I thought they were talking about the retired actor Max Baer.
He was famous for playing the part of Jethro on a TV comedy called Beverly Hillbillies.
This Jethro is a British comedian. Max Baer, Jr., who played Jethro Bodine, is still alive at 84.
I did too. I was watching it the other day!
bought licensing rights to beverly hillbillies and sold slot machines...no idea how much money he made
