The Most Killed Man In Hollywood - Danny Trejo - #347

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
What's happening, people? welcome back to the show. My guest today is the one and only Danny Trejo. He's an actor and a restaurateur, plus he happens to probably have the most recognizable face in Hollywood history. He's just written a new memoir about his life, and today we get to hear his craziest stories from seven decades of doing mad shit. Expect to learn what it was like to meet Charles Manson in jail, who the hardest guy on set at Con Air was, how Danny nearly ended up with the death penalty, whether he actually robbed Antonio Banderas, how he saved Keifer Sutherland from a psychopath and much more. Like, what is there to say? You know, it's Danny Trejo, the guy is a living legend, and for all that he was a hard man in his early years and then played even harder men, I suppose, on screen in his roles, he is very rounded. He's got a lot that he wants to try and give back, and I'm super glad that he's got round to writing this memoir, and I'm sure that you're going to really enjoy this episode today.
