S2E10 - He's French and He Sings - Charles Aznavour 120 over 80

    • Society & Culture

Oh, but he's so much more than that. This week's guest star is French crooner Charles Aznavour. Known to many as "the French Sinatra", Aznavour lived a long and fascinating life. We talk about the impact of French culture in America, Aznavour's progressive politics, and deep connection to his Armenian roots and we tell some French army jokes right off the top. Plus, Scooter works with Gonzo on his act, and Piggy is driven mad by Aznavour telling her she needs to have her transmission and tire pressure checked in French.

Next Week: Harvey Korman

The Muppet Show - The Walt Disney Company
