I am in awe. I’m a Gen Xer. Not even a Boomer. I first learned about the Sid Caesar show by the movie ‘My Favorite Year’ in the 80s and Mel”s story about visiting Caesar and holding his hand made me smile.
Marc, I "discovered" you on Conan - (Conan and Andy, your best foils) - and you've become one of my favorite people. Mel, of course, is one of my media heroes, a guy I always run to when I'm in the throes of depression. Thanks for these great interviews!

This interview should be played in schools a real history lesson. Beautiful.
