Wow... I literally just finished smashing a old watermelon and pumpkin and threw it to the chickens. That can't be a coincidence.

Which one?
I had heard that there were more than one “G” performing out there.
Or was that a myth?

I believe he sold the rights to his act to his brother at one point, who then sold the act to a black guy

I liked his stuff. Original for sure but did good things with the English language. RIP

I looked into it…
He had a brother Ron, whom mimicked Leo’s act. A lawsuit helped to clear that up.
