He coined the term \"oldies but goodies,\" and his beloved radio show drew a racially diverse audience from across California and beyond. California Report Magazine host Sasha Khokha got a chance to interview him for a 2019 story. This week, we're reprising that piece as a tribute to Laboe. Listen to the story in the audio link above.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original story, Feb. 8, 2019:\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>[dropcap]I[/dropcap] never knew who Art Laboe was, or what he meant to so many Californians, until I moved to Fresno, and started dating someone who grew up on Laboe's music. We would drive on country roads lined with orange groves and tune into Laboe's Sunday radio show, where people from all over the state would send in lovey-dovey dedications to each other. And then there was Laboe's signature on-air smooch into the microphone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My now-husband Karl was a low-rider growing up, cruising in his Nissan mini-truck with tinted windows, custom-painted graphics on the side and a booming stereo. He would blast Laboe's show, which played songs by artists like Rick James, Teena Marie, Tierra and the Temptations — from the 12-inch woofers, while waxing his car and cleaning the custom spoke wheels with a toothbrush.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time I met Karl, he had moved away from the low-rider lifestyle, but not Art Laboe, or the love songs.

So I sat at her bedside and held her hand and talked to her. When it was time to leave I said, “I’m going to kiss you now.” And as I leaned in to kiss her, Loren puckered her lips. I’ll never forget it. She had not fluttered her eyes or moved in any way the whole time I’d been talking to her, until I told her I was going to kiss her.

He was playful, sweet and smelly. I was around nine when we had to put him down because he was old and sick. I remember my parents telling me today was the day. I was sad all day. I hung out with Ripper and cuddled with him and he didn’t really want to move much. He was just laying there the whole time. I fell asleep for a while with Ripper, and I remember my parents waking me up and saying, “It’s time for him to go.” I remember looking him in the eyes and I gave him a little kiss on the forehead. He looked at me. It seemed like he knew that this was his time, like he was ready to go. He kind of smiled. And then he just rested his head. He passed and that was pretty much it. I wasn’t ready for it.I still miss him. He was the first stepping stone into my love of all animals.

I had a crush on this guy, Kyle. I found out he was also going to Disneyland with his family. So I texted him and we ended up meeting up at the park. We went on the Winnie the Pooh ride. We’d flirted before, so it wasn’t completely a surprise when we started holding hands. While we were on the ride, he moved his head around to the front of my face, leaned in and his lips touched mine. And in a second, my first kiss was gone. I was devastated. I pulled away. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We didn’t even talk about it. We got off the ride. We weren’t holding hands anymore. I said, “I’ll see you around.” And we went back to our families. That was the end of the day for us, and the last time I kissed Kyle. I hoped my first kiss was going to be with someone whom I was in love with, maybe on a mountain, maybe watching the sunset. That was the ideal. So having strayed from that was something I really had difficulty processing. Nothing’s going to be perfect, is what I’ve learned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11725973\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 1350px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11725973\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth.jpg\" alt=\"Tom in San Francisco.\" width=\"1350\" height=\"1800\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth.jpg 1350w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-160x213.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-1020x1360.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-900x1200.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1350px) 100vw, 1350px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom in San Francisco. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Tom H.)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tom, 47\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>I’ve been a gay man my whole adult life.

It was kind of custom that everyone on New Year’s Eve would go out, drink as much alcohol as humanly possible, and then throw empty bottles at the police. I wasn’t out to everyone, but Sarah knew I was gay. And then suddenly we were snogging and had this really passionate kiss. Eventually, we both blinked and finished. I think we probably had strong feelings for each other. Maybe it was just sort of sealing a friendship or something, in a crazy, teenage, hormonal way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Unlike first kisses, last kisses are often painful, awkward or sad.

I’ll never forget it. She had not fluttered her eyes or moved in any way the whole time I’d been talking to her, until I told her I was going to kiss her.

He was playful, sweet and smelly. I was around nine when we had to put him down because he was old and sick. I remember my parents telling me today was the day. I was sad all day. I hung out with Ripper and cuddled with him and he didn’t really want to move much. He was just laying there the whole time. I fell asleep for a while with Ripper, and I remember my parents waking me up and saying, “It’s time for him to go.” I remember looking him in the eyes and I gave him a little kiss on the forehead. He looked at me. It seemed like he knew that this was his time, like he was ready to go. He kind of smiled. And then he just rested his head. He passed and that was pretty much it. I wasn’t ready for it.I still miss him. He was the first stepping stone into my love of all animals.

I had a crush on this guy, Kyle. I found out he was also going to Disneyland with his family. So I texted him and we ended up meeting up at the park. We went on the Winnie the Pooh ride. We’d flirted before, so it wasn’t completely a surprise when we started holding hands. While we were on the ride, he moved his head around to the front of my face, leaned in and his lips touched mine. And in a second, my first kiss was gone. I was devastated. I pulled away. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We didn’t even talk about it. We got off the ride. We weren’t holding hands anymore. I said, “I’ll see you around.” And we went back to our families. That was the end of the day for us, and the last time I kissed Kyle. I hoped my first kiss was going to be with someone whom I was in love with, maybe on a mountain, maybe watching the sunset. That was the ideal. So having strayed from that was something I really had difficulty processing. Nothing’s going to be perfect, is what I’ve learned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11725973\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 1350px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11725973\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth.jpg\" alt=\"Tom in San Francisco.\" width=\"1350\" height=\"1800\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth.jpg 1350w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-160x213.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-1020x1360.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/TWH-teeth-900x1200.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1350px) 100vw, 1350px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom in San Francisco. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Tom H.)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tom, 47\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>I’ve been a gay man my whole adult life.
