Show Notes
Host Manny Pacheco profiles the life and times of Mickey Rooney. For almost a decade, the actor topped the charts as Hollywood's most popular movie star and he could sing and dance as well. His Andy Hardy series was extraordinarily profitable for MGM. Also, a partnership with Judy Garland may be his most endearing legacy.
His volatile personal life also was tabloid fodder. Rooney married eight times, including to Ava Gardner and Martha Vickers. His eighty-year career remains singularly iconic.
In this episode, we honor the memory of the award-winning journalist and co-host Gary Lycan. He will be missed.
