The live performance was more than 15 minutes longer than the show heard on the air and featured an additional Kids' Radio skit ("Sam Maritan, Private Eye" from 114: The Big Broadcast.) Much of the music featured in this episode originally appeared in Video 8: Go West Young Man. Contains a KIDS Radio broadcast. This is the only episode to feature a second performance of a Kids Radio sketch—Young Guns Bonanza from 141: Over the Airwaves.)
