Larry Hankin, Part 2
Listen now
Description
Larry and I continue our conversation where we left off with his attendance at Lenny Bruce's last performance. We then get into what it's like for an actor in the trenches constantly hustling for work. He tells me about freaking out Jerry Paris, learning from James Garner, and working on Escape From Alcatraz. Bonus: Clint Eastwood recites limericks, Edie McClurg's comedic chops, and the surreal atmosphere of interviewing people at an orgy. His new memoir, The Guy: A Cautionary Memoir, is available now and I can not recommend it enough.
