There isn't a single David Bowie song I like. Appreciate your thoughts though.

A seen bowie live 2 times🤔you's havnt clue abt bowie😢

Load shite😮

Lesser known fact perhaps: Shirley Temple was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations

I saw him with Mr T. After that I knew he could solve more than he knew,

terribly researched piece.

Super Dave is the American Benny Hill

Super Dave. Norm liked him. That's good enough for me.

First time listening to you guys. Gotta say that Half Price Books ad is one of the best I've ever heard. Regards from another transplanted Canadian.

That Mike dude sounds like a dumb ass.

Norm was a genius

Really nice job. Well researched, inquisitive, thoughtful. I like that you're philosophical & studious, but wanna drink cheap beer till sunrise doing nothing.

Sure do miss the ol chunk of coal

Norm’s medical and health issues are no one’s business but his family and himself. Being a celebrity does not mean the world needs to know EVERY IOTA of your existence. It’s called a “private life” for a reason.

He was a cab driver in LA not in Mass. I never heard where he stiffed him, but Leonard did say they talked until he got to Mr. Kennedy's location. I believe he gave up smoking in 1984 and drinking in the late 1980s. He Married Susan Bay in 1989, she talked him into giving up drinking. He admitted to being an alcoholic. He took William Shatner's alcoholic wife, Nerine Kidd, to AA meetings, unfortunately it didn't help her. She drowned in their pool. He never regretted Spock. He always said if he could only be one of his character's it would be Spock. He said since Spock, he never had to look for work. Like you said he played on Broadway, Tevya, he also did Equus, & Sherlock Holmes. He wrote and portrayed Theo in the one man show Vincent. He also portrayed Mel Mermelstein in Never Forget and was Morris Meyerson in A Woman Named Golda. He said Spock influenced his own life. Beside his acting, he was a writer, song writer, singer, author, poet, director, photographer, philanthropist. His photography hangs in several museums. He not only was on Twilight Zone episode Quality of Mercy he played Hanson; he directed an episode of Outer Limits about a vampire. He also acted in I Robot in1964 and later the lawyer, Thurman Cutler in a later version directed by Adam Nimoy (his son) in 1995. I agree Leonard was extremely intelligent. It seems anything he tried he succeeded at. I loved him from the first time I saw him, still do. You guys didn't do bad. Thank you. REST IN PEACE, LEONARD. LLAP

He was not a high school dropout. He graduated when he was 14 or something, went to college when he was 14 or 16.

I would say , i wouldn't want the injuries but in all honesty i want his characteristics and good attitudes, openness and ability to accept and not hate his political enemies

Norm graduated early at 16. And studied mathematics among other things.

Hypocrisy!

I miss Norm the world is a little less funny without him.

it was selfish? I cant understand that at all

Enjoyed every minute of this.

Challenging the norm

Norm was a human’s human

It’s hurtful? Oh brother.

Still missing him. Comics, comic.

Interesting discussion. I was impressed with the depth of your research. A few corrections to your research. Nimoy did not talk to Shatner for the 5 years before his death. Basically Nimoy put up with the guy until he retired from public life in 2010. Just like putting up with any other co-worker. Nimoy gave up alcohol many years before he gave up cigarettes. Nimoy "ruthless" - no but he was having lunch with Henry Fonda in London who said he had seen Spock on billboards and hoped he was being paid well. He wasn't being paid at all so he sued Paramount and would not perform in the first Star Trek movie until they fixed that. Re: "Heated arguments" with Gene Roddenberry yes on behalf of first Nichele Nicoles who was not being paid as much as the 2 other regulars on the bridge - George Takei and Walter Koenig and then when he refused to voice his character Spock in the animated series until Nichols and Takei were hired to voice their characters and Koenig was hired to write an episode. Roddenberry himself called him "the conscience of Star Trek". Nimoy also would not be bullied himself. One famous incident was when he left the set when Roddenberry wanted a cut of his personal appearance income. Another was when Shatner tried to stop an interview with Nimoy by TV Guide on set and Nimoy would not perform until it was allowed to proceed as described by George Takei. Nimoy was surprised at the first Star Trek convention he went to that there were 3000 people there. Nimoy's wealth came from more from his directing and producing movies. The actors in Star Trek got no residuals after 4 years I believe it was. Upset about Nimoy's wealth - first look up Shatner's before you complain about that and Nimoy was a patreon of the arts for example - there are 3 theaters named for Leonard Nimoy - the one at the Griffith Observatory in L.A., one for the Thalia Theater on Broadway and one in Los Angeles. His donations are over $1 million for each. “I’m very proud of having been connected with the show,” he wrote in 1975. “I felt that it dealt with morality and philosophical questions in a way that many of us would wish were part of the reality of our lives.” I think you should explore science fiction a bit. This is speculative fiction and written by in many cases scientists about their work. Not understanding it is a flaw to be corrected. My final comment is read the book before you psycho analyze the person in any of these discussions. Nimoy was very clear about it. He never meant the title to mean he disliked the character to start with so read where the title actually came from and the fact that he was told not to name it that because people would misunderstand. Overall a good discussion of Nimoy's biography.

He released his final album on his 69th birthday so it meant something that he died 2 days after.
