You have a lot of 14 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: TV people today, talk show hosts, but they're just kind 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: of there. You don't have giants anymore. Back then, you 16 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: have these giant, legendary TV figures. You will never see 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: another Johnny Carson. 18 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: Will we I don't think so. I mean everyone in 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: the nation at eleven thirty would tune in for his 20 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 2: take on the day. I mean it's been said that, 21 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: you know, he really wasn't political because he didn't want 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: to take size and alienate half his audience. He wanted 23 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 2: to do an entertainment shown. Everybody passed through that show. 24 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, now that's a good point. The reason you waited 25 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: for that monologue. You wanted to get a funny take 26 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: on the politicians, the president, whatever happened that day. But 27 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: today's world, you hear forty seven talk radio shows and 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: twelve cable news shows. So you've by the time it's 29 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: eleven thirty, you've had eighty seven thousand takes on everything. 30 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: What's the late thy wants to do? 31 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 2: It's really different. He liked to not really take He 32 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: didn't really want to take sides. But I will tell 33 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: you something. George W. Herbert Walker Bush when he was president, 34 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: it was a secret. He was all set to go 35 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: on the show in nineteen ninety two and announced that 36 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: he was going to present the Presidential Medal of Freedom 37 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: to Carson, and Carson secretly told one of his writers 38 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 2: that he was playing on and voting for Bush. But 39 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,919 Speaker 2: the Rodney King ryots happened, and President Bush Herbert Walker 40 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 2: didn't think it was appropriate. But a few months later, 41 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: after Johnny retired, he did go to the White House 42 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: and slept over with Bush. And his son Corey actually 43 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: played guitar in the Oval office for Bush. 44 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, there were a lot of presidents. Was he was 45 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: part of the Reagan inauguration? Wasn't he? Didn't he perform 46 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: there for that? Yeah? 47 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: That was actually produced by Frank Sinatra, And whatever Sinatra 48 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 2: asked of Carson, Carson said yes. And Nancy Reagan. The 49 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 2: Reagans loved Johnny. But Nancy Reagan did call up twice 50 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 2: Johnny that she wasn't happy with some jokes, but overall 51 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 2: they laughed. 52 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. But getting back to the point of bigness, the 53 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: Tonight's show was so big with Carson. You know, sometimes 54 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: you're in a comedy club and they'll introduce the guy 55 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: and they'll say, he's been on with Jimmy Fallon fourteen times, 56 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: he's been on with Kimmel seventeen times, and you still 57 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: never heard of this guy. But in the old days 58 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: of Carson, he could make a star overnight. It was 59 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: a major It was true. 60 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: It was the dreams. I mean, there was unknown. Breddy 61 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 2: Prince goes on the show. He's twenty years old. Within 62 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,279 Speaker 2: six months he has the number one to come in America. 63 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: I talked to everybody from Drew Carrey to Louis Anderson 64 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: and this was their dream. I mean they had some 65 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 2: of them had tears in their eyes telling me this 66 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: story about what Johnny meant to them the country. Not 67 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: only that, but the young comedians in between commercials and 68 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 2: after the show, Johnny sometimes would get them punch ups 69 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 2: on their materials to improve their jokes into a young 70 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 2: comic that is like Santa Claus. I mean that you 71 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 2: can't ask for a gift better than that. 72 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a big feature of the Tonight Show 73 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: seeing the latest, newest best comics. Where did that stop? 74 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: I guess it was Leno that stopped doing that on 75 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: the Tonight Show. 76 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jay noticed that the ratings were going down when 77 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: they had committe stand ups, so they really stopped doing it. 78 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: It's I really feel like with Lem David Letterman on CBS, 79 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 2: the Great Romano was the big person that got famous 80 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: through that. But yeah, it's a shame that nothing like 81 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: that exists. I really do miss Johnny Carson being in 82 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: New York doing the Tonight Show. I mean, he loved 83 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: the city. He'd be in Grand Central Station playing tennis 84 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 2: with Mayor Lindsay. He'd be in the Bronx having lunch 85 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: with George c. Scott because they were friends and New 86 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 2: York was dear to him. And I'm obsessed with finding 87 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: footage because we both know most of it was erased, 88 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: and Carson was furious. 89 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, the New York years, the first ten years of 90 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: the Tonight Show, I thought that was the best period, 91 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: because you're right, he was in Jilly's, he was in 92 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: the Copa Cavana, he was all over New York. Once 93 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: he got to California, he'd go home and that'd be it. 94 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: He'd sit by his pool or play tennis. It wasn't 95 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: the same car. 96 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, New York was just I mean he had this 97 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 2: green Cadillac and he had a driver and on Sixth 98 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: Avenue he'd be waiting after the show, and around nine 99 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 2: o'clock he'd come down and get into his cadillact and 100 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 2: go back to the un Plaza, or go to Danny's hideaway, 101 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 2: or meet Sinatra or Buddy Rich. He had a really 102 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 2: amazing like one time his green Cadillac as his driver 103 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 2: had an umbrella because it was raining over his head. 104 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: Person watched his green Catalog be stolen by somebody and 105 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,679 Speaker 2: they're driving the guy's driving on Sixth Avenue and Carson 106 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: is in disbelief. This guy just stole his car. So yeah, 107 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 2: that was a low point for Carson, but he loved 108 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 2: the city. He actually when he moved to California, he 109 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 2: bought an apartment at the in the Pierre Hotel. 110 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, people, man, I realized the nineteen late nineteen 111 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: sixties New York was a dangerous place, even the seventies. 112 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: So it was worse than today. The movie Death, which 113 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: that was New York. 114 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a tough place. I mean, Johnny would 115 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 2: have loved to have walked to work, but he definitely 116 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: would be a target just being famous in money. So 117 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: we both know Mark occasionally he would put on a 118 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 2: disguise and walk around the city. He said he would 119 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 2: feel ridiculous, but the costume people at NBC gave him 120 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 2: this so he could go out with his sons. 121 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: Wow, so we're talking of this before. When I was 122 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: a kid, he watched like Leave It to Beaver and 123 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: there was the father Ward Cleaver, and you didn't want 124 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: to be anything like that guy. That's not what you 125 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: wanted to be in life. But then you see as 126 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: a little kid, you'd see Johnny Carson's that's the kind 127 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: of adult I'd like to be that kind of personality 128 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: that So he probably inspired a lot of people, didn't he. 129 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 2: I think he absolutely did. I mean especially you know 130 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: during the New York days. I mean he was pitching 131 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 2: to Mickey Mannle and Roger Maris at Yankee Stady. I mean, 132 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 2: he was jumping out of an airplane, playing with the 133 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: jets at Polo Grounds. I mean it was really fun. 134 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: And then you know he was at Indianapolis Motor Speedway 135 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 2: with Parnelli Jones, going hundreds of miles an hour. But 136 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 2: there was just something cool about him. I mean his dress. 137 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 2: I mean, he made so much money. People all across America, 138 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: young men would save up their money to buy a 139 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: Johnny Carson suit. He made the turtlenecks popular. They were 140 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 2: selling out all over the place because of Carson. 141 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, like James Bond would come in and 142 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: he'd have one great line, a funny line, one line. 143 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: But then you watch Carson. He could keep that up 144 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: for an hour and a half the interview a guests 145 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: and have fifty funny lines. 146 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 2: So he had this ability where his brain there was 147 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: this joke file and he would admit that a lot 148 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 2: of those ad libes were things he had used in 149 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: the past or had heard, but there was just nobody 150 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: that was quicker than Johnny Carson. I mean, the Jack 151 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: influence with the pauses when he would have animals on 152 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 2: was something else. He was absolutely brilliant. You have a 153 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: marsupial on his head relieving itself, and Carson look into 154 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: the spider going up to his arm. I mean, the 155 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 2: guy could do anything. 156 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: So here's the big question. Now, the Tonight show was enormous. 157 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: You'd be a star overnight if you're on there. Letterman 158 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: was really a big show, and the late night shows 159 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: today are nothing like that. And you got to think 160 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: at some point they're going to disappear because network audiences 161 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: are getting smaller, budgets are getting smaller. Are we going 162 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: to see the end of late night TV at some 163 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: point in the next couple of years. 164 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: It really looks that way unfortunately. I mean they took 165 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: away seth Meyer's ban. Col Bear is going off in May. 166 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 2: It's tough. Johnny had eight writers at the most, sometimes 167 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 2: only four writers, and all these shows have you know, 168 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 2: twenty plus writers that they have banned. So I think 169 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: if the shows do continue, we'll come back. They're just 170 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: going to be really scaled down. I don't think we're 171 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 2: ever going to see an amazing doc seference in twenty 172 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 2: piece orchestra ever again, which is a shame. 173 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: Well. Yeah, and like I said, with talk radio, with 174 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: cable news, by the time it's eleven thirty, you've probably 175 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: seen fourteen talk shows already that day, So you really don't. 176 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 2: It's really true. I mean, it's where we are. Yeah, 177 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 2: it's it's something that I didn't foresee happening. But it's 178 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 2: just network television. 179 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: In a while back when they took Jimmy Kimmel off 180 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: here for about a week and during that week they 181 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: ran game show reruns and it got triple the ratings. 182 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 1: And I'm sure it costs nothing to run the reruns. 183 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: So when Colbert goes off, I would assume it's not 184 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: going to be another late night show. 185 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's hard to say. You're an al and the mogul. 186 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 2: Maybe a billionaire has been buy an ad time to 187 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 2: the twelve thirty slot and doing his own comedy show 188 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: comics on leash. So I mean I could see Byron 189 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 2: Allens being he's such an amazing business man taking that 190 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 2: slot and just buying it from CBS. But we'll see 191 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 2: what happens. 192 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, everybody, get this book.

I got to go to Johnny's hometown of Norfolk. 200 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: I thought, ah, it's called nor Fork, nor Folk. They 201 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: said it's north Fork. But I got to go. Being 202 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 2: Johnny's boyhood home. They asked me to autograph the wall 203 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: next to the Smothers brothers and Paul Riser and all 204 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: these people like Dick have It. It was an honor to 205 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: be there and talk to people and sign books. I 206 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,359 Speaker 2: did something in Chicago at the Broadcast Museum of Communications, 207 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 2: and I'm going to be doing more events in New York. 208 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: So stay tuned. 209 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's know, we'll promote him. So when 210 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: you do all these events, all these audience, what do 211 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: they ask you the most about Carson? 212 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 2: Just people just ask me what he was like off camera, 213 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: and the people that I talked to his best friends 214 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: consistently would say he was almost the same Johnny on 215 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 2: and off camera, which was shocking because the media would 216 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 2: make him out to be cold in a loof, and 217 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 2: his friends constantly would say he was not, like he 218 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: was very shy and reserved when people didn't know him. 219 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 2: But if not, if he knew you, he was the 220 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: same Johnny. And constantly people when they come up to me, 221 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: just tell me how much they missed the man. 222 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he was the same Johnny. But and he 223 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: explained this once, when he goes to work, he would 224 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: get kind of cold on the loof because you're there 225 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: to work. It's not a party. You're not there to 226 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: have fun on the air. 227 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 2: You're right, he would. Yeah, he would save his energy. 228 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 2: That was a big thing with him. He wouldn't get 229 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: to the studio until he'd been working all day, but 230 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 2: he would conserve his energy. So it might really look 231 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: like it's tense, and I think he might have liked 232 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 2: it a little.
