I love how Rudd is legitimately nervous.

[@minorbreakthrough]

Paul melting in front of Don from the nerves was a great thing to see. Very entertaining but also nice to see the human side, which makes me feel like what I'm watching is more centered in reality. Good episode of a great series.

[@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry]

Seemed completely fabricated on Paul's end for me.

[@scotey]

I don't know. Rickles is oddly intimidating. He's used to being around bigger-than-life personalities. Rudd didn't measure up. He knew it, Rickles knew it. A bit awkward, but to the comment above, a very human dynamic to my eyes.

[@vanmoody]

Paul reminded me of Chris Farley's skits where he would interview people and was all nervous.

[@kevingreen5834]

@@vanmoody D'you remember that time when...? That was Awesome!!!

[@jerryroach1104]

Stumbled across this web series and now through eight. The respect and glowing admiration is very heart warming. He was and will always be the best. Miss you Don, and thank you AARP for taking these out of the can.

I did too....seems mellow compared to his younger days....

"Do you have kids?" "Yes, one... thank you sir!" "Don't thank me, i did nothing" lmao

Don was amazing. He was big, relevant star right up until the day he died. Complete success story. Everybody loves Don Rickles.

[@chomponthisplz]

"Are you alone a lot?" haha these are fantastic.

I've watched every episode of this show and I've never seen Don take a single bite of any one dishes of his food.

[@TimothyJChowne]

How humble Rickles answers questions makes me love him even more.

[@codysett1]

In a very stalkerish way I have watched almost every single video of don rickles on youtube but unfortunetly did know of him until about 2 years before he died and even then I didn't know how amazing he was until about 8 months ago when I stumbled across a roast he did and I have to say its amazing seeing the photos and videos you guys got and put into the show. Aa lot of them I have never scene.

The AARP needs to protect these precious archives. *They are beyond priceless!* _Don Rickles was a galactic treasure and should be cherished._

[@mikeg6666]

Imagine performing for almost 70 years and his mind was sharp as a tack until the end. He was the king and we will never see the likes of him again in our lifetime! RIP!!!

[@joshuad8326]

Rudd is great too. Even though these interviews with Rickles are produced, they are all natural and interesting on many levels.

[@PronatorTendon]

You've done us a service providing this for our entertainment and nostalgia. Very much appreciated

[@acbennett7]

It’s funny hearing Paul talk about Don and others being in the brochures for AADA. My daughter went to AADA IN 2016, and Paul Rudd was in the brochures for her!

[@blacksheep5183]

I'm ashamed and sad that I've just known Don Rickles today. Damn, I wish he had more episodes of this dinners. He really is what a *LEGEND* should be, his humility is very inspiring. Huge props to Paul Rudd for mentioning George Carlin.

Did Craig's take over the former Dan Tana's Restaurant? Is it the same space? I wish I had gone to Dan Tana's when I could have. I love old, low lit restaurants with white tablecloths and booths and a full bar! L.A. was still full of them when I left in 2010.

Never would have guessed that Don would have more chemistry with Snoop Dogg. Though now that I think about it Snoop is sort of Sinatra-esque in a way.
