In 1964 a young actor named Butch Patrick landed a role that would change his life forever.  He became "Eddie Munster" on the hit new show "The Munsters".  The show aired for 2 seasons and 70 episodes and Butch became a legend.

We discuss his career as a child actor, starting out in commercials, up through his young adult years when he walked away from it all to go work in the gaming industry at a casino.

He catches us up on his latest excitement as well, which includes his recovery, beating cancer, getting married for the very first time and moving into a house that appears to be haunted.

Stay tuned, at the end of the episode I snuck in a commercial I found for an old 900 number that Grandpa Al Lewis was pitching for his "Junior Vampires of America" Club.
