We always like to start the year off on a positive note and this show subject most certainly fits the bill. Betty White had a career in show business that lasted seven decades. She was one of America’s sweethearts and won over the hearts of many in her prime-time roles. Just when you thought she was in her twilight years, she had a career resurgence like we’ve never seen before. She entertained us until she was in her 90’s and the country mourned when she passed. But with all the people and characters she ran into during her career, was it all sunshine and roses? How did her co-stars feel about her? Was the beef with her and Bea Arthur real? We’ll dive into all this and more in the Betty White episode of AHC Podcast.
