The latest stop on Bill Cosby’s trek through late night in promotion of his upcoming special Far From Finished was at The Daily Show. Here, Cosby takes Jon Stewart and the rest of us through the old days of comedy where people had to snap instead of clap and people like Lenny Bruce got taken away by the police if you swore on stage.

Watch parts one, two, and three now.
