Have you ever sat down and then gone over with
the family. The one hundred and thirty nine TV shows

Interesting fact that is actually on the show. I interview
the grandchildren and most of them get up and leave.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Come on, Henry Winkley is here promoting the histories Hazardous
or Hazardous Histories, airing on the History Channel starting on
June fifteenth. This is about things we did here in
this country back in the day, that we would never
think of doing today.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Right, how about this? How about you feel that you're impotent,
you're having trouble. You go to a doctor and his
name is John Brinkley. He charges you in today's money,
twelve thousand dollars, and he implants goat testicles in order
(01:55):
to give you back pleasure.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Did that work?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
No, you know it's worth a shot back then, Right.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
The legendary Henry Winkler, I gotta talk to you about
that awesome picture you posted on Twitter years ago of
this great fish you caught and then you got criticized.
How did you handle all the criticism for catching and
what I assume maybe even releasing a fish?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Okay, so my wife and I love to go to
Idaho to fish for trout. It is beautiful, it is relaxing,
it is just a wonderful thing for us. We catch
a fish, we take a picture, give it a kiss,
put it back in the water, catch it next year.
(02:41):
And the criticism I always thought, you know, I bet
those people would want to be where I am right now.
You're jealous, I imagine, because we are very wonderful to
that fish. I give that fish caviare. I put a
caviar back into the fish.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Henry, I think, what's the new one? You're pitching side
for free. I don't know what any of these drugs are,
but I'm fascinated by you.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
All right, I'll tell you. I'll tell you exactly what
that is. My father in law he had a molecular,
molecular degeneration that could you can't cure it, but you
can slow it down. And so it was my pleasure
to let people know that that medicine exists in order
(03:28):
to slow their degeneration down.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
A there was there was a time on this radio station,
Henry Winkler, where it was you and Kareem Abdul Jabbar,
you with the eyes and Kareem with the A M. Yeah,
and your spots just ran commercial after commercial.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
It was great, A right, great story. Great story went
to the Lakers. Used to when I had Happy Days money,
I could actually buy and afford tickets to the to
the Lakers. We go to the locker room. There's Kareem.
He throws me his jersey. Wow, I had no idea
he was giving me a jersey that he played in.
(04:10):
I threw it into the laundry.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Oh, you threw it into laundry. You probably shouldn't have
done that.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah, Well, what's this story? And I don't want to
revive something old. But I was doing some research for
this interview, and it's like you and mister you and
Tom Hanks are described as cordial. Does this go back
to nineteen eighty two on the set of Happy Days
or is there something I don't know about?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
No? No, no. At that time, Tom was a working
actor and he took any job. You know, he took
a job, and we had a really good time on
this set there.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
But is there a beef? Is there a beef you
don't want to talk about?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
There is no beef that I know. There is no beef.
That is totally unnecessary. When I can tell you, I
can tell you about the flip flop railway.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Okay, okay, very fair enough.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
It was the first roller coaster. It never got to
the speed it needed to to go loop to loop.
