Howie Mandel is the A-list guest celebrating 1000 episodes of TIJ this week! The stand-up comic, “Deal or No Deal” host, AI proponent, and judge of “America’s Got Talent” shares some pretty incredible stories from his days guesting on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. He made 22 appearances with Johnny and details his first-ever spot to the last stint that resulted in his ban from the popular late-night talk show. Howie discusses the role that both Joan Rivers and The Comedy Store’s Mitzi Shore played in his career, why he left the country when “Deal or No Deal” premiered on NBC, and what he hopes artificial intelligence will do for his legacy after he’s gone. **This was recorded pre-WGA / SAG-Aftra strike
