Description
Meet Paul Reubens -- better known as Pee-Wee Herman -- who came out of left field in the 1980s with a character for the ages. Paul was an improv player in Los Angeles when a failed audition for Saturday Night Live led him to create a stage show that was essentially an adult version of a kids tv show. There were cartoonish sets, wild supporting characters, and corny gags galore -- and presiding over it all was a man-child with an indescribable voice named Pee-Wee. That first success led to movies, tv, and Broadway (with a few bumps along the way). As always find extended cuts in the comments at laughtracksradio.com and thanks for sharing our shows!
