Demond Wilson has a deep perspective of life & an incredible eloquence in sharing his career. I loved this very, very much & as a child of the 70's I watched Sanford & Son often and later in reruns throughout the 80's. Second banana to Redd Foxx which he embraced knowing how intrical his role would become. You can see the loving heart he possesses & his love & devotion to Foxx. Thanks so much for the Podcast sir & many, many wonderful memories of Demond's portrayal of Lamont Sanford! To this day that show is highly quotable, progressive & truly unforgettable!
Thanks so much for having the handsome, talented and legendary Mr. Wilson on your show. I'm a huge fan, and he looks great.
One thing about older folk, they don't tell you what they heard, they tell you what they know. He's right about people staying married. I grew up with Mexican families, white Croatian families, Italian, Filipino families, and black. Mom and dad were right there bless their souls. Maybe a widow here or there, but generally, 2 parents. Demond brought back a lot of memories and pictures in my mind of my neighborhood.
Wilson comes from a classy structured upbringing I appreciate his insight
I love listening to Bro. Wilson, you don't have to ask him any questions, just let him talk. He lays it all out!
I watch Sanford and Son every Day,love the show,Ester and Fox are my favorite,
Best show ever.
All of them were great!!
Wow if only we had more men like this.
Thank you so much for this enlighten and insightful interview. Mr. Wilson is an amazing talent.
Now we got men who wanna dress and act like females it's a damn shame
We do, I'm one and agree with everything Mr. Wilson says.
Man, we could learn a lot from this Brother, Demond Wilson. Great example of sage, street-wisdom.
Never thought mush of him on Sanford and son, but what a cool interview, I have gain a new respect for him and all that he's done I have to dig more into him, like I said, what a cool interview!!!
I think he was great , the greatest acting he displayed! Every episode was hilarious!
I'm an 80s baby and i am familiar with all these people that Mr. Wilson is naming. Just an old soul here. Great interview.!
Hello. This is Henry. I want to say thanks for everyone who watched this interview. The picture we posted was an error, (that's not his wife) but an error on our part. Regardless, we hope that doesn't take away from the amazing interview. I enjoyed interviewing him. If you would like to see more content please consider subscribing. God bless. You're all awesome
I just searched fir that movie Eleanors Bench. Great interview
Bless you bro. You doing great things. I love your spirit and we all make mistakes.
Maybe you can edit the interview with the correct wife and repost 🙌🏾🙌🏾❤
Great interview Bro. Henry. I absolutely love your respectful kind manners as you were interviewing Mr. Demond Wilson. I also love the way you kindly listened and allowed him to speak. I liked the natural flow of the questions and dialogue. I can tell that the way you interacted with Mr. Wilson your interest and goal was to find out about him as a person. It was refreshing to see how relaxed and comfortable Mr. Wilson is with this interview.. ❤ . Your goal was not to get his opinion on the drama in Hollywood. Which to me shows that your admiration and genuine interest in him was not based on the number of views or likes.. Bro. Henry thank you for your mature insightful interview.. Keep up the good work. I look forward to viewing more interviews from your show.. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️….⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩. 😍😍😍😍😍😁
This was the only interview I've seen where Demond Wilson was actually civil and polite. He's usually quite rude and condescending to people who interview him. I actually enjoyed this interview.
Not rude they are on his time. The interview person should have all their facts together
Yeah. He likes people who prepare for interview. He finds it rude when they don’t.
@@morenotheartist and that's fine but he's notoriously rude and condescending in most interviews. He was kinder to this man because he is aware he shares his views on the Christian faith. He has many interviews on TH-cam and he's a not a nice man.
Exactly. I've seen many interviews where he acts like a very arrogant, self-righteous, rude and cocky prick. Extremely condescending and disrespectful personality of a man.
Mr. Wilson doesn’t like interviewers who attempt to draw gossip or try to get him to disparage other people and as he has stated he reads the energy of people he engages with so if they come at him with loaded questions or are unprepared he doesn’t have any patience for it. Compare this interviewer with the one from comedy hype and the reason for the different attitude is very clear.
I have seen and heard a few interviews on Demond Wilson, he seems to really enjoy doing this one. 👍🏽
Maaan Demond is a great interview. The man is dropping wisdom wherever he goes. He’s right. As far as home life and two parent households yes that was the norm not all that long ago in “black culture” if you wanna say. Most all my heroes growing up, mostly athletes Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Kirby Puckett, Eddie Murphy and Demond were from strong two parent households. Which gave them the tools to achieve greatness.
Excellent point regarding two-parent households. I’m 51….I can recall when it was an insult to say….”that’s why you ain’t got no daddy!”😆 Today, however, fatherless homes are so prevalent amongst black families, it’s no longer insulting. Sadly, it’s an accepted norm.
Demond Wilson is one of my most favorite actors of all times! I was born in the late 1940s myself and MARRIAGE was the norm! My husband and I had 2 children and we had every intention of staying together, but my sweetie died in 1989 from a massive coronary, and I became a widow! By the grace and help of Jesus Christ I raised our son and daughter who are now middle aged and THEY are both saved and are MARRIED, Praise God Almighty!!!
Good for you!! Stay well and positive!
The more I hear Mr.Wilson,the more I admire him.
Thank for interview i miss Demond Wilson.
New subbie Demond is a gem for the culture. Last of a dying breed 😢
You are 100% correct!!
@@FrankGina2016agree!! So much wisdom and life experience!
Really enjoyed this interview. The realness. Thank you Demond for sharing your life with us.
It's awesome to see such a strong man with a Christian moral existance to be regarded with honor and respect. Im grateful to eitness his lifed testimony of life. God Bless this gentleman.
He's right, in the 60's I took etiquette classes vocal lessons music lessons played sports foot ball wrestled played basketball etc wanted swim in the Olympics swimming seam competitive from 22 to 16 swam 2 a days training it was different we were a poor family pops worked 2 jobs and mom worked too.b
This man dropped nothing but the TRUTH! From the entrainment industry, to the role of a man and a woman, to working a regular job
Thank you Mr. Wilson thank you so much. I'm so glad you're a servant of the Lord. I loved your show.
I love Brother Demond, and I have a lot of respect for him. First, because He’s a Brother in Christ. Also, because he served our Country. I also love his work. Grew up watching him. There are very few people left in show business for whom I have respect, but Brother Demond is one of them.
The photo is not demond wilson wife. That was an error on our part, and we apologize. We hope that doesn't take away from this amazing interview. Thank you.
Ron Glass 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 !!! Take the Gl out of Glass...My bad....
that was Miss Denice Nichols
This was great
I knew it wasn’t but figured it was an error ! All good 👍
Lovely interview Henry, enjoyed it.
How refreshing to hear from a man's man.Take note,gentlemen.
I’m a man and I approve this message! I only hope that someone in this generation of kids will step up to carry the torch of “ true manhood” as he has so eloquently put it once we’re gone. Hats off to Demond and best wishes.
Great interview bro! He’s a class act. I was born in 67 and grew up watching the show.
He looks amazing. Great interview.
He looks 57 .. but he is in his 70s !
His Redd Foxx impersonation 😂
He sounds more like Redd Foxx than Redd Foxx does.
I Love it.....❤😊❤😊❤
@@mickcrovo5238
I can’t believe it! I actually said the same thing when I saw him in another video!!
God Bless his wife, having 6 kids and cooking. Proverbs 31
Demond Wilson does the best and only imitation of Redd Foxx! I hope to meet Demond one day, as I am also a Christian.
Thanks for this, what an intelligent man brother Wilson.
Will join
Off
I still watch this show, love it too.
Demond is an awesome guy. I watched LOTS of Sanford and son. And he is very relevant to what is going on now.
Yes he was a great actor
very smart man. Loved him as Lamont Sanford
Demand Wilson is very articulate and intelligent.
DEMOND*.
Demond is a good man& a skilled actor. He was born with special skills and he used then well. Great respect for him.
Real big fan of brother Redd and DesmondGod bless him in Yeshua Jesus name Amen.
This was one of he best inteerviews of Demond that I've seen, you are a great interviewer
That Norman Lear interview a couple of days ago was a train wreck
yea props to the interviewer for laying the ground and stepping to the side.
That is not a picture of Demond's wife, that's a photo of him and actress Denise Nichols.
was in love with her
what a treat, awesome interview. glad to see he's doing well .
This was Gold!!!
I loved this interview…yes Sir 🔥🔥🔥
That was a spot on Red Foxx impersonation 😂😂😂
I still watch Sanford And Son, Lemont was a great character.
Great interview! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Demond is a legend, god bless yoll👍🏽👍🏽
I have been watching Sanford and son for a long time you are telling me a lot of things that I didn't know about you you were and the military
I enjoyed Demond thoroughly. I must say, though, that Jesus, hasn't failed me yet! When I call Him, He answers! Hallelujah!
Parents married 70 years ! Wow
Awesome interview👍👍👍
Love this Conversation so much
Ron Glass looked like a light skinned Demond Wilson 😂🤣😂🤣 in the 1970s
So true. Demond is 100% right about the name YESHUA.
I THINK THIS IS INCREDIBLY OUTSTANDING & SUPER DUPER SUPERB AWESOMENESS ❗️🙏🏾ANCHOR ANCHOR BRAVO 💜BRAVO 💪🏾🍷🍾🍷🍷
What a refreshing interview! And what an interesting an intelligent Brother Demond Wilson is, certainly no "Dummy". It is So good to see him, and see him doing so well!
Love & respect Demond so much. Been following him from Sanford & Son all the way through to watching him on TBN when he became a minister.
This was great
Loved this interview of Demond.
I loved listening to him discussing his faith as well.
Sanford and Son is probably the funniest sitcom
I have ever watched. God Bless
Fantastic interview, as an Army veteran, I never knew that Demond was ever in the Military, much less a Nam veteran. I severed from 1977-1983, the Cold War error. I do know that most Viet Nam veterans do not really like talking about their experience, and I knew a few that are still mentally affected by it. Thank your for the interview, it was very interesting to hear about the Brother's life. and life experiences. His Redd impersonation are hilarious and spot on!!!
I'm from Valdosta Georgia also and I still live here now
Yessir! I'm from Valdosta too. Sermons, Askew, Nelson, and Battles are my folks. The man who ran the cemetery is my grandfather Mr. Melvin Nelson.
I Associate Valdosta Georgia with high school football back in the day thanks for sharing.
Demond is so right on with Yahshua ha Mashiah and the three days what a blessing to get to hear this interview.
Very interesting interviews. Enlightening.
Smart guy I like him
I bought his book, "Second Banana". It's terrible what Red Foxx did to his friends. From what I understood is that Redd Foxx grew up with some of the older people on the show, and he just walked away and left them without jobs. Wow!
I'd love to read it but I'm outside of the states right now. Did the book ever mention Redd's wife, Betty? Seems like the minute he split with her he went completely downhill.
He was responsible for them not being able to get jobs?!?
I heard the opposite !! He was responsible for getting jobs for others, listen to the Della Reese interview, listen to the woman who played Aunt Esther, he also played a part in shaping Eddie Murphy's career, that's why Eddie looked after RED in the end...RED not only helped many find jobs he was also a very generous man which was his weakness, that's why he ended up with no money apparently, he lived a lavish life n making ppl happy that he overspent, he says it in one of his shows that we live once n we should live happy...only he should have paid his taxes..
@josemejia9349 Sanford and Son was still a top ten show. Yes Redd caused them to be jobless. Blacks couldn't get jobs in tv. Sanford could have went on a few years
Wow. Glad I found this video. This was a far better interview than the one he did with Comedy Hype.
I wished I had seen this interview before the other one but nevertheless the interviewer did an excellent job and was respectful to Mr Wilson. Thank you Brother Henry for giving Mr Wilson the platform to give us insight on his career in Hollywood
Wow, it's awesome to see him doing well!
Great interview! First one I've seen of him where he is allowed to speak.
C'mom man the reason most of us are here is because we want to hear about Fred and Lamont
Love this interview! The interviewer has definitely done his homework on Demond Wilson!
Jesus, Allah, Elohim, Yeshua, God, Yahweh, Muhammad or WHATEVER...WHO CARES?....how does all these NAMES and SUPERSTITIOUS NONSENSE help anyone in this world?
It boggles my mind how grown adults think all of this SUPERSTITIOUS DOGMA is relevant to their existence and survival on this planet.
It truly boggles my mind how humans can get caught up into all of this RELIGIOUS NONSENSE that was INVENTED by HUMANS.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Unlike the terrible interviewer on Comedy Hype...
God bless him I was rise in a whole family from cousin as well as uncles & aunts who was all from 2 parents homes
I always looked at Damond as the voice of reason on Sanford and Son because he was .
Aaaaand Demond has arguably the GREATEST “STACHE” in TV history. Him and Tom Selleck of course.
Yes, lol! His mustache is legendary!
Great interview!!!
Growing up watching Sanford and Son Everyday , Every season , now to here all of the real life of it , to her you say what we could never see behind the scenes and camera is so astonishing to me Mr. Wilson ,being a decade or so younger I find my life is somewhat parallel in a sense of your, I could talk with you through out the rest of my life !
Interesting to know that Demond preferred Beah Richards, who played Aunt Ethel in the first year of the show, over LaWanda Page who played Aunt Esther.
I guess until he started getting his weed from her
Great interview.big fan of Demon Wilson.
Great 🎉interview 👏
AWESOMENESS!!!!
I Love it...........❤😊❤😊❤
Wow this was awesome
Demond Wilson aka big ol dummy, very good actor can't see anyone else playing his role that role was cut out for demond. Stay cool demond
Bro Henry thank you for a great interview. Being a huge SAS fan I thoroughly enjoyed Demond Wilson. I remember hearing about his call to the ministry and that he was doing it full time. I’m a word guy as well and love studying Gods word. I answered the call in 1982 one year before Demond. I enjoyed hearing him speak and talk about the word. I believe Demond knows my cousin Lamonte McLemore of the fifth Dimension if you interview him again please ask. Thanks again my brother.
Great interview❤ Really enjoyed this! Thank you so much!
I so much enjoyed this interview, I don’t follow or keep up with Hollywood stars past or present. This is a refreshing update on one of my favorite actors. However, I do not appreciate the women bashing part of the interview. There was not a mention of how a lot of men these days are out there taking advantage of women. Or how a lot of them would rather stay home and play video games in their underwear instead of working a job. I once heard a famous Hollywood/Atlanta star say if only a man can afford is the energy bill in the said woman’s house, a woman should marry him and have him move in. If a grown, marriage age man only has $200-300 a month to spare for energy bill, maybe he should be looking for a job not a wife. Mr. Wilson talked about spoiling his wife, a lot of men out there wants the reverse. And on single mothers saying they don’t want a man, of which I am proud to be to 3 adult children, that is mostly not true. if a woman loses her husband, then decided to stay single and focus on her children there’s nothing wrong with that. Some women out there prey on single mothers, some would even molest or abuse the children! If a woman says she doesn’t need a man after a couple of “no goods” men, I don’t think men like that should be bashed. A woman who lost her husband did not willingly decide to be a single parent. That’s just my POV.
god bless demond ! thanks for sharing your life with us !
Young man, you're a very good interviewer and listener😊
Thanks demond I never new that thank you brother respect
I have spent hours watching Frankie Lymon on TH-cam. So much talent.
Great interview!
What interview? Demond talked the entire time. Smh
@user-oh9ks2mr2c and you listened the entire time. Must have been a great interview.
Demond Wilson "I, I, I...Me, Me, Me" other than his self absorption...I believe Demond is a very good man.
And he's apparently very direct.kinda sassy in a way.
Demond Wilson shows his high iQ ..
I don't understand how people find him so wise and intelligent? I find him narcissistic, arrogant ect. This guy knows everything. I'd always heard he was a difficult person to deal with, but hearing him speak confirmed it. Sister conducted a very good conversation.
A male conducted this interview
(3:38) I've watched several interviews online with Mr. Wilson and every time he mentions his wife the video editor inserts a picture
of Mr. Wilson and Denise Nicholas, an actress from the 1978 tv show "Baby I'm Back".
*DENISE NICHOLAS IS NOT HIS ACTUAL WIFE.*
Keep up the good work.....❤😊❤ ....Henry.
I dig this interview along with another he did on The Write Stuff. He comes off very respectable and decent in these. The others I have seen, he comes off like an arrogant asshole not only because the interviewers didn't do their research on him before having him on but because they expected him to be more like Lamont Sanford, a fictious character that he portrayed. You can't talk to him about the Hollywood foolishness that these other interviewers do on several outlets. He received his calling to preach and he's old school so a person like him you have to come correct. I used to interview people on radio and you must do your homework on that person. Otherwise, you will make an ass out of yourself and they will let you know it to the world. Another thing I want to point is that the interviewer stays engaged and lets Demond finish what he is saying while cutting or jumping in, unlike Comedy Hype. That was an embarassment.

Totally on point comment nice 👌
Blessings & Peace 🕊
It’s kinda sad that Demond Wilson retired from acting after 2005. Always wondered whatever happened to him.
He seems pretty happy and content with his current life. When you (not you per se) truly accept Christ you are content. Also, he did say that he didn’t associate with the Hollywood cliques and parties.
I used to think he was down and out, so to speak. I grew up in the Sanford and Son era and observed numerous artists of that time who fell on hard times, either because they weren’t paid their fair share or because they squandered their money, not investing it, usually due to not knowing about investing.
Yah-weh is the sound of the bronchial breath under a stethoscope. We say his name everytime we inhale and exhale. Do not take the Lord's name in vane. The breath of life is God's name. ❤
When you wake and yawn you clearly hear the name. Yah-inhale, weh-exhale.
How does this Yahweh broncial breathe superstitious stuff help ANYONE? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I Love Mr. Demond Wilson......❤😊❤😊❤
I once met Forest Whitaker…he was too a intellectual and came off as a genius
Demond is one of them superior beings, from another realm of thought process. Not that I am. But I agree with most he said.
I'm glad to see Mr. Wilson isn't a regular run-of-the-mill preacher!
