I brought out the next guest, Pete Hamill, whose column ran in The New York Post. Rodale moved "down one" to the couch. As Pete and I began to chat, Mr. Rodale suddenly made a snoring sound, which got a laugh. Comics would sometimes do that for a laugh while another comic was talking, pretending boredom. His head tilted to the side as Pete, in close-up as it happened, whispered audibly, "This looks bad." The audience laughed at that. I didn't, because I knew Rodale was dead. To this day, I don't know how I knew. I thought, "Good God, I'm in charge here. What do I do?" Next thing I knew I was holding his wrist, thinking, I don't know anything about what a wrist is supposed to feel like.
