How come Demond "big dummy"Sanford hated on Red Foxx😂?
"Talk to me brother, don't look at them notes!" 😂
You didn’t do your homework brother
Bruh?! You are an embarrassment to the interviewing industry!😂🔥💯 You made it hard to stay here... but I did it for that Black Foundational Descendant of americanKKK holocaust SLAVERY beliver!🔥💯
He disrespected the man on so many levels smh
Holy crap!! Demond said everything everyone is afraid too. I'm not sure the interviewer was even ready for this type of real.
Unfortunately, neither is most of the world. Most people have no idea what is going on
lol got that right he was laying it DOWN!
Dang yes, i had to rewind a few times.
@@newtaurus1 Lol me too.
This young interviewer didn’t get it. Demond does not owe anybody anything. Redd dug his own grave Demond has no responsibility to save him!!! Demond is the real. Loved hearing from him.
If Demond Wilson only knew how respected he is by us . 🙏
I remember being a child and teenager watching him. I had the biggest crush on him. He, Redd, and Lawanda Page are still my favorites. I'm still watching Sanford and Son now( in my 50's). Mr. Wilson is just as handsome now as he was back then. Redd was very seasoned. He and LaWanda were standup comedians before the show was even started. People don't want to hear it but he's right. It's like taking care of a family member who has messed up their money. Why in the world would you want to give them some of yours to mess it up too. They aren't able to help you. They'll move on to the next fool that will give them some. It doesn't make sense. It's unfortunate but true. Valdosta, don't live too far from there. He's true about that too. My dad died at home, just seen him an hour before. He wasn't being cruel it's going to happen no matter where you are. You just have sympathy and empathy. I'm a nurse. It happens on the toilet. I'm sure people didn't want it to happen that way but it does. This interviewer was Not Ready 😮😢. Didn't mean to write a book but you are so right. He still mean a lot to us.😘. A part of Americana. Not just Blacks but All!. We all at some time had these family situations. No matter who you are.
Desmond Wilson❤🙌🏽👏🏾
The man said he knew he was respected in the interview. Watch the interview before making typical dramatic comments
Desmond was good on the show
His imitation of Redd Foxx is perfection!
Absolutely genius man. I love everything Demond Wilson states in this interview. He is a man. He is a US Veteran and I hope he is Service Connected 100% from his service to the United States. He has the same wife from 1974. Please interview him again to help teach Black men how to be men. He is a true Black Man. Thank you for interviewing him. Brilliant wisdom!
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Homeboy picked the wrong interview to not “do his homework “ I still thoroughly enjoyed this. This is pure gold and for the ages 😂😅
Hell yeah. I can hear the irritation of Mr. Wilson’s tone which had me on pins & needles. I thought he was going to bail in mid-sentence.
Exactly
I agree. It’s truly disappointing and maybe disrespectful to not know much of anything about the man you’re interviewing.
I agree. He was not prepared for this interview. I hope that in the future, he does his research before inviting people to his show.
You ain't lying. I know Demond wasn't the one play with from another interview he did when he was asked about Norman Lear.
He basically said,"Yah big dummy!" In a nice way to the interviewer 😆
Yeah, it was rude.
LMAOOOOOOO!!!!!😂😂🎉😂❤❤😂😂😂🎉❤!!!!!
@@gregoryl.levitre9759I think so, too.😬
Em, em, em…. 💭
Who raised tht dude?? He came in and interviewed a sitcom Great… without researching, who does tht! Dick Gregory took them interviewers to task with their incompetence, he should’ve. A more informed interviewer would’ve gotten more wisdom, from an informed mind. Atleast We got 60% of the lesson, gems, and knowledge. Thank Mr. D
Sad that this interview is not in the millions of views because it should be. Demond is extremely insightful and very candid. I hope the interviewer understands the gift he just gave you. I’m sharing this with as many people as I can!
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
Exactly!!!
I really hope that you share this to as many people as you can! The bridge between the youth and are elders, it's very week unfortunately. If that bridge strengthens one day, the knowledge and bond of unity with everyone would blossom!
Wrong platform....no disrespect
You no the truth will never be acknowledged...... Now if he was speaking nonsense then he will reach the million views
LISTEN TO HIM!!!!!!! hear the true knowledge. Thank you for allowing Mr. Wilson to share the truth!
Dude wasn't ready for this. Demond is dropping deep historical information.
He wasn’t ready at all.
Interviewer was lost mentally
Why u think Denzel don't play that game but demond do got a point in Hollywood black Hollywood u don't leave clean lies look what happened to Michael Prince reason to smart for the biz when u know they'll destroyed u or death
Brother is dropping truth bombs. Wow.
Yes, he could not keep up with Demond at all! Everything Demond was saying was going over his head! And Demond was shaking his head!
Tough, articulate, a decorated vet, respected, polite and well spoken. Just what you need in a man.
Greatly informative We need more of this Now. Hopes he come Out with an platform, thou he speaks of His Higher Calling 🙏🏽
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN ❤❤❤❤
I know that's right! Lamont is a real man! It was so good to see this and was truly eye-opening for real!
I'm glad y'all like these characteristics. But that means y'all have to be the soft uplifting energy that up lifts Men up as well. Dudes from his age on up till about 2000 Are USED to hearing info like this.. spoken in the way he articulates it. He gave NO bs whatsoever. But this is why Men want soft women. At this level that Mr demond is at or trying to be.. we just want our women to realize, we want to lead the fam just like this Man is doing. Just respect us and be there for us.
@@theruddyone6443 Do "soft" people even really exist? Why do people keep trying to make other people conform to their own ideals of what they should be? Let men be who they are and let women be who they are, and it will all work out.
I’m so happy that Demond never fell for the okie doke and is still here to share his wisdom. He is so sharp and articulate. We need to celebrate this man. God bless you DEMOND. I thank God for you.
Wow, so glad to hear this. It's important to showcase Demond Wilson to a wider audience.
I did NOTTTTTT plan on watching this whole 52 minute video when I first clicked on it. And here I am 52 minutes later.
Omg same here 😂
Truly!!
lol same thing happened to me🤣😂😅
Ha!!!! You probably watch this thing in its entirety more than once 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same
Salute to a legend that killed it in the game and who didn't allow the game to kill him 💪🏾
Well said.
This is a prime example of not judging a book by its cover. I never knew Demond was this deep after all these years!
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
AMEN! man is that a TRUTH BOMB Bosstommy!
well said...
Demond was a beast in his day! This old dude is spitting real facts! Bro. is deep!
I watched this show every day, and I was born in the 80s. I appreciate my dad for introducing me to Sanford & Son.😊❤
Kudos! And my non english speaking Haitian Maman who was calling it out every day it played
" meiline?! senfird en son a 7" or (8), I was little...lol
Bless our folks.
lol!@@marieaug9322
Being Born in the Year of 89..this interview is pure gems..my dad got me on Sanford&Son. THIS IS PURE KNOWLEDGE..ALMOST 50 YEARS IN THE MAKING. GOD BLESS "LAMONT" FOR DOING THIS. EVERYTHING HE'S SAYING IS 💯. THE INTERVIEWER WAS NOT PREPARED AT ALL!
"I got a suit your age!" ...said it all. Demond needs his own podcast.
Exactly. This was crucial
Yeah yeah you're right I can see the Dmonth being the new Kevin samuals
Let's not get carried away. Nowadays everyone has a podcast. Don't need anymore
Yes!!!!! Someone who can preach and teach!!!
@@dins5066 There's room for everyone...expand your horizon!
THIS is how the elders speak! Loved it.
It's so damn refreshing 😍
Much love and big respect !❤
Exactly!!
Reminded me of The late Dick Gregory💡 😂🤞🏼🎯✊🏾
Same here indeed, like the people who raised Me.
Reminds me of the old school teacher from my era. Teachers didn’t play and didn’t fear the students! But because of the authority they demanded, you respected and feared them as leaders in those classrooms! He dropped some truthful nuggets about politics and our world!
Oh Yes!,The God's Honest Truth AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
Truth!!!
My brother you dropped the ball on this interview. Talk the man...he was giving you good information & you were looking for something else.
I agree. Because Mr. Desmond is of a pedigree unlike many people this brother has interviewed.
How old are you? "I'm 35". I've got a suit your age.
OMG, I about dyed laughing!
That hurt me lol Sage og burn. I gotta use that lol
He said suits!
@@calvinhancock9748he said "suit"
Demond got that Dick Gregory energy and I love it 😂😂😂
He does,( Dick Gregory) " I seen the check nigga"! 😂😂
Yes he does have that Baba Dick Gregory energy
Old school wisdom and vibe, 💪👍🙏
Sho u right
I just said the same thing 😂
It's painful to watch interviews where the host doesn't research or pay attention to their intellectual guests. Just to listen to Demond was a joy!❤❤❤
He's definitely a poor interviewer!. You have no knowledge of the guest that you've invited onto 'YOUR' show!?. No notes ,nothing!. WOW!...😮 How to say I'm only doing this interview for likes & views without saying it.
@@SunRidahhe did have notes and he said stop looking at the notes and he said he's asking to set the record straight.😂😂😂😂 dude was just annoyed because he was asking the questions and he said he did not want to look like the bad guy and thats not what he was trying to do. Could have been better, but he was a little off.
Agreed 👍
Thank you for interviewing Demond twice...this man is astonishingly intelligent.
Man it's so refreshing to listen to an intellectual conversation for a change
Call it: Idiot meets intelligence
absolutely 💯 on that he definitely let me know I wasn't crazy on my theories 🎉salute to a king 🙌
Same here.
Facts

It’s so refreshing to listen to a real, straight up man like Mr. Wilson. Good for him for speaking the truth .
Agreed
Amen , We live in a world that the truth just doesn't matter any more ! I don't know if that is the precursor of corruption or if it is just the New technology, so to speak of corruption ! The truth does matter always as and will. It makes one feel powerless seeing so many wealthy talented people turn out to be such sale outs , or selling there souls to the Devil ! But oh how sweet it is , oh how inspiring it is to see and hear Mr , Sir Demond Wilson speak the truth. Wow ! What a true warrior and conquer of life! He did it his way ! Real Courage ! A Real Artist , A Real Man every boy should want to be , a Real Man every Man should want to be! What a great interview. I will be ordering ever book that Mr. Sir Demond Wilson wrote!
Thank you Sir.
Stay loyal to the truth no matter how ugly and evil it is no matter the Burden of the truth ! The Truth is the only damn thing permanent in life and in death !
And don't ware a fu#k'en Dress in public or on TV boys unless you are a Bit#h and are proud of it! Cry while you ware the Dress if ya want to Bitc#'es but don't Lie , be proud you a Beatch! 😂
😂😂
God Speed !
Truth? 🧢
Vietnam Vet with a Purple Heart. Thank you for your service!
I agree what a great person
I so love Demond Wilson’s transparency and willingness to educate the next generation on the truth.
I bet this young man will step up his game for the next iconic interview. This is a great example of his generation thinking they know everything and know nothing at all. The internet & technology have y'all fooled. Some things Google can't help you with. Demond is a class act. He schooled him just enough to motivate him to level up. The parting question and answer put a nice bow on the interview. Provocative and entertaining.
Absolutely agree with all you stated ,young ones have all the answers (on their phone ) no critical thinking available in most cases . Sad . If the internet was shut down we would have a lot of dummies running around. It scary .
Agreed 👍
Agreed 👍
He handled Demond very well. Didn't inject emotion in it. That's how you deal with strong character types.
He acted like he wasn’t used to being around a real black man😭😭😭
He hast to know how to put the notes down and flow in the conversation that is the ability of a great interviewer. Yes, you should have your notes, but you have to be able to work without that as well. And when you interview an OG you better you better you better do your homeworkis disrespectful if you don’t
He explained the Vietnam War in 2 minutes. More than anybody else did in 2 hours. Salute
🤦🏾♂️ This brotha looks GREAT to be 77 looks more like 47 health is wealth!!! 584k views with only 21k 👍🏾 SMH y’all go hit that like button this is PURE 24k GOLD 🏆💎 I’m 37 & I learned a lot from listening to Mr. Wilson ALWAYS take care of your business & study do your research! 🙏🏾
Very very few Black actors I could sit and listen to all day... brother Wilson.. yes sah! Excellent information.
I loved Sanford and Son. I never realized Mr. Wilson was so mindful and educated. Everything he said was spot on.
I didn't realize Grady Wilson was a real name.
That's because the show painted him in a different light .....he even said that's why he turned down television shows because he didn't want to be remembered as the star on that specific show
We need some more people like Mr. Demond Wilson in the world
There are millions of us! We're called REAL. Wokism is trying to cancel us. Fat chance!
It’s plenty. You just rather be entertained than be amongst the wise
That's for sure ❤
Brutal honesty. Much respect for Mr Wilson! Telling it like it was, is and may always be in the business.
Mr Demond reminds me of Dick Gregory when he would fuss at the interviewer...😂😅😂😅😂😂
When you get a legend like that and the opportunity to interview him. One-on-one you let the man talk. Please just let the man talk and you know let him say what feels because he wasn't well received after returning from fighting for his country and I as a person who may not have been around then would like to thank him for his service and let him talk. He's the only reason I watch halfway so and trust me it will excruciating to get through sometime because they were always not getting along that had to be hard for him to do that. It seems coming from the background that he's explaining that he comes from. Thank you for your service, Mr. Wilson
The world really needed this interview. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Brother Demond Wilson 🙏🏽
This man has touched my life in a profound manner.
DID
I HAVE EVEN MORE RESPECT FOR BRO. DEMOND WILSON. I LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT HIM FROM THIS INTERVIEW.💯✊🏿
Like what? That he is arrogant and rude?
@@revertinthemakingwear a helmet
@@revertinthemaking Exactly!
Thank you for your service, Demond! And thank you for the laughs on Sanford and Son! My dogs are all named after characters on Sanford and son.
Thank you, Mr. wilson. I loved the show. I can tell it's really you that your voice has not changed.
Demond Wilson for sure ain’t no Big Dummy!!! Loved hearing his perspective. Thanks for this interview
Right, good one ......lol
What a Lesson for LIFE ❤!!My Love and Prayers To You. Thank You for sharing this 🙏
"Big Dummy" What Redd called Lamont on Sanford & Son. LOL
He was always an intellectual…..
Lol, loved that big dummy part.
77 years old he aged fine like wine 🍷 very fine wine. Demond is very wise and on point and frank.
Girl!! Baby I love a Silver Fox. I don't know if it's cause I'm in my 40s or what but GOOD GOD. He fine as fuck.
Demond is definitely a very fine wine
Y'all keep on loving these silver fox as y'all ladies say y'all Gon end up with them dy1ng on top of y'all like the color purple 😂😂😂
@@user-oz1bg7er1z LOL! Sure you're right.
🤪🤣🤣@@user-oz1bg7er1z
Great interview! I grew up watching Sanford and Son and I loved Demond Wilson! He's so much more accomplished than I ever realized, great to see him looking so good! 😍😍😍
Mr. Grady Demond Wilson from one veteran to another "Thank You for Your Service".
Demond Wilson is a legend. That show would not have been so good without him. Glad he is alive and well.
I remember being an eight year old when the show came on ..we would never miss an episode and we literally held each other up we laughed so hard!!
Foxx was the star, Demond was just enjoying the ride while it lasted
@@dins5066 But now that Redd is gone he claims it was all 50/50,
His ego is clouding his memory, If he is a man of God he should find something kind to say about Mr.Foxx
both of them were the stars!
it was 50/50! what are you talking about! don't you remember when redd Foxx was holding out and Demond carried the show!
Demond Wilson needs to be heard more than a few CZcams or podcast programs. This guy speaks the the truth and his wisdom needs to be shared with the masses.
True but Hollywood probably scared what he might expose
All The Things He has done through Ministry alone.
Absolutely i said the same thing.
Demond does a great imitation of Red’s voice too. Love this man.
Too late; people’s greed and desire to be seen is in place.
👏🏽 The young man did a great job listening, learning, and being respectful. He was confident enough to allow Mr. Wilson to lead the interview and was skilled enough to ask some of the questions he wanted to ask - eventhough he knew SOME were superficial compared to the conversation.
This has to be sarcasm
Yeah, not so much.
No he wasn’t listening and he’s ignorant of who he was interviewing smh
He still refused at times to accept Demonds honest answers.
Demond, most eloquent and insightful explanation of all this mess! Loved growing up watching you!!
I love this interview! And I especially love the fact that he is full of vim and vigor. Nobody can run anything past him. He so intelligent. God bless this man. 77 years-old and still has all his faculties!
...and he's strapped up. lol.
Damond don't play. ha ha
I love Sanford and Son, still today my favorite show. I’m 53, my 9 year old son laughs so hard with me, and my 15 year old daughter know all the episodes. This is generational greatness. Thanks for the interview! Demond is a real OG❤️
I lived for Fred's confrontations with aunt ester ..classic
I'm 53 also, and I still watch it!
@@richardlawson6787😂 yes. Like when he said Ester looked like the part of the Polaroid that you tear off😅 You gotta be old to know that he was talking about the black carbon sheet!!
Great interview..need a part two..three 😊
I'm 55 and I miss the good ole days. Today, we are living in a nightmare so to speak. Sanford and Son, Goodtimes were my shows.
They needed someone who knew their history.i was 13 when Sandford and son came on.i know about every thing he's talking about.great brother.loved hearing this interview 😊❤
A reporter shld ALWAYS do research on the person you are abt to interview, so they wnt belittling you. Enjoyed the interview. I love to hear Demond speak.
Demond is a treasure! I love his words! What a great eloquent speaker. I was a child of the 70's, and all of us loved Sanford and Son.
In the TOP 10 interviews I have EVER seen ! Respect ALL the rare honesty from my man Demond Wilson ! 👍🏾
I remember Desmond Wilson on Praise The Lord. His testimony is amazing.
Demond Wilson- Thank you for making this video! Blessings!!!🙏😇💐💖🌹🇺🇲🤗❤️
That Redd Foxx impersonation was pretty good😂
Spot‼️‼️‼️
Bill Mumy from Lost in Space can impersonate (Dr Smith) Jonathan Harris very well
I like Mr. Wilson,straightforward and no nonsense 💯💪🏾
Old school at its best
I was watching old episodes of Sanford and Son this week. Still very funny. One of the best comedy shows ever produced on television.
To the interviewer i hope you didn't take anything personally because this is how OGs talk to younger people who they feel not prepared but will educate you at the same time its all love. Thanks for this awesome interview and I hope you learned from it.
Demond is like a tough teacher but fair. He is straight real and thats so dam refreshing.
He's an old skool NYer❤. Short, but sweet and no time for slacking or lacking👍.
Demond Wilson seems like that cool Grandfather that everyone enjoys talking too. Great interview!
Though I appreciate the interview, oops I mean the reprimand,that's not no grandfather i'd want to have Mr. Wilson was rude and he did not have to belittle the young man. Should he have been more prepared, yes but he was excited to meet him and was just trying to get some questions answered. All that extra was just rude. I liked hearing about the different experiences and I have much respect for any veteran, I just don't like how he speaks to people. I'm surprised being a man of God.
He may be listening but he is NOT HEARING Mr. Wilson!!!!!
So MUCH respect to you Mr. Demond Wilson Sir 🙏
PLEASE start a podcast with ALLLL of your knowledge,
I could HEAR YOU ALLLLLL Day 🎉🎉
Great interview! I enjoyed the candor and brilliance and assuredness of Demond Wilson. He was unapologetically honest.
Yes!
Absolutely no BS legend. Love this interview. Demond is straight OG 💪
@davidholland9505, Not really, when he claimed he was as big of a star as redd and it was 50/50 when we all were there, Redd was the star, and Demond was swinging off his shirt tails.
It is a great pleasure to see Demond again and he is looking very healthy and well.
This interview could have been smoother but it was very interesting.
Thank you young man you did a good job.
My FAVOURITE show as a teenager! Love This man, Demond Wilson!
Demond Wilson dropped a lot of knowledge. The agenda was in place and a foot already. Norman Lear and others made sure that they perpetuated the patriarchal destruction of the family structure with every show they created. Desmond Wilson saw it and avoided the land mines. Excellent interview. If they do their homework, they may be able to get another interview from him. He has so much to say and this was just a drop in the bucket. I really would love to see and hear more about him and his life experiences.
Well said 💯 However, the interviewer needs to polish up his skills and do his homework on people before he brings them on.
@TJ_911
What are you talking about?
The interviewer did a great job!!
The Five Percenters taught this in the 60'a...
@@TJ_911 Agree. The interviewer was unprepared.
Very interesting interview, He 's 77 dropping jewels.
Watching this reinforces why he was the perfect choice to portray Lamont. He tells it like it is regardless of how popular it may be.
I came in to make a similar comment...as a extra myself , and after working on a few sets for CBS, Fox, Paramount, Amazon, American horror story 😬,etc...not boasting nothing to boast about, I'm just not lying.
.I was able to see celebrities ,of course and almost hang around a few. 🤣 Even a few who were child stars before I was born 😂. I made friends with one as we signed up for the same jobs 🤭. I had seen most of his movies when I was a child and he was very similar to his characters, as a child "star" still fiesty, tell it like it is and all that.
Many of the ones I met, Are just like their character or something you'd heard about them... I'm not going to name any names... . Just goes to shows that they are people just like we are.
Real, raw and truthful. People are not use to that. We must willing to hear and learn. great interview on both sides
Yes Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏
Fascinating. He is the real deal. Hear him please. Thank you so much.
I've always been a big fan but after seeing this, I'm a bigger fan. Thank you Mr Wilson for many years of making us laugh .
Great one-sided interview. Demond breaking down his experiences from his perspective was pure education. Unfortunately, the interviewer didn't even seem to read dude's Wikipedia entry before he scheduled this interview & dropped the ball on numerous occasions. I learned long ago that the first part of conducting a good interview was to *listen* to what the other person was saying. Demond kept having to say "I just told you that" or "didn't you hear what I just said?". I'm positive that if he felt it was a two-sided conversation, that it would not have gone the way it did in terms of him being defensive. Either way, a lot could be gained from his insight in the business, so I am thankful you conducted this interview.
Exactly! Thank you for saying it. In the context of the conversation, the follow-up questions were nonsensical. I kept yelling "drop the script & just converse with this man".
I feel like he was trying to turn this into a Katt Williams interview and get the tea on some people. This generation...😑
Yessssssss…if it wasn’t for Demond I would have stop listening after 5 minutes.
Well I definitely see things the same way that you do I was going to say something along those lines but after reading your comments there's no reason to because you spoke the truth and you spoke it well and so I thank you for that.
@@KennethBraswell that part..
The wisdom and strength of this man is beyond reproach. What a legend ! 🙏
When the elders speak, I listen. Many blessings to him.
I knew Demond was in the ministry bc he visited my old church. He’s very direct. I’m glad the interviewer didn’t take offense and took the constructive criticism with ease. A good learning experience. The last part of the interview was powerful.
Thank you for your service, Mr. Wilson. 🇺🇸
This was golden!!! "I stayed strapped you get iggknit, you get busted". I live to here my OG elders speak with purpose. Yes sir Demond
Thank you Mr. Wilson for handling this interview so well. The interviewer kept trying to cross him up on unnecessary mess and Mr. Wilson corrected him every time. I look forward to more interviews from Mr. Wilson.
My heart has to go out to this young interviewer. His intentions are pure.
Same ❤
Yeah but way undereducated
Unprepared. D as in Dummy.
Same ❤
@@supersaxyguy
Yep, Wilson, trying to school him.
I’ve never heard Mr. Wilson in anything outside of All in the family and Sanford and Son. I am glad to still have this brother around to tell his story. Fantastic interview.
He also was in a show called, Baby, I'm Back
Look up him when he did the remake of the odd couple.with Ron glass from Barney miller
And the show called baby I'm back
Fantastic interview? Fantastic interviewee, yes. Interviewer, no. Interview, nuh uh
@@ronmexico1392 well that’s what I meant lol. Mr Wilson schooling him actually made the interview worth it to me. I’d rather hear the person tell their story over the person who didn’t do research trying to ask questions based on stuff they looked up on Google or Wikipedia
Demond does a spot on Sanford voice impression.
Katt went viral and this should go super viral
Wow, this man is so real, and i appreciate that he is so truthful about the "Hollywood" facade. Amen brother, thank you for boldness in sharing the Gospel
And he's teaching!
That Redd Foxx impression was everything! Great interview man
Interviewing skills 101: Know your subject; know when to shut up and listen; never interrupt the subject midstream when the subject is making point to ponder upon.
I wondered what happened to Mr Demond Wilson. So glad to see him and how honest, intelligent and the most important thing A close relationship with GOD.
Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤
Sanford and Son will go down as one of the GREATEST shows of all times. An absolute legendary classic. Thank you Demond and Redd for an absolute MASTERPIECE, that is STILL funny TODAY. No matter how many times I watch each episode, it’s as if I’m seeing it for the first time….funny as H$LL
😂😂😂
Yes😂
Yep, I was born in the 60's and raised in the 70's, and just a couple years back I got the thrill of my life getting my picture taken sitting in the actual Sanford and Son pickup truck, it's in the exact condition it was in when the show was filmed and the dash and visors are signed by all the surviving cast members including Demond and Nathaniel Taylor, the actor who played Lamont's shifty buddy Rollo and who coincidentally died the night before me and my buddy went to see the truck.
The place that has it deals in high end collector cars like you see on Barrett-Jackson, they bought it as a conversation piece and because like me they're the same age and grew up watching Sanford and Son in the 70's and when they found out the previous owner had put it up for sale couldn't resist getting it.
They have cast reunions at the place and were scheduled to have another one just two weeks later, the one owner invited me to come and told me he'd introduce me to Demond and everyone else which would have been an even bigger thrill but unfortunately after living in northeast Ohio for 11 years that was the weekend I was scheduled to move back to southwestern Pa where I'm originally from and just couldn't cancel all the arrangements I'd made, yea it sure would have been something getting my picture taken again in the truck with him in it to, wow what a missed opportunity.
If anyone's interested the trucks at a place in the Cleveland area called Blueline Classics in North Royalton OH, you can check it out on their website Bluelineclassics.com, they even sell real cool t-shirts that have the iconic Sanford and Son logo from the driver's side door of the truck on the front of them.
Yep, getting my picture taken sitting in that truck was the thrill of my life, and it's a picture I'm always shamelessly showing off to people.
@@dukecraig2402 Great story. Appreciate you sharing this. I know this was a very special and memorable experience. You’ve done what millions would want to do if they got the opportunity. Cool! Now, I’m gonna order one of those t-shirts from the website you shared. Thanks!!
Friday nights 😢on NBC will never be the same in New York. Sanford and Son and Chico and the Man afterwards. A light sleep and NBC Saturday morning line up with cereal. Thank goodness for reruns.
That’s because it was written by a black man
This interview shows why it's important to KNOW history. Youth think it's just cool to show up without knowledge. As Mr. Wilson says "Do your homework" before interviewing people and listen for answers when asking. We all learned something(s) from this interview.
Unfortunately Wilson is on the wrong side of history with his blatant bigotry and ignorance.
@@hunkallgood73 there used to be rumors of him being a closeted homosexual and I think it bothered him. Overcompensating
Yes! It was more of a teaching interview, wasn't it! I know I learned something from listening to him. Mr Wilson was way more than Lamont Sanford! 🥰
Lmbo Comedy Hype is most likely embarrassed that he is so unprepared and did not do his research properly, Oh well lesson learned lol. but overall it's a very good interview. I have learned a lot from Mr. Wilson's experience and I am so glad this interview is being shared to set the record straight about his life as a person and as an actor.

But this interviewer is 35 years old!! He's not old, but he's not a youth lol. Which makes his handling of this interview even more ridiculous.
How can you not come away with love and respect for Mr. Wilson. I think the interview was just too young to really be able to interview him. You need someone in their 50s who can relate to the early 70s with memory and understand the transition of times through Decades. I’m 58. I would’ve been a great interviewer for him
I agree! Gen X could have done a better interview cold, using general knowledge. The fact that the interviewer was so ill prepared makes me question his abilities as a "journalist".
Demond we thankyou for speaking some truth and wisdom to the masses may God bless you and your family well done 👍.
I enjoyed Mr Wilson's interview...he speaks with passion, intelligence and keeps it real. He's not a "go along to get along" type of guy. Very refreshing. A lot of younger people can learn from the wisdom and experience of the older generation.. Kudos
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏
My dad fought in VietNam and he described his homecoming, it was the exactly as Mr. Wilson described. My dad never looked at this country the same after that. His advice to us was..just do the best you can in this life and make sure you Think of yourself first.

They were called baby killers by the same groups of people that advocate abortion. Weird, huh?
Oh noo I am sorry your Father went through this horrible ordeal. I don't care what anyone says the Vietnam War should have NEVER happened, and Our USA Men should have NEVER been drafted. in that dreaded war.UGH
This was a very insightful interview. Thank you Mr. Demond Wilson for your time here to educate us that are ready and willing to listen and learn. Best words of wisdom EVER!
Sanford and Sons was one of my favorite shows. He is a legend in sit com. When I hear how African American men and women were treated in Hollywood, it blows my mind. Most of my favorite TV shows as a child were mostly African American comedies. sit coms. Good times, the Jeffersons. Thank you for sharing the interview.
I have always admired Demond Wilson and this interview makes me admire him even more. Thank you for your service sir.
Young man. Do your homework
"It's a poor rat that only has one hole". My grandmother used to say this all the time. God bless Mr.Wilson for telling his story. Lots of gems here. Rest in peace, Mr.Foxx.
I’m 68 years old. Remember how horribly Vietnam veterans were treated. I went to college with them. It broke my heart knowing them and hearing the horror they went through in Nam.
Mr. Wilson is so right about the feminist movement! Never was one, never wanted to be one. The movement is evil. It took away women’s femininity, not gave them rights. Took away men’s dignity, emasculated men. Still does. I appreciate a strong masculine man. I respect men. I let my husband be a man. He respects me as a woman. Feminism Broke up the family home. Think about it. There I finally said it! LOL. Now I feel better.
""THIS IS A SPIRITUAL BATTLE!""
