Show Notes

Zibby is joined by actor Ralph Macchio to talk about his new memoir, Waxing On, which takes readers through his life from The Karate Kid to Cobra Kai. Ralph shares how he has navigated the changing seasons of his career, what he likes to do with his family when he's not acting, and the responsibility he feels while continuing to develop such an iconic character in new ways. The two also discuss 1980s nostalgia and Ralph tells Zibby a few of his favorite Mr. Miyagi-isms.
