Summary

Actor Charlie Sheen joins Rich in-studio to discuss his new memoir and ‘AKA Charlie Sheen’ Netflix documentary, reveals why he’s a Cincinnati Reds fan despite growing up in Malibu, marvels over the singular greatness of Dodgers 2-way star Shohei Ohtani, recounts the time he bought out 2000 seats in the Angels’ outfield section to give him a better shot at catching a Cecil Fielder home run ball, reveals that he, not Ralph Macchio, was the original choice to play ‘The Karate Kid,’ explains how he got into the alcohol-free beer business, and shares some great stories about meeting Jack Nicholson, making ‘Platoon,’ ‘Wall Street,’ ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,’ and ‘Major League’ in a round of ‘Celebrity True or False.’ In the NFL Week 5 edition of ‘Higher Register’ Rich and the guys offer up their solid-but-not-all-that-convincing endorsement of the Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, and Baltimore Ravens backup QB Cooper Rush.
