Bob Barry’s Unearthed Interviews Podcast: Carol Wayne
On this podcast we rewind the late-night clock to the era of cigarette smoke, sideburns, and the king of double entendre, Carol Wayne. She was the platinum blonde with the breathy voice, and the unforgettable “Matinee Lady” beside Johnny Carson on the Tonight Show. More than a hundred appearances turned her into a pop culture icon of the 70s. But behind the laughter and punchlines was a life far more complicated than Hollywood ever admitted – from Vegas chorus lines to network TV, from cult comedy fame to a mysterious death in Mexico that still sparks questions decades later. This could very well be one of my weirdest interviews ever.
