And there are onion rings involved.
Did anyone here listen to Dr. Ruth in her heyday? I think she was before my time, but she sounds lovely.
I remember catching her show a couple of times in high school, but she was absolutely an icon we all made jokes about. Her bluntness was very refreshing compared to the messaging in the '90s shoved down teens' throats.
Ah man, it wasn't a show you actually made time for but found every once in a while and they were amazing. She was a fantastic speaker and got right to the point, no shame, no jokes (a little laughing here and there but never mean spirited.)
She was also great doing the talk show circuit, always a good watch.
RIP Dr. Ruth....go bang some angels
