I met Don Rickles a few years ago at the old Riviera in Las Vegas. I extended my hand, and said, "Mr. Rickles, it's an honor to meet you, Sir. I grew up enjoying your work." He shook my hand, looked me straight in the eye, and said: "Kid (mind you, I was in my 30s at this point), you're too darn young to know who I am! Who put you up to this? Your grandmother?" He grinned and I laughed hard.

"You governor are a great man. You can tell because you dont see many governors with clip on bow ties" 😭🤣🤣🤣

This was one of Don's best...he mostly let the others on the dais alone and focused on the guest of honor. What a great time Jack Benny was having, too!

"Black, White, Jew, Gentile" He finished his set with the words of Charlie Chaplin at the end of "The Great Dictator". That is a next level burn.

As I was growing up, in the 50s, ALL of the greatest comics were Jewish. We lived in Brooklyn and had live "Your Shows of Shows" on our TV in 1950. Then, my parents told me about the Catskills' resorts. There were so many great Jewish comics who "cut their teeth" in the Catskills I cannot name them all. BUT, to me personally, the finest of all of them wasn't necessarily just a "stand-up" comic, but more of a writer. This guy could also act, too. If I ever saw his name in a Cast listing, I knew the movie would be good. That man is Carl Reiner! My wife and I watch my favorite comic movie, The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming, several times a year. And, I don't think he wrote any of it. He just played Whitaker Walt perfectly. Oh, Alan Arkin wasn't bad, either.

Single handedly one of the greatest celebrity roasts of all time.

I am somewhat of a Don Rickles stan. I've seen ALL the roasts, I've seen every YT vid on the search queue. I watched the tribute show they did when it aired. He is, obviously, a genius. And this clip is IMHO the best 4 minutes he EVER did (that's been recorded... I have no doubt that he has had funnier Vegas sets that we'll never see). He had ONE slip of the lip.... ONE. He said "wocks" and then quickly corrected himself. Every. Single. Second. before and after that moment was comedy perfection. Not a single joke that doesn't land BIG. Not a single word wasted. He SLAYED that room. And it was almost ALL improvised. It boggles the mind. I miss Don Rickles.

So this guy walks into a bar in Argentina. He's there on business, works for a travel agency. He sidles up on a stool and orders a rum & coke. As he's waiting on his drink, he glances to his right and sees this old man who looks strikingly like Adolf Hitler, the German fürher of yesteryear. Led the NSDAP government, got in trouble with the international banking network and whatnot. There was a war about it at one time. So he sees this guy and as he's handed his drink, he thanks the bartender and thinks to himself this guy looks about the age Hitler might be if he were alive to this day. He remembers hearing some theories about the man escaping death and fleeing to South America, he always thought it was ludicrous, but his curiosity is piqued as he's faced with this old man who resembles the fella so much. Lots of wrinkles, no moustache, but he could've been old Adolf's twin. So the guy sips his cokey morgan and musters up the will to start a conversation. He looks at the geezer and he says "Hey man do you speak English?" The man looks at him and nods. "Ja. I speak English, how are you?" "I'm doing well," he says "Hey I don't mean to be insulting, but has anyone ever told you you look a lot like Adolf Hitler?" The old man smiled and looked unfazed "Oh ja, I have been tolt zis." The travel agent thinks to himself what a coincidence it is that this old man seemed to have an authentic German accent. He says "No offense. You German?" The old man nods again. "Ja." The agent asks his name. To his shock the old man replies "Mein name ist Adolf." The bartender glances over inconspicuously as he wipes down the bar a few feet away. The travel agent feels a strange new feeling in the pit of his stomach. A mixture of disbelief, anxiety and fascination. He tries not to let it show as he says "You must be pulling my leg." The elderly man says "No, I am Adolf Hitler. I can tell you because nobody believes me." The agent doesn't know what to say. Here's this guy who could very well be the monster he's heard about all his life. This frail, unassuming senior with the German accent is telling him he's Adolf Hitler. He's just drinking beer in a dim everyday bar at the bottom of the map. The agent asks the old man "How can you tell me so casually that you're Adolf Hitler? The nazi leader? The man who led a charge to take over the world in world war two?" The elderly Hitler says "Please, mein memory ist not what it used to be. I vas ze leader of Chermany and I did have to go to war." The agent feels sick as he asks the most pressing question on his mind- "...How can you live with yourself after murdering 6 million innocent people for nothing?" The former fürher looked again unfazed "What are you speaking of? Zat must be someone else!" The agent couldn't believe it. He looked around just to see if he were the only one hearing this. He looked back to the old man who looked positively innocent in light of the situation. He persisted "You mean to tell me that you don't remember systematically killing SIX MILLION people? You just forgot?" A sad, distant look came into the elderly Hitler's face. "...I can't imagine doing zis horrible thing...even vith all ze power... It can not be..." He was silent for seconds that seemed like eternity. The agent was incredulous "As the leader of the Nazis you ordered the murder of 6 million Jews! It's what you are known for the world round and why you must have come down here to hide from!" A spark of familiarity was seen in the elderly Hitler's eyes. "Jews?" He lifted his mug with a shrug "Yeah, sounds like something I would do."

If you want an exercise in how to deliver a line, look no further than 1:22. The set up, the timing but most of all the mannerism of the one and only Don Rickles is what makes this pure, pure comedy gold.

The art of Don Rickles was that he was not a mean spirited person in real life at all. Just the opposite. And this characteristic actually was evident to his "targets" even when he delivered his "insults." As Rickles himself acknowledged, if he really felt hostility, it wouldn't be funny. Unfortunately, today's "hate school" of so-called "comics" completely miss this point, which is why they will never be as funny as Don Rickles was.
