A regular guest with US TV chat-show host David Letterman from 1984 to 1993, Hicks' material - which included no-holds-barred takedowns of everything from religion to politics - frequently troubled the TV censors, leading to one of his entire routines being banned from broadcast after it was recorded. Finally aired in its entirety 15 years following Hicks' death, the routine was the last appearance the then ailing comic would film for Letterman.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eCovering a decade's worth of guest spots, this collection features stand-up routines and candid interviews, and amounts to an essential chronicle of the work of one of the most vital voices the comedy world has ever produced.\u003cp\u003eDebut \u0026amp; November 15th, 1984\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApril 25th, 1991 with the 48 Hours Crew\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAugust 22nd, 1985\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarch 26th, 1992\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFebruary 13th, 1986\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOctober 27th, 1992\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeptember 12th, 1989\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarch 19th, 1993\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecember 26th, 1989\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCensored Interview\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJune 12th, 1990\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJanuary, 2009 - Bill's mother guests\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOctober 3rd, 1990\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOctober 1st, 1993\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeptember 4th, 1991\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntro to Show\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCBS - various clips\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePortions of un-aired Late Show\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55126698885505,"sku":"1800101","price":12.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51oCTp-7lBL._SL1500_fa4de775-192f-47b0-85bb-7c9e13e968a5.jpg?v=1766638457","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1800101-1","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
