Paul chats with Burt Kearns, author of a new biography of Shemp Howard, one of the original Three Stooges. Lots of surprises in this discussion as Burt shares that many of the facts relayed by Shemp’s real life brother Moe in his autobiography just aren’t true. Kearns has done extensive research of this more complex member of the Stooges. Shemp had a career outside of the Stooges and you might be surprised to learn all that he did on his own.

Plus, is the cause of Shemp’s death what the doctors said it was? Lots interesting questions raised in this new book available from www.Amazon.com and signed copies plus more at: www.ShempBook.com
