Known as the “Merchant of Venom” for his sharp, biting insults, Don Rickles blends humor with heartfelt stories as he recalls his rise from a struggling young performer to one of America’s most beloved entertainers. He shares anecdotes about his early days in nightclubs, his big breaks on television, and his long-standing friendships with Hollywood legends like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Johnny Carson, and Bob Newhart.
