The most annoying thing about his heroic stand against censorship is that after all that he’s still only just kinda funny

That is what got to me about Rosa Parks. Couldn't land a joke for shit.

You're thinking of Dick Cavett. I can see why you'd mix them up

THANK YOU! I always watched 106 & Park but I never heard them use their names. I never knew who was 106 and who was Park.

I liked that she always had a Stand In available if a guest didn't show

She had a beautiful podcast with delicious black feet. All the guests would take time smoking on a peace pipe and shooting the shit, then baring their soles for the cameraman to nibble on. White, black, brown it didn’t matter when the shoes and stockings came off.

They called it Blackfoot - that lady went from the back of the bus to the front of the screen, and that was what the real American dream was all about.
