I don’t like these modern day roasts. The Dean Martin roasts were the best. I like to watch all the old stars that I had forgotten about on those on You Tube. They were funny and not mean spirited even though they were taking slams at people.
And we just lost a frequent participant today, Phyllis Diller.
I had the displeasure of being invited to a Friars Roast once. It was so dirty, pornographic and nasty I didn’t understand half of the jokes! I do remember giving Aretha Franklin a cheer after she threw the bird at a comedian who was making the worst fat jokes about her.
