I wish I had the mute button for Bob and Tom's microphones. I would never stop pushing it. They just can't shut up and quit ruining Tim's story.

The drinking age should be 18. If you're old enough to sign a contract, join the army or be sentenced to 20 years, you should be able to legally drink a beer. But the voting age should be 48.

Tommy Smothers was sitting alone in one of the big, comfy chairs in the lobby of the Eugene Hilton, where I was working at the bell desk, probably 1997. When the two pilots and two flight attendants scheduled for the airport arrived, we loaded up and departed, at oh-dark-thirty in the morning. Tom's brother, Dick, was staying with us, but he apparently had other travel arrangements. Tom took the passenger seat and spoke not a word. The flight crew chatted amongst themselves in the two rear bench seats. None of them noticed that they were sharing their hotel shuttle van with Tommy Smothers. When we arrived curbside at the Eugene Airport twenty minutes later, I unloaded the crew's luggage, they each handed me the customary buck and walked away, pulling their roller boards, still completely oblivious, unaware of their brush with one of the most famous comedians of our age. My father had three Smothers Brothers comedy albums, and I heard them so many times that I had them memorized. I unloaded Tommy's suitcase to the curb, and as he pulled out a generous tip, I softly sang the punchline from "The Troubador Song": ♫♪ When there's two in the bush ♪♫ ♪♫ there's a bird up your tree ♪♫♪ - and then he joined me in singing the repeated last line - ♪♫ bird up your tree! ♪♫♪

Hi Patrick. Sorry to not be commenting on this video (although it's a great video!). My question is actually on your Jim Gordon playlist which is incredible! First, Thank you for making the list. He is a hero of mine and my Dad was friends with his mentor of sorts Hal Blaine, who was also a phenomenal drummer who played on hundreds of hits form the 60's to the 80's. Second, What prompted you to make this incredible playlist? Just curious. I am sure you know of Jim's very sad life after music. It is truly heart breaking. Thanks again for the great playlist!

Hello, that playlist is actually a copy of someone else's from Spotify, but because I am not a subscriber to their services, I copied it to listen to on KZbin. I am glad you like it none the less. I am a huge admirer of the Wrecking Crew and the music of that era.

The commentators seem obsessed with Mauri Rose. Rose did NOT win in 1939. Wilbur Shaw won. Rose had a shared victory in 1941 with Floyd Davis. And he stole the 1948 race from Bill Holland which got him kicked off the Lou Moore team..

As I understand it, the superior performance of the car was due just as much to the four wheel drive, than the turbine engine. Superior corner handling.

I would imagine the thinking was similar to Brabham being asked to withdraw their fan car many decades later; the design was so much faster that every other team would have to copy it at great expense to have any chance of being competitive. Haroon got the last laugh anyway as within a few years his idea was indeed being copied by everyone.
