I liked the audience Q&A session segment, that involved both Woody and Dick, at the end.

And yes I do remember the show and Nixon, and the civil rights movement, and the anti-war movement etc., etc., etc. But I rarely got to see this show because my father hated Cavett. Draw your own conclusions as to why. I only got to see this show when my father was at work. Oh, and the "who knew" part above was meant as a small joke.
