    I got a first class ticket upgrade and had an empty seat next to me from San Francisco to L.A., then in L.A. Don Rickles boards the plane and sits next to me, he looks at me and says "Please tell me you're a mute", so I just gave him nod and a thumbs up without saying anything and he says "Oh great, they got me next to a mime". Then he said "It's ok, you can talk...just not too much", then he proceeded to roast me for 45 minutes straight...all the way to Vegas. The guy never broke character.

      And there is the difference between Johnny and today's "comedians" that host shows. He knew if someone was hot, let it go. If they were struggling, jump in. Now the hosts talk over everyone and ask dumb softball questions and try to steer everything to politics.

      Rickles realy is on fire when someone tries to hackles him, thats when he lives up. There is no change someone can be at his level in the future, cause thats needs a lot of live experiences on stage with small and bigger audience. And also beeing able to talk like a thug from the street and also act and speak in a elegant old school manner seamless.

      You can actually kinda get new material from them. I was on chatgbt and essentially got it to write a bit about chest hair, as if it was coming from Don Rickles.
      This is what it stated, verbatim;
      Don Rickles was a legendary insult comic known for his quick wit and biting humor. To phrase the poem in his style, I might try:
      "Hey, look at this guy over here with the chest hair. What's the matter, you couldn't find a sweater to wear, so you grew one on your chest? I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Seriously though, that's some impressive foliage you've got there.
      You know, back in my day, chest hair was a sign of virility. Women couldn't resist a man with a nice thick pelt on his chest. Of course, these days they probably just think you're auditioning for a part in a Tarzan movie.
      But hey, who cares what they think? You've got chest hair, and you're damn proud of it. It's like a natural toupee for your pecs. So keep on rockin' that chest carpet, my friend. And if anyone gives you a hard time about it, just tell them Don Rickles sent ya."

    The magic of Rickles is that he insulted everyone equally, especially himself. It's not said with cruelty or outrageousness, and comes across as lighthearted banter from a professional funny man. That is what so many "comedians" lack today. It's not that the audience has changed as much as the fools who try to shock everyone and genuinely hurt others in order to get laughs. Johnny, Ed, and Don were in my grandparents generation, and I was too young for all this - but I love them.

    I think the best part of when Don Rickles was on is to see just how much he cracked Johnny Carson. Seeing Carson laugh so much is very cool. I wished we still had comedians and late show hosts as good as these two were. There is not one comedian today, much less a late night host that can even touch Rickles and Carson.

    Nobody could bust on Johnny like Rickles and make him love it. Johnny seemed to love being on the receiving end of Rickles' barbs. I think he liked Don about as much as anyone he knew.

    When I was a child... ahem... my Daddy would stay up to watch the Johnny Carson show. it was the only time I heard him really laugh. A lot. I would make sure my mother wasn't awake and sneak in the living room just to sit next to him on the sofa. Those are the kinds of things you miss.

      When I was in high school in the 70s, my parents allowed me to watch the 11 p.m. news and Johnny’s monologue, but if Rickles was on, I was allowed to stay up as late as necessary to see him.

    Before Joan Rivers..was Don Rickles. Both had that bold, abrasive humor. Both had that quick..manic, comedic wit, a lot like the late great Robin Williams and George Carlin.
