Episode 409.
Richard Tyson.

Richard Tyson is a gifted actor known for his iconic roles in Three O'Clock High, Kindergarten Cop, There's Something about Mary, Kingpin, Blackhawk Down and many more.

The interview is essentially two parts.
The first half is Richard's life, the second half is Richard's filmography.

Time Stamps here:

Some key points Richard and I touch on:

1. He is a Cornell Graduate (Masters), attended the Naval Academy.
2. He grew up with four brothers in Alabama.
3. His absolutely iconic role in "Three O'Clock High".
4. Upon rewatch, Jerry might be a slight weasel and this movie deserved more love.
5. I ask Richard who was a tougher challenge, the ferret in Kindergarten Cop or Jerry in Three O'Clock High. 
6. His relationship with the Farrelly Brothers and Steven Spielberg.
7. Three O'Clock High is the most underrated movies to make it out of the 80's and deserves a rewatch for any 80's kid.
8. Kindergarten Cop had no business being that good.
9. Buddy Revell is frightening, because he's real and everyone knows a Buddy Revell.
10. In my opinion Three O'Clock High is as good as if not better than The Breakfast Club.

And so much more.

Welcome the awesome, Richard Tyson.
