episode 134: Ep. 134: Ed Begley, Jr. & GloZell
Is you okay out there?! It’s a brand new episode of Go Fact Yourself!
In this episode…
Guests:
Ed Begley, Jr. is a second-generation actor. Why did he decide to get into Hollywood? Because he wanted to do exactly what his dad did. Over the years he’s been nominated for an Emmy seven times, guested on game shows, and even had dinner with the Beatles. Ed’s memoir “To The Temple of Tranquility… And Step On It!” is available for pre-order now.
GloZell is a comedian who has endeared herself to her YouTube audience with catchphrases, green lipstick… and an extreme take on the cinnamon challenge. She’ll tell us about how all of that led to her scoring an interview with President Barack Obama at the White House.
Areas of Expertise
Ed: Electric vehicles, U.S. geography, the movie Midnight Run.
GloZell: The TV show “The Love Boat,” the Alanis Morrisette album Jagged Little Pill, and looking for a cowboy.
