The Justin Root Show
From Castle to Carol
In my very first podcast episode you will learn how Carol Burnett became my very first podcast guest. I talk about discovering her 1986 autobiography and how it changed my life when I found it on a dusty shelf in the Castle High School library. I open up about its inspiration and how it led me to move across the country at 18 to chase my dreams. Over 20 years later I’m still loving Hollywood as much as I did back then and Carol Burnett still remains my favorite person in show business. So much so that I made a documentary story of her life on my YouTube channel which she saw. In this episode you’ll learn what happened after she saw it and how I ended up sitting at the family table at Carol’s 90th birthday party celebration on NBC. That lead to an unforgettable one-hour, sit down interview which I’ll tell you all about.
