Summary
Her husband, Desi Arnaz, cheated on her constantly. They wanted children together, but suffered several miscarriages. By the end of the decade, Lucy’s only unequivocal professional success was a comedy radio show called “My Favorite Husband.” The network wanted to rework the show for a new thing called television, but Lucy wasn’t so sure.
Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from:
“Love, Lucy,” by Lucille Ball
“The Plot Thickens” podcast from Turner Classic Movies
“The Life of Lucille Ball,” by Kathleen Brady
