"Here is my nighttime Emmy," he explained, referencing the fact that he waited over 40 years to receive the award despite a long history in television.
Interviewer Kit Hoover asked him if he keeps the award there all the time, and he jokingly responded, "No, usually if I'm not wearing baby wipes around my neck I'm wearing the Emmy." The "baby wipe" mention was a reference to his young grandchildren who frequent his home. "I am happy that I am living my dream.
