Ever since the death of legendary comedian Don Rickles, we've learned so much about his life from the people who idolized him. Mostly in the form of late night talk show segments. In this heartwarming, nearly 13-minute clip, Bob Saget and John Stamos share a multitude of their stories about the late comedian.

“His way of roasting was like nobody else’s. It was not done mean spirited,” Saget says. “He did it out of love. But then when he was mean to you, it was like a privilege. It was like a gift.”

It's a great clip with lots of amusing stories, including why Stamos knows that all of Rickles' passwords are "Hitler."
