We are near the end of 2022 and we have had a ton of fun on Having A Ball Podcast this year! This week, we are throwing it back a year and Erika has chosen her favorite episode from December 2021 - interview with George Pennacchio of ABC7, Los Angeles. 
(Description from December 20, 2021):
As the streaming premiere date on Amazon Prime of ‘Being The Ricardos’ approaches, Erika of Having A Ball Podcast chats with ABC7 News (Los Angeles) Entertainment reporter, George Pennacchio.

Not only does George have an extensive career in Los Angeles covering and Interviewing Hollywood’s A-list celebrities, he is a huge Lucille Ball fan with an enviable collection of Lucy memorabilia.

We chat about what how his love of Lucy began, some of the items he has collected for many years and his thoughts on the newly released ‘Being The Ricardos’,. 

He tells us about interviewing Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem and the extensive research they did to capture the essence of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz.
