Playing Twister with Louie Anderson

I was hoping to listen to an online recording of Paul Harris' radio interview with comedian Robert Schimmel. Unfortunately, the link is broken. Some of Harris' other interviews are available, but I really wanted to hear the Schimmel one because he talks about his appearance on "Hollywood Squares" during its early-2000s run. He said the producers kept stopping the taping because of responses like this:

HOST: If you are reaching for your mashy or your niblet, what are you doing?
ROBERT SCHIMMEL: Playing Twister with Louie Anderson.


He didn't realize that "Family Feud" (which Anderson hosted at the time) taped in a nearby studio!

EDIT: Here's a stand-up video where he talks about his "Squares" experience:
