Summary

GGACP celebrates the birthday of the legendary “Pit Bull of Comedy” — actor, comic and horror movie aficionado Bobby Slayton (b. May 25) by revisiting this interview from back in 2016. In this episode, Bobby sits down with Gilbert and Frank for a funny and freewheeling discussion of a number of essential topics, including the brilliance of Ray Harryhausen, the tragedy of Bela Lugosi, the haunting of Sammy Davis, Jr. and the greatness of “Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.” Also, Bobby roasts Hal Roach, hangs with Buddy Hackett, breaks bread with Woody Allen and “becomes” Joey Bishop. PLUS: Una O’Connor! “The Adventures of Ford Fairlane”! The return of Rondo Hatton! Bobby meets Otis the Drunk! And the death of Louie Dumbrowski! Learn more about your ad choices.
