John Witherspoon Tells Funny Richard Pryor Stories | Joe Rogan

[@garyhanlon6055]

Richard Pryor was a comic genius. I'm a 76 year old Vietnam Veteran who loved him. I cried when he left us and so did millions of his fans.

[@loviejohnson876]

Thank You for your service Gary...

[@AnnaDolopo-ElementsInHarmony]

Thank you for your service.

[@slktool]

Harlem Nights is and was so far ahead of its time. To have 3 generations of comics who had commercial success doing it there way in one film even before you get to the rest of the cast. Thank goodness for Sanford and Son so maybe a few more generations will know Redd Fox...maybe they find Redd Foxxx in his albums. Maybe they find Jojo Dancer as well. Also I am a 44 year old Afghanistan veteran with many Vietnam veterans in my family so glad you made it and thanks for still going.
