Before Tim Allen was America's favorite handyman on Home Improvement, before he was the voice of Buzz Lightyear in Toy Story, and before he became one of Disney’s most bankable stars—he was a convicted drug dealer facing life in prison.
In this episode of A Stain On My Name, we dive into the shocking true story behind Tim Allen’s 1978 arrest at the Kalamazoo airport with over 650 grams of cocaine. From prison time to primetime, from federal charges to Hollywood fame, this is the untold origin story Disney doesn’t want you to remember.
This is true crime meets celebrity scandal. This is pop culture crime.
