When late-night television talk shows were entertaining.
This is for those who are political junkies and history buffs.
Prior to his presidential run in 1968, former Vice President Richard Nixon made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. His appearance on the show took place on November 22, 1967.
Until today, I had never viewed this episode. Back on Christmas Day in 1974, my parents gave me Here's Johnny... Magic Moments From the Tonight Show record album (pictured below). Included in the album was a recording of Nixon's appearance. (Yes, I still do have the album.)
After viewing the video, I noticed that the record had the segment not in the actual order.
The audio is scratchy until about 1:50 minutes in, but it clears up. Trisha and Julie Nixon were in the audience and were introduced.
It is an interesting interview and well worth viewing, so I have it posted below:
