Dave's Calls to Mom Collection on LNwDL, 1990-93

Of all the compilation videos I've put together in here, this has been the most endearing. The informed and patient innocence of Dorothy, the exasperated son, and an audience that loved every second.

The phone calls don't begin until mid-1990, but I included three clips that serve as sort of a prologue, where Dave just talks about his mom and then calls Phoebe Cates for some Mom advice. Throughout the collection I also include some pre-call chatter because there'd frequently be callbacks to that chatter and, I thought, they're pretty entertaining on their own.
