Episode description

TVC 682.3: Ed and guest co-host Chuck Harter welcome award-winning producer, director, writer, journalist, and author Burt Kearns. Burt's latest book, SHEMP! The Biography of The Three Stooges' Shemp Howard: The Face of Film Comedy, not only takes a deep dive into the life and career of Shemp Howard—one of the original members of The Three Stooges and, in real life, the older brother of Moe Howard and Curly Howard—but debunks many myths both about Shemp's career before and during The Three Stooges and about Shemp's personal life, including some myths that were perpetuated by either Moe Howard or members of Moe's family. SHEMP! is available through Applause Books.
