Black Belt, White Noise: Bowie Gets A Karate Lesson

There's something about this clip from a 1975 episode of The Dinah Shore Show that makes us wonder if we didn't miss out on a lot by being born midway through the '70s. Whatever Ellen and Rachael Ray may be offering, it can't really compare to the awkward giggle the Thin White Duke lets fly after he's told to aim for the groin of anyone who might be attacking him.
