Throwback Thursday Comedy Special: Red Buttons Standup at Chabad Telethon
Red Buttons, the comedian who became known at celebrity roasts for his "never got a dinner" speech, appeared on a Chabad telethon in 2009.
He had the audience laughing when he performed a variation on the speech, listing famous Jews since the beginning of time who never did a show for Chabad.
At the Telethon, he was introduced by Jan Murray, whom we profiled yesterday as one of the great Jewish Comedians.
Enjoy!
