I knew this is where comedy was.

Goney Carson changed my life twice.

It was just like a dream. It was just like everything I had worked for and dreamed about has come to fruition.

They said Johnny fell overlapping.

It makes me so happy.

I made him laugh.

But with Johnny, you know you knew you had a kid audience that you could really go great.

My wife at the curtain all held real loose backstage.

People were running up and she said, go back out, go back out.

Johnny wants you back.

I walked back through the curtain very calm and Johnny, I took about, and Johnny put that little circle up with the finger, and I am Mark Malachoff. This is the podcast where I talk to people whose lives were changed by going on the tonight show starring Johnny Carson.

Individuals that worked on Carson guess that regularly appeared on the show and the top people in entertainment that were influenced by Carson.

Before we get to our guest, I wanted to tell you about an excellent podcast called Modern

Day philosophers hosted by my good friend Danny LaBelle where he explores the

works of a different philosopher each week with his comedian guest and tries to

find a link between them. Some past guests include Maria Bamford, Lewis Black, and Artie Lang.

I actually mentioned Danny in today's episode about a time he met Woody Allen.

Go check out Modern Day philosophers on iTunes. My guest this week is

Legendary Talk Show host Dick Cabot. He worked as a writer first for Jack Par, then as a writer for Johnny Carson, and appeared numerous times as a guest.

Dick Cavett can currently be seen in the Abington Theater Company's production of Helmin v McCarthy taking place off Broadway in New York City through April 13th.

Dick Cavett and I got together in the city at ICA Collective.

We opened the podcast talking about Jack Parr before transitioning into Carson.
