1983 Johnny Carson performance


Albert Brooks came on the Johnny Carson show (one of many times) in 1983 and did a skit with a Speak N Spell as though it was a ventriloquist's dummy. Does anyone know if this sketch is in any of the Johnny Carson collections or anywhere else? I was hoping to get it for my parents for a birthday, and I just cannot find it.

Was this the one when he ate a raw potato and other stuff on it which had such a *sharp* taste, it allowed him to imitate Curly's "whoop whoop"?

Both the Speak N Spell and "whoop whoop" appearances are included in my Carson collection, which is fairly old. I'd assume any new collections would have them as well....
