This video clip comes from the classic 60s TV show "Batman." It is from the episode called "Ice Spy," which first aired on March 29, 1967. What makes this video clip related to Chicago media is the cameo appearance by WLS-AM nighttime DJ Ron Riley, who played the usher in this episode. You can see Ron Riley briefly in this clip starting at the 36 seconds point and lasting for just eight seconds. Riley was given the honor of a cameo appearance on the show since he was a big Chicago booster of the TV show, hosting the "Ron Riley Batman Club" on the radio and on WBKB-TV
(now known as WLS-TV) locally.
