TOM SNYDER. 1996
Don Rickles: Born - May.8.1926 ... 70th year.

[@JR-zv6qm]

We will never see the likes of Don Rickles again. The greatest comedian of all time. Tom Snyder was always such a gentleman to his guests. Such a class act.

[@rmelin13231]

Agree on both points. I've seen hundreds of interviews with Rickles, and Snyder's are among the very best. Truly miss them both.

[@danielwolfe2504]

I played trumpet for him at a show in the Poconos about 15 years ago at Cove Haven resort. He is truly a humble and sincere man. A truly kind and warmhearted human being.

[@AmericanStrat74]

He is still cracking us up. Can't get enough of him.

[@ThatDangerousWolf]

One aspect of this show is that you can hear the crew cracking up in the background I love that.

[@glennhoddle10]

*Tom Snyder was the ultimate conversationalist interviewer. An irreplaceable legend of broadcasting.*

[@sandraandrews9907]

Bob Costas follows afterward. Don't forget Larry King.📺

[@ryanpeterson8668]

Costas was great with Rickles as well

[@aa697]

Couldn't agree more. Snyder is in a class by himself.

[@joeybrisk1869]

Makes rogan seem like school radio

[@moseva]

anyone else on his/her monthly Rickles binge?

[@damnitChadwick]

For a week now

[@Therepubliclimited]

He’s so good

[@garymcaleer6112]

My favorite joke concerning Don's wife: “She has a black belt in shopping.” - Don Rickles.

[@LenHummelChannel]

I love these two together. both gone now, but real troopers in their day. Snyder has always been underestimated as a talk-host. top ten.

[@MrJbaker020]

Don Rickles has ALWAYS BEEN AWESOMELY GREAT!

[@joycampi7233]

I love to hear the crew cracking up! 😂😂

[@ronp4396]

Sad that he passed away but I'm happy that he is still "with us" and make us laugh

[@hammer2421]

Tom Snyder was such a class act. Tom was the best at these type of interviews, never be another one like Tom Snyder.

[@stevejackley4241]

happy birthday don, may 8 1926.

[@davidsonlankford1168]

If only we had some class guys like Tom Snyder, Television would be great again. He would dominate the ratings and eliminate the late night trash we have today.

[@edub9930]

He would Absolutely decimate& cut down to pieces whoever was in front of him or on his periphery. I love it. I've watched other comedians attempt his style of humor & absolutely fail & just come off as crude & meanspirited. Mr. Rickles knew exactly how far to take it & when to back off & move on to his next victim. Absolutely brilliant & a legend😀 Bravo Mr. Rickles Bravo 👏

[@tested123]

thanks for this. i really love both of these guys.

[@jeffeastwood15]

Thanks so much for posting!

[@hammer2421]

I will never forget the great Don Rickles. For me,the best there ever was.

[@jerryrichards4300]

Thanks this was awesome

[@bobzani]

He's so quick, it's unbelievable.

[@FMHammyJ]

Hell be 90 next year......and is still performing.....

[@LordHoth_09]

I feel like the last shred of America's sense of humor will die when he does

[@FMHammyJ]

+Jesse Nealy ...that style of humour anyways(where there are no sacred cows).......I can't think of anyone else who does that kind of comedy, and is as quick on his feet.........

[@danielwolfe2504]

+Jesse Nealy Agreed!

[@m.e.d.7997]

Funniest man ever.

[@ryanpeterson8668]

Yep.. Letterman agrees

[@mindylipton]

Loved both of them

[@mickeybrennan8775]

Thankyou Mr Warmth for getting us thru this Pandemic 🤕

[@jonsmith3413]

Loved both 💞

[@LeenaStark]

As I sit here binge-watching Don, I cant help thinking: IF ONLY Scorsese had cast him in *Goodfellas* and given him the part where Pesci is telling the _joke_ around the table in the club, and Ray Liotta says " _Ahhh ... I love the way you tell a story, youre a funny guy_ ... " and Pesci gets serious + feels insulted, firing back with " _Funny HOW ? Like a CLOWN ? HOW am I funny to you ?_ " and goes off on a verbal tirade against Liotta, would have been an epic part for Don to play. Scorsese could have easily written up a character role for him to play in that film, instead of the small role that he was cast in for *Casino* ( _in which he really didnt have much to say in terms of lines_ ) ; Scorsese should have given Don at least a 15 minute _speaking_ part within the film. I kept imagining the same while watching *The Irishman* a few days ago --- IF Rickles were still alive, he should have been cast in it as well, as an old mobster. He would have been great in it I believe. GAD I miss this man so much. He and George Carlin have always been my two favorite comics. They could make me keel over in laughter even at a FUNERAL!!! #LEGENDS 🙋 P.S: I got to see Don *live* at Carnegie Hall ( _after this interview of the same year_ ); my dad took me to see him, it was my "birthday gift" from him. We laughed till we cried! One of the most endearing memories of my dad who passed away just a few months later on Fathers Day. Rest In eternal Love to all 3 of my favorite men. 💝

[@aaronturner4597]

Yea IF ONLY the most memorable scene of any gangster film would have been different. Joe Pesci did that scene 100% perfectly.

[@LeenaStark]

@@aaronturner4597 Of course, and we cannot imagine it being any other way, nor being played by anyone else other than *Joe Pesci* ( _I love him in anything he plays!_ ); I was simply "thinking out loud" and _imagining_ *Don* ( _the GOD of comedy_ ) being cast in that particular scene as a "character" somehow. ( ? ) I'm also kinda sad that he wasnt given enough "speaking parts" in *Casino* ---cause I think he would have made certain scenes much funnier. Regardless though, I still miss this LEGEND, and he was definitely the LAST of the greats, and there will never be another one like him. 😔

[@trevormcmanis]

This is normal and fun conversation folks. If only Rickles and George Carlin were around today to comment on what is taking place. I could only imagine their words… RIP. 🙏

Two Living Legends in their Own Life-Time. T.S. was a Legendary Broadcaster who came of age at the right time.

[@garymcaleer6112]

My favorite insult joke from Johnny: "Don has lost more pilots than the Japanese air force." - Johnny Carson.

[@tailormade3072]

This and John lydon 2nd interview are my some of my favorites , Dave Letterman prank calls are classic 😆

[@mickeybrennan8775]

I TELL YA DIS . . . I love you Champion 🏆 Mickey Australia 🇦🇺

[@pr4442]

He is so incredibly funny...

[@ictpilot]

I remember watching Tom Snyder and his show at night. What a great guy and a great show. Great entertainment and TV back in the '60s,'70s, '80s. And a few gems like this in the 90s. It's mostly crap now.

[@thegiftedone]

Tom was sensational here…..knew when to let the legend go wild….and he knew when to smile……..two missed icons!……

[@AmericanFUBAR33]

No body takes control of the room like Rickles, not even Robin Williams... let that sink in.

[@mithunshenoy459]

Came here looking for some Rickles and found Snyder. Now I'm looking for more Snyder.

[@DangerousDavies2008]

This was filmed in 96 but the interviewer makes it looks like ‘76.

[@cliffworks748]

compare Tom to Letterman or Johnny Carson with whom DR has great rapport. Tom is too much a stick in the mud to get the humor bar up but his and all crews are up to par always cracking up.

[@NextEevolution]

21:10- "...you just can't sit here in a chair and 'hahahahahaha,' y'know, like a robot." That is probably my biggest criticism of Fallon, who seems like a good guy but desperately needs to work on his interview skills. He laughs far too often for it to be genuine.

[@zoso1980]

Fallon's main thoughts while he hosts, 'Am I doing what Lorne wants?' or 'Are the suits happy?' Fallon is not about interviewing or about conversation. He's about being product pusher and being as mass appealing as possible. You can turn your brain off to Fallon. Tom engages you and makes WANT to stay. The downside? The business types have determined that Fallon is the future because being as palatable and mainstream equals the most advertising and revenue. Tom and others in his tradition require engagement and intelligence. Fallon just like Leno and James Corden, just want casuals and eyeballs and play to superficial pop culture for mass appeal. Fallon, Leno and Corden aren't great, they are guys hocking for the mainstream and casual audience and run off focus groups and demographic data almost completely. Types like Tom and Johnny Carson engage you and THEY drive the whole. There is talent, art and host vision drives it. Conan did it too with his stint on The Tonight Show and was fired for it. NBC wanted a corporate host (mainstream appealing = more audience = suit puppet host). Conan balked and wanted to do it his way and that was one of the reasons he was fired. Cheers.

[@franknemeth7430]

I sure miss yesterday .

[@pronemanoldbutyoung5548]

Legends

[@hughmanatee7657]

Don Rickles’ energy is the source of his charm-his endless creative improvisational verbal energy and wit. Robin Williams is the closest approximation. You never know what they’ll say next. And they don’t either. Acrobats at the end of a tether, and on a knife-edge.

The eye rolls 🙄

[@m.e.d.7997]

SNL said he was one of the nicest guest hosts ever.

[@joet840]

He's total opposite of his bad guy persona. He's polite and kind to people.

[@DavidLee-rx6uo]

Tom Snyder was a class act

[@c.joyceb.8991]

Don Rickles was a great, Actor, Comedian, it's sad, that no one comes close to his comedy. So filthy are the people who do comedy now. I can't watch.

[@scottandrew8906]

There is literally no such thing as a non-entertaining Don Rickles appearance lol

[@ae5596]

2:48

[@vegasvic1]

The trinity: Don Rickles, Groucho Marx, Robin Williams.

[@tomsckay7point0]

it would be hard to argue with that

[@m.e.d.7997]

Lose Williams. And Groucho. Just Don.

[@tomsckay7point0]

haha...maybe williams. groucho? come off it. @margaret

[@m.e.d.7997]

Groucho just loved attention on himself. At times a real jerk. Watch him on Dick Cavett with Truman Capote. Truman they say gives him the finger. And yeah, I did not think he was always that funny. Full of himself.

[@tomsckay7point0]

think i'll side with ts eliot on this one :) watch the i've got a secret appearance. it's fun

[@Aerohead317]

2:30 lmaoooo

[@coachcoach1176]

Rickles always asked could he stand up.. etiquette

[@turdaozmen5619]

Got something else..

[@dundee1080]

Political correctness....Dear God, people didn't had any idea what's coming.

[@joet840]

Tom and Rickles are good together, ,Tom isn't as nice a guy as Rickles off camera though.

[@jayp398]

So said that Snyder said he felt like 25, felt great. He was dead within ten years.
