BJ Hunnicutt actor, Mike Farrell, Tom Firey, and Amy Willis join the show to discuss the most-loved show on television, M\*A\*S\*H.

## Summary:

There was one TV show that was able to show the horrors of war, incisively critique it, but still inspire compassion for those affected by it. M\*A\*S\*H creators understood the power of comedy to hit just the right laughable notes between moment of introspection. Throughout this special episode of Pop \& Locke we ask Mike Farrell, who plays BJ Hunnicutt on the show, about his time with the cast and how he was inspired to create his character.
