Kalaka (Double Up)

Kalaka (Double Up)

In the 1970s and early 80s, broadcast TV stations would stack PSAs in early morning blocks of programs, when most of us watching were eating cereal, waiting for the school bus. I remember this one with Noah in his bright yellow Mackintosh and the solo by the skunk with the pompadour. I was disappointed to learn that “kalaka” was not ancient Babylonian for “carpooling”, but if you say it in Hungary, apparently a bunch of people might get together and help you build a shed.
