I guess we'll all have to wa-- ...SNIP... **ticking clock and news bump music ending and sirens** Host-....coming on, and...we have up coming... Host2- Randy Mantooth, the guy we were waiting for.. The guy from Emergency.. That's gonna come up next. Join us for.. Randy Mantooth .....after this momentary break.. Lady's voice.. Lives of par-- ***SNIP*** *** Ending news bump music caribbean feel *** Host- And we're back with EMSLive, I'm Darek DeSaunier with... Host2- John Bignell... Host- We...are VERY excited to have.. our next guest. He is... an actor, director, writer and producer and.. Host- ....and now he's on EMS Live. Host2- Sure is.. Host- Did you watch Emergency? Host2- I sure did. Host- Excellent. Host2- Yes.. Host- I think...everyone did. I.. On the Firefighter dot com forum, I didn't get to all the forums but.., almost, I think it was something like 57% started their career based on watching that TV show. Host2- Well, with 30 million viewers per week, I believe, it was extremely influential. And, we welcome Randy Mantooth, now,.... to EMS Live. Host- Welcome to the show, Randy. RM- Ah,, thank you very much. I appreciate it. Host2- How do you wrap your head around the fact that Emergency had such a profound influence on the EMS profession in the 1970's? RM- Well, I have to say that sometimes it's v-very *chuckling* difficult to wrap my head around that. Uh.. ah.. Like I've always said, ah... y--, When we were doing the show... We didn't know that.. uh,.. We didn't know that we were having uh,..the impact that we were having on on- the uh, emergency medicine america psyche. We were just mainly kids, uh, complaining, mostly about how early we had to get up and go to work! And, uh.. but uh, the show. I think it- I think it dawned on both Kevin and I, uh, once the show wrapped..., uh, when we realized that uh, when we first started the show, there were only eight paramedics in California and they weren't even certified to do what they were trained to do. And..at the- by the- time the show ended, seven years later, umm, uh, most of America was between four and seven minutes away from uh, emergency medicine in the field and I ..think it began to dawn on us ... Oh, well, we were ..kind of involved in a very important show. Host2- Modern medic-- modern medical TV shows have been around ..for....quite a while but..., when you look at the advancements of the health care profession. What made this one so special? What was...so different? RM- Well, I-I-I.. think it was the fact that it..it was so brand new! Uh, th-the concept uh, of paramedics just didn't EXIST...before that. I remember when I first started the show, they told me that I was going to be playing.. uh,. Johnny Gage, ...uh,.. firefighter/paramedic, the first thing I asked was..What was a paramedic? Uh,..Because I, uh.. had certainly had never heard of it before umm and uh, in fact I even said, Is that like a -a doctor who parachutes on in? Hosts- *laughing* Host- I think a lot of people asked that question. RM- Yeah, well you know, eh, To tell you the truth, we weren't that *laughing* f-far off! Uh, w-we did kinda drop in all over but, uh, out of helicopters every now and then, but, uh... I think th-that..it was uh, eh, th- that concept, th- the fact that uh, it didn't exist before. And I think what was uh, also very instrumental in in.. uh, capturing the imagination of, uh, ah, of america/ *SNIP* END Part One.. Part Two =========== RM-....of the time, with the fact that..uh, Bob Senator, the uh, creator and the uh,..executive producer of the show, wanted to make it as real as the- as he could possibly make it, given, you know, given th- the time that we shot it in the 1970s. And NBC was not used to, uh um, uh, having a show quite that real, on, eh, eh, you know, their scripted shows and to delve more into the uh, into the drama and uh, uh, Bob said, uh, the drama will follow. All we have to do is be as realistic as possible. Uh, in fact, his mantra was , If it didn't happen, uh, uh, we don't do it if the Los Angeles County Fire Department doesn't do it, we don't do it. If the Los Angeles County Fire Department doesn't use it, we won't use it. And as a result, uh, it gave it, uh, a bit of uh, r-realistic uh, uh, taste to the show, th- that uh previously had really not existed before. Host- Randy we've got uh, oh, a number of people in our chat room, who are just itching to ask you some questions. Ah, I think I'll start with the training you received. They want to know a little bit about the training you received for the show. RM- Well, we had to take the uh, the *laughing* paramedic course. Um, now uh, mind you, we didn't take the written course, uh. And we were, we were just actors, that we kept telling them. Uh, we were just actors. W-why do we have to take this course? And-and Bob, uh, uh, in his wisdom, said, I don't want you learning all this stuff in front of the camera. I want you to know as much as you possibly can, uh, before the cameras roll. So, uh, when you start to do an IV, I want it to look real. When you, uh, when you use the paddles, I want, uh, that to look as real as possible. And so, we- we sort of took the physical course, uh, uh, actually started an IV, uh, uh, on a real brave soul who actually let me. Host2-*chuckling* RM- ...let me come within five feet of him with a needle. Umm, but we were actually taking the courses and learning, uh, a whole 'nother language! Uh, it might've-might as well been Russian to me I- uh, but after a while you get, uh, y-you get pretty comfortable with the language. You get pretty comfortable with uh, handling a lot of the, uh, medical instruments and ah, and, as a r- and then- then of course, through the seven years of the show, you really DID become very familiar with the, not only the- the uh, paramedic uh, ah instruments that we were using, but, ah, being a firefighter, too. We were actually, uh, we were the first people, ever, to use the uh, jaws of life uh, ah, ah-on television. In fact, I was. It was th- I, uh, I've never h-held anything so heavy in my life. I- Uh, I remember uh, th-the first time I used it. Uh, ah, I jammed it into the back of a door of a big semi truck... Host2-*laughing* RM-..and umm, it slipped off the lip. And literally sent me flying. I didn't even realize I was, uh, it had knocked me down, until I was just sitting there with *laughing* this eighty pound heh, piece of machinery laying in my lap, saying, What happened? Uh, uh, so we got to, uh, we got to be on the cutting edge uh, of using, uh, a lot of equipment that was brand new then, which is pretty- pretty old hat now. Host- Well, uh, that's what made the show so special. The cutting edge aspect. RM- Yeah. An-an-and, uh, at the time, uh, w-we, uh, w-when we were, when we were first introducing a lot of this stuff, uh, uh, we were seeing it, actually before a lot of, uh, ah, a good majority of the, uh, fire departments all over the United States, had never even seen it, heard of it, an-and here we were, uh.. Host2-..using it... RM- ... blessed with uh, with uh, all this cutting edge technology. Ah, an- uh, of course, uh, the people w-who made this stuff, knew that they had a national audience. And uh, so they quickly provided it. And a, *chuckling* and of course, Bob said, uh, Does the L-Los Angeles County Fire Department use this? He said, well, no, they don't. He said, well, you know, until they use it, we can't use it. And so, all of the sudden, Los Angeles County Fire Department found themselves, uh, *laughing*.. Host-...getting lots of new equipment! RM-....*chuckling*..with a lot of, uh, with a lot of donated equipment! Uh, an-an, uh, ey-uh, And then we would, uh, we would actually be able to use it on the show at that point. Host2- Hey, a question coming from the World Without Borders chatroom. Ambulance Al is asking, Was your character based on James O Page, the late, James O Page? RM- Uh, no, no, He wa- well, somebody said that, uh, that uh, the name of, and I uh, had just heard this a couple of years ago, that the name was uh, ah,..my name was uh, umm picked, uh, at first it was gonna be James O Page/ *SNIP* END Part Two Part Three =============== RM- Umm, uh, and then James Page himself, uh,.. Jim said that he didn't want that. And so, Jack Webb then changed the name to uh.. Johnny Gage. But it wasn't based, on- on his, ah, on- on his uh, his character. Or, if it was, it was certainly, uh- nn, it was news to me. Host2- There's been a lot of ...seventies TV shows being made into movies. Do you think Emergency will have a reunion or.. a two thousand *indistinct word* RM- *responding quickly* No. That I can- I can say quite clinically, tha- that that, no, will never happen. N- Nobody *laughing*..You know, I watched the reunion shows an-and all they do is depress me... Hosts-*chuckling* RM- Ah,..*laughing* uh, nobody wants to see, you know, Johnny Gage get out there and go, *imitating an old man's voice* Hey, Roy! IV D5W. * then in a normal voice* uh, you know... Host-*laughing* RM-...Johnny and Roy... You just can't capture lightning in a bottle. Don't even wanna try. Um, uh, we've w-we're not old enough, I mean, w-we're too old to be paramedics now,..and, ah... Why would anybody WANT it? Uh, because paramedics now, everybody knows what a paramedic is. And I wou- I think.. that it's seventy five percent of the people, uh, out there, * sigh* listening out there are either paramedics, or, they have been, uh, uh, *chuckling* rescued by a paramedic, or-or treated by a paramedic, so, the only other reason to watch a reunion show was- would be to see how, ah,...how ah,.. Johnny and, uh, and Roy aged. Host2- Now one of our chatters wants to know... the favorite aspect of your ...character, the Johnny ...Gage character. RM- Well, I think it was the fact that.. uh, uh, they let me be funny. Ah, uh, and just, uh, and just turned me loose on that stuff. Uh, ah, and I had a- I had a really good time. I was, I was..having a ball doing it. Host2- It certainly would be exciting. We're going to take a moment, and we're going to talk a little bit about some of your future projects. And what's coming up, uh, next. Can you hold the line for a moment? RM- Ok,.Yeah, absolutely. Host- Great. And we'll be right back with... Randy Man(d)tooth.. COMMERCIAL-- I'd like to tell you about an attacker. And how my friend survived. He was hit in the head by a stroke and left unable to speak. He couldn't believe that it was actually happening and didn't know what to do. So he didn't get help right away. And it only got worse. His left side got weak, and he was helpless. Thankfully, someone realized what was going on, and called 911. If they hadn't, my friend wouldn't be here now. If you're attacked by a stroke, call 911 immediately. The sooner you react, the better your chance of your survival. I'm glad that he lived, but we're still praying and working on his recovery. So if it ever happens to you or someone around you, get emergency medical help, right away. Don't try to deny.. it's an attack by a stroke. This is Wil Downing, friend, of a stroke survivor. Strokes attack African Americans more often. Find out why. Call 1-888-4-STROKE. Or visit w w w dot stroke association dot org. Time lost is brain lost. A public service message brought to you by the American Stroke Association and the ad council. *Lively Carribean music and guitar* Host- As Johnny Gage on the 1970's smash hit Emergency, Randy Man(d)tooth unwittingly influenced the future of EMS in the United States. Will USAR1 have..similar effects on urban search and rescue? I guess we'll have to watch and find out. RM-Well *chuckling* I certainly hope so. That's what we're going to try to strive for. Um, uh, in the seventies, ah, uh, the paramedics w-, ah, was the new generation in...the uh, ah, next frontier, so to speak. And uh, um, and somebody had approached me, actually my partner, who is the executive producer of The Amazing Race. Um, ah, we were neighbors. And- nnn- we still are neighbors, uh, in California, uh, , He came over and he said. What do you think about doing a reunion? *laughing* And, of course uh, Kevin and I made a vow, y-you know, twenty years ago, that we would never do a reunion... Host-...sure.. RM- ...that we would let it, let it, ahh, uh, be...And let everybody just remember it as it was. And, well, I said, no, absolutely not. It would be like capturing uh * sighing*, lightning in a bottle and he said, well, there has to be... And I, and I ..also said that, you know, the same thing I- I ..I had said before, that i-it ..just... eh- there's nothing new about paramedics, there's nothing that we could.. we could bring to the table that would be, uh, uh, educational or- or entertaining. And um, and he said, well, there has to be SOMEthing out there th-that's new and innovative. And- and of course, I had still, uh, er..maintained a relationship with the Los Angeles County Fire Department and, uh, and a lot of the firefighters and- and, uh.. So I went and talked to them and- and they all said th-the/ *SNIP* END Part Three |

Part Four ============ RM- ...new edge, th-the new frontier, is USAR, urban search and rescue. That it's it's really going to, uh,..uh, uh, h-have a real major impact on...ah, the job description of firefighters. And, eh, o-once we looked into it, uh, we saw that, yeah, indeed, uh, i-i-it is gonna have a major impact. And we saw the, uh, the training that they go through and what they're training for. And, uh, we decided this....would indeed make an incredible show. Uh, and it would also educate, uh, eh, a-as well as entertain, just like Emergency did. And, uh, that's what we're striving for at this point. Host2- And how close are we to seeing you? RM- Well, you know, I don't know, I- I.. it's hard for me to discuss it because right now we're talking to two major, uh, networks, and I- I- I wish I could tell you which ones they were...but I can't ,..uh, uh, and so, we're hoping... that, uh, January, February and March, we're going to.. it's going to finally come, uh, come full circle and we're going to, uh, probably know whether we're going to get picked up, uh, to do a pilot or not. So, it looks like January, February or March, uh, right along in there...we're going to have, uh, a major meeting. And, uh, w-what I think the hesitancy is uh, for, uh, the networks, is that it is so expensive. Uh, it's an expensive show to do. Emergency was very expensive. And as we all know, that w-with everything ....going the way of reality, because it is so cheap to do, uh, and people do watch it. Uh,.. Host- I don't. RM-.....literally.. Uh, uh, uh, ..uh, you don't? Host- No, I don't like reality TV. Darek likes it. RM- I'm a.. well, good for you. Uh, you know, I ...because it really is hurting scripted drama. And um, uh, and - and like I said, o-one of the reasons why w-we're meeting with such difficulty, is that it is an expensive show. You have a lot of equipment. And to do, ur-urban search and rescue, to do U-SAR, you really do have to have major events, um, in this day and age--that's what keeps people in front of the television is ah, ehh t-the bigger, the better. And of course, with that comes a.. uh, a rather steep, uh, price tag. But, they also know that, uh, ah, if it is, uh, uh...eh, even if it is expensive, i-if it's a good show, and people watch, that investment will be paid back. Host- Now I understand...you're back with the L.A. County.. Fire Department, as you mentioned. RM- Umm hmm. Host-...You did ride alongs for Emergency. Can you tell us about about your ride alongs for the U-SAR project? RM- Uh, well, they been uh, they've been varied. Uh,..when we first started out, uh, um, th- the..especially with Los Angeles County, they only had one USAR unit, and by the time they showed up, the regular fire department who was there, already had things i-in control. Um, and so we got a lot of cancellations. So, we were getting a little worried about that cause we thought, well, y-you can't have a show about cancellations, uh, canceled calls. And then, as they started to.. increase the money, and, uh, and of course, Los Angeles County is in ah, sitting in a really great position, where they have the money to uh, uh.. t-to do this. They, uh, went and got, um, u-uh, three Black Hawk helicopters..and converted them over to, uh, fire..w-what they call.. uh, the Firehawks. |

RM-(continued)..And so now, they're acting as a support, uh, base for U-SAR. So, now all of the sudden, uh, and they've increased, threefold, the, uh, the number of uh, uh..of units that, uh, that are responding now. So, NOW the- the uh, the calls aren't getting canceled. They are showing up first. And, uh, in.. of course, it's as, it's uh, it's as if the rescues they go on are as varied as ..as the calls we went on for Emergency. And they go from the quite serious, to the ridiculous sometimes. Uh, eh, i-it there's no END to ways *laughing* people can find to get themselves into a LOT of trouble. Ah, and of course, after they're rescued, t-they become r-rather humorous. Ah, but when they're not rescued, then it becomes, uh, it becomes a disaster. Uh, but uh, e-everybody should just thank God that uh, there are people who train so hard.. These are almost like the Navy Seals of the fire department. They train so hard and s- a-and and f-for every contingency, that when they show up, rest assured, if they can't do it, I don't know who can do it. Host- Now you mention...Black Hawk helicopters...o-on your show. You're ...I understand you'll have.. paramedics on- on helicopters? RM- Yes. Right, um. uh. On the uh, on the Blackhawk helicopters. They always have uh, two paramedics on the show./ *SNIP* END Part Four |

Part Five =========== RM- ...itself. I mean on the- on the helicopter itself. Umm and so once a four man uh uh..team of USAR members.. uh run in. And-and and uh, do the actual physical rescue. And uh, a lot of them .. a good vast majority of them, are highly technical res- rescues. Once, uh, they're secured, then uh, i-if,..if they're in need of paramedics, then the paramedics were also, uh, uh.. the crewmen on the--on the Blackhawks, come in, stabilize in the field, and then..uh, uh.. then USAR then evacuates them, umm uh.. either by conventional methods with ambulances, and if they're in the position where ambulances can't get to them, then they will transport them as well. So it's a- it's a basically, it's a team of four USARs, uh, USAR members. Uh, and then, uh, level four firefighters, and then uh, Blackhawk helicopter uh, pilot, and then two paramedic, uh, paramedic/firefighters, uh, in- in the helicopter itself. Host- Now as the captain of this team, are you gonna be the- the hard *ss or the father figure? RM- I'm not entirely certain that uh- I'm actually gonna be in it. Umm, being the executive producer and- and also one of the writers.. uh, I- I don't know whether there's gonna be enough time in the day for me to actually be in this thing. Uh, e- if I do do it,.. I may just actually be.. a Chief. Um, uh.. who comes in once a week and kinda..gives everybody h*ll or- or- or pats everybody on the back. We haven't really decided. Our main.. our main objective is to get it sold. Uh, it's not so much as a job opportunity for me as it is, as this passion that I have of, uh, that I wanna see, um, uh, th- the credit given to firefighters and paramedics and medics and- and- and EMTs, uh, t- to get it back to the forefront without doing it in a soap op- on a soap opera level. Uh, I want it to be a procedural show. I so totally believe, that uh, eh that's what, uh, America wants to watch. I don't think too many people wanna ..know, you know, what your sex life is outside of the station, whether you're...a drunk and- uh, whether or not you're an alcoholic and you're tryin to beat it. I -I just, you know, that's hard for me to, e, uh, t- to think that that's what peop- that's why people turn ...that on. I think why people turn on is they wanna see something that they've never seen before. They wanna be educated. What does USAR do?.. Who does it? How do they train? Why do they do it? I think that's what people wanna watch. Uh, there's enough, uh, you know.. uh, family and personal angst out there in other shows that I don't think that, uh, it's really gonna serve any greater purpose having- having this show y-you know, talking about the ..foilbles of, uh, of the people, in their home life. I think that they just wanna see the.. what do they do at work? Sort of like Law and Order. Uh, you know, you don't- you never go home uh, with these people and- and- and *laughing* view..their problems at home. Basically, they're there to catch the bad guy and to try em and- and- and um, and put him in jail. A lot of it, uh, ....a lot of these procedural shows are the same way. Ah, I just...just show me what happens. And- and I wanna know who's doing it, uh, but uh, it's not that important to me. Host2- Ok, comment from M.L.C.E. Good for Randy to create a show that does that. I agree with you a hundred percent. It's good to see quality...as opposed to these..life's style dramas. Just show me the technical aspect of the show. RM- Right. Right. And- and- and show them in a- in a true fashion and make the characters ..real and believable. Host2- In a question coming from John M, in our World Without Borders Chatroom, would Randy entertain scripts from paramedics if the series take-- takes off? RM- Uh, yes. O- of course. Uh, uh, I- you know it really would depend on the writers on the show and the um, uh, who's actually gonna be the show runner. Uh, but yes, of course, but uh, it can't be a show about paramedics, uh, eh, e- just about paramedics. Of course, y- you can't do a show like this without having paramedics in it. But what it- what it basically is going to really focus on, ..is rescue.......But, but, in answer to your question, ...absolutely, I would. Uh,.. i- if somebody wanted to write uh, an unsolicted script, uh, I think uh, r- uh, I think it would be written, and uh, and if there's, uh, value to it, I think that it would be taken very seriously. Host- *taking a breath* *SNIP* END Part Five Part Six ======== Host2- Well, Randy. We certainly appreciate you ...coming and joining us this evening, uh, and I don't share the views of ..my partner here about reality TV shows so if uh, if you need a partner ....*deadpan* RM- * hysterically laughing and coughing* Host2-.....for The Amazing Race... You give me a shout... RM-*laughing to tears* Well, listen, uh, uh. My- my b- you know, *inaudible word* as- as I speak, I was watching it when you guys called. Uh, if it wasn't for the fact that my partner and my, uh, and- and one of my best friends,.. He's the executive producer on it, I wouldn't be watching it either. I sat down and I said, ok, 'cause I knew I was going to have to miss um, uh, I think it was Third Watch, uh, not Third Watch. I think I was going to have to miss, uh, West Point. And I said ok, I'll watch it. Uh, and I was sorta doing it as a- uh, as a favor, and I got hooked on it. I got hooked on, uh, on uh, The Amazing Race. But that's the only one I got hooked on. Host2-*chuckling* All right, well, that.. I guess I will..HAVE to believe you in that. But, uh... RM- *telling giggle* Host2-....those reality shows are...quite addictive. You're right. As... RM- Yes, they can be. Host- I haven't made it yet. I have not been addicted to it yet so.. I'm gonna have to work with ya, Darek, and-- Host2- All right... RM-*sniggering* Host2- All right. How about this..(To Randy) Who do you think's gonna win? RM- What? On this- on this new one? Host2- Yep. RM- Uh, you know, I- I don't know because I just sat down and I just kinda sooorta got acquainted with- and- and Screech uh, uh, Screech will not tell me. Uh, r, uh, by the way my-my partner's name is Amil Washington, and he's picked up the nickname Screech over the years. And uh, and I always- He calls me from the- from wherever he is, on the other side of the world, and I said, where are you? And of course, *laugh* he can't tell me and- and uh, I say well, give me hints. Give me hints! Host-*giggling* RM-... and uh, he won't tell me ANYthing..so what- uh, Usually, at the beginning of every race, he'll have a dinner over at his house and-- His wife.. and-and-and my wife and everything will be sitting around the table and he'll hand out the cards.... and he'll say ok, just by looking at their picture, who do you think is gonna win? Well, we've been doing this for three years... I have NEVER picked one right. Host- *chuckling* RM-..In fact, uh, the first year *laughing*..They were the very first ones to be eliminated. And so, I - I don't even dare hazard- hazard a guess. Host2- Now where can people find you now? You're ... on a soap opera? RM- (interrupting eagerly) Right now I'm doing, yeah, right now I'm doing- I'm in New York, and I'm doing, uh, As The World Turns, uh, for CBS. And um, and I'll ...be doing that for the foreseeable future. It's really great to be able to work, uh, uh,..you know, to be able to work as an actor and uh, and still be able to concentrate, uh, fully on a- on a ...a show that you're developing, uh. I couldn't- I couldn't ask for a better role right now. Host- And that's uh, all ...because you're a ..semi-recurring character? Is that right? You uh.. RM- Uh, nope. Nope. I'm one of the cast. Host- Oh, ok. Sorry. RM- I'm one of the cast. Host-..I'm uh, ....I'm not up to date on my soaps. Host2- (at the same time) He's not up to date on his soaps... RM- I'm sorry? *not hearing clearly* Host- I said I- I guess I'm not up to date on my soaps. RM-*amused chortle* You know..They're just like reality television. Be careful. When you watch one, they get REAL addictive... Host- All right. Annnnd....with that.. if you'd ....like to see USAR-1... Uh, you can.....go to....I- I understand your website has some....information to... RM- Yeah, yeah, uh...uh, what we try to do, uh, on Randy Mantooth dot com is- is uh, is try to keep everybody abreast of what- what exactly is happening with USAR.. Where it is..And uh, so just- just, you know, log onto Randy Mantooth dot com and if there's anything new, I constantly have them, um, uh, post any new information, just to let everybody know what- uh, what the timeline is looking like. Host2- We look forward to February/January and ..hopefully the launch of a new show.. RM- G*d, I hope so. Uh, you know, from your lips to God's ears. Host2-..potentially.... Host- Well thanks again for coming out tonight. RM- Absolutely my favorite. My- and, uh, and-- Anytime you guys uh, wanna- wanna call me just- just let me know in advance and we'll do this again. Host- Very good, we're- we're gonna take you up on that. RM- All right. Very good. Host- Yep. RM- I don't- I don't say that entailing. Host- * laughing* All right. Have a good night. RM- All right. You, too. Thanks a lot. Host- Bye now. Host2- Thanks for joining us. Host- *taking a big breath* Well,....that was Randy Mantooth. And look at all the-- Host2- I- I'd have to say, ...
