August 20, 1990—League Director Joe Scheidler appears on the Montel Williams TV show to defend a 1926 Idaho anti-fornication law. The producers initially try not to let him watch the opening of the show from the green room, but he persuades them to relent. Once he’s on the show, Joe befriends several of the guests, surprising even Williams by drawing the audience closer to his side. Then Williams surprises Joe, asking him to close the show.
