You've heard of him. Mr Potato Head in Toy Story. Check his last interview - with guest Snoop

Hey Young Man..look up Jonathan Winters

Young brother, these people Bern oppressing us blacks since they immigrated to this country. We were cheap labor and muscle to them. That's the scheme. Go check kanya West comments. This shit ain't funny. You and your wife are sell-outs and you are dumbed down to know it. White society got you thinking like white people. YOUR NOT 🚫

What was so unique about Don was his spontaneous delivery. I truly believe that the majority of his insults were not rehearsed, he was a natural. Unsurpassed talent!! Much respect and admiration for Don Rickles. R.I.P.

Don Rickles is a legend. Not for the faint of heart.

Facts

It IS! He was an equal opportunity insulter. He made fun of everything and everyone. Old school, almost Vaudeville Catskills comedy. He was great and VERY serious in "Casino."

An this is is the comedy Gen X grew up with. The better the insult the better the friendship.

@@maryouellette2687 And Boomers

He’s a racist Jew F. Great comedian. But, he was an enemy of my people.

Don was a genius and an awesome person

Similar thing happened when I saw him many years ago at the Melody Tent in Hyannis on Cape Cod! A lady in wheelchair was really picked on during show but afterwards, with a brief time for him to change clothes and such, he made sure to talk to her, get pix with her, etc. She was thrilled! Really nice guy off stage! I still remember him wearing a sweater after show that looked very ordinary.

Not sure if he was a class act but he was an act.

THAT was Don He was sweet and very generous man

@Trevor Distance then don't go to a stand up comedy gig being in a wheel chair if you think your feelings might get hurt. Everything and anything is on the table for stand up comedy. Comics frequently take shots at people in the audience for various reasons. Ask Will Smith.

I can think of a thousand things that are more horrible my Dad just died of cancer that's horrible

@@ericrivera8410 People with cancer have no sense of tumour.

Yeah and that's, because it was classy now a days the stand up just says "fuck you" and everyone laughs.... No appreciation for smart humour in America anymore

@@mrjackelbox4418 Too true. The roasts just go for raunchy insults thinking it's smart humor. They need to go watch some tapes of the Dean Martin Roasts and see what smart and funny jokes are.

@@toodlescae exactly🥂 don't get me wrong it offensive toilet humour is someone's thing than by all means they should enjoy it, but don't say that it's anywhere near the classics and pretend like it's not stupid

@@mrjackelbox4418 we are devolving as a species, by design of the globalist shills using age old tactics like divide and conquer. The lunatics running the world right now are using people emotions to keep them from thinking logically. They have infected every facet of life. From movies, shows, comedy, video games, the cars we drive the food we eat and the biggest, having parents labeled domestic terrorists because parents dont want their kids being indoctrinated. They are pushing us into ww3. If you dare speak your mind, your a racist bigot. It’s getting old fast. I’ve been married 20 years and told my wife I’m glad we got to experience life when it was somewhat normal because the back half of lives are screwed. This isn’t confined to the US. The moment they released covid before the election is the moment people should’ve seen what is coming.

@@mrjackelbox4418 You are exactly right!!

He had another great response to the makers of All In The Family when Carol O'Conner (Archie Bunker), who was a big fan, advocated for him to guest star on the show when they were concerned about how Sammy would feel about Carol's character's scripted comments in the episode. "I've been on the road with The Rat Pack so I've heard it all. Don't worry."

Sammy was a proud satanist.

I say the same thing. Today, young people have thin skin. It's ridiculous

Think skinned yes...which is why they pick up a gun and shoot up a school.

I've always loved the saying "If you can't laugh at yourself, we'll do it for you!"

@@kevincage1641 They are so weak. They would never have endured High School in my day. Kids were ruthless back then about ridiculing the slightest difference or perceived weakness.

@@dreadcthulhu5 Love your screen name. Get this, on the very last day of the fifth grade in 1969, we were coloring in a book called "Highlights". At the end of the final story, I read this ".... But nevertheless CTHULU CALLS*...." I wish I had looked to see what the * asterisk referred to. This was my first invitation. I answered the "call" in 1984. Rise Up Kindred.

Andrew Shultz is someone that works the crowd over, but I love Don!

Well said 👍

was it really 75 years ?... man thats cool

Rickles... Was a genius at comedy 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣

That is because Don Rickles comes from a time when people knew how to take a joke. Now people are so uptight, they couldn't pull a sewing needle out of their butt with a TRACTOR! Rickles, like Chapelle and other GREAT comedians use humor to point out the idiocy of TRUE racism and ignorance with a tongue-in-cheek way of poking fun at himself and others. But the problem today is that MOST people are too DUMB to understand the irony of the joke. It goes right over their heads and they believe the guy REALLY means what he says. That is why Chappelle is in so much hot water with the lgbtqwerty community. They are dumb as well as ignorant. But still HILARIOUS! They don't know how to laugh at themselves. I love your channel and your personality and attitude. Subscribed! We need more people like you posting on youtube. Laid back and knows how to take a joke! Check out the Sit down with Don Rickles and Snoop Dogg...CLASSIC!

This comment is certified fresh

WOW,that’s truly amazing. 🥲

@@wood2103The problem is more that with the internet and everyone all of a sudden are able to express their feelings online, it’s becoming apparent that people have been offended by racist jokes for as long as they’ve been around, people just ignored them and never heard about them. Think racist murders by cops are a new thing? Naww, you just never heard much about them until everyone and their mothers had a cellphone with a camera on it. So again, it’s not like people just started being offended. It’s more they were just ignored and ridiculed in the past instead.

​@@thomaspetersen3220 uuhhhhh Noooooo it's pretty recent.

Then there's the Ketchup story. Rickles, Newhart and their wives were out to dinner with Sinatra, and some in his entourage. Some of the food was late getting to the table. Rickles had ordered a burger and fries which came to the table. Sinatra's order was late and he was getting irate. Finally he got so mad that he picked up a bottle of ketchup on the table and threw it against the will shattering it. Rickles without hesitation picked picked up a french fry and and looked down to the head of the table saying "Hey Frank, will you pass the Ketchup" ? It broke all the tension in the room as every body laughed especially Sinatra. Frank Sinatra made it Ok to be insulted by Rickles. Frank got the joke and allowed himself to made fun of....only by Rickles. It made Don's career

He said "can't you see we're eating"

WE NEED A MILLION DON RICKLES, EVERY DAY...!

Exactly what the world needs

True,over 20 years in the navy...he retired as a Senior Chief Petty Officer all that and a great comedian.

❤❤❤❤

I liked him too...he was so funny..I never felt offended...

Do you even know what the term woke means,?

Wokeism sure beats Deadism, lynchings, and massacre!

​@@ericrivera8410 Yes..." Woke =WANKERS " !! 🤣🤣

My 1st time was seeing him was in Vegas. He picked out a mixed couple to harass. At the end of the show she got a huge bouquet of flowers. He was given a bottle of wine. Saw him again the next summer. Joan Rivers opened for him. Same thing. Harass the mixed couple. End of the show, bouquet and wine. Because we bought tickets that were right up against the stage he shook each of our hands. Ladies first. Men a bit later. Beautiful human.

@@zombywoof1015 thank you for sharing that ❤

I saw a comment on a different Don Rickles video about how Rickles was picking on a couple on their honeymoon that was in the front row of one of his shows in Vegas. A couple of days later when the newlyweds went to check out of their hotel, they were told that Don Rickles had already paid their bill for them. Straight class...

How wonderful your aunt and uncle knew him. His sincerity and kindness did show when he entertained .

Sweet comment, I love it!✌🏼❤️👍🏼

He had a famous rib on Obama at the Shirley MacLaine AFI which I sense was cut out. Idk if Obama laughed or not but it does not matter because this is a figure involved with politics and in politics you also have the side that is ultra sensitive. They pounded him in the news, but he faded out. It didn't matter because he still did shows and so many people respected him. He earned it, and it was from the days where this pc garbage wasn't lying around. What I am about to say is based on observation. Had he been trying to have a career today, imo, young and fresh, he probably couldn't. He has the talent to do it. We are canceling him again, even though he's "earned" it and is as appreciated as he is. This is all because of oversensitive angry subjective hypocrites who will overanalyze everything where people will be absolutely miserable. Its SICKENING, and people who know how to ride politics well, are probably using this to their advantage, this sensitive era, to destroy the careers of people they do not like. Morality is a very subjective thing because of different definitions in different cultures. Anger and emotion cloud judgement.

@@NoOne-kr4jc The comment on Obama was edited out of the broadcast. Obama is not even mentioned on his wiki page. There was no scandal. Canceled? Rickles' schedule did not slow down after that. He looks like he was as busy as ever. Check his IMDB page.

When his Chinese doctor told him he had 24 hours to live, he said, "What the hell do you know? You run a laundromat. And I'll order the wonton soup and the pu pu platter."

He always stayed authentic. He was naturally this way. Plus from a long passed era. People wasn't as soft and had less egos.

@@davidcook680 more stable too

Yes they were

Even until the 80s I remember hearing Polish jokes. The last I recall was in an episode of Seinfeld LOL

Well said

Not society. Liberals / Leftists.

"I got a friend who's half Polish and half Jewish. He's a janitor, but he owns the building'.

61 and 1/2 Polish here 😊💃

That's because most white people of that generation had a false sense of security. When everybody started making jokes about white people then it all changed.

They get cancelled then apologize instead of dbl barrel middle finger

We LOST him. It's not "We loss Don...". Jeez, what am I your English teacher?

@@tarico4436 Ya made me belly-laugh with that!

@@susanechevarria4320 Thanks for "getting" my joke YOU HOCKEY PUCK! He was one of the best, one of the funniest ever.

​@@steveh603 uncle miltie. Yup🤣🤣🤣👍

@@beachboys3326 Nothing wrong in gently correcting someone. So long as you're not obnoxious about it.

@MarieAnne Oh fiddlesticks!

Wow! Always thought he improvised everything. I assumed he had part planned and improvised a little when it felt right.

In the time you knew him, did have a hateful bone in his body. from what I can tell that answer is no.

@@waynejohanson1083 Not at all, Wayne. Nicest guy ever! Last time I saw him, he told me if I was ever in Vegas, to come to his house and stay with him and his wife. I never got the chance to take him up on that, sadly.

@@JimD56 Wow do you have any funny stories about Don? He was such a great guy from everything I have seen

RIP

He insulted everyone...even himself...But he was a great human being who would do anything he could do to help people.

Don rickles was so nice when I was working security in Bel Air California he let me use extension cord from his garage ? why I was able to keep the fan in my patrol car it was a nice warm-hearted man it was hot outside mosquitoes at night were bothering me with the windows down and I had a fan connected to his garage going into my car

WELL THEN WE KNOW WHO TO BLAME FOR RACISM.... POLITICIANS... THEY ARE THE INSTIGATORS. CASE CLOSED!

Those were the greatest shows

That's just that people forgot about humor, they're all just way too sensitive

Well said. Back then you didn't look around worrying about who is going to blow a gasket being offended and try to cancel them and destroy their career. You laughed because everyone laughed since it was a joke and you knew that deep down he was just bringing people together with humor and laughter.

I lived during those days and they were not as you remembered. Interracial love scenes on television were taboo (Black man/White woman). Gay romance was non-existent and any openly gay person had to be presented as an over-the-top Liberace type character. Asian men were portrayed as servants or martial arts experts. You never saw an Asian man (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) in a romantic role. Selective memory is a hell of thing.

Similar story. I was a kid and thought he was just a mean man and hated it when he was on anything we were watching. But as I matured, I finally got the joke and realized the level of his genius.

Then you need to watch more Rickles cause no one beats him ever

The only ones I got to see are Red Foxx and Nipsey Russell.

​@@jamesedwards2237 both great
