Johnny Carson's producers SCREAMED at him to stop —what he did for dying woman forced NBC to re-edit
Johnny Carson's producers were screaming in his earpiece to keep the show moving, but Johnny ignored them. He walked off the stage, took a dying woman's hand, and did something that would force NBC to re-edit the entire episode and save one woman's soul. It was March 17th, 1983, and the Tonight Show was taping at Studio 6B in Burbank.
The audience was in high spirits. St. Patrick's Day energy filled the room and Johnny had just finished a hilarious monologue about green beer. Doc Severson and the band were setting up for the next segment and Johnny was settling in to interview his first guest, actress Sally Field, but something was about to derail the carefully planned show.
Barbara Martinez sat in the fourth row wearing a green dress that hung loose on her thin frame. She was 42, though aggressive ovarian cancer made her look 60. Her husband, Miguel, sat beside her, gripping her hand. On her other side sat their daughter, ...

He showed up on a Tuesday morning—maybe 48 years old, weeks of stubble, hair matted and hanging past his shoulders. He looked like he’d been living out of his car.
"How much to make me look like someone worth hiring?" he asked.
I saw his hands trembling. I saw the crushing shame in the way he avoided my gaze. "Sit down," I told him. I didn't mention the price....
Iran is now home to the world’s fastest-growing Christian movement, with the number of believers rising from just 500 in 1979 to over one million today. Much of this growth comes from widespread disillusionment with the country’s theocratic rule. Despite the risks of imprisonment and severe persecution, Iranians continue to share their faith through smuggled Bibles and digital platforms, often connecting secretly and privately to avoid detection.
Interestingly, the lack of formal church buildings has helped the movement expand more rapidly, relying on personal, face-to-face networks rather than traditional congregations. This underground growth is now spilling over into neighboring countries like Afghanistan and Tajikistan, signaling a remarkable regional shift in religious practice and community.
