About this episode
GGACP celebrates April's National Humor Month AND the birthday of comedian and Emmy-winning actor Brad Garrett (b. April 14) by presenting this ENCORE of one of the funniest interviews in the podcast's archive. In this episode, Brad talks about the camaraderie of Golden Age comedians, the strange appeal of the “Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts,” the comedic genius of Martin Mull and Fred Willard and the challenges of portraying his longtime hero, Jackie Gleason. Also, Sammy buys a soda, Liza sheds a tear, Gilbert plays the sitcom neighbor-from-Hell and Brad opens for the Chairman of the Board. PLUS: “Fargo”! Art Fern! In praise of Mr. Warmth! The generosity of…Jack Carter? The comedy stylings of “Greg Barrett”! And Brad remembers the late, great Peter Boyle!
