SHREVEPORT, La. — Long before Miss Rachel, Barney, or even Sesame Street, KTBS brought the magic of children’s programming to local viewers with a show called Romper Room. Airing in the late 1950s and ’60s, the live broadcast helped shape childhood memories across the ArkLaTex. As part of KTBS’s 70th anniversary celebration, veteran reporter Rick Rowe took viewers on a nostalgic journey through the station’s early years, starting with a beloved local version of Romper Room hosted by Miss Barbara.

SHREVEPORT, La. - It is one of the most lethal aircraft in America's Air Force; the F-18 Hornet. One of the pilots of that incredible aircraft was born and raised in Shreveport. His name is Mitch McCallister, our Hometown Patriot. The Barksdale Defenders of Liberty air show is coming next weekend. Growing up on that base Rick has been to many of those shows but never flew in one of the aircraft. However, the same cannot be said for a young man from Shreveport who went to Captain Shreve High School.
