Jonathan Winters unveils the un-PC character “Captain Arnold” (the bit turns up on the “Humor As Seen Through The Eyes Of” album). After the stand-up, he sits down and offers his JFK impression. Always great to see one of the true legends of comedy, a spontaneous genius at observing and twisting reality.
Sadly, it’s doubtful anyone could do the same routine on national TV these days. Would bring down the PC police!
