Kenny Curtis: My name is Kenny Curtis. I am the co-author of Greeking Out: Epic Retellings of Classic Greek Myths. I'm also the host of the podcast of the same name, Greeking Out. I've been in radio for a long time, and I'm Kenny Curtis. And this is a true story because when I was a youngin' and I wanted to be an actor, I had to register for the Screen Actors Guild and no two actors can have the same name. And there was a guy named Ken Curtis, and he played a character, an old cowboy called Festus on a cowboy TV show called Gunsmoke. So, he had the name, so I had to be Kenny Curtis because he was Ken Curtis. He's also one of the vultures in Disney's Robinhood, the animated movie, if that matters to you.
