Summary

Rich and Brockman offer up some sage advice for a caller who’s soon to be a first-time father. Academy Award-nominated actor James Caan and Rich discuss the 50th anniversary of the release of ‘The Godfather’ and reveals that director Francis Ford Coppola initially wanted him to play the role of Michael Corelone which eventually went to Al Pacino, also reveals that he surprisingly looked to insult comedian Don Rickles for the inspiration behind Sonny Corleone’s acerbic demeanor, says why he was thrilled to co-star alongside acting legend Marlon Brando, and reveals the real physical danger he was in while shooting the film’s memorable tollbooth scene.  Rich and the guys debate who their favorite characters are from ‘The Godfather’ and say why Harrison Ford might be the most beat-up actor of all-time.
