451: Butch Patrick is Skywalking Through Neverland
This is a discussion with Eddie Munster himself – Butch Patrick! Richard grew up watching Butch Patrick in just about everything from Shazam (1974), Lidsville (1971-72), The Phantom Tollbooth (1970), The Munsters (1964-66), and The Monkees 1967 Christmas episode. In that episode Butch plays Melvin Vandersnoot, a child of 10 going on 65 with no Christmas spirit. Of course, The Monkees change that by the end, and it’s a heartwarming tale that Richard and Sarah watch every year on Christmas day. Butch Patrick shares behind-the-scenes stories of working as a child actor in all of these nostalgic series and films. We recommend watching the YouTube version of this show because Richard spent a long time editing in clips of the various stories he shares: https://youtu.be/GVqsOVH2m0E
