Getting to Yes, And… | Mike Thomas – ‘Carson the Magnificent’

Second City Works presents "Getting to Yes, And"

Kelly sits down with old friend Mike Thomas to talk about “Carson the Magnificent,” a book about the iconic talk show host Johnny Carson. The legendary Bill Zehme began the book but never finished it. Years after Bill’s death, Mike was brought on board to complete the book.

“And so, like sun and moon and oxygen and ionosphere, Johnny Carson was always there, reliable and steadfast.” 

“He was also mothered by omission.” 

“Work was easy for him, family was not.”
