LOVE JOHNNY CARSON One Obsessive Fan's Journey to Find the Genius Behind the Legend

Mark Malkoff enthusiastically delivers decades of research and candid stories about his idol--late-night television host and comedian Johnny Carson. Malkoff's behind-the-scenes look at the hard work and dedication of this cultural icon is thorough and engaging. Over the course of his tenure as host of "The Tonight Show" (1962-1992), Carson interviewed more than 25,000 guests and completed approximately 4,500 episodes. For anyone who stayed up late to watch the antics of Carson and his thousands of guests, this production is a treat. One gets a true sense of Malkoff's love for the TV legend and, on a greater scale, the entire entertainment world. M.L.B. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2025]
