The comedy segment is Floyd R. Turbo, American, discussing the air traffic controllers' threat to strike. However, Johnny can not keep a straight face, and ends the sketch abruptly. McLean Stevenson recalls how he botched his easy line the very first time he got in a Broadway play after seven months as an understudy, then absent-mindedly swore. He then talks about how his 1972 Porsche was hit four times in 35 days, once from each side. He comments on going to the bank to get his wife's name on his checks, and the teller telling him she wants to sing on "The Tonight Show". He then talks about the program he is on to cut down his smoking. He then announces that he and his wife Ginny, a former Tonight Show employee, are expecting a baby. Bob Uecker talks about the baseball players' strike, joking about how little he made as a player. He suggests paying players at all levels, starting with $10,000 in Little League, saying that fans will gradually not notice the high salaries of major leaguers. He also jokes about making public appearances to replace the income he is losing due to the strike. More seriously, he points out that the longer the strike goes on, the longer it will take for players to get in shape to return.
