Bob Barry’s Unearthed Interviews Podcast: Ken Osmond (Eddie Haskell)

Today’s podcast features more nostalgia from the sixties. At that time there was a very popular TV sitcom “Leave it to Beaver.” On the show Ken Osmond played Eddie Haskell, Wally Beaver’s best friend and, at times, his worst friend. He appeared in many of the 235 episodes. Ken also appeared on the television in “Lassie,” “Ozzie and Harriet,” “Petticoat Junction” and “Happy Days.” He later joined the LAPD, working as a motorcycle officer. In 1980 he was hit by three bullets while in pursuit of a car thief. A bullet proof vest saved his life.
