That's so cool that Dick Cavett made it to your show Dave. In my mind Cavett is the epitome of what it means to be a modern urban intellectual (Bob Newhart is up there too). It says volumes that that guy is a fan of yours. My NY friend went to your show and said it was a blast. Can't wait to see it here in Los Angeles.
I have also watched that James Baldwin interview w/Dick Cavett many times. It's extraordinary. Congrats on the extension of your residency! I'm no where near NY but maybe you can take it on the road next year! :)
Well, I am one who is seeing both of these clips for the very first time... How could anyone not be moved - and how sad that at 60 this was my first time experiencing the Baldwin clip... It has left me thinking how I could have used it when I was in the corporate world. And the King Diamond interview commands a new respect... as you said, as many layers there as the effects of this autumnal weather! I speak as a former fundamentalist! What a powerful post, David. Thank you for giving us these opportunities to see what motivates you and your comedy. I love your style, man! Respect!

I have also watched that James Baldwin clip more than a few times. Powerful stuff.
Thanks for sharing it here for more people to see.
That photo of you with Dick Cavett is really lovely. He's pretty great. And you both look so happy to be in each other's presence.
Thank you! Yeah, he's a good buddy of mine.

Isn't it amazing? And thank you!
