The Importance of Being Ernest P Worell with Justin Lloyd!

Geeklife HQ

On this episode of GeeklifeHQ we are speaking with The nephew of Legendary American Actor Jim Varney, Mr. Justin LLoyd. Justin, is fully aware that he is amidst a sea of Justin's on the show, is here to share some stories about his Uncle Jim, and to talk about the book that he wrote called " The Importance of being Ernest: The Life of actor Jim Varney". There is a Kickstarter campaign to turn this into a full length documentary film. This discussion led by Justin with an I, includes some great questions about the life of Jim, what he was like as an Uncle and of course his many famous friends, ( many of which we do impressions of on a regular basis!). We invited Justin to discuss his "Week in Geek" with us and talk about Superman as an inspiration and how he compared to Ernest as a character, the Twilight Zone, and of course "The U2 story" about Ernest Scared Stupid! This is along the vein of our interview episodes with John Rhys Davies and Penelope Spherris, so if you enjoyed those, you will know what to expect. And of course we bring the silliness to the episode, so give us a listen!
