Redd Foxx Pulls Up in a Dune Buggy | Carson Tonight Show

[@markbirchette8740]

Redd was my neighbor on Eastern and Russell in Las Vegas and Giuseppe's pizza was across from us both. He would always refuse to let me buy it and would pay for it. He lived in a modest ranch house with a swimming pool behind it. He had great small parties. I miss my friend.

[@siriuzbiz]

cool story! He's my all-time favorite comedian, still watch em every night

[@barbararenton8009]

I miss him being around, too. So many great folks lost to us. But they're all found Upstairs.

[@sharksport01]

Did he have that dune buggy?

[@mikeg6666]

You must of had some great conversations with him , that's awesome!

[@NoOne-kr4jc]

[@kasumiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin]

Even 50 years later, Sanford and Son (and Redd!) is still fresh and funny. "Heeeere's Johnny's car!"

[@mikeg6666]

Totally agree , sometimes I DVR it and still laugh my ass off!

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

for those that dont, or never liked him that's fine. GO DOWN THE ROAD TO THINGS YOU LIKE, STAY OUT OF REDD.

[@mzjonez8768]

My favorite comedian of all time!!!!! ❤️

[@NoOne-kr4jc]

Awesome taste. He was a character.

[@52BuickBoi]

I think that's an old ford model t around 1914-1918 ish that he got restored and lowered to the ground

[@OldSoulJer]

Sanford & Son has always been one of my favorites thanks to an early introduction from my dad. 13 years later at ages 24 and 68, we still crack up

[@dmzabo3914]

Yes it was, and it was a cool time to be around. Things were so much different then. Good and bad but it was real!

[@gloriaholmes464]

Red Fox was the best! He was a great actor! He is missed.

[@rick3301958]

Red Fox is not an easy man to interview but Johnny makes it look so easy because he’s such a pro. God do I miss the likes of Johnny Carson and Red Fox what a great era we had

[@stevencarrollscorpio]

Really nice interview, liked it a lot, even made me chuckle at times.

[@morsedregs9239]

I’ve never seen this footage, thanks for posting. Coincidentally I’m watching Sanford and Son, “The Older Woman” episode right now on TVONE.

[@summerislander4672]

Love Redd Foxx, thanks for the upload! I know he used to appear on Johnny Carson all the time. Please upload more of his interviews!

[@normajeanmcdaniel4491]

I loved Foxx **before** I knew he had G-rated jokes! I loved his raunchy stuff. 😁 I miss Carson nightly 🌙 . And I was a kid, eavesdropping past my bedtime, at least for the monolog. Genius happened on that stage.💯 I love this clip. Thx for posting it! Really different POV on Foxx. And still 🤣

[@mikeg6666]

I DVR the Tonight Show and watch the reruns and they're still funnier than any of the hack's on late night now! Johnny will always be the king!

[@stevedraper7151]

It was not G rated it definitely X. he said later on that's why he added an extra X to his name

[@normajeanmcdaniel4491]

@@stevedraper7151 I love that!

[@nightowl5475]

I love Redd. He was such a natural comic and a pretty cool guy. I’d love to see the clip of Redd on the Tonight Show where he brings on his Saint Bernard dog. It’s a rare clip but funny. Right around 1972.

[@Pronzini1]

Tony Randall must have been going crazy when Carson and Foxx both lighted cigarettes.

[@mexicanspec]

That Nevada plate brings back a memory. After Redd died his daughter came to me so I could get her titles on her fathers vehicles. The women he had been with wouldn't give them to her so I took care of that for her. This was in Vegas.

[@summerislander4672]

That's sad. But that was a great deed you did. I used to read the old Jet magazines and they used to be a real tight family before Redd and her mother split after 20 years. They must have rekindled because she was in a late episode of Sanford and Son

[@ThePrinceOfTheTalkbox]

so lol

[@oliverortiz8507]

The people back then were such great entertainers and wonderful personalities. Carson was and still is the best interviewer in history.

[@dmzabo3914]

Loved how Redd didn't see human colors. R.I.P. Mr Redd Foxx what an American gem.

[@ThePrinceOfTheTalkbox]

he was a BRAND MAN..... he marketed himself well

Paul Williams is the only one on that panel still alive. He is 82. I had to check,he was a great songwriter and quite funny.

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

​@@PC4USE1I thought that was Paul Williams. Coincidentally, I was just reading about him for the first time last night, although I have loved his music since I was a kid in the 70s, but not knowing who wrote it.

Carson, Foxx, and Randall on the same show. I'm glad I grew up when I did.

One of the things that I do not miss from back in the older days I mean I was born in the 60s but when I was growing up in the 70s and early 80s cigarette smoke was so much more prevalent. on almost every TV show even like Johnny Carson‘s tonight show you see everybody with cancer sticks I mean everybody smoked.I remember in my own family my stepmother my father my brother and both of my sisters smoked the only thing I smoke is weed

[@MansaMusa-v5q]

That’s when cigarettes were cool….it like complemented their style at the time, Seeing a well dress person light a cig is way different then a person who is stressed and struggling

[@davidintel]

A very intelligent man, what a great mind Redd had!

[@miriambertram2448]

I watched a Herschel Walker stump speech a few days ago. It was amazing. The end was a terrific joke which these folks would have appreciated. There were two old guys who loved baseball and when one was dying the other said please come back and tell me if there is baseball in heaven. Sometime later a cloud came towards the surviving fellow and he went up to the cloud and said so is there baseball in heaven. The cloud said said good news and bad news...there is and you are at bat tomorrow.

They would have appreciated it. I hope Hershel gets a chance at Senate. Thanks for sharing this. I didn't hear it at the time.

@@jpc2470 gaffes didn't matter for Biden. As for the accusations about abortions there's been no evidence that they are credible. Warnock claims to be a man of Christian faith yet is pro-abortion & Trans medication and surgery for minors. So if hypocrisy is a disqualifier there's more than enough on both sides. I just don't like how my tax $ is being spent so frivolously.

[@johncrocker4209]

@@jpc2470 The clips you see from Walker's wife were from a show where they talked about him getting the help he needed to be a better person. Warnock attempted to run his wife over with a car. And has consistently voted to spend trillions. Most of which went to other states because the one he was supposed to represent was already reopened. And he's voted for funding war. As for "voter suppression" we've had record turnouts for the last 2 elections. I think it's racist to say minorities aren't capable of getting ID & proof they live in the state.
