I could have sworn I heard Shake mention Oprah. Was she around in '77?
Stacy - "We got a job"
Uncle John - "What kind?"
Stacy - "The Forever Kind"

If you turn on the subtitles he says: "I wouldn't send Hooper to see that woman." Referencing the character in the film played by Richard Masur.

Actually she had a career before she was famous. This was made in '77 so it's possible. Maybe she had a reputation in a smaller market first.
We got a job.
What kind?
The Forever Kind.

It sounds like Billy Clyde telling Shake "I wouldn't send Oprah to see that woman"
But that can't be right. Oprah didn't come around until the 80's.
