 1970 Challenger R/T in Hemi Orange was a stoplight king. It listed for about $3,500 new, but a numbers-matching 426 Hemi car now brings well over $100,000. With 425 horsepower, it could melt the tires right off the rim. My buddy’s dad kept his in the garage like a museum piece. Click for the factory specs and the story behind the iconic shaker hood.

That glowing Rexall sign meant a soda fountain, comic books, and a friendly pharmacist who knew your name. A chocolate phosphate cost a dime back then. Today, a chain pharmacy likely stands in its place. My mom would stop for aspirin and always leave with a treat. Click to see the full street view and what replaced the old corner store.

“Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, oh what a relief it is!” That jingle from 1976 turned a stomach remedy into a pop culture hit. It ran for years and made brand recognition soar. My dad would hum it after a big holiday meal. Click to watch the classic animation and get that catchy tune stuck in your head all over again.

Melissa Gilbert was the heart of "Little House" as Laura Ingalls, earning about $15,000 an episode at the show's peak. Today, she's a fierce advocate for children's health and has written bestselling memoirs about her journey. My family watched her every week.

Tonight’s ‘Your Memory’ comes from Carol in Arizona, remembering the summer of 1965 when her parents packed all four kids into the wood-paneled station wagon. They drove from Phoenix to see the Grand Canyon, stopping for roadside picnics. Carol says the vastness of the canyon made her feel both tiny and part of something huge. My dad always said a family that travels together stays together.

Tonight’s Quote comes from Andy Griffith, who said, "All I try to do is be friendly and neighborly, and that's all anybody needs." He brought that quiet, steady kindness to every screen. It reminds me that a simple hello can make a whole street feel like home. You can learn more about him here. Click to read about the man behind the gentle smile.

See you tomorrow. Same time, same station.
