Episode #200: David Jolliffe (Glorya Lord, Richard Jolliffe) (Part One)

Today on another episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, it’s actually more than just another episode. Why? This is episode number 200 of the podcast. If you had asked us when we started if we had thought we would get to 200 episodes, we might have thought that was impossible. But here we are. We owe a great deal of thanks to all of you, our listeners for hanging in through all these years. We appreciate you, your enthusiasm on social media, your support on Patreon and all your emails and DMs for guest suggestions. You’d be surprised how often that works, so keep the suggestions and the downloads coming as we head to the next milestone.

And with that out of the way, we bring you another encore episode, a two-parter in fact, with actor David Jolliffe whose stories about growing up in Hollywood as an actor really boggle the mind. You likely know David from his amazing red afro on Room 222. Or maybe you know David from his countless television commercials, or maybe you know his voice from countless animated shows? Perhaps you know some of his music he made with his actor/musician friends or maybe if you are in the industry, it’s from his advocating for actors as a VP of the Screen Actors Guild & AFTRA. However you know him, you wont forget some of his remarkable tales after listening to this episode. Along the way we learn about growing up as the child of his actress mother Glorya Lord and his father, TV executive Richard Jolliffe.

So buckle your seatbelts for part one of our conversation that touches on everyone from Alice Cooper, Michael Constantine, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Bruno Kirby, Billy Mumy & composer Jerry Goildsmith to name just a few. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and this is part one of our interview with David Jolliffe. Everyone has a story.
