When you have seven Top Ten hits in a row, you have to be doing something right and Gary Lewis did just that in an extraordinary chart run in the sixties. His success had nothing to do with his famous surname ... oh yeah, he is the son of legendary comedy performer Jerry Lewis. Gary gave the world This Diamond Ring, Everybody Loves a Clown, She's Just my Style and Green Grass among a string of pop classics. In a very candid conversation, Gary talks about the fractured relationship with his famous father and the highs and lows of pop stardom, from Number One records to having to get a real job and being drafted by Uncle Sam.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
