Ep. 65 Cheryl Hines Pt. 2 Being A Kennedy, Taking Turns At Politics, Car Buying Companions and A Stay At A State Hospitals

Good Moron to you…yes, this is a lengthy episode, HOWEVER in this episode we finish our conversation with Cheryl Hines!  And we cover a lot of ground.  Among other things we talk about: The Kennedy rights-of-passage that she had to undergo before marrying into the Kennedy family which may or may not have included secret passageways underneath Martha's Vinyard and Hyannis Port.   Whether Cheryl had to take a closed door blood oath before the actual marriage vows were exchanged before being indoctrinated into the Kennedy family.  Spoiler alert: I just made that up. She didn't.   She talks a bit about the Kennedy family and how they're a lot like most families… large families that is, and they're a lot more laid back than we project in our minds about them.  She mentions the matriarch of the family Ethel who is RFK's widow and 92 years old. They had eleven children together. Eleven… So, yeah… big family.   We talk about our first jobs in Los Angeles when were struggling actors.  Cheryl went on to become a star and I'm certainly no longer a struggling actor… I'm just struggling.  Thank you very much. (rimshot) And a crazy story of Cheryl having to go to a State Hospital which is the equivalent of a Stanley Kubrik film version of The Shining which happened just as the very first Curb Your Enthusiasm HBO special was airing so she was literally on the verge of having a real career and there she is in a state hospital slash looney bin. We're Shootin' the Sh*t with Cheryl, which is a live streaming show of hers that YOU can be a part of and I'll tell you about at the end on the Modern Moron CLOSE So there you have it, The Modern Moron is now the official platform when Cheryl Hines wants to … um, have a platform.   Actually if you're a superfan of Cheryl's you can go to https://www.officialcherylhines.com/ that's all one word, she has an online show right now Called "Shootin' the Shit with Cheryl" and you can get some face-time with Cheryl and her guest.  It's a weekly live streaming event.
