Many of the recordings are of his appearances on the television program <span class=\"title\">Theater Talk</span>, usually with other critics, discussing the current theater scene. Simon often appeared briefly on news or arts programs talking about particular theater productions or actors, including shows on the CBS network, and on foreign productions. One-off appearances include an episode of <span class=\"title\">A Current Affair</span> in which Simon watches and reacts to <span class=\"title\">The Cosby Show</span>; an episode of <span class=\"title\">The Dick Cavett Show</span>; and an episode of <span class=\"title\">The Writer's Role</span> in which Simon interviews Susan Sontag. There is also a recording of Simon's contentious appearances on David Susskind's television show in the early-1970s.</p> <p>Radio appearances include episodes of WNYC's <span class=\"title\">Leonard Lopate Show</span>.
