Ted Danson is dangerously delightful... don't let him try to tell you otherwise. Ted and Dan bond over coming to terms with their insecurities late in life… could you imagine a world where the adored icon was not only shy, but thought he lost his funny, and needed Larry David to save him? That last part was about Ted, of course, not Dan. (Sorry, Dan). Ted also shares memories from his legendary time on “Cheers” and his magnetic friendship with the “whimsical” Woody Harrelson that has now culminated in their wonderful new SiriusXM podcast, “Where Everybody Knows Your Name with Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson (Sometimes)”. Cheers to Ted Danson… Listen & subscribe to Team Coco's “Where Everybody Knows Your Name with Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson (Sometimes)” on the SiriusXM app and wherever you get your podcasts.
