- Robert Blake (Baretta (1975)); Marsha Mason (play "The Heiress"); Burt Mustin (Phyllis (1975)); Olympic runner Marty Liquori is interviewed and takes an EKG stress test with Johnny.
- The comedy segment is rejected pilots for the next TV season. Robert Blake first discusses his experience being a guest host, mixing in a discussion of when he was in therapy. He then tells the story of his motorbiking accident, which has led him to no longer go biking on roads. The talk turns to dreams - a topic Johnny returns to with the later guests - and he talks about his dreams about flying over a crowd, and the exhileration of barely averting disaster; Blake comments on how that's what appeals to Johnny about hosting a nightly show. Blake also talks about his fondness for boxing and dance, since they involve movement. Actor Burt Mustin, almost 92 years old, tells a story about his grandnephew selling subscriptions. Mustin recalls selling newspapers and autos in his youth, and also talks about how women dressed and behaved when he was young. Marsha Mason first discusses her work in the play "The Heiress". Johnny then gets very philosophical, discussing whether men can understand what it is like to be a woman, and vice versa, or if anyone can understand any other person's experience. Mason says she does wonder what it is like to be very athletic, but says she has fewer fantasies now that she is happier in her life. She mentions that she and Neil Simon were married after only three weeks. Marty Liquori is a champion middle-distance runner and past Olympic athlete. He says he has few dreams, but as a child dreamed of being unable to run away from danger. Now he trains 15-18 miles per day. Then Johnny and Marty do a demonstration where both run on treadmills in running shorts while their heart rates are monitored. Liquori, as a trained athlete, has a heart rate about 30% lower at any given speed.—lenab9011
