The Larry King Show: Special Ukraine Edition

After the break, we'll have Vladimir Putin on the phone, to tell us how he's dealing with Ukraine's invasion of his country.

Ashamed to say I never paid a lot of attention to Ukraine. I know Oksana Baiul won an Olympic gold medal for that country in figure skating. I'm learning now, though.

I was talking to Sandy Koufax and we were wondering why it's called "Ukraine" these days and not "The Ukraine"? Why was it even called "THE Ukraine" in the first place? I mean we don't call it THE Finland. What's the deal there?

Joining me now are fantastic stars of the screen — big & small — Zero Mostel and Paul Michael Glaser. Gentlemen, is it true you are doing a revival of “Fiddler on the Roof” because the storyline in Fiddler is about what happened after Russia invaded Ukraine back in the 1910s? Is there a part for Barbra Streisand? Is there a dream sequence for Liza?

Larry there is a wonderful number called "Best in the World" from Hollywood/Ukraine. Michael and I are working it into my new act. It's a story song you know. I always like them since they require more acting than singing. Mama could sing (guffaws) I interpret stories.

We have an exclusive interview with Bob Crane and his Hogans, who are today’s heroes in the ongoing crisis with Russia Limbaugh, the ex-wife of Rusty Limbaugh

Larry: Bob, did you get any film of Russia Limbaugh being attacked by the demonstrators who were trying to invade her territory?

Bob: Yes, Larry I have extensive, grainy footage of several men entering her backdoor while others attempted to invade her from the front.

Key-ev? Keev? Who can keep what to call it? In my day it was Key-ev like the chicken. That reminds me of the chicken I saw as its neck was being snapped for what turned out to be a delicious chicken key-ev or is it supposed to be chicken keev? Anyway it was a delicious chicken dish.

After the break we’ll have Lola Falana who appeared on Liberace: Valentine's Day Special. Liberace was a famous Ukrainian. Hold it. They’re telling me in my ear that he was actually a Pollock and not from the Ukraine. Is Jackson going to splatter on the studio floor again. Lola must know the Jackson family. We’ll ask after the break.

Key-v? Keev?

In my day, we always called it The Ukraine. When did it stop being special?

We have Paul McCartney and his Ukraine girls to serenade us next live in the studio. John Lemon will be the drummer.

Yes Larry I always did believe that Cheryl Crane shot Johnny but she took the secret to the grave so we'll never know.
