Ep. 124 - Gary Coleman | Last Days

On May 28, 2010, Gary Coleman — the child star who became a household name as Arnold Jackson on Diff’rent Strokes — died at the age of 42 following a fall at his home in Utah. Behind the catchphrases and sitcom fame was a life marked by legal battles, health struggles, and a constant fight to reclaim control over his image and earnings. Though his voice was silenced far too soon, his legacy lives on in the conversation around child stardom, entertainment industry exploitation, and the resilience of those who refuse to be defined by a single role.
