  • Tom Arnold - Actor/Comedian Ep. #162
    Apr 3 2024

    Tom Arnold is both a funny and controversial individual. This is definitely an episode you won’t want to miss, especially if you like show business stories.

    Arnold is best known for playing Arnie Thomas on Roseanne, which starred his ex-wife Roseanne Barr, and opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger in True Lies.

    Tom has appeared in many films, including True Lies, Nine Months, Big Bully, Carpool, McHale’s Navy, Animal Factory , Cradle 2 the Grave, Mr. 3000, Happy Endings, Pride, The Great Buck Howard, and Madea’s Witness Protection

    Tom was also the host of The Best Damn Sports Show Period for four years, and appeared on Sons of Anarchy.

    In the early ‘80s, Arnold began his career as a prop-based comedian in a routine called Tom Arnold and the Goldfish Review. It was there he met a then unknown comic named Rosanne Barr. A year later he was brought in as a writer and eventually co-star for the television sitcom, Roseanne.

    Everything good and bad took off from there for Tom … from stardom, to addiction, to multiple divorces, to eventual sobriety.

    Be sure to lock-in March 20th on your calendar for what will surely be one of the more memorable episodes of A Mick A Mook and A Mic.
