It's the same thing. It's the same thing. You know, jazz and comedy, they're very mathematical records. Yeah. Red Fox. Red Fox was very good to comedians. One of my heroes is Flip Wilson and Philip Wilson had Red Fox on the show the night before Sanford and Son was going to air and he was plugging the show. And it was one of the funniest episodes ever.

Flip Wilson was doing stand up and Red Fox was heckling him from the audience. It was just brilliant. I went to Viva Las Vegas once with my friend Robert Schimmel, and Robert Schimmel was a brilliant comic who helped me a lot. And Redd Foxx loved him and put him on all these things. And he was playing poker at the tables.

And so I joined the table, Robert and I, and I got in a hand with me and Redd Foxx. And we're the only two people left. I have a queen's boat and I'm ready to kick his ass. And we're laughing and we're taunting and we're having fun.

And all of a sudden I lay down my queen's boat and he has a king's boat and wins and goes, kid, you got to be doing comedy a lot longer than that for me to beat me in poker. You know, it was such a thrill.

I'll tell you a great George Carlin story. Let's go again. At the beginning of my career, I was acting like George Carlin and my jokes are very word play ish and still are. And I wrote a joke that I liked that was, you know, how can you have a word like nonchalant when there's no such word as chalant? And then I'd act it out. Oh, my God, I'm late for work. I can't find a thing to wear.
