California man stranded on side of road with car trouble calls tow truck for help. Before the tow can arrive, Jay Leno comes to the rescue.


Dwayne Henry, a luxury real estate agent from Los Angeles, was out for a joyride in his vintage Mercedes-Benz when he received roadside assistance from a most unlikely mechanic: Jay Leno.

Henry appeared on Thursday’s broadcast of “The Glenn Beck Program,” where he detailed his experience with Leno and more.

What’s a brief history?

On Sunday, Henry and his girlfriend were driving around Los Angeles near West Hollywood’s Sunset Strip.

The pair decided to get some air during the coronavirus pandemic while still maintaining social distancing measures with the public.

Henry, who works at Westside Estate Agency, discovered that the car — a 1953 Mercedes-Benz — was experiencing mechanical trouble after the brakes failed to work correctly.

He pulled over on the side of the road to assess the trouble and place a call for roadside assistance. Just minutes later, Leno — a car aficionado in his own right — pulled up in his Tesla next to Henry to offer help. A tow truck showed up shortly after Leno’s arrival, and armed with the mechanic’s tools, Leno worked to diagnose the brake issue.

What did Henry say about the chance meeting?

During Thursday’s chat, Henry told Beck that he was driving near Charing Cross Road — home of the $30,000,000 home price tag as well as the Playboy Mansion — when he experienced the car trouble.

“While I’m waiting [for the tow truck], this little Tesla pulls up. Jay Leno gets out of the car,” he said and noted that he greeted Leno.

Leno asked if he was having car troubles, and offered his help.

“I think I’m having some brake issues here, I’m not really sure,” Henry recalled telling the longtime entertainer.

Henry said that Leno directed him to pop the hood of the vintage car to give it a once-over.

“Tow truck driver pulls up, my buddy Jimmy pulls up, they’re trying to figure out what the hell is Jay is doing in the hood of my engine compartment working on the car. He was looking at stuff, looking around. He turned around and asked if the tow truck driver had a wrench,” Henry recalled.

The tow truck driver obliged, and armed Leno with a wrench so he could diagnose the issue with the vehicle.

“Jay’s looking around,” he said. “[He] takes the nut off to release … pressure where the brake fluid and all this stuff is, and kind of diagnosing the car, breaking stuff down, telling me this, showing me that, wants to know who worked on the car, told him who worked on my car. He goes, ‘Well, when you talk to the guy, tell him I think it’s this.’ You know, this brake issue.”

He added, “It was so surreal. I’m looking at Jay, literally in my engine compartment with a wrench, working on my car.”

Beck shared a Leno encounter of his own, in which he and his wife and, at the time, two young children were able to visit Leno’s personal garage, which housed Bugattis at the time.

“He took the kids for probably 15 minutes and was driving them around in some of the cool electric cars from the turn of the century,” he recalled. “This guy is the real deal. I really like him.”

JAY LENO UNLOADS ON OBAMA IN DEVASTATING ‘TONIGHT SHOW’ MONOLOGUE


http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Hollywood/2013/05/22/leno-unloads-obama-monologue

President Barack Obama is a nightmare for political comedians. He’s too cool, too smart, too … good at this whole leadership thing.

That was the bill of goods comedians sold us five years ago, an excuse which prevented them from mocking Obama as they did every previous Commander in Chief.

Jay Leno wasn’t buying that pile of horse manure.

Leno has consistently tweaked Obama in his Tonight Show monologues since the early days of the president’s administration, the same way Leno handled President George W. Bush and President Bill Clinton.

This week, Leno turned up the heat to scorching levels while some of his peers resorted to full spin mode regarding Obama’s cascade of scandals. Tuesday night, Leno mocked Obama’s commencement address at Morehouse College as well as the president’s claim that he learned about the latest scandals hitting his administration from watching news reports.

And a Chicago man has set a new Guinness Book world record for the longest ferris wheel ride. He went 48 hours, 48 hours straight riding the ferris wheel in Chicago’s Navy pier. In fact, the only way to go around and around in circles that many times is to read the official report on Benghazi. That’s about the only way to go around and around.

Well, look at this. The White House, the White House has admitted that President Obama’s chief of staff had advanced warning the IRS was targeting conservative groups but never told the president. Well, President Obama says the first time he heard about the IRS scandal and the AP phone records scandal, first time he heard about it was from the media. See, that’s why President Obama holds press conferences: not to explain what’s going on, to find out what’s going on. To find out what – oh, of course.

LenoAnd wouldn’t you know it, Leno’s ratings are on the rise these days.

The ratings leader in his time slot, Leno positively crushed Letterman and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel in the just-released early May sweeps ratings.

It’s too late for Leno to save his job, which will fall to Obama sycophant Jimmy Fallon next year. Leno will go out the same way he served late night viewers for the past 20-plus years, poking fun at the president in true satirist fashion.
