FROM THE ARCHIVES: Jackie Mason interview #1 (2001) with Darren Paltrowitz
Jackie Mason is one of the most successful stand-up comedians of all-time, first finding mainstream success in the 1960s via appearances on "The Tonight Show" and "The Ed Sullivan Show." Touring and television success aside, Mason has also written many books and starred in numerous award-winning one-man shows. He has also kept up with comedy trends, publishing podcasts and YouTube videos in recent years.
When I spoke with Jackie Mason in 2001 -- my first time interviewing him -- he was regularly still touring all over the world, then looking to promote an upcoming appearance at Long Island, New York venue Westbury Music Fair. We spoke about that, but also discussed a variety of other topics, including performing for the Queen of England numerous times, then-current events within the U.S. political spectrum, what he was still hoping to accomplish, where his accent comes from, his relationship with Judaism, and me.
Were my interviewer skills as a 19-year-old great? Nope.
Is the sound quality of this one -- converted from a 20-year-old cassette, as recorded on speaker phone -- great? Also a nope.
But Jackie Mason was indeed patient with me, and it was a pleasure to speak with an entertainer whose work I have enjoyed for decades.
