Washington is the ceo and cofounder of Business Strategy from jti and a former daimler executive. And jamie butters, as well as lawrence ulrich, the former auto critic for the new york times. Gentlemen, welcome. I have been looking at the vw scandal and wondering, if it does not very quickly become the biggest auto scandal of all time. But it is easy to feel that way today. Lets put it into perspective. Lets rate the vws scandal on alets rate the vws scandal on the timeline of scandals over time. We have a lot to choose from. In the last five years, we have got g. M. , takata, toyota. Lawrence, lets start with you. Lawrence it is hard to get perspective at the moment. It is such a hot issue. I would put it somewhere in the low top 10. We are talking previous scandals from ford pinto to toyota, injuries and fatalities, and no one has died here. Perhaps a little lung congestion, and that is not a good thing. But right, its a bad scandal. It is corrupt. And unseemlyness is driving it home for a company, a studious company, you picture of volkswagen, an intelligent German Company with the following of educated car nerds. It is like a frat boy move, cheating on the test is the last thing you wouldve expected from volkswagen. Erik jeffrey, nobody has died and nobody will die as a result of this scandal, at least not directly because volkswagen cheated on its emissions test. At the same time, we are talking about tens of billions of dollars in potential penalties. We are talking currently about 11 million cars, but that is 11 million cars at volkswagen only. We have no idea which other carmakers may ultimately become embroiled. Jeffrey thats right. We can already see from the movement of stock prices of other automotive makers that there is some concern. Until investigations, internal investigations are conducted in those other automotive manufacturers come to the conclusion they are doing things correctly, that uncertainty will hover over the automotive industry. I would agree that i would rank this somewhere in the middle of the top 10. But the fact that you have leading engineers from germany with a reputation of quality, and algorithm to circumvent regulations, is somewhat unique. And i think it is going to be met with a very large sledgehammer once the regulators get into this. Erik jamie, go ahead. Jamie you are right. It is less violent than an unintended acceleration incident that causes the car to accelerate and get into a crash. More than a hundred people were killed by the g. M. Faulty a ignition switch. That g. M. Acknowledges. More than 100 fatalities, violent fatalities. But it was a deliberateness of this and the many months of obfuscation. After the scientists found them and the regulators at the air Resources Board started asking them, why are your cars dirtier in the road . And it was only after months it was not until the 10th meeting with arb that they finally admitted they ran out of excuses and had to admit that they had put in this defeat device, that they had cheated on a test. It is that deliberateness and unwillingness to admit error that is going to cause trouble. The regulators are not going to take this lightly. Erik i want to get to that notion, the deliberateness. Before i do, jeffrey goahead. Jeffrey i would add to that. We have other examples where Companies Put up smoke, did not respond transparently to the initial inquiries. They paid dearly when it came time to issue fines and other civil and criminal penalties. So, the fact that vw was dragging their feet over the last several months is definitely going to come back to haunt them. Erik the word i have heard used several times over the past couple of days which rings loudly in my head is conspiracy. Jamie got to it with his point about it being deliberate. Unlike other conspiracies, say at ford over the transmission in the 1980s and most recently g. M. And takata and perhaps toyota, this was a conspiracy to deceive from the beginning. In those cases, it was just a coverup. Jamie this is not the first time people have played fast and loose with emissions results. Cadillac did it a long time ago, walked away with a slap. Back in the 1990s. A very detroit solution. When the car with sense that it was being tested, it would put a sensor on the hood. When the hood was open to be tested, it was an early defeat device. In a way a very elegant solution. How will we set this car up . They walked away with nothing. It hardly even created a blink in the media. I think there is a new climate out there now. As jeffrey noted, the massive scale of this if we are talking 11 million cars and drag in the point that this is Diesel Technology that is trying to vye for legitimacy in the age of job waning pretroleum. New wrinkles here that were not there 20 or 30 years ago. Erik what is that going to mean . Jeffrey, given your experience, will while u. S. Regulators and prosecutors in this country and in germany we know they are beginning a criminal probe deal with volkswagen in a different way, or are they going to look back on previous cases like General Motors or toyota or as you pointed out cadillac and say, the punishment needs to fit the crime . Jeffrey i think the doj is going to take a pretty hard stand here again, because of the intentional nature of what was done. So, a large impact will come from how vw reacts literally in the next days. If they continue to put up smoke, continue to put up denials, then the doj will become more and more aggressive here so we have to watch and see what happens in the coming days. Theyre very active now. The german prosecutors are also active. What we do not know is whether or not, with her without this device, the regulations in europe would have been circumvented. They do have a different type of diesel fuel which is cleaner than the diesel fuel used here. The use of diesels in the Passenger Car industry is much more widespread in europe than it is here. They do have a higher standard fuel. Even with this defeat device, they would have met their local quality standards because of the better fuel. We will have to see what happens in the coming days. Erik i know you and our fellow colleagues have bloomberg have been working very hard doing what we do, which is adding up the numbers. Do we have any idea at this point how much this whole affair is going to cost volkswagen . Jamie wow. That is a big number. And i dont know. They lost, we had an intern actually trying to play with some numbers the other day, and there is so much we do not know. But we are talking about 20 billion in lost market cap, which is not the companys money. But it is a useful measure of the might and what resources they can come up with. Youre going to have fines. They have set aside 7 billion, but who knows if that is going to be enough . There was some talk, well, they couldve added the technology for 3000 per car. 11 million cars so that is 44 billion. That is a lot of money, even for volkswagen, which has been extremely profitable. But were talking about an awful lot of money. G. M. Just got their fine for 900 million. It was smaller than toyotas, even though there were many more deaths involved. G. M. Was seen as being more cooperative. This could hurt volkswagen with u. S. Regulators. The other thing to keep in mind is that was the national highway Traffic Safety administrator. They have some powers are pretty limited. Their fineability is smaller. The Clean Air Act is people have gone to jail for that. There is very, much higher likelihood of nonmonetary jail time kind of punishments here. Erik i wonder to myself, lawrence, whether this might for volkswagen become like the bp disaster in the gulf was for that company. That the numbers involved get so high so quickly and the liability seems so bottomless that the company has no choice but to shrink and sell off assets to prepare itself for the storm to come. Lawrence well, volkswagen must be hoping that they can somehow limit the damage to the United States and not have this bleed off to become a giant international issue. In they have one thing going for them. They do not do that much business in the United States. They have a 20year record of floundering here. I speak as a loyal volkswagen guy. I could not afford bmws. I drove gtis. Few companies have such fiercely loyal buyers. But other than that gtis and the golf, their lineup is a mess. They do not have the suvs. They have not been able to crack the code since the glory days of the original beetle. For the last 10 years, Companies Like hyundia and kia have been eating their lunch is. They sell three times as many cars in the United States is volkswagen. So, if there is something they have got, theyre a niche brand, and this is a Niche Products within a niche brand. If they can somehow make their customers happy and somehow rebuild their loyalty, volkswagen owners are willing to take a lot. If they feel they are still driving a good car and a car that is fun to drive. Lets not forget. This could be possibly fixed with software. Erik jamie, could you see volkswagen, given their record of failure, pulling a peugeot and saying to heck with the United States . Jamie they would have to give up their global ambitions. It was winterkorns target the idea that has driven their strategy is to be the worlds most biggest and most profitable. There is no way they can do that if they skip the u. S. , which is the number two market by vehicle sales but number one in terms of dollars. The vehicles here are so much more expensive. They have more technology in them then many of the cars sold in china. So, this is really where most everybody makes their money. Volkswagen is not going to want to pull out of the United States. Disasters. Lets not forget their golden goose brands. Audi, lamborghini, bentley. There is associated fallout there. I cant imagine them considering it at this point. Jeffrey i was going to say the same thing. I think they see the vw brand as completing the broad palette they want to offer into this market. Despite this disaster, i do not see them pulling out of here. Erik heres a question for you. Even if they do manage to fix this problem with the Software Patch and it only costs drivers a couple of Miles Per Hour gallon on the highway, could it leave a more lasting impression on the mind of the auto buyer and maybe even spell the end of diesel . I would come back to the earlier remark. I think they need to move quickly. If you can fix this with the software adjustment, they need to get this issue done and dusted in out of the press as quickly as possible. And then deal directly with a disappointed customer base. The longer this is in the press, the longer it drags on, the more dangerous it is going to be to recover that brand equity they have lost it. I agree. If im a crisis manager, volkswagen need something dramatic. This is in some ways a very insular, traditional German Company with an arrogance. That relationship with america has always been difficult. In a way, they dont speak the language of this market. I hope they are getting good advice to not be evasive. To not be defensive. To come out with Something Big that is going to weve seen companies in crises that looked worse than this and end up getting good well if they face it honestly and transparently. Erik before we go back to you, lets have jeffrey make that point. Our viewers might not know that you have been consultant to multinationals, including some large German Companies on ethics and compliance, the very issues that volkswagen is going to have to confront. One would hope is confronting right now. Jeffrey yes, this is not uncommon. When you see a Company Getting into hot water of this scale, and a company especially like vw thats known for a topdown hierarchical management structure, it makes it difficult for employees further down in the chain to raise concerns for fear of retaliation. At the end of the day, what we have inside is an absolutely need for culture change. That does not happen overnight. It is going to take a long time to address that issue inside of vw. But i think bringing in mueller is a good first step. To bring in culture from porsche that has been on the sidelines. The way German Companies are structured where you have a Supervisory Board comprised of 10 members representing workers and 10 members representing management, on that management side you have two px and two porsches. I think you will see them asserting more on the direction of the company. Erik jamie, can we raise another question about matthias mueller. Why promote from within when it seems like the whole culture is so tainted by the width of the scandal . They have got to believe it is only a whiff. The air will blow clean. And it will all go away. They have promoted very much from within. They do have who came from bmw. Bmw had a scare today where there was a report saying they had a diesel car that tested worse on the road. That has since been retracted in and the shares have rebounded. But its just, its who they have. It could be very challenging for them to bring in a transplant executive. And with mueller, i think what jeffrey is saying, you sort of have the best of both worlds. Someone inside but coming from an independent unit within volkswagen. Honestly, one that has been willing to break with their traditions. They added sportutility vehicles and smaller sportutility vehicles. And its been very lucrative for them. So maybe there is something to be learned there. Im not saying we will see a vw pick up any time soon, but they might be willing to do things a little differently while still preserving what has been a very Successful Company in these last several years. If theres one lesson that volkswagen needs is how to sell a popular suv. Of all things that porsche would be able to teach them that lesson. Porsches suvs resuscitated that company. Volkswagen needs to take that to heart. Americans, they love their crossover suvs. That is the biggest blind spot in the volkswagen lineup. That is what they need to compete with or without diesel. Erik i will wrap up our conversation with this last question are we going to look back on this volkswagen scandal and say it was the greatest thing that ever happened to tesla . Its hard to tell. It is a shame from a technical standpoint, from an enthusiast standpoint diesel continues to have promise. For as long as petroleum lasts. Look at europe, 50 of new cars are diesel. They are green in europe. The technology has been proven that it can meet modern emissions standards. That is the biggest shame. You have a Promising Technology very likely is a bridge technology, but we certainly not ready to take the worlds cars off oil and all drive 1,000 teslas. This is a black eye for technology that seem to show a lot of promise. That lack of trust bodes poorly in the United States. Lawrence said the keyword which is oil. 200 oil is the best thing that can happen to tesla. Jeffrey i would say the biggest beneficiary is not tesla. It is probably consumer advocacy groups who are now going to turn up the pressure to make sure that the regulars are doing everything he possibly can to regulate and not just trust. Trust but verify. Erik ralph nader redux. Gentlemen, thank you very much. We had jamie butters, the auto editor here with me a bloomberg. Lawrence ulrich, thank you very much. Lawrence the drive. Com. Erik we will be right back. Stay with us. Charlie Carol Burnett is here. Her comedy has inspired generations of comedians for 60 years where she has received many awards including six emmys, a Kennedy Center honor, the mark twain prize and the president ial medal of freedom. She will receive a Lifetime Achievement award from the Screen Actors Guild next year. The Carol Burnett show the lost episodes is a new dvd box set. Here is a look at some classic moments. That absolutely did it i am leaving this house and i am not coming back until the end of the football season [football playing loudly on tv] in case you missed it, here is the instant replay. I am leaving this house and im not coming back until the end of the football season [laughter and applause] i wonder how grandfather is doing. Gramps, how are you feeling . Just as i thought. Hello, canoga falls, General Hospital . Dr. Hoffer. Please. Yes, ill hold on. Hello, dr. Hoffer. Can you come over . Gramps is really sick this time. I think it is serious. Oh, just in case, would you pick up my black dress at the cleaners. Thank you. Byebye. [doorbell rings] at last. Thank you. [organ plays] oh. [laughter] charlie so, there we are. These lost episodes. Why were they lost . Carol the first five years, we were going to go into syndication and we could not use the first five years. There were some kind of legal stuff going on. So we released the last six years. Now it is all been cleared up, so here they are. Charlie you have them in a dvd box. Carol these have not been seen since they were first aired. They have never been syndicated or on youtube. Charlie why do people love them so much . Carol funny is funny. I dare anyone to look at the dentist sketch today that is over 40 years old with harvey and tim and not laugh. What we had were belly laughs. Thats what we aimed for. It holds up. Charlie it does. Most of them, there is no political stuff so it is not dated. Carol right, exactly. In a way, we kind of did that on purpose. Never that we ever thought we were going to syndication because variety shows did not. But i just felt thats for the smothers brothers, which did it beautifully and other shows. Im a clown. I was a clown on the gary moore show. I dont know. I just like the whole idea of a belly laugh. Charlie how did you come to create the Carol Burnett show . Carol well, i got my training on the gary moore show. Doing sketches and different characters with what i absolutely loved doing. And i had signed a 10year contract with cbs as i was leaving the gary moore show. There was a caveat in the first five years that some brilliant lawyer or my agent or somebody came up with that was, said, if within the first five years of the 10year contract, if i wanted to push that button, they would have to put us on the air one hour, 30 pay or play righty shows. 30 one hour. Charlie explain to people what pay or play carol if they did not pick us up on that country, they would have to pay us for 30 varieties on the air or not. They took the chance to put us on. They did not want me to they had forgotten, because i did not think i wanted to do it. To host a variety show, i never thought i would. The five years was almost up. There was one week to go. And my husband and i had just put a down payment on a house in california. I was not quite as in demand as i had been five years earlier, and so we looked at each other. We had two children. And we said, you know, maybe we ought to push that button. And so, it was christmas, the week between christmas and new years, and i called cbs in new york and got one of the Vice President s on the phone. Hi, carol. Merry christmas. Thank you. Im calling to push that button. What . What are you talking about . It was over five years. I said, you know, where i get to do a variety show, 30 variety shows . He said, let me get back to. I said this before, i am sure they got a lot of lawyers out at Christmas Parties that week. He called back the next day and he said, i see that, carol, but you know, variety is a mans game. Its sid caesar, milton berle, jackie gleason. Now dean martin. It is not for you gals. And i said, then he said, we have got this great sitcom we would love you to do called heres agnes. God, can you picture that . Anyway i said, no, i dont want to be the same person week after week. I want to be different characters. I want a rep company like sid caesar had. I want music, i want that stars, i want costumes and dancing a true, comedy musical review a week. They had to put us on the air. Charlie was it a hit from day one . Carol it was successful. They put us on monday night opposite i spy and big valley, which were major shows charlie nbc. Carol nbc and abc. Was big valley. So, we did well, and we started to pick up an audience and so forth. We got renewed for a second season. Then a third. They got the idea they would move us to wednesday night to 8 00 or Something Like that, and i did not care for that because i always thought we were at 10 00 show. When they put us opposite adam 12, which was a cop show. It was not our thing. We do not do well in that timeslot. Then, mr. Paley moved us to the wonderful saturday night lineup, where it was all in the family, mash, Mary Tyler Moore where everybody thrived. Charlie 30 minutes just gone. Carol mash was an hour. Charlie why did you pick tim and vicki and harvey . Carol i was smart. We were putting together a rep company and we had seen Harvey Corman on the danny kaye show. Dannys second banana. He is like carl reiner was and art carney. Gleason on sid caesar. Dannys show was going off the air. We kept saying we need Harvey Corman. Finally, duh. Why dont we get the harvey korman. I practically attacked him in the parking lot one afternoon. I think we had called his agent. I jumped at him charlie he said . Carol yes. Charlie why comedy for you . Were you always funny . Carol i dont know. I had a sense of humor. But i never really explored it in school or anything. In fact, i was pretty much a nerd, a good student. I wanted to be a journalist. And i wanted to write. So, when i got to ucla, i wanted to major in journalism, but there was no school of journalism. I could take a course, and join the daily bruin. I looked in the catalog and it said theater artsenglish, where i could take playwriting courses and still join the school newspaper. But i didnt realize that when you majored in theater artsenglish, you, as a freshman, you had to take acting, lighting, you had to take sound, costumes. So i had to take an acting course. I was terrified. I did a scene. And with a fellow student. And they laughed where they were supposed to. Charlie so you knew you could make people laugh. Carol it was a great feeling. Then some of the kids from, seniors came up to me and said, you were funny. You want to have lunch with us . All of a sudden, i was popular. Charlie take a look at this. This is a sketch featuring carol being visited in herself by a priest played by tim conway. Oh, father, im so glad you have come. I have needed you. There, there, my child. The time is growing short. We only have a few more minutes. I would like to give you some words of comfort. Thank you, father, but i am not afraid to, to fry in the electric chair . Thank you for those words of comfort. Are you sure there is not something you would like to tell me, like why you committed this terrible crime . No, father. It is my secret and i will carry it with me to the to your grave . Well, you can tell it, my child. I have heard confessions of all kinds. But father mine is sick and sordid and depraved. Well, they are the best kind. Charlie writing, writing, writing. Carol that was a takeoff on madam x. We used to do longform stuff. That particular sketch. This madam x. Double indemnity. We did postman always rings twice. They would run 12 or 13 minutes. Today, everything is one minute or two minutes long. Are people going to sit and watch anything that length of time . Charlie arent they trying to bring back a variety show. There is someone doing a variety carol neil patrick harris. It is all going to be in the writing because he has got it. There are several people who can do variety. But it depends. They could not do what we did because of the cost. We had 12 dancers. We had a rep company. We had two guest stars. We had a 28 piece orchestra. That cannot be done today. Charlie this is you last night on the late show with stephen colbert. Take a look at this. A great bit with stephen in the late show. Here it is. Stephen the redhead in the third row. Carol i would like to know why youre doing this bit. Stephen Carol Burnett. Carol, wow [applause] holy cow. Incredible. Thats amazing. Thats amazing. Thank you. Carol, thank you for being here. What is your question . Carol it is just that i want to know where you get off doing this bit, because it is my bit. [laughter] stephen i dont understand. Carol for 11 years i used to take questions, i would take questions with the audience. So, really, its mine. I own this. [laughter] stephen im a huge fan. I never miss your show. But you do not own the idea of answering questions. Carol that is true technically but i have a patent on it. And i quote for responding to the audience inquiries on a televised comedy variety broadcast. Stephen fine, then get up here and show me how it is done. That young lady right there. Can you do your tarzan yell . Stephen i would be happy to. Carol excuse me, but that is my tarzan yell. Stephen your tarzan yell . I bet that is news to tarzan. Carol are you ready . Ahhhhahhhh [cheering] charlie there is tarzan. You know, you have got the timing. Timing is everything in comedy. Carol yes, it is. But it is also writing. And we had wonderful writers. Charlie it is great to see you. Carol thank you. Charlie the Carol Burnett show now available for Time Available through time life websites. Carol thanks, charlie. Charlie back in a moment. Stay with us. eeeeohmumohweh hush my darling. dont fear my darling. the lion sleeps tonight. hush my darling. man snoring dont fear my darling. the lion sleeps tonight. woman snoring take the roar out of snore. Yet another innovation only at a sleep number store. Charlie yogi berra at hall of fame baseball player died on tuesday. He was 90 years old. Berra competed in 14 world series as a player and was on the winning side 10 times. He was the American League m. V. P. 3 times. He was also a winning manager. He led the yankees to an American League pennant in 1964 and the new york mets to a National League title in 1973. In his personal life, he became a popular figure for his homespun philosophies. He penned yogisms. When you come to a fork in the road, take it. It aint over till its over. Yogi berra appeared on this Program Three times. Here is a look at those conversations. Yogi my kids will say, dad, you said another one. I dont even know i say them. I really dont. I dont know i say them. I could go to parties and people say, let me hear you say one of your funny things. I do not know i say them. It just comes out. You tell me what time it is and i will say now. Nobody goes there, it is too crowded. Charlie what is your favorite . Yogi it aint over till its over. When you come to the fork in the road, take it. You cant hit and think at that the same time. Charlie what are some of the others . Yogi oh, charlie. I would still be asleep if you did not wake me. [laughter] charlie nobody goes to that restaurant anymore because it is too crowded. I want to take a look at some highlights. Terrific stuff. All of us love baseball and love highlights. Take a look at this and included in this is the perfect game. His highly touted catcher yogi berra behind the plate for catching duties. Berra will be making his eight start. Berra is a feared long ball hitter. And because of his ability to drive bad pitches out of the park, he is hard to pitch the ball to. Goes up. Strike three. Now he opens the door to the hall of fame. Up and back. Yogis chasing it. He almost flips. Yogi made that one look tough, but came up with it. He usually does. [cheering] yogi berra helped sew it up with a booming drive into the rightfield stands. Yogi has been chosen most valuable player three times. And power like this is one of the reasons why. Yogi berra gives the yankees some hope with a slashing double to rightcenter. But ties on second. [indiscernible shouting] tagging. You cant kick me out you know you did. You expecting them to fly. [indiscernible] whered he touch me . Where did he touch me . Right here on the [bleep] charlie did you like managing . Yogi yeah, i really did. I liked coaching, too. Charlie ted williams once said the hardest thing in sports to do is to hit a baseball. Yogi he said he could see i dont know. Different ways of hitting. I could not stand up and hold my bat. I had to swing my bat. I had to time the pitchers. Charlie you time to the pitchers. Yogi when he goes up with his arm, i follow him. Charlie how much of hitting a baseball is in the wrist. Yogi it should be all wrist. Charlie if the ball is coming fast enough. Yogi the harder the guys throw you see a lot of guys striking out today. They use light bats. 32 ounce, 34 inches. They all want to hit home runs today. Charlie what is your greatest moment in baseball . Yogi being a yankee. I think it was great. I was very fortunate. Played 17 years, 14 world series. Charlie the championship. Yogi its got to be. Hall of fame. Charlie was it one game . The don larson perfect game . Yogi well, that then. I think hall of fame is most precious. Charlie being a member . Yogi then being voted most valuable player three times. Charlie who did you take with you . Yogi lefty gomez. Charlie colfax hard to hit . Yogi hard to bat against when you had control. And when you did not have control. When i was coach with the mets, the guy said, you are lucky to not have to bat against him. Charlie your best game . As a player . Yogi boy. I dont know. I had quite a few. Charlie but catching had to be don larson . Yogi catching, the best game, yeah. Charlie by far. What were you thinking through that game . As you got to the seventh and the eighthinning . Yogi eight inning, ninthinning. A lot of people asked me what about the last out . I said, im glad its over. Charlie you ran out and jumped in your arms. How tall are you, 56 . 57 and a half. Larson is a big guy. You were grabbing. The sheer joy of having a perfect game in a world series. Yogi during the world series. Charlie did you sense he had Something Special early in the game . Yogi no. Got to the seventh inning, then you start thinking a little bit. A few guys went to the seventh inning and then pow. Charlie if you were coming up today, playing the same way you did, would you make it . Would you have the same success . Yogi yeah, i think i would. Charlie all right. I think so, too. You could swing it with these guys. Yogi i will take a chance. When billy martin became manager in 1976, he hired yogi as a bench coach. Our Coaching Staff was martin, yogi, elson howard, dick howser. They assembled a great coach, but in the locker room at Yankee Stadium, he lockered one locker over for me. I was sitting next to him almost every day. Things started slowly for me. I was supposed to be a reliever. I got stuck in the starting rotation. Once you start to learn a few things, you know you have an allstar catcher here, one of the greatest catchers. Let me ask this guy a question. You start asking and learning. And ill tell the story all the time. The season that i had in 1978, by far the greatest i ever had. I was about 12 into it one time, and turned over to him and said, i got a question. He turned around to him and said you are 120. Enough is enough. Charlie it is like saying if it aint broke, dont fix it. That is more or less where it always started. And years passed, but we remained friends all the time. Charlie tell me about the firing by George Steinbrenner. He fired you. But he did not fire you personally. Yogi no. I wouldnt mind it. If he wouldve told me himself. Usually when you get fired, he is the one that tells you are fired. Charlie it was early in the season. Yogi six games. Charlie six or seven games . He fires you and he does not tell you yourself. Yogi he would not tell me. So i went back on the bus with the team. And ill get another job some other place. Charlie did you say to yourself and other people, i will never set foot in Yankee Stadium again . Yogi yeah, i said that. Ill never go back to Yankee Stadium again. It took me 14 years. Charlie you did not go back until . Yogi he called me up in he came to the museum and apologized and everything. Then the kids were saying that everybody wanted to see me at Yankee Stadium. They are the ones that made me go back, tell you the truth. Charlie your kids. Yogi we went back and became good friends. Charlie roll tape. This an interview i did with George Steinbrenner. Here it is. There might never have been a reconciliation with yogi berra if it werent for yankee icon joe dimaggio. I became close to joe d in his final years. More than watching mentioned, you have got to get him back. He should be here. He was yankee from start to finish. Charlie two months before joe dimaggio died, steinbrenner told yogi he was sorry. It was a mistake. It was my mistake, and i apologized to him. Yogi it was great the way he did it. There was a little tear. He said i did the wrong thing. I know it. I made a mistake. Charlie this spring, George Steinbrenner invited yogi back to Yankee Stadium to throw out the first pitch on opening day. It is things like this that are making people say the toughest boss in baseball has mellowed. Yogi he mellowed. [laughter] charlie but this is a great story because when he got you back with the yankees, and its created this it gave life to this friendship that is so rich in everything. Yogi John Mcmillan said, the houston astros, he asked me to come down to spring training with houston. I said, john, were friends. Lets stay that way. Thats when i went to the mets. George was over there. Charlie you liked casey. Yogi very much so. I could tell a lot of stories about him. Whitey ford was pitching. Threw four pitches and four guys got on base. Got nobody out. Casey come out to me and said, does he have anything . I said, i dont know. I have not caught one yet. [laughter] i know the story. Yogi it was a lot of fun.
