Another question he missed involved the location of the radio station Clint Eastwood worked at in "Play Misty for Me." Schoeck answered Carmel; the show's writers said it was Monterey.

"I still think I'm right," Schoeck mused. "I should have challenged them on that." Much of his experience is a blur: "I don't remember a lot of it, the intensity was so great."
