3:14 -- Dave Tebet used to be the Vice President of Talent Relations at NBC, and according to legend, every Christmas he would give out hundreds of TV sets (and other gifts) to actors and hosts who worked for NBC (and perhaps others who worked for other networks to try to lure them to NBC). He is credited for convincing NBC to hire Johnny Carson. When Johnny was granted ownership of The Tonight Show and formed his own production company to run the show, Tebet left NBC to work for Johnny Carson Productions, which also produced Late Night with David Letterman.

He was also the guy who broke the bad news if someone was getting canned. And he was the man to help smooth things out if situations got bad. And he never had a status name

he meant that Frank is so cool that he spins the plates like a circus acrobat while he's banging his wife but yeah that was funny... 9:16 "He's in the bed saying to the wife, ok FWEET let's try it with the plates"

[@tommyriam8320]

"plates" plural, with an "s" Even without Rickles playing it out for you, it's clearly a well-worn, reference to the classic show-biz, circus/carnival, vaudeville, talent/variety show act where the line-up of performers was sure to include jugglers, fire-eaters, and some guy or "gal" *spinning plates on sticks* . The image or the mere notion, for that matter, of someone with the stature of Sinatra banging some broad or even "the wife" while simultaneously managing to keep the plates spinning as if his sex sessions were this unconventional _is the joke_ 9:18

Rickles is much nicer to Letterman than he was to Leno. You could tell he didn’t like Jay at all

[@johnking5174]

There was a reason. Rickles knew Johnny Carson considered Letterman his protege, and wanted Letterman as his successor. So Rickles treated Letterman with a great deal of respect. Leno on the other hand, well of course we all know where Leno's loyalty lay with ..... NBC management.

[@dannyhernandez2203]

Prager504 This isn’t the rock n roll eta of the late 50’s or the hippie generation. This is a complete departure in that people are becoming hypersensitive. Emotion is rapidly replacing compromise and critical thought.

That's because wimps like you merely continue to complain about it rather than doing something "politically incorrect" or "offensive" on the big stage to combat it - for fear of losing some sort of stupid standing in this screwed up society.

Classy dude like Elvis, didn't get to much into politics. Sinatra was a total Kennedy democrat and a good friend of his, but he totally dissed Sinatra after becoming president.
