Betty Marion White, born January 17th, 1922, was a spot-on Capricorn, talented producer, writer, actor, mentor, and activist, with a “live with it” attitude fit for nothing short of royalty.
Although born during the Great Depression, she pursued the career of her dreams, working well into her late 80’s without skipping a beat. Betty lived to be 99 years old, peacefully passing away on December 31, 2021, just 18 days shy of her 100th birthday.
In Betty’s honor, we’re enjoying a dirty martini with two and a half ounces of vodka, a half an ounce of dry vermouth, half an ounce of olive juice. We miss her dearly so, please raise your glass with us as we toast to the beautiful, iconic golden girl who will always be in our hearts!
In this episode, you’ll also hear:
Must-listen moments:
[00:03:08] She was the queen of TV. Some called her the Queen of Sitcoms, some called her the Queen of Game Shows, you could call her the Queen of America's Heart…everything!
[00:45:06] She definitely ended up on the right side of history there. She ended up being a huge advocate for racial injustice. And Arthur Duncan, who would go on to have a very successful career as a dancer to this day still credits Betty White for his jumping-off point of his career.
[01:28:22] She is in the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest female career in f***ing entertainment. Eight Emmys, a Grammy, three SAGS, a star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She's in the television Hall of Fame.
