- This Iowa grandmother gave up Johnny’s monologue for Lent. When her grandson found out, he wrote in to the show describing her intention. But he did it without her knowledge. After she found out about her grandson’s letter, and the show started calling, it took some doing before she agreed to come on the show.
I wanted to share this interview on this special date: The 30th Anniversary of the final Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. I believe Johnny was touched by her visit as the interview went along; knowing her age was close to his parents’ age, and they both shared the same midwestern roots. In addition, both of his parents had passed away a few years before.
All in all, everything culminated into what must have been a very meaningful evening for him. Airdate: 4/5/89. COMPLETE SEGMENT
Carson obviously loved having heartland folks on, and he always treated them with the greatest respect and courtesy.
Johnny Carson: King of Late Night TV. King of interviewers. This video further proves it!
She is a great example of a lady and one that is humble! So refreshing to see a lady with a strong sense of right and wrong, and respect for herself and others.
A true American - they don’t make them like this anymore !
God Bless Grandma's sister!!!
I loved it when he'd have these segments with just everyday people instead of celebrities and politicians.
She’s precious 🩷😍
What a sweetheart
Reminds me a little of the Legendary Lee Canady
She is a tender and honest wise woman
I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Johnny was the greatest of all time
No one is better
What a great exchange
Johnny handled her with nuance and class and charm
So cute!
Wouldn’t see this now, by any of them
My favorite Johnny Interviews are ones like these!
My Mother's Aunt

Clearly out of her comfort zone.
