The Incomparable & Illustrious, Laraine Newman!

from What We Thought Would Happen · host Laura Kightlinger & Daniel Webb

Daniel and Laura are joined by the incomparable, illustrious, Laraine Newman. Details from Laraine's revelatory book “May You Live in Interesting Times” available exclusively on Audible, such as growing up in LA on the same street as Groucho Marx,  hanging out at Duke’s, meeting Fred Astaire, SNL, the Coneheads, Gilda, Jane, the Dating Game sketch, and meeting David Bowie. A brief nod to Laura’s shitty time on SNL, Roseanne and the prison talkshow sketch, and a heartfelt “thank you" to the Budweiser Frogs.  Daniel’s encyclopedic knowledge of Hollywood icons amazes and titillates throughout with a Stagedoor nugget and praise for Designing Women.WWTWH YouTube ChannelLaura KightlingerTwitter: @KingKightlingerInsta: @laura_kightlingerWeb: laurakightlinger.comTony Camin:Twitter: @tonycaminInsta: @tony.caminWeb: tonycamin.comMUSIC:Jimmy HarryTwitter: @bonsaimammalInsta: @thejimmyharryWeb: jimmy harry.com
