The King of Memphis Wrestling is Jerry Lawler

Jerry Lawler and a really cool shirt.

It is always a good time to sit down with Jerry Lawler. He has been a friend of Radio Memphis since the beginning. His career in the wrestling business is a fascinating thing to behold. He remains as one of the most popular wrestlers and personalities in the WWE. Always part of the cutting edge of bringing entertainment to the fans, the WWE has evolved to deliver their content to the masses online and has found a way to make it a great deal for all of their fans.

Along the way, we talked about his involvement in one of television's top 100 moments to this day. That being the now famous incident with Andy Kaufman. He talks about this great moment in TV history and the recreation of these events for the movie Man On The Moon with Jim Carrey.

Yeah, about that. Apparently, working with Jim Carrey was "difficult" since he was bound and determined to be in character during the entire production. This caused some friction. So much so, it came to a head during the shooting of the film and the story Jerry tells about this incident is fascinating. It's all right here.

Also in this episode, music from Star and Micey.

I hope you enjoy the show.
