The Uncle Floyd Podcast
Join legendary entertainer, “Uncle Floyd” Vivino, as he and his long-time co-star and friend, Scott Gordon, answer your questions, chat, and probably disagree about anything showbiz. Between these two, there is over 110 years of entertainment and performing experience, including the nearly 30 years of the television classic UNCLE FLOYD SHOW. Among some of the people who watched and loved THE UNCLE FLOYD SHOW were The Ramones, Paul Simon, David Bowie (who called Uncle Floyd ”One of the BEST ’Barrelhouse’ piano players I’ve ever heard”), Iggy Pop, John Lennon, and dozens of others. You never know who might be listening with you.
