I remember the Joe Pyne show! He had some “interesting” guests on there!
In the ‘60s of my youth it was considered a badge of honor to walk off a tv show when the host or fellow guests got rude or inconsiderate. It was soooooo fun to watch a star rip off the microphone, throw it on the table and stalk off the stage. Jack Paar practically had a guest walk off every night. I can remember when Lily Tomlin almost never made it past the intro, lol!
Times have changed and now stupid guests sit there and take it and it’s considered “brave” somehow. The last person to walk off the set was the late, great Bob Novak on some stupid show with James Carville.
I salute Christine - bringing back the best of the ‘60s!

When you are being compared to Lester Maddox, you have a problem. It’s not a compliment.
