I’m performing at the M Bar in Hollywood on Tuesday, March 13th at 8pm with Missi Pyle and Christina Moore.
I love tulips.
Tim,
Thanks for the mention! This show was exactly what I was talking about! Its all about the conversation. What a great article on http://podcasterusermagazine.com! Great pictures . . . but I thought you told me you were teaching sports before you came out . . . or did I hear you wrong? Wiki. . . here we come!
Hey Paul!
Thanks man. They didn’t include everything I said. I was taking care of athletic injuries and teaching sex ed at a boarding school. I auditioned for a school musical and the rest is history.
Wiki baby!!
Tim
Tim,
Read the article in Podcast User Magazine – very nice.
Interesting interview in the podcast as well. “You’re basically a furniture for the entertainment industry” – it’s so true. Sad but true…
Great Podcast, I liked the lead-up talking about the guy’s history and childhood. Clint sounds like a really cool guy, what a career he’s had and he’s still so chilled out.
By the way — Clint is 76, turns 77 at the end of May.
Thanks guys. Didn’t mean to add years to Clint. That’s the last thing he needs.
Tim
ps – Daniel – sweatshirt is coming. can’t believe I haven’t sent it. So sorry.
Did you see Clint’s mum when he collected his Oscar last year? She’s in her nineties, still going strong. He thanked he for his genes! Those strong Hollywood types like Clint and Kirk – they hang around for years. They only drop off ‘early’ when something gets them like Aids with Rock Hudson or Cancer with John Wayne.
Anyway, here’s to Clint being around a few years yet.
Oh yeah. I do remember his mom being there. That is amazing!!! Maybe we’ll have Clint with us for another 20 years.
Okay, NOW Clint is almost 80. Yes Tim, I’ve waited over three years to post that.
Hah! I love it Andrew!
