Chevy Chase

There is a reason that Chevy Chase has had a four decade-long run on TV and as a movie star - the dude is freakin' hilarious.  But, as we've seen with many of our favorite stars over the years, there is more behind the Clark Griswold persona than many of us know about.  Chase was one of brains behind the early Saturday Night Live years, which catapulted him into the spotlight, but the stories many have told about run-ins and incidents with Chase may shed a different light on him.  We'll dive into these stories and much more in the latest episode of AHC Podcast.
