An Interview With Marc Summers

Time to have a chat with Nickelodeon legend Marc Summers! We talk about everything from Double Dare props to the infamous Burt Reynolds interview with Jay Leno. Marc even shares some new stories about some familiar Nick at Night stars. We talk a bit about comedy legends , the longevity of his run on the food network, and some pretty exciting news about a possible NEW project! Marc is one of the kindest people out there and I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did :) Born in Indianapolis, he paid his dues as a magician, disc jockey, comedian and studio page in Los Angeles during the 1970s. When Jack Barry's announcer fell sick on The Joker's Wild (1972), 1973, Marc (then a 22-year-old page) filled in. That was his break. He began warming up audiences for network programs like Soap (1977), Star Search (1983) and Alice (1976), gaining exposure that finally led to his "organic" misadventures on Nickelodeon's Double Dare (1986) (which he hosted from 1986 to 1994) and What Would You Do? (1991).
