On this day in 1919, Jean Vander Pyl, the voice behind Wilma Flintstone and countless others, was born. I've shared TV interviews and print interviews involving her before, but today, I've got something a bit different. This is a radio interview Jean did sometime in the early 1990s (I'm guessing '93?) with Satellite Surgery. If the name doesn't ring a bell, that's because it was a program that only played on English airwaves. Eric Wiltsher conducts this interview, which focuses on the legacy of The Flintstones, The Jetsons, and the experience of returning to Wilma for the 1993 telefilms. From this interview, we also learn that Jean didn't exactly have great thoughts on the 1980s Flintstones projects. If you've ever seen any of those, can you really blame her?
