“What’s the first thing you think of when you hear the name Eddie Murphy?” For Krystina Ray, it’s Donkey from Shrek. For Kevin “KT” Turner, it’s Nutty Professor and Dr. Dolittle. But for Jeff “Skin” Wade, Eddie Murphy was nothing short of a cultural revolution—a rock star who changed comedy, movies, and pop culture forever.In this episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew explores Eddie Murphy’s meteoric rise, from saving Saturday Night Live at just 18 years old to becoming the biggest movie star of the early ’80s. Skin shares vivid memories of seeing 48 Hours in theaters and why the iconic redneck bar scene remains one of the greatest moments in film history. The conversation dives into Eddie’s genius, his clean lifestyle in an era of excess, and why legends like Dave Chappelle and Jerry Seinfeld still hail him as one of the greatest of all time.
