Comedian, author and talk show icon Dick Cavett drops by Gilbert's New York City apartment to sip Merlot and share personal memories of Groucho Marx, Johnny Carson and John Lennon, among others. Dick also talks about the time a guest dropped dead on his set (yes, it actually happened) AND favors Gilbert with some dead-on impersonations of his favorite obscure character actors!

I had a day off in NYC and crossed paths with Dick Cavett. I had nothing better to do, so I followed him. He did look back at me once but must have decided I was harmless. (I am.) He walked up Park Ave. to I think E. 79th St. and entered a brownstone, at which point I moved on. Along the way it was fun to watch the doubletakes from pedestrians walking in the opposite direction recognizing him.
