A vivid picture of an honest man in the insane world of television. Highly recommended. -- Midwest Book Review

Cleveland TV legend Big Chuck Schodowski tells hundreds of funny and surprising stories from a lifetime in television--in his familiar, good-natured, Cleveland-to-the-bone style.

Since 1960, Chuck has been on camera, behind the camera, and in the director's chair. He collaborated with Ernie Anderson on the groundbreaking Ghoulardi show, and continued to host a late-night show across four decades--the longest such run in TV history. He wrote and directed two thousand hilarious sketches that were watched religiously by adoring fans.

Revisit favorite characters including the Kielbasy Kid, Certain Ethnic Guy, Ben Crazy, and many more. Chuck's stories will entertain fans--and anyone who enjoys behind-the-scenes tales of television and celebrities.
