'We just have to grin and bear it,' says Brooks, who used to dine nightly with his fellow comedy legend, of social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic.
A couple of weeks after starring with son Max Brooks in a #DontBeASpreader PSA encouraging fans to practice social distancing, the 93-year-old director is sharing with CBS Sunday Morning how he and best friend Carl Reiner, 98, are staying connected in the absence of their nightly dinners.
In the weeks since, however, social distancing and coronavirus concerns among the elderly have put those hangouts on pause — sort of. According to their interview with CBS Sunday Morning — conducted over web chat, of course — the longtime pals are finding ways to keep up their routine. Jokes aside, Brooks’s son, Max, from his marriage to the late actress Anne Bancroft, admitted that his famous father was struggling with the situation.
