Original Note:
The video comes from a 1993 NYE special hosted by Howard Stern. In the sketch, Stern appears in blackface, parodying an infamous Friar’s Club roast where Ted Danson wore blackface while roasting his then-girlfriend, Whoopi Goldberg. Stern repeatedly uses the N-word. https://people.com/tv/howard-stern-addresses-past-use-of-blackface-n-word/
