KPCS: Michael McKean

Comedian, actor, musician, and LEGEND. This man is comedy royalty and should require no introduction, but just in case: Spinal Tap, Planes Trains Automobiles, For Your Consideration... heck, he was Lenny on "Laverne and Shirley"! Comedy LEGEND.

[@kt9166]

ten years of KPCS. Excellent, and well worth checking out the catalogue of conversations. Thank you, Kevin.

[@Rockmachine99]

I Just Love this Man. In Better Call Saul, he should have an Emmy for every season.

[@emersonian75]

Michael McKean is absolutely killing it on "Better Call Saul." Straight acting role.

[@ionfiter]

Super fun to hear from Michael McKean - what a varied and engaged career! Even though this is years late - I am really impressed and delighted with the focus and engagement Mr. Pollack has during a conversational interview - W.O.W. and :) Thank you, and the crew!

Great actor, great musician, so funny and seems like a genuinely lovely person.

Ppppppppppppò

[@Coolyguy27]

The thing that sticks in my mind when I think of Michael McKean is Lenny And the squigtones singing Night After Night. I think . I know Michael is a genius. Just watching that performance you can observe Lenny and know he put that all together. Not only is he one of the funniest men alive and a great actor. He is a great musician and vocalist. . A lot of talent is cramped up in one man. . And from what I hear. He is a down to earth nice guy. . Great show Kevin.

[@steveeuphrates-river7342]

I've really enjoyed watching him in his various roles- comic and serious.

[@stephengiese7549]

Very likeable and what a memory😀

[@stevenalred7606]

What a talented and smart guy that I never would have guessed from watching him in Laverne and Shirley.

"He's the best actor on the show." -- My dad while I was watching Laverne and Shirley

[@stuartfitzsimons2786]

This was fun. Thank you both for a very entertaining show!

Aww, one of the best interviews, wow! I LOVE Mr. McKean. ☺️🌹♥️

[@blipio2000]

Great interview!

[@kt9166]

Harry and David did the WHO'S ON FIRST routine, I think, on TV. It may have only been in the film CRACKING UP.

[@lynnturman8157]

Great job, Kevin. I find your questions to be very intelligent & thought provoking. Being a showbiz vet yourself, you know the right questions to ask. Love the show!

[@pty8s]

Cool dude. Extremely personable.

[@michaelmattice4986]

Great interview! Love Michael Mckean...He'll always be Laverne to me...Or was it Shirley?...I always mix those two up!

[@adamw116]

[@Mozart1220]

HEDDO!

[@Lily_of_the_Forest]

Michael was a very pleasant guest.

[@darkwitness2718]

Go to 9:36 for the start of the interview. You're welcome.

[@nomiddlenamenmn427]

Michael acted with Gary Busey and Mimi Rogers in Hider in The House. Good interview.

[@TheEleatic]

Michael Mckean is the Bruce Lee of baking.

[@andypike1234]

Nice, funny and talented man

[@jimmyholloway8527]

I watched this entire interview. I enjoyed it a great deal. I loved all the stories, all the behind-the-scenes stuff. Two hours later though, I still don't know if he was Lenny or Squiggy. I must have missed that part. TAP!

[@pretorious700]

Lenny

[@joemckim1183]

Its a shame that Michael did this interview before he did Better Call Saul. It would be cool for KP to ask him about BCS.

[@thatamerican3187]

Used Cars...These Prices are Too Effing High.

[@mark11967AD]

When you watch these “stars” being interviewed you realize how vast their memory recall and acute their associative thinking is. Amazing really. And to think he played such a moronic character so convincingly in Lenny. Certainly makes a good misguided prick on Better Call Saul.

[@sashek8451]

holy crap I completely forgot he was Lenny!!!

[@MrKaywyn]

A very interesting interview.

[@edavis1066]

Michael was interesting. KP was off his game. He interrupted a lot and his research was shit.

[@eliotmccann2589]

Scroll to 10:00 to actually hear the guest that made you interested in this clip in the first place. I am definitely doing you all a favour.

[@alguien1234]

rerevisionist well, we cannot judge a person just for an interview...

[@ili626]

Thank you - Why do shows like this think we’re interested in their random chit chat? Useful idiots does the same thing. Lots of shows do it. The only one I enjoy is Conan Needs a Friend, because he’s funny. All these other hosts are not entertaining personalities but they somehow think they are..

[@edavis1066]

@@ili626 Agreed. And so rude to the guests to make them sit there while they drone on and on about nothing.

[@burningmarl5664]

I like the contributions Penny Marshall and Ben Shapiro made from the sidelines.🙂🙂🙂

This is good inside baseball to an interesting industry.

[@arttraynor5720]

At 53:20 a mention is made to the club that occupied the same space as the present day Viper Room on Sunset Strip - that club was known as "The Central" and it was headlined Monday evenings back in the late 80's / early 90's by the famous Sunset Strip denizen Chuck E. Weiss and the Goddamn Liars ( the same Chuck E. about whose love life Rickki Lee Jones famously commented about in 1978 )….you're welcome.

[@lorimiller4301]

Cool.

[@andreo.7633]

16:47 lmao ur ride is here 😂😂😂😂

[@AirwolfArchive]

Much as I love the insight from the guests on this show (due to the totally relaxed, placid nature of it), can someone tell me if Michael talked about “SHORT CIRCUIT 2” and “D.A.R.Y.L.”?

[@alyzu4755]

I think the song Bieber referred to is by Dire Straits. 😊

[@davidstewart5905]

Wish they would have talked about planes trains and automobiles how many takes and so on

[@SeungYeonFan]

First time I've seen this show, is it still on?

You want something lowbrow that gets millions of hits, go watch a Beiber music video or the Kardouchebags! You wanna hear intelligent, enlightening, fun conversation watch Kevin Pollack's Talk Show!

[@Danimal300zx]

Oh My God has Michael aged.

[@lynnturman8157]

Danimal300zx As time passes, people get older. That's generally how it works, little sweetie living under a rock.

[@maryirvine8153]

Michael is 72 in 2019 so yeah, he is older, but he is still at it and going strong. 👍
