episode 110: Happy Days with Anson Williams
Anson Williams ("Potsie" from Happy Days) joins me to share how an unlikely mentor shaped his life and Anson also shares some amazing stories from the set of Happy Days.
Heard of the Heimlich maneuver? It's likely it's something you're aware of because of Anson. Anson's 'uncle' Dr. Heimlich was the inventor of the maneuver and Anson helped give it national attention.
Anson also shares how he almost died falling asleep at the wheel coming home from a director's job and how that led him to invent Alert Drops.
Get ready for some great stories from the set of Happy Days including a first-hand account of the birth of Mork from Ork. Anson tells the whole story of how that episode came to be and how Robin Williams created the iconic character.
We also discuss Anson's book, Singing to a Bulldog, and the mentor that changed his life, Willie Turner.
Tune in for some Happy Days!
