Frequently throughout the show, Red visits various members of Possum Lodge to see how they're doing, ask them questions, or introduce them or something they've done to the show's viewers. Usually, Red will find his fellow Lodge members in the same place – for example, he can usually find Glen Brachston working on his R.V. near the marina, Buzz Sherwood at his seaplane, Ranger Gord in his watchtower, Bob Stuyvesant at the golf course, etc. This recurring segment often occurs several times in a single episode, and happened more frequently in the show's earlier seasons.
This segment ran from the start of the show until Season 14.
