6/4/26 - 40th Anniversary Special- Actor Alan Arkin

About this episode

The episode features a replay of an interview with actor Alan Arkin, celebrating the host's 40th anniversary with WGTD.

In honor of my 40th anniversary with WGTD (my first day at the station was May 27, 1986), I'm replaying some noteworthy Morning Show interviews from the past. This interview with Oscar and Tony Award-winning actor Alan Arkin is one of the richest conversations I ever had with someone from the world of entertainment. The occasion of this interview was the publication of his memoir "Alan Arkin: An Improvised Life" in 2011.
