And welcome back to yet another long in the oven but oh, so tasty episode of The Dana Gould Hour Podcast. Again, as I said last month it\u2019s a busy and hectic time here at Falcon\u2019s lair with season 3 of Dr. Z in pre-production and, as I said last month, another project with Mr. Goldthwait and road gigs and festivals and blah blah blah. But we\u2019re all working diligently. We don\u2019t dump shit episodes out there on you so sometimes it takes a bit longer thank you want it to so thank you for understanding.  Our first guest today, is a returning champion. Burt is the co-author, along with Jeff Abraham of The Show Won\u2019t Go On, the true stories of performers and actors who have literally died on stage. Burt has a new book that he\u2019s written solo, it\u2019s autobiography of actor Lawrence Tierney. Lawrence Tierney broke the big time when he came out of obscurity to star as Dillinger in the 1945 films of the same name, and went on to a career playing tough guys and criminal psychos. Unfortunately for Mr. Tierney, it was not a big leap. Lawrence Tierney was in jail as much if not more as he was on the screen. He\u2019d go up for drinking, fighting, fighting while drinking and drinking while fighting. Burt\u2019s new book, Lawrence Tierney, Hollywood\u2019s Real Life Tough Guy, tells the story of a truly larger then life genuine old school Hollywood nutball and I cannot recommend it highly enough.  Also, comedian Zach Noe Towers is here, Zach was the co-host of the show Sex Before The Internet, I figured what\u2019s a lot of violence without at least a little sex. Zach is based here in LA and is incredibly funny. Zach Noe Towers.  True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into origins and effects of the of the rumor, started in 1969, that Paul McCartney was dead. A rumor so pernicious that McCartney had to take to the covers of Time, Life and Rolling Stone to assure the world that he was not, in fact, dead.  ","author_name":"The Dana Gould Hour","author_url":"http:\/\/danagould.com","html":"
