Thanks for this great episode Adam! Way back in the seventies, I was lucky enough to work on 'The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson', which is the official title of the show, and believe me, it was a lot of fun. It would be a stretch to say I knew the man because Mr Carson very much kept to himself but he was always a gentleman to the crew. A complicated man and a great talent!

[@joannafountain274]

Adam, people would name bar's, "Office", so that when wives were looking for or questioning their husband's as to where they were or had been, they could say, "the office", without lying.

[@HollywoodHaunter]

Your basketball skills remind me of Scott Howard before he changes into the wolf. "Your mother and I were hoping it would pass you up" for you Adam I think it did Hahahaha. It's ok being a wolf has great responsibility anyway and who needs that. Very good job on the video today he was a neat man.

[@NebukedNezzer]

Jonny Carson was the KING of late night TV. No one has ever been nearly as good.

[@mellymuse1]

I really miss Johnny Carson. There's nobody like him. The best tonight show ever.

[@streaming1950]

I loved Johnny Carson. When I see what passes for late night talk shows today, it only emphasizes how good he was. This was great!

[@darylturcott]

my wife and I enjoyed this so much we were big fans of Johnny thanks for sharing this

[@DavrosVonSkaro]

I miss watching Johnny. He always had a hilarious response to his guests and he had it right away. So quick witted.

[@RCCrawlerz209]

It's good to see that some places are still keeping it old school, that's for sure.

[@wakaywa]

Good morning Adam. Love you so very much!!! Thank you for all the smiles that you bring into my life every day. Safe travels.

[@TheDailyWoo]

+W Kay thank you so much

[@mgtow6683]

We all appreciate Adam!!!!

[@mr.nibbles2369]

I love Johnny carson!!!! Thanks for the great vlog Adam

[@beverlyweeden9759]

1 of the best talk show hosts there was..!..me and my mom used to watch this together many years ago..thank you for filming here. ..made my day..

[@SXI96]

His childhood home is so charming, they did an excellent job restoring it

[@petesenrab5691]

Thanks Adam, safe travels

[@NebukedNezzer]

Johnny Goes Home was very well worth watching.

[@TheDailyWoo]

+NebukedNezzer glad you liked it . I watched it twice

[@MPunky666]

"NO! Like Carson not like Leno!" ha, Johnny would have loved that one.

[@nestajarrett4924]

for awhile my mom would have to pick my dad up at work. she would let me know she was going and after she left I would get out of bed and watch johnny Carson. Sometimes I would watch Steve Allen. I even remember Jack Parr. as soon as I heard the car pull up I'd hurry my butt to bed. those were the good old days.

[@CG-kb2ii]

Good morning Adam. Always love the vlogs. Carson was a true talent. He is sorely missed. I always love watching the videos of him and Tim Conway or the other old-school comedians. Always cry from laughing so hard. Like you, Johnny is an American icon!

[@kendalllippstreu6181]

I grew up around Norfolk!!! So cool to see you talking about landmarks I grew up with about Johnny Carson . Nebraska is such a beautiful place with great history

[@melh.3548]

I went over to watch that video of Carson. That was pretty awesome to see. Thanks! I enjoyed all 47 mins of it.

[@AdmiralPreparedness]

When Johnny hosted NBC's Tonight Show, that was when TV was REAL.

[@scootermcgavin7244]

Adam' i stopped your video and checked out the 1982 Johnny Carson Going Home video. I have to say i Enjoyed it thoroughly, and it made me remember my times growing up in Iowa. Nothing like a Midwest childhood. Thank You for the Great Content' Keep Up the Good Work. Comment...Over!

[@eriktred]

I love your vlogs in small town America. These places are true American gems.

[@itsatrap8476]

Great video today. Thanks for sharing Adam!

[@vvarietyshow]

That bridge at the end is awesome. Had no idea Johnny Carson was such an adventurer!

[@beachgirl453]

Lost boys and stand by me are classics. Have a good day Adam

[@chlexiel.1022]

Adam thank you. This was very interesting. Great job!!

[@TheSWolfe]

Good ol' Johnny. Not that enamored of the talk show format, but I always enjoyed staying up late as a kid/teen to watch the Tonite Show. Carson had a way of making even his most boring guests interesting, cuz he was such a engaged & humorous host. Loved that ending railroad shot. I always get a sense of hope from that perspective, as if track & ties are silently whispering to me that there's still somewhere else to go, some new place I need to be, & that if I just follow the rails long enuff, they'll take me to it.

[@patriciaherman6499]

Another awesome vlog. Loved watching Johnny Carson and I did watch his special back in the day, of course, I was very young at the time. 😁😁. Safe travels

[@heaven_cent7779]

love the sound of a train going down the tracks thanks for that !!! keep on trucking .

[@jenconn6692]

I really love watching your videos Adam. It's great seeing all these amazing places that I normally wouldn't get to see. The history and facts you give as well just makes it that much better. Thank you for doing this so people like me can see these kind of things.

[@drunkenirish420]

I love everyone of your videos. It completes my day after I get off of work. Thank you so very much.

[@brockfordleeperson]

I've seen that Carson special way back. I remember the house and the shoplifting part well. Very cool.

[@ericjace84]

Love you guys and Tim and Jenn!!!

[@garycrow4667]

[@briangarrow448]

Glad to hear you picked the Boss to listen to. I traveled across the western United States listening to Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Ray Vaughn. Good traveling music.

[@doc2517]

Great vlog. I grew up watching Johnny and have a couple of Best of the Tonight Show disks as well as Johnny goes Home!

[@Kodachrome40]

I remember when that special aired. It was really good.

[@TheTrumpets3]

Your Vlogs have been really good Adam!! Not easy what you do on a daily basis but you make it look easy!!

[@DavidSanders-mj5rr]

My daughter doesn't even know who Johnny Carson was . . . I grew up with him!

[@Cindy7777777]

Such a cool vlog Adam!!!!!!! Doesn't look like that small town has changed much!!! I love to see a train running on it's tracks and hear it's whistle blow!!! Just that sound is magical!!! What a step back in time!!! Adam, Johnny Goes Home was one of the most epic things I've ever seen here on You Tube!!!!!!!!!!! It was absolutely awesome and what a tear jerker it was!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!

[@pinkelefant4ever]

Wow, good basketball player, daredevil hanging from a railroad bridge, can't wait to watch Johnny's video. Thanks for another great vlog Adam and for introducing Chris.

[@SallySue9725]

So glad your videos come on in the morning (where I live at least) it's just a great way to start my day off good and since I also workout in the morning it helps wake me up and get my energy level up to start my hour long worth of running for the day lol

[@MobileInstinct]

Hey it turned out great! Good times hangin with you again.

[@TheDailyWoo]

+Mobile Instinct yea man fun times !

[@RhettyforHistory]

TheDailyWoo TheDailyWoo Looks like the dodge ball dodged the hoop! Great video!

[@naybur74]

luv your vids bro!

[@rc100692]

That road you drove in the beginning is the same one I drove when I went to college. I have been to that gas station in Wayne many times. Went to Norfolk with friends several times too. Always looked at Johnny Carson's house and never stopped by. Most of my friends them didn't care but I did. Will have to go there sometime for myself. Great past few days of vlogs Adam. Awesome to see so many places I have also been to.

[@TheDailyWoo]

+Randy very cool . Glad I could bring back some memories for you . Thanks for the comment

[@ericdoe2318]

THANK YOU ADAM!!

[@evelynlester6884]

I enjoyed seeing Johnny Carson's house. 😄

[@nervebloc]

Fun fact. As the story goes the original name was Norfork based on its location on the north fork of the Elkhorn river. When they submitted the name to the postal service back in the 1800's, the postal service in Washington assumed they meant Norfolk as Norfolk Virginia was a major city back then. There are alot of people around here that call it Norfork.

[@TheDailyWoo]

+nervebloc very interesting thanks for the info

[@easternjohnny]

heeeeeerrrrrreeesssss Johhhhhhhnnnnnyyyyyyy!!!! i miss watching the johnny carson late night show it was one of the best late night shows that ever was never cared for any of the rest that took over,,, tho david letterman was good. thanks for bringing this to us i really never knew johnny was from Nebraska.

[@easternjohnny]

i just watch the johnny goes home program nbc production... interesting seeing how different things are from then further back to what you just showed us,, why didn't you try that stunt..lol.........definitely liked that and this

[@bradbob18]

Just found this. Crazy that you were in my hometown. Awesome video!

[@daedralord1]

Johnny is one my idols

[@normani1956]

I love old neon signs . Loving these vlogs. Safe travels and happy very belated birthday

[@TheSilentscope1982]

You read my comment! I love your vlogs brother, number 1 on my youtube watchlist! I think what you do is amazing and have much respect.

[@richardstone8268]

Good morning Adam, really enjoyed the vlog today about Johnny Carson. My father and mother and then it was just my mother watched Johnny to the end of his career. She was really lost for a while as to what she would watch to replace Johnny. She tried watching Leno but according to her the Tonight Show would never be the same. Have a beautiful day wherever you go. "COMMENTS OVER"

[@WrightBrosRC]

Thanks Adam. A fantastic theme today. I have great respect for Johnny. I appreciate that his humor could be very adult yet not raunchy. He was kind of a quiet guy actually. I remember watching his very last show. Thanks so much for all of your research. Vlog on!

[@nestajarrett4924]

thanks for the link Adam. loved it. never got to see it before as I was working 2nd shift at the time.

[@djacgators1]

Here's Johnny!

[@angelice2360]

If I balanced and jumped between those rails, my ankles would be twisted, probably 40% of my bones would be broken...I'd just be a mess. Great balancing job and great historical and entertaining vlog!

[@billybatesjr5475]

This was a Very informative vlog about a Great funny man and host Johnny Carson another good one Adam thank you Sir !!

[@rev.jennyosorio7003]

On the road again....loving the vlogs Adam!! Thanks!!!

[@TheMultikitty8]

[@punky19761]

Another great video. Thank you, Adam!! When you said Johnny Carson hung from underneath the train tracks, I thought to myself, that's like The Lost Boys. And then you said it. That's why I watch your videos lol. We know the same movies.

[@JohnAudioTech]

Adam on the road is top notch stuff!

[@TheDailyWoo]

+JohnAudioTech thanks John

[@kellymcmeekin1229]

I'm going to love this vlog.

[@stephaniecerce3813]

Adam and Dunkin' Donuts iced coffee...best way to start my day!

[@tracybates2285]

[@CraigTheScottishGuy]

Another great vlog. The bridge at the end was awesome. Reminded me of The Lost Boys.

[@rev.jennyosorio7003]

Loved the Johnny Carson video. How things change...sad for me

[@j3wsdid911]

Awesome James Dean shirt. You should go to the festival in Fairmount indiana the week of September 30th!

[@normanrieck1515]

Hey Adam, your getting closer to one of my favorite movie sights, you might think about visiting Devils Tower National Monument, and see if Large Marge can have a close encounter.

[@geico1975]

Nice one ATW, and thanks for posting the link to Carson:)

[@TheDailyWoo]

+geico1975 no problem it's a great tv special

[@lakepowell09]

my dad's workin up there! near Lincoln! drives back every weekend after work on Fridays back to Albuquerque!

[@Personlpp]

The fact that you can put together videos like these day after day that are worth watching and well edited still amazes me. You are talented. And I know one day someone will hire you for a boat load of money and I shall miss my daily woo. Just a prediction.

[@pappy4075]

Thanks that was great. And for the video

[@WhiteStarShelties]

Awesome Video, welcome to Nebraska!

[@mrkwrkp]

Awesome Vlog on Johnny Carson with cool facts! Plus your train's in USA are alot longer then our trains here on UK.

[@majstar]

I love your small town traveling videos, I'm hoping you would travel a lot in October and fall, showing us Halloween festivities and places.

[@RhettyforHistory]

Melissa Jotka That is a good idea!

[@play4u67]

Oh Melissa Jotka, I rather like that idea also, the changes of the colors of the tree leaves in different areas also...beautiful idea!!

[@omgbarth]

Hoping you're heading north on 81 to check out Yankton, SD. 😉🙏🏻👌🏻

[@oldmanhuppiedos]

The surroundings are very different from the city, a friendly landscape. Nice detail the broom for the door.

[@MrShedinthepeg]

Nice royalty free whistling Adam.

[@user-qu6lt2cv9m]

You should stop by some national parks with large marge and enjoy some impressive outdoor scenery...Most impressive.

[@tbirdracefan]

I think I will follow the link to the show from 1982. I remember watching the special but the only thing that stuck after all these years was the part about the train trestle. I still watch the reruns when they come on TV.

[@LannyBenny]

I haven't watched this yet, but I did watch "Johnny Goes Home." I wonder if you got to go into the movie theater and found Johnny's signature. Time to watch TheDailyWoo.

[@KLEARSKITHEKREEPER]

Morning adam!

[@microbusss]

oh you NEED to go to Carhenge & I would meet ya there hehe

[@p.j.driton4528]

Hope you make it to the Omaha Zoo. It is awesome. Ranked number one in U.S. Welcome to Nebraska.

[@bonniekaye]

Love this video! Love Bruce Springsteen too! Great to see all about Johnny!! You look great either way, but congrats on the weight loss, for your health! I'm trying too! Safe travels, Adam. Sorry for all the 'edits'... I'm half awake!!

[@TampaJay]

Here's Adam! I miss the Johnny Carson show

[@boredumb7365]

i miss the old Johnny and Letterman wars, letterman won during the writers strike though when he was throwing buttered toast to the audience lol

[@JayPotter]

Very cool

[@paw8134]

Maybe sometime in the future you could do a vlog at the filming locations of the (1983) film ""Christine""!!

[@jraoul711]

That was a cool camera trick you did at the beginning when you were driving and came to the stop sign.

[@RhettyforHistory]

jraoul711 I liked that too!

[@Personlpp]

I also liked it too.

[@jackstanwich1632]

Me too.😎

[@mailadam]

Welcome to Nebraska Adam! Love the vid

[@christianp.a.ferraro9272]

That Stop sign light reminds me of the one stop sign and light in Holopaw going towards Brevard so many time I flew threw that intersection by accident

[@marchmadness76]

Ha a whole lot of nothing while driving through Nebraska. Lol. Johnny Carson show was the greatest!

[@BIGBADWOOD]

Wow another great Video !

[@mikegaughan9260]

Adam your more entertaining than the Today Show or Good Morning America plus I learn something new. You were brilliant today by the way. And yeah I laughed my but off when you played basketball. Reminds me how I play. lol Have a great day bro!

[@Allenstergess]

Morning Adam love ya bud!

[@jimterryh1983]

Great video Adam🇺🇸

[@moviejohn75]

Great vlog and interesting facts Adam u da man

[@IVR02]

Another fascinating video, Adam! Norfolk seems like an interesting little town! I haven't watched much of Carson's show, but I've enjoyed what I've seen. Also, I advise you to be careful when walking along railroad tracks. No matter how overgrown they seem, they may still be in use, and those tracks looked like they were in good shape. Even if they're abandoned, they may still be owned by a railroad (there are several abandoned lines in my area owned by Norfolk Southern), in which case you may end up getting in trouble for trespassing. Just watch your ass when it comes to walking the tracks.
