its amazing that his physical ship had sailed and he knew it, but his wit, his cutting humor was just so spot on. It's just real sad to see someone knowing that the end is near and doing all of these get-togethers as a swan-song of sorts. But I agree with you, just breaks the heart.
Rickles called Snoop the black Sinatra. That is a royal compliment. You know how many celebrities have tried to emulate Frank through the years? Clooney, P Diddy. Mconaughey. Rickles just settled it. Sorry, guys, but Snoop always did it his way.
Rickles didn't call Snoop the black Frank Sinatra. He said Snoop had referred to himself as the Frank Sinatra of the black world. Also I heard Frank Sinatra didn't like singing My Way because he thought it was arrogant saying he had no regrets.
what the That explanation of why Frank didn’t like My Way doesn’t make sense. If he felt that way about the song then why would he have recorded it in the first place? I read somewhere that he intended it to be his ‘swan song’ when he retired, a sort of summary of how he had lived his life. But then when he made his comeback, people had come to regard it as his anthem and wanted him to sing it at every show. In the end he got really sick of performing it but had become so associated with it that he couldn’t get away with leaving it out of his repertoire. To me, that seems to be a more rational explanation of his feelings about the song.
Snoop's posture towards Don was that of a student, learning and responding to the teachings of wisdom. Snoop was turned away from the table completely and directly at Don and almost as if he were sitting on the floor in front of Don as he spoke. This was such an awe inspiring moment to witness!
You won't see those changes when you are actually living them. The years we are living at the moment are not that much different than those in the last century
@@part4963 yeah that's why checking some of my old family photos is mind blowing to me. It's like a whole other world I lived in and never noticed it changing till I looked back.
Snoop was absolutely fantastic in this and genuine to the core! Don could sense that and warmed up to him immediately. This was a great watch! Respect to 2 legends in their fields, Don and Snoop!!
I'm not a hip hop or rap fan but the respect Snoop showed him,and the tribute he paid Mr. Rickles shows that he is a solid individual and and a man worthy of respect in , and of himself. Thanks Snoop, for honoring one of my Icons. snoo
I learned from snoops GGN show that snoop can be around literally anyone and know how to act with making the other person feel comfortable while still being himself. All about being respectful. Good job Snoop. RIP Don
I am so impressed with snoop, he can in this business as a hot head but, has open his ears and heart to learn what it takes to stay alive and be in the company of great a true legend!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Going into this, seeing Snoop with the hoodie, wasn't too sure how it'd go, but...fantastic! Seriously good chemistry between the two with Snoop showing respect AND asking good questions to keep the flow going. A+
The DeNiro/Scorsese and Snoop episodes are by far the two best of the series -- Snoop was terrific with Don here. RIP Don along with your wife Barbara and son Larry and Don's mother Etta, God bless you all
I know he lived a long life, but it still breaks my heart we don't have Don anymore...singular person. His legacy will live on for well past his lifespan
A comment on a different video saying Don was racist lead me to seek out this one. We all know he wasn't. I just wanted to see if Don Rickles and Snoop Dogg had actually sat down together. This video is absolutely beautiful. It is so beautiful to see two people from different areas of fame just talk as equals and be so humble with one another.
Don made racist jokes for the same reason he made all his other jokes, they were funny. If you watch the Merv Griffin interview with Rickles and Mr. T, Merv didn't really get the Rickles sense of humor and was actually disrespecting Mr. T, and after some gentler hints Don finally had to point out to Merv that he was friends with Mr. T and "_you're_ the outsider."
I've watched every one of the dinners with Don, this one is probably my favorite. I love the level of respect that Don, rest in peace, and Snoop have with each other, this is special
these souls are blessed.. Truly blessed.. They never leave their spark, their charisma, they never die.. Age is just a number for them.. yea it is sad to see him like this in this video.. Would never want such souls to get old or die.. They are here just to spread happiness that's it.. Rip Don.. Love from India..
I love that Snoop was basically dressed like The Green Arrow! And this conversation was so cool! It was respectful in the best way; he wasn't trying to emulate Don's era, they were both being themselves, and they've both seen some shit in their day, but it wasn't a contest, just a very sweet exchange between two lifer entertainers!
Dude this video is great, don was almost a shell of himself because of age but he was all there in a way he was trapped inside himself. One of greatest ever
Thank you AARP for Publishing these for us. These had to be some of the last shows Don Rickles made before his strength started to catch up with his age, I cherish every word that comes from him and these clips are just precious. A legend. RIP Don!
"I'm half of what he is .. I'm trying to be whole". So succinct. Concise. But also bristling, bursting even, with ambition, but with super smooth chillaxification. Mark of a quality lyricist.
These two have an odd connection (other than just incredible talent), I can hear both of them forever. Don because he's so damn funny, and Snoop, because his rap is SMOOTH...it just rolls without any pain to your ears. Great post.
I've watched a few of these Don Rickles interviews just before we lost him, and I mist say this is perhaps the best of them all. Snoop is a great conversationalist and keeps up with Rickles wit without patronizing him or treating him as "less than" just because he is so advanced in age.
Mad Props to Snoop Dog for showing Don all the respect he deserves.. But especially so nowadays when our elderly hardly ever see it let alone feel it or hear it!! love u SNOOP!! That was SWEET!!!!!!
Snoop, you're the only rapper that climbed out the box and diversified your brand name. You have grown to be a affluent person because of it. Thank you for breaking the restrictive chain of stereotype. Although you held down your spot, you've evolved much bigger than just being a rapper.
"Best thing in the world is do what you do". Great advice from a legend. Love Snoop. He's so respectful and he is very knowledgeable of history of music and entertainment. Class act. Looked like Don enjoyed talking with Snoop.
I commend you Snoop, I love your versatility! Brother you have gone a long way and have paved a path for a lot of other entertainers! I love you work and have enjoyed your music since your start with Dr. Dre!
For real. Snoop has always been quick but this is really impressive. My estimation of him has really been raised. If you can make Don smile you doin something right- if you can make him smirk… youre really winning. I know there’s editing but you can see snoops huge adoration for don. Huge respect. It’s really wonderful.
RIP Don Rickles ~a blessed soul & a Comic that broke through barriers on his terms of being authentic in innate talent of expression. Glad Snoop Dog had a sit down with him being someone who paved his own innate talent of his Generation and sharing their experiences heart to heart. Peace & Blessings
Murdered by Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran, who will be played by Robert De Niro. That scene will be depicted in the movie and Jim Norton will play Don Rickles.
Snoop Dogg was interviewed by Tom Snyder who had a late night talk show I believe it was after Johnny Carson show probably 30+ years ago. That’s when I fell in love with Snoop Dogg. He was funny, witty, smart, and I remember him talking about his children saying kind words.I have great respect for him… Even if it does smoke quite a bit of marijuana, he’s cool.❤❤❤

No thanks AARP.
@@oldcountryman2795 no u.
Snoop is low life. Don wouldn't talk with him if he was full of his senses.
@@user-nc9pc3gr4c After hearing that, Don wouldn't talk to you.
@@hypnotoad28 Don is barley hanging on here. This is a pathetic legacy play
Breaks my heart to see just how old and frail Don was in this clip... but the mind was still there. Sharp as ever. So glad he never lost it.
He was 90
Yea I guess this was towards the end. Awesome thing to see him with snoop
It really is heartbreaking, his vessel was fading to nothing but he was still in there sharp as ever. Time gets us all in the end.
its amazing that his physical ship had sailed and he knew it, but his wit, his cutting humor was just so spot on. It's just real sad to see someone knowing that the end is near and doing all of these get-togethers as a swan-song of sorts. But I agree with you, just breaks the heart.
It's terrifying but it's also a privilege to suffer from old age, it's something many never get afflicted with
RIP Don. Snoop showed his respect.
Respect snoop should have takin his sunglass's off.. Love the them two having a chat
indeed Richard, indeed!
@@tonga741 sunglasses indoors is a stoner thing. You gotta do it to get it.
yeah you don't wann look all blazed out so you keep them thangs on
Murphy w: correct.
These two guys couldn't be more opposite of each other...yet, that was perfect harmony. Way to go, Snoop...RIP Don, you were the greatest.
i did find the hangin' w/ "gangsters" similarity to be interesting.
Maybe not as different as you think....
They are alike. Their delivery was different. R I P. Mr. Warmth.
they seem very much alike
Good rap battles and Rickles’ style seem especially alike
Had no clue Snoop was such a decent interviewer. Great video. Don was the best.
I'm search to see if there's more. Outstanding job SNOOP!
He interviews a lot of artists on his youtube series "GGN News" look it up!!!
Yeah but all the guests seem to be doing the interviewing
Watch him doing ice hockey. A riot
He is always decent, high or not.
Snoop looking like a level 12 wood elf ranger
edit: level 420
He surely wore that to draw a comment from Rickles ... if it happened, it's on the cutting room floor.
#Savage 😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
this is the funniest shit I've ever read omg
That’s a damn good one bruh
Damn, Snoop knows a lot about old Hollywood. He's such a good interviewer too.
he is cultured
Snoop is an old soul. An Old G.
Why do i see u everywhere pardon
Yeah he kinda grew up with it, outside of his early rap life ofc. Im pretty sure I heard he was a cinephile so he knwos his movies.
He was born in the 70s generation X, not cell phones needed to be educated.. just a lot of reading.
Rickles called Snoop the black Sinatra. That is a royal compliment. You know how many celebrities have tried to emulate Frank through the years? Clooney, P Diddy. Mconaughey.
Rickles just settled it. Sorry, guys, but Snoop always did it his way.
Not to mention Jay Z, Logic. But yeah it is settled now.
@@arghyam6 put Jay Z in a room with Don Rickles and he would have ran out crying and screaming. Snoop is real
BLAHAHA nice one....Did it his way!!

You should.see him.amd Denzel on letterman, they showed nothing but love for each other and the respect was pure
@@ctwishkeyprn2039 that segment was Pure gold
Yeah but he should have taken his fucking glasses off.
Snoops humble, appreciative vibe always makes me smile.
Word!
He wasn’t so much like that as young man - but age has done Snoop well.
Even as he was losing to Father Time, Rickles was prime here.
"No I'm deaf..." Lol
Who would have thought, these two together was pure "gold!"
And I think Snoop had been smoking some 'gold'. Lol Great interview. 😎
snoop has more rapport with don than a lot of these comics
"Vodka with a few ice cubes in it"
"Vodka on the rocks"
I guess they're more alike then I thought
One knew rock Hudson one knows ice cube
@@mrebysan This is beautiful, one of the greatest comment I've ever read.
@@mrebysan brilliant
Snoop did his homework.
Great line Snoop...'I'm half of what he is now, I'm just trying to be whole'.
Snoop got Rickles to laugh. That he'll carry with him forever.
Snoop is a class act
What can one say about Don?
Genius
This guy amongst many others born in the 20s have lived the best possible life, just think of the changes in times these guys have seen! What a life!

After watching all of these AARP specials, Snoop and Don here is by far the most authentic and best out of this series.
Billy Crystal for the win in my opinion
Snoop was so sweet and respectful
Love snoop 🤩
"The Rickle Down Effect"....sharp Snoop.
Snoop is so well spoken and respectful, and completely holds his own with all the stories, this is so awesome, love them both!
Snoop knows how to interview, he asks the right questions, has good rapport. Don Rickles is an american icon!
Snoop was absolutely fantastic in this and genuine to the core! Don could sense that and warmed up to him immediately. This was a great watch! Respect to 2 legends in their fields, Don and Snoop!!

"I'm half of what he is now. I'm trying to become whole." Snoop about Don. Two great men.
@T S Wow, u r a rapperist. i never met 1 of u b 4. Being white (obviously) do u not even like Em?
@T S Well that's cool :-)
Not roasting Snoop was high praise from Rickles. You could see the respect they had for each other.
Don was such a sweet man. It’s touching to see these two communicating.
I am so impressed with snoop, he can in this business as a hot head but, has open his ears and heart to learn what it takes to stay alive and be in the company of great a true legend!!!❤❤❤❤❤
May not like Snoops music, but I love his character and heart.
And Don seems to enjoy his company as well which means a lot.
Mr Warmth! The greatest!! Brings tears to my eyes because this world will never experience that again!
Snoop asked THE best questions of all these dinners I have seen. Seemed to really connect with Don and they both came out looking great.

This is dope. Don Rickles, one of the stand-outs, a legend.
The fact that Snoop had this sit-down with Don shows Snoop as a man-of-distnction.

Very true
This is brilliant!! So much respect between Don and Snoop, real questions, real answers. R.I.P. Mr Don Rickles. ❤️
This was the sweetest combination ever.
This was great. Loved Snoop in this, nice job chatting with Rickles.
I'd love to see Snoop chat with more people . I'd definitely watch.
Ilovelosangeles look up his "ggn news network " videos on here then. He interviews a lot of people.
He also has a show with Martha Stewart.... they cook together with various guests.
Well hopefully ya are watching him now.
Talk about odd couples. But these two compliment each other perfectly. RIP Mr. Rickles.
Rickles telling Snoop "You're gonna pay for that" is the ultimate compliment. At that point he realized Snoop is the sharpest rapper in the game.
"I'm half of what he is now, I'm just trying to be whole" Loved that. Great chemistry and respect between these two. This was so enjoyable to watch.

I can’t even describe how seeing and listening to these two personalities together having a conversation makes me feel. Maybe this is inspiration?
Man, it's been a trip to watch Snoop grow up through the years and become himself. That is something else. 👍
This interview is a thing of beauty!
Two masters of their craft just sitting back and cutting it loose.
Classy beyond belief.
THIS is one of the BEST videos ever!
Snoop was masterful listening, responding, and really talking to Don. What a great interview.
