Celebrity PSAs

Lungs, damn it.  Below is a heart-tugging CD’s worth of overtly earnest celebrity PSAs, courtesy of the National Jewish Center for Immunology and Respiratory Medicine in Denver. It’s quite a lungful, I know, but try saying it in Hebrew. After listening to this a few times, it really seems like Lloyd Bridges spent the better part of his career making love to small woodland creatures. I’m not sure when these were recorded, but since both Phylicia Rashad and Raven-Symone appear, I’d say that it was sometime between 1989 and 1992.  Too bad His Cosbiness passed on this. It could’ve been one Hell of a funny collection; perhaps with a lung-shaped Pudding Pop tie-in, or even a pair of dancing Audio-Animatronic lungs that exclaim “Gaw!” while rolling their eyes and making silly faces.
