Television talk show host, politician, and Friar Jerry Springer passed away on Thursday at age 79 following a battle with pancreatic cancer. In this encore presentation, Joe Sibilia shares some of his memories of meeting Jerry through the years and revisits his appearance on "The Friars Club Podcast" from January 2023. In this episode, Jerry talks about being roasted by the Friars Club of California in 1999, receiving encouragement from former Abbot Milton Berle, working alongside longtime Friars including former Abbot Jerry Lewis and Henny Youngman on "The Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon," and being asked to speak at Rodney Dangerfield's funeral. Plus, Jerry talks about the trials and tribulations of appearing as a beetle on "The Masked Singer," reveals his favorite acts from his time hosting "America's Got Talent," reminisces about his eponymous (and infamous) talk show, and gives longtime "Tonight Show" band leader Doc Severinsen a lift!
