Larry North is Dallas-Ft. Worth's most famous fitness guru and has been so for decades. From his radio talk show to his gyms to his books and infomercials, Larry North has accomplished a great deal during his career. But how did he get started and what was it like in the beginning? In this week's episode, you'll listen to Larry tell some jaw-dropping stories about his abusive and degenerate gambler father, his days as a night club bouncer and how the owner of Highland Park Village talked him into signing a lease and opening up his first gym even though Larry did not even have a bank account or any experience running a business.
