First time I can remember Johnny seemingly outside his element dealing with the brand of comedy Howie brought to the table. I loved Howie's early standup routines.
"I got up in the middle of the night to stub my toe. I slipped and went to the bathroom." These are my favorite jokes. Immediately understandable, relatable, and anyone could have thought of it. Jokes like this are perfect in my opinion.
"An escalator can never be broken . It can only become stairs" (Mitch Hedberg) Another great upload of the Tonight Show and the King of late night TV... Howie had hair back then....LMAO
When I was a little kid in California in the 70sI couldn't get away from watching Johnny Carson late at night and I remember Howie Mandel being young and funny and I look back today he's so fast so off the wall he was basically a genius before anybody knew it.
His personality is so infectious here. There is a sense of happiness at this time in his life, perhaps youth, his inner child showing through more than other appearances I have seen. That said he always debuts in an aim to bring a smile, it seems. 🙂 Whenever he is of course not talking on about serious topics.
Back in the day I worked at Children's Palace toy store in Toledo, Ohio. He was in town for a show(s), he came to the store, for props, whatever, a lady, bragged about for weeks, was his guide for his shopping trip!
You might be about 16 7 then on November 29th this year 2022 saw his birthday would be November 29th to 2022 and this year on the 29th right after Thanksgiving happy birthday 🥳🎈🤠 🎂🍨🌠🎁☕🤡🌈🎉🍀🎤 Howie Mandel!
I forgot how funny Howie was. I remember seeing this when I was a kid. I laughed then and I laughed now. What a classic. Oh the good old days. Life was simple in those days.
So happy that Howie is still going strong today! I know he has been on AGT for the last few years, I've seen clips here on TH-cam. Keep doing what you do, Howie, we love you!!! 🌼 Loving your 1st Time videos!!! 👍👍
Nothing against Howie, I do think he's funny, but nothing he said here requires any kind of quick wit. He's not responding dynamically to the current situation. He's just going through a series of bits that he scripted ahead of time.
I only know Howie from AGT. I had no clue he would make me laugh so hard. My favorite humor is U.S. English. Meaning is in the head of the listener. Howie can twist anything. "Got up to stub his toe, fell on the toilet."
I love it. Old school weirdo fun. Johnny always found such wonderful Caracters. I could have a terrible day and forget all about it. The rest runs still do that for me.😁😁😁
I actually laughed out loud. Laughed so hard I have tears in my eyes. This was an education for me. I don't need to be afraid of a fish with a stripe when I snorkel any more.
@@twistoffate4791 Yes I remember it well. With the same voice, he would also do an impression of Brooke Shields as a child and say, " The only thing that comes between me and my Calvin Kleins is caca!" LOL, had me on the floor when I first heard it!
I remember watching Howie's HBO special back in the 80s. I had recorded it on VHS and loaned it to someone, and the idiot lost the tape. It also had Sam Kinson's appearance on Rodney Dangerfield's 9th Annual Young Comedians Special. I no longer loan things out to people.
I remember him and Ed Begley Jr on St. Elsewhere. I also remember his brother, a hypnotism act, came to our high school. Howie was the original sketch gag artist before Carrot top back in the day. Amazing how the 80s catered to dead laughter crowds.
I knew Howie during these days. Used him on a couple of shows. Funny as hell. He used to do the surgical glove over his head and blew it up with his nose.
I saw Howie on CTV here in Burnaby BC......he was on a show called " make me laugh ".......some buddies and I drove down to the studio to see if we could meet him......turns out it was a taped show and he wasn't there.....followed his career ever since......just a funny guy with a Great sense of timing and absurdity
Howie used to end every comedy performance by stretching a latex glove over his head to just under the tip of his nose, inflating it by blowing it up by breathing through his nose, and then letting it shoot into the air like a rocket. After one performance he had an excruciating headache and went to the doctor to find out he had collapse his sinus cavity. He never performed it again.
I saw him perform at Yuk Yuk's in Toronto, when he was just starting out. He was always the headliner, on last, because no other comedian could follow.
God Bless Howie for his bravery Johnny was a class act throughout Inventive spot Howie should have pulled back and left more room for Johnny, but he was younger then I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
In 1984, I had dinner 🍽 with him in downtown Toronto. I forgot the name of the restaurant. It was near The Harbour front. Super nice, funny & a gentleman. I was 20 years old.
Stand up dialog. I only first knew of Howie as a judge on the talent shows. (Who else?) He was really funny! must have been difficult losing that fine head of hair!
I never knew he was that funny, and in those days he even shook hands.
Howie must have become germophobic later in life.
At the time he was up there with the best. Seems he's changed a lot. 2-:
It's why he shaves his head he got lice once
Everybody shook the hands of Johnny and Ed. They were living Gods back then.
Carson has been known to be funny now and then, and he always shakes hands.
He's so relaxed. I never saw him so calm and happy before.
I hope your being sarcastic, because he's literally acting like a coke addict.
@@newrealitygaming3933 Whatever you think dude

Have watched this often ... hilarious
Yes you're right. I don't ever remember Johnny having to catch up to the humour .
Off GUARD? so to speak! Howie is hilarious in this interview! 😜😜😜👍👍👍👍👍

Howie had hair back then....LMAO
“We apologize for the convenience”. 🤣🤣🤣
@@waynepolitte4659 lol huge Mitch Hedberg fan !!
Yah, but whose hair did he have?
@@Patriottoo2 That, my friend, is the real question...
So Howie Mandel had the idea first? Or was it bouncing around from one of those 1940s joke books?
WOW! What a first impression! Even Carson had no idea what was coming next. Johnny loved bang-bang-bang comics like this.
Howie Maaannnddddeeeellll, still crazy after all these years.

Johnny Carson launched so many carriers....if you made it on the Tonight Show you were pretty much a star 🌟
Carriers???
@@hammurds careers
Like he was building naval ships? Or was he part of the crew that would launch new ships in the ocean?
@@Meerkat000 phone carriers I think
Howie is so funny! This just made my day!
I've only known Howie as an AGT judge. I like his quirky, offbeat humour.
I laughed out loud at the fish joke. Was not expecting that 😂😂😂
Johnny Carson is the funniest part of Howie's bits.
“I don’t understand what I’m talking about” NOBODY DOES ITS BEAUTIFUL
That was delightful!
0:40 Ed McMahon: "What is this?! Im not drunk enough for this!"

He literally made me laugh out loud, one of the funniest conversations I ever heard, totally off the wall humor.

look at Howie shaking hands like a pro. i'm proud of you son!
I licked the vid to only watch a minute but stayed the whole vid dude was a comedy stud.
"Licked"...😅😂😅😂 You mean like a lolly pop. Man , you can't make this ish up. Almost as funny as Howie.😅😂😅😂
I love Robin Williams (RIP) & Jim Carrey! Never realized how crazy Howie was until I saw this! (& I'm almost 70).

Thanks for posting the air date, now we know to tell Howie ‘Happy Birthday, November 29th’😆🎉🎊🛍
That may not be his birthday don't forget who we are listening to 😂😂😂😂

Howie now days shaved his head and is a germ aphobic.
Howie had a super-quick comedy mind--like Joan Rivers.
Salute to a very long career
Joan Rivers was not pleasant in public. I don’t want to put Howie in that same memory.
@@susandangerfield148 Is Susan related to Rodney?
@@Patriottoo2 Rodney’s real name was Cohen. He borrowed the name back in the day for stage and kept it.
this is sooooo old

*Howie was my first favorite Comedian when I was 5. He was absurdly funny. Crazy how far he's come. I watch his podcast almost every week.*
Oh, wow, I'll have to look for that...glad he's still making you laugh.🤩
He's not funny anymore.☹️
He was only absurdly funny because you were 5....
@@jeanineerickson7303 I disagree, and couldn't care less about your opinion.
I never knew how hilarious Howie Mandell is!!!
I didn't either. All I've ever seen him on was Deal or No Deal and AGT. Never had seen his earlier stuff
OMG Howie is the BEST
I only know Howie from AGT. I had no clue he would make me laugh so hard. My favorite humor is U.S. English. Meaning is in the head of the listener. Howie can twist anything. "Got up to stub his toe, fell on the toilet."

I remember his comedy from back these days. I have tears from laughter still.
If you see a fish like that when you are snorkeling, it's not a fish because it's a drawing.
I actually laughed out loud. Laughed so hard I have tears in my eyes.
This was an education for me. I don't need to be afraid of a fish with a stripe when I snorkel any more.
Always a great time seeing Howie so so funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣

When Howie was his funniest! I remember watching this on TV.
Correct, now he's just funny looking.
Didn't realize he was so funny and had hair
He was hilarious and unique. Some of his earlier stand up routines were priceless!
@@rickmalone270 Remember when used to do his little Bobby voice, lol??

I remember Howie back then, funny man.
I had no idea Howie was this hilarious! Loved it. He was very good at being honestly funny with the stupid persona!
I remember watching Howie's HBO special back in the 80s. I had recorded it on VHS and loaned it to someone, and the idiot lost the tape. It also had Sam Kinson's appearance on Rodney Dangerfield's 9th Annual Young Comedians Special. I no longer loan things out to people.
I am totally going to use some of this on his talent show comments, just as soon as I watch one.
Crazy how his outfit would blend right in he time traveled to 2022
Johnny Carson rules
I love Howie.
I remember him and Ed Begley Jr on St. Elsewhere. I also remember his brother, a hypnotism act, came to our high school. Howie was the original sketch gag artist before Carrot top back in the day.
Amazing how the 80s catered to dead laughter crowds.
…and Mark Harman and Denzel Washington etc. Amazing cast and great show, far ahead of its time.
This was so incredibly funny!
I didn't know he was so funny, love the childish but super creative humor.
I remember when Howie would put a clearish rubber glove over his head and blow it up from the inside... hilarious, slayed!
Called a condom, son.

HE ACTUALLY SHOOK HANDS!!!!
I knew Howie during these days. Used him on a couple of shows. Funny as hell. He used to do the surgical glove over his head and blew it up with his nose.
I remember that one of the contestants on AGT did that gag during his audition saying, “ This is for you, Howie.”
Loved Howie. Him and his hand bag and rubber glove. LOL.
Sometimes we forget just how crazy and funny Howie used to be. It's great to be reminded of this from time to time.
Used to be- key word
Love him ~ he was a cute kid ~ great smile ~
I knew I wasn't dreaming about him having hair once
Oh, he's so funnnnnny!!! Thanks Howie.....😄
Never realized he was so funny
He is so high right now lol
I saw Howie on CTV here in Burnaby BC......he was on a show called " make me laugh ".......some buddies and I drove down to the studio to see if we could meet him......turns out it was a taped show and he wasn't there.....followed his career ever since......just a funny guy with a Great sense of timing and absurdity
He held the record for the shortest time to make his contestant laugh.
I had not seen this before. Howie had complete control over this "interview". Funny guy.
Lol 2022 wow Howie has come along way lol Germafobic and has a great career on AGT.
Oh how the tables have turned: from a clean dorky comedian to posting a prolapse. We will never forget
I was not ready for this to end.😂😂🤣
Great stuff.
This cornball humor still holds up today. Priceless!
Howie used to end every comedy performance by stretching a latex glove over his head to just under the tip of his nose, inflating it by blowing it up by breathing through his nose, and then letting it shoot into the air like a rocket. After one performance he had an excruciating headache and went to the doctor to find out he had collapse his sinus cavity. He never performed it again.
That was awesome!!!
wow Howie was funny as hell :D he gives me Michael Keaton vibes on this
The joke about the fish drawing literally made me howl with laughter
Ok I laughed out loud for real. I forgot how funny that dude was before he became a game show host.
😂This is how I remember him
Easy to see that Johnny and Ed ..weren’t real hip to Howies cutting edge humor . It took me awhile to catch on .
What ?? Did you actually watch this? They laughed like crazy!
1:15 in ... is this where Hedberg got the idea? Inception!?😂😂😂😂RIP.
A sister that’s just a painting got me good!
I saw him perform at Yuk Yuk's in Toronto, when he was just starting out. He was always the headliner, on last, because no other comedian could follow.
God Bless Howie for his bravery
Johnny was a class act throughout
Inventive spot
Howie should have pulled back and left more room for Johnny, but he was younger then
I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Love him. ❤️
So weird to see him shaking hands.
Yes, exactly. Very, VERY weird, knowing what we know.
Howie is hilarious !! Love the expressions on Johnny 's face !!
In 1984, I had dinner 🍽 with him in downtown Toronto. I forgot the name of the restaurant. It was near The Harbour front. Super nice, funny & a gentleman. I was 20 years old.
That was a fun interview. That's not his first appearance on Carson though.
full disclosure: not really a fan of Howie. but, WOW this was really really funny. LOVED it. Super cool to see him like this. Love this humor.
Pure genius. Wow.
Shook hands?🤣
This man was seriously hilarious, kind of reminds me of Stavros Halkias from these days.
I noticed that Howie didn't have his germ phobia back then..... He shook hands with Johnny and Ed...
I love how Johnny loses it for just a second after the Muzak record comes out.
I'm glad he did H3 podcast. Now I know how funny he is!
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}

He was just pretending to be like that. Don't you know the expression "it's all an act" ?

must have been difficult losing that fine head of hair!
It really was the day before his 29th birthday.
I always thought Howie Mandel was funny , I was shocked that he shook Johnny & Eds hand !!! 👍😂😂😂
This was way before some traumatic events happened in his life that caused his OCD.
Howie used to be unique and hilarious. He was up there with the best at the time. I'd forgotten how funny he was. 2-:

He’s naturally funny is what he is!
Don't you mean when he was naturally funny?
