Imagine legendary comedians stepping up to the microphone and giving us their best stand-up. All of Lenny Bruce’s routines, Nichols and May’s sketches, Henny Yongman’s one-liners, and Tom Lehrer’s songs in one place. (...) For the first season, Steve Martin takes the reigns and launches the program with memorable episodes featuring Mort Sahl, Victor Borge, and Bill Cosby among others.

Sounds great! But, huh, who is Henny Yongman?
