04 - Carl Weathers Tribute
Manage episode 402910319 series 3554274
On February 1st, 2024, we lost one of our generation's most charismatic and loveable actors, Carl Weathers.
In this episode, Nick and Bella discuss three of Mr. Weathers' most memorable roles (it was a daunting task to narrow this down to three films).
Apollo Creed makes his second appearance on the Gimme Three Podcast as we discuss Rocky III. Then, in one of his rare leading roles, we talk about the hidden 80s gem, Action Jackson. Finally, we round out the episode with one of Carl's most endearing characters, Chubbs Peterson, in Happy Gilmore.
Stay tuned through the end of the episode to hear Nick talk about Carl Weathers' integrity as a man and a performer.
