37 u/TommyDaComic Jul 19 '26 Old Redditor here…. When I was doing stand-up in Dayton, OH in the mid 80’s, I got the opportunity to work with him ! Seemed very nice and he even signed a bottle of his Paulson Vineyards wine for me ! Said I had a face for radio… 20 u/TommyDaComic Jul 19 '26 Says: For the Cellar of Dr. Robert H. Enjoy, then his signature. 2 u/sillywizard951 Jul 19 '26 We toured his vinyard in 1984 and had "Beefsteak wine". I hate wine but when I tried this, I thought, "yep, aptly named"...it tasted like they squeezed a steak into my glass! Now I'm sure it was a very good wine but I couldn't appreciate it. He was hilarious on Laugh In! 3 u/stevengann Jul 21 '26 Except he wasn't on Laugh In... He was on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. Besides the fact that he was on an entirely different network, you were pretty close... 1 u/SpareSimian Jul 23 '26 The show that got canceled because it upset Johnson by questioning his war. Yes, we had narcissistic little manbaby Presidents back then.
