Great old time Comedian who don’t take shit from nobody. He has made laugh so Fucking hard so many times over the years. Loud Brooklyn Guinea who is one of the greatest, F Jackie Martling.
From his point of view, Pat went through a lot of nonsense in his career for not always going with the flow. You see this in just about any business setting. The cliques of other headliners, comedians, managers, talent coordinators, etc. who kept him and others from achieving made him bitter. It’s a tough business and not many last very long. His personal family life was a mess and I’m sure added to his frustration and anger. Somehow, he channeled it into his act which upset some while entertaining others. There are two sides to every story, and then the side no one gets to see. Italian families can be very complicated! I know... all of us have been disrespected, slighted or mistreated at various times of our lives. But not all of us have have a microphone or venue to tell our story. As for going with the flow, Only a dead fish goes with the flow.
Pat claimed in his book and interviews, he had dealings with “Connected” guys. Some treated him well, others took advantage. Well, it’s very possible. Back in the day, the mob had their hands in the music business, Las Vegas and many top entertainers. No doubt Pat being Italian and especially from the heart of New York was ripe for the picking. It had to make his life quite the journey.
He wouldn't be able to whack anybody. After listening to his interminable yelling, they'd all bolt for the peace and quiet of the witness protection program before he could even get chance to.
@@NY51663 I think it's because there was a ceiling for comedian's careers back then. The highest you could reach was being the jester for a king like Sinatra. There was never a chance to get off the road back then.
Jackie has an infectious laugh. In fact his laugh was at times funnier than his delivery. His years with Stern could have been more profitable. I think he got short changed financially. Howard I’m sure felt his compensation was fair and of course business is business. There’s two sides to every story.
Many Cooper classics. He got funnier in his senior years and also more sensitive. What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger. Pat is living proof. But it made him quite bitter at times.
Freddie is no longer with us. I never saw him as much of a comic, mediocre at best. Sadly Pat Cooper is also gone. Comedy was always a cut throat business. Much like politics, porn, music and acting. You never know who your friends are. The people you trust today will screw you tomorrow. Pat always took that very seriously, unlike most others who just did their thing and picked up a pay check.
No doubt Pat has lived a long life. He’s had his share of failures and successes. In his later years, his bitterness about his family, divorce, show business struggles and people who betrayed him got the best of him. He’s in retirement, hopefully enjoying his final years. Despite our success in life, money doesn’t matter when you’re that close to the end. I’d hope he could make peace with his son and daughter.
@@Tom52NJ for all intents and purposes, he is living a miserable existence. Full of anger and hatred towards all friends and family he’s ever had. Usually people wound up like him don’t live that long
@@Ditka-89 Pat is in his 90's and got remarried. Sometimes comedians live rather horrible personal lives. Getting on the stage and being funny when you're miserable must be torture.
@@Tom52NJ I think he turned that misery into art. And for millions we should be thankful. Sadly he’s never really had peace. From what I’ve heard, he is also estranged from his current wife and adopted daughter, much like his first wife and children
@@Ditka-89 Pat’s delivery was always loud and at times with frustration or expressive anger. He could turn a tragedy into a comedy act. Last I heard, he was estranged from his adopted daughter and most likely her kids. His second wife Patty Prince died a while ago. Do not know about his present wife. No doubt, his life was never without controversy. I feel bad for his family and hope he makes peace with his son and daughter. It’s a heavy load to carry for all affected.
Raving maniac was Pat’s delivery which always came off funny. But to be fair, Pat stood up to a lot of disrespect given not only to him but his fellow comedians by the so called Big Names in entertainment with massive egos and selfish nature.
@@louishamilton9648, I understand fully. To be honest, his humor got better with age. When I first heard him, it was at a family friend’s home back in the 60’s. Comedy was much more tame. When he appeared on Stern, it was a whole different Pat Cooper. His anger was focused on the way other headliners treated him. As he said, it was his dignity being disrespected. It’s an Italian thing. He had family issues as well. I’ve heard both sides. Pat was creative and funny but families can be complicated. Throw in a divorce and all bets are off. We all try to get over the past and move forward. But when you look in the rear view mirror, the past is right behind you. Some can never really let it go.
There was a time when ethnic names were not considered cool enough or maybe there was prejudice. I’m not sure but Pat Cooper’s name was Pasquale Caputo. Today ethnic names are embarrassed. Go figure. Bob Grant was Robert Giganti. And so on. Norm Jean became Marilyn Monroe. Freddie Roman, I never knew his real name. I guess they shortened the names to fit better on the marquee.
It was more of a show about Catskills Jewish Comedians which were the whole Catskills experience from back in the day. I was too young to know much about it except what ever I see or hear on line. Pat's brand of comedy was unique to Italians. I get it. Some struggle with it.
@@Tom52NJ true. I owned a house in the Catskills in the 80's, Pat drew the most people, he made them belly laugh. His point was to fit in with everyone without distinctions. Also true that Italians and Jews have a lot more in common than most people think. Salute!
@@francescodagostino3640 In an interview Pat said his Catskills audience enjoyed him. From my own life experience, I agree Jews & Italians do share many common traits. Maybe someone was just jealous of Pat. Showbusiness is cut throat. Pat's book clearly outlined the crap he dealt with on his way up with "The Stars" who made demands, had to have it their way or no way and disrespected performers who opened of closed for them. It's believable.
Honest to the point to make enemies with some of his peers. He felt he was understood and disrespected by many. He had a way to channel his anger into comedy. At best, that's how most of his fans saw it.
This guy Pat Cooper is a very vicious, selfish person that prides himself on having his dignity but he’s confused, being rude and insulting people has nothing to do with dignity. He’s a loud-mouth rude person that isn’t funny. His own family can’t stand him.
Pat Cooper had an eclectic fan base & audience. He appealed to Old School Italian crowds, in later years younger people after his many appearances on Howard Stern, those who enjoyed his angry delivery and others with unknown tastes in humor. As you can see the number of views are astounding. I hope you enjoy the other vintage NYC talk radio segments and other topics of interest. Welcome aboard!
Audio like this was typically recorded a long time ago from AM radio, which varied in broadcast quality. Fortunately, people like Tom Mazza have preserved it.
Thank you! A Stern show clip I’ve never heard before!!!
Who told ya that?!!!!
@@Tom52NJwhat do you tell your children? What do you tell your children?
Before Elegant Elliot Offen, There was Pat Cooper
Pat ran so elegant Elliot offen could walk (or run in his frilly lacy lingerie)
You’re not gonna take his dignity like that. Riiiiiight
That there is an insult to compare Elliot to Pat. That’s like comparing mlk to hitler
Who tol you that?
RIP Pat Cooper...
He was one of a kind.
Man I miss Pat Cooper!! God bless him and his honesty
Jackie laughing in the background is the icing on the cake when Cooper goes off..9:51..11:41…15:00..15:32 😂
Jackie's laugh added special flavor to many things
I think you have a neck 😂

Pat cooper's appearance's are vintage stern. This is the best era ,pat,Jackie,billy, Gottfried & mark Harris is the best radio other

It's funny every Italian family either has a Pat Cooper or knows someone just like him.
Ha ha ha😂
Do you have any more Cooper stuff? Hes Amazing!

I love Cooper...but it was exhausting hearing him yell at Freddie Roman...Roman was talking fairly n honestly....
That was Pat's angry deliver style. Or just plain loud talking. There was something entertaining about his anger. Freddie was more laid back.
you oughta be ashamed of yourself, you oughta be ashamed of yourself, you oughta be ashamed of yourself. a who ha ho hold it.
I love that a who ha ho 😆
Cooper was the greatest drama personality in history. Was he ever once funny?
Never.

Pasquali Caputo. Loved him.
He has all these rules and judgments
It’s what made Pat who he was and likely still is!
Bringing a point up to the persons face is the honorable thing to do. Instead of scurrying talking behind people's back
After hearing him arguing with his family I understand why he was mad Freddy called him out for working for cash
Who knows. Freddy is gone and Pat is retired
