THE 90's Podcast - S06-E05 - Man on the Moon (1999)
WHAT’S UP EVERYBODY!?! This week John and Sarah sit down and talk about the Andy Kaufman biopic Man on the Moon. We look at how a comedy icon took on the role of a comedy icon, and almost lost himself, and lost a few friends along the way. We analyze the behind the scenes antics and see if the man we see on screen is ACTUALLY Andy Kaufman, or just the image that we are meant to believe. We look at how wrestling legend Jerry “The King” Lawler took to Carry’s portrayal, and how a wad of spit almost sent Carry to the hospital. We discuss the role of Courtney Love, and how one of the 90’s most controversial people, was on such good behavior, that she stayed away from the insanity. That plus discussions on Taxi, 80’s SNL, an obligatory mention of Tony Clifton, and we discuss the ultimate Kaufman question: Did he fake his own death?
Also we discuss the inner workings and staff of a “Bahamian” based Burger King, and a reminder TO STAY INDOORS AND WASH YOUR DAMN HANDS!!!
