Comedian Tom Dreesen spent 14 years opening for Frank Sinatra, traveling the world with the Chairman of the Board, and sharing moments few ever witnessed. But beyond the glitz of Las Vegas stages and sold-out arenas, it was what Sinatra shared off stage that left the deepest impression.

In this candid interview, Dreesen reveals what Frank Sinatra taught him about showbiz at the highest level, the role of faith in both of their lives, and the meaning of real friendship — forged in midnight conversations, private Masses, and unspoken loyalty.

From emotional backstage memories to laugh-out-loud stories about Sammy Davis Jr., Smokey Robinson, and even a surprise moment with Robin Williams, this episode of Arroyo Grande is a heartfelt tribute to an era of class, grit, and genuine connection.

If you’ve ever wondered what it was like to really know Sinatra — this is the conversation you’ve been waiting for.
