My brother worked as a NYC cop for an entire year in downtown Manhattan, following the 9/11 attacks. Dave had an apartment in that area and was extremely generous in providing a great deal of fine food and drinks for all of the first responders. He also visited with them and thanked them for their work. Made a point in keeping this quiet and without any publicity, as is his way. A real class act.
Man I tell ya.
This is the way
This is the way 👍🏾
I thought Dave also knew several of the "missing."
Didn't he abuse his young female interns? He had a private "apartment" in his studio.
I haven't seen Dave be this alive and engaged in front of a TV crowd in a decade. Class act by Jimmy to share the reins.
He did it just 5 months ago on this very show as well.
Jimmy is a HUGE fan of Letterman's! Jimmy openly cried on his show when he wished Dave good luck his last episode of Late Night.
Hes engaged on every appearance everywhere.
Thats your fault
I'll never forget Dave going on Conan's and Jon Stewart's shows when they were struggling and giving them a huge boost. Because he recognizes talent and he's a good guy.
He’s such a good guy he had inappropriate behavior with an intern on his show
And he owned it and atoned for it as best he could, refused to be blackmailed, Is still with his wife, who,has forgiven him, leaned from it and has spoken about how horrible he was. Hope you do as well with your worst mistake it life
@@jackm1444 I thought it was an affair with an intern? Actually I thought it was multiple interns, or maybe that was just gossip I'm not sure. But inappropriate sounds like something else...
@@daz5196 A thing to consider is the power dynamic in that circumstance. The boss having sex with an intern (the least of the least on the ladder) whether consensual or not, is problematic and "inappropriate" is exactly the right word to describe it.
@@chefrico1780 Absolutely. If that is what was meant then I'd of course agree. It's a clear abuse of his position. I just read it differently. I thought inappropriate was implying something more... such as the woman was very young or it was the way in which he pursued her that was inappropriate. Which is why I was saying my understanding is that it was an affair between two consenting adults.
I just cannot love Dave and Jimmy’s interactions any more than I do. Jimmy wears his heart on his sleeve and it’s refreshing to see genuine emotion from a television personality; Dave on the other hand is a class act and clearly shares a mutual respect for Jimmy and his career trajectory. I genuinely think there’s a hint of truth when Dave tells him he’s like a son to him.
❤
I agree. Two class acts in a world of big egos. Who could forget Jimmy standing up for his new born son and against Trump?
Jimmy’s excitement is beyond control. Showing much respect and love to his mentor. Good humans
You don't KNOW them, stop with the " good humans" you DONT KNOW THEM, YOU DONT KNOW PPL YOU SEE ON TV, GET A CLUE.
@@michaelhowardrosskrh74 I'm taking a wild guess here and saying nobody ever called you a good human.
The two wealthy turncoat communists
@@michaelhowardrosskrh74hope the rest of your day goes better mate 🙃
@ Micheal, you must be fun at a kids t-ball game! “Good job, nice try!” NO IT WASN’t! How could you call that good!?” Needle D
Jimmy being beyond himself and clearly enjoying his friend and mentor is really heart warming to see.
To be honest, I wouldn‘t say friend nor mentor. More like idol ;)
@@user-sr2wv1ol6eand he would readily agree
True!😂😅😊
Hearing Dave for the first time in so long really makes me realize how much I’ve missed him.
You and me both.
I love how these two regard each other. Sincerity and true affection.
Dave was not so much a guest but a co-host; he and Jimmy were interviewing each other. Love to see the affection they clearly have for each other.
But what's with the face-hiding beard? Why must men do that?
Yeah. Jimmy is great...such a gracious, talented, caring person. And if you noticed, only truly a-holes and toxic humans dislike Jimmy Kimmel. You know who they are....uh um...Tucker, Trump, and a few other human viruses.
@@shirleyrombough8173 It's hiding some of the parts they don't like very much.
That could not be better said. Thank you
@@shirleyrombough8173 Because some of Us like it..
When Dave retired everybody thought he was gonna pull a Johnny Carson and never be heard from again.
I'm so glad we still get to see him from time to time, he was always my favorite late night host from back in the day!
He never outstays his welcome which I like. He has not fallen into the trap of doing shows regularly - he keeps his appearances limited which keeps him fresh.
Johnny had multiple ex-wives and a drinking problem. Dave is just Dave.
@@traceythompson1092 Well Carson was married 4 times, and Dave did have multiple affairs over the decades until 2009.
@@johnking5174 And Letterman is a sober alcoholic.
@@johnking5174 true. But although he is a living legend to many, Dave was never held up as the nice guy that all of America went to bed with. For years Johnny was the only game in town. Dave was quirky and weird from day zero and he always went his own way; which is why NBC screwed him when Johnny retired, thus giving CBS a real shot at doing late night.
Surreal experience seeing David Letterman in front of an audience late night. Dave still has it. And he is so right...Jimmy knocked it out of the park with the Oscars!!!
Dave as a guest is surreal
Time just fades away and you exist in the present moment with him - and with JK when the two engage. Can't replace authenticity.
So true.
Kimmel has come far
@@danielrae861 just after years of Dave being a host it's surreal to see him as a guest. It's just so rare to see Dave on the other side of the desk. Carson would be truly surreal as I've only seen that once on Dave's show and the crowd cheered so hard Carson sat for maybe a minute and then got up and left.
@@timmmahhhh Yep. But Dave's guest appearance on Conan's Late Night right near the start is a pretty memorable rarity.
Dave literally took over the interview. Classic
Jimmy let him do it, wanted him to do it, out of respect. And Dave is getting old, losing edge.
@@saxefoner are you kidding? Dave is a sharp as ever.
He really doesn't like to be interviewed. But he loves Jimmy.
@@saxefoner It’s classic David. He wouldn’t even let his guests to talk while he was interviewing them 😂
This is how it used to be when Letterman was a host. He and others would have guests that took the reigns a bit with the host acting as an active listener/set up guy
David Letterman is an icon. An institution for late night talk show. Didn’t missed a beat after all these years
@Skarbie Well you one sad person to say that. And nobody knows you so your safe from scrutiny remember that.
Suffering???
@Skarbie Well 😂😂😂 "He laughed at Lindsay Lohan," cry me a river you baby
The absolute GOAT. Every major talk show host today cites him specifically as their inspiration and reason for wanting to do late night.
Don't forget Johnny Carson.
@@DonCohen2649 well, Carson was Letterman's mentor and inspiration, so on it goes down the line like with anything. Standing on the shoulders of the giants who came before you.
Jack Parr, Steve Allen, Johnny Carson, Merv Griffin, or are you really young?
the real GOAT is David Miscaviage
@@gfox9295 In other words you agree with me.
Dave is aging like fine wine and has some swagger. Love, love, love!
The beard is ugly.
He's still got it ...he went out on top,and people hated him when he was coming up
More like nasty cheese that you're afraid to touch in order to throw it away.
He’s aging like fine wine like he likes his women. Young. He’s a predator for going after intern
I love how happy this is making Jimmy. He’s positively giddy.
Every evening that his idol Letterman is on his show must feel like Christmas morning as a kid. ;)
It’s just adorable.
Jimmy Kimmel was like a kid in a candy store. His excitement was extraordinary.
Almost as excited to take a flight on the ole’ Lolita Express and visit his buddy Jeff
he is extraordinary; love him
Dave truly is the GOAT. Late night television was never more unpredictable, irreverent, borderline anarchic and smart. Him hosting the Oscars was like watching a punk rocker pranking a room full of stuffy self important sheep bewildered at what the hell was going on. I loved every minute of it even if he hated doing it.
And conan stood on his shoulders.
Johnny Carson is the GOAT. There, I fixed it for you.
Letterman would be the first to say so. He idolized Carson.
@@898cookie5417gurl Child, Conan is the immature carbon copy of Letterman. Everything Conan did Dave had already done starting a decade earlier. Key words, carbon copy.
@@gasaholic47 Carson did his late night show like a variety hour. Very much like the same format he inherited. He was clever, he was funny and the characters he played were popular. Nobody before had done what Dave did and everyone after blatantly copied him. Specially Conan O’Brien.
@@cactaceousdefinitely
I was in the audience it was fabulous
Jimmy is so happy and giddy to have his idol there
I need more thumbs for this! Dave hasn't missed a beat - as funny and quick witted as ever. His humor is in a category of its own, and he had me laughing from the start.
Well said! 😎
The mutual respect from these two is refreshing and heartwarming.
I just love Dave's dry, sarcastic, self-depricating style of humor ... too funny you're a legend!
Two of the greatest on one screen. Love to you both for all the smiles you've instigated over the years!
All his dressing rooms were built as WPA projects 😂😂 best joke I heard all week
I love how HE is interviewing Jimmy. He leads the conversation and asks questions out of genuine curiosity. He was born for his job
Missing David Letterman, love his humor, his presence in the prime time late night show.
This has to be one of the best late night shows I have ever seen...i'm a senior who has been watching Letterman since my childhood..jeeeez am i old...thankx Jimmy and Dave for making my late night so wonderful.
He's the reason I got bad grades in high school... how can you get good test scores when you're up until 1:30 every night watching David Letterman?
I was watching Carson for thirty years before I ever saw Letterman do a talk show. And that was starting at around 20, so don't worry, you ain't so old!
If you were a child in the 80's you're not a senior citizen.
@@treetopjones737 I am a child of the 50's -
You can see Jimmy almost choking up specially after Dave call him Dave Jr. it is so sweet!
I mean this was history in the making!
Classic. I've always loved Dave for keeping it real. Great to see him and Jimmy together.
I've been watching Dave since the early 70's when he was the late night and stand-in weatherman on Channel 13 in Indinanpolis, and then he got a Saturday night slot showcasing movies and entertaining between segments. I love his humor, and I'm glad to see his success. I've been watching Jimmy since early in his career too. Two great guys!
How sweet! David invited himself and Jimmy welcomed him passionately
Now that's some good guesting right there.
Dave's sharpness is a huge example for everyday stability for success no matter what you do. How important he is to pop culture and New York as city image is beyond my admiration, I feel privileged being able to see his shows and heard his name mentioned in so many different shows or publications. No wonder he is Jimmy's childhood idol!
Letterman is accurate: His praise of Jimmy's hosting of the Oscars is extremely well deserved!
"Jimmy Kimmel everybody 👏👏👏👏"
God I love Dave Letterman!! The GOAT IMO.
Dave is family. In the House every night for years making us laugh!
It's nice to see Jimmy so geeking over getting to spend time with an icon for him.
WoW Dave is on a whole other level! What a capable, nice and talented man he was and still is.
Jimmy, you hit a grand slam home run.
I love how Jimmy and Dave were both doing the interviewing!❤
I have been in love with David Letterman for probably more than 45 years. I just love the man.
Jimmy and David Letterman together is always a pleasure. I just save this moment in my heart ♥
Dave is a legend the G.O.A.T of the Late Night Show .. as for me no one comes close to be a Late Night Show host than David Letterman. Always a pleasure watching him and listening to him. God bless you Dave.
Interestingly Johnny Carson received the same parise. In 15 some years when Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert retire they will be praised equally.
My thoughts EXACTLY! I think you speak for all of us who proclaim Letterman the GOAT.
@@cowgirlcookers8315 oh yes 🙌 Amen 🙏 sister !!!
In fact Dave can be considered a “National Treasure” too in my humblest of opinion 🙏🥰
@@karlheinzegger9790 Yeah it is very generational, but only one person stands out to most people from each of the first two generations of Late Night, and that’s Johnny Carson then David Letterman.
I think Dave's hair is the only thing that has aged about him. His posture, his voice, his energy, his everything else, it doesn't look like he has aged a single day since he retired from the Late Show. 😍😍😍❤❤❤
Totally agree. The guy looks like he's a master of self care.
Because you can't see his face.
Actually feels like he is in a better place now than in his last several years on CBS. Like he has more energy and vitality not going through the daily grind
This was one of the greatest interviews in TV history. To see how much Kimmel admires Dave is fabulous. Warmed my heart! What a team!
I love how Jimmy’s body bounces on the chair when he laughs…that is hilarious 👏🏼👏🏼
15:03 I don't think I've ever heard that sound come out of Jimmy before🤣🤣🤣
The greatest late night show host of all time. I miss seeing him!
Dave is the best. I’m always so happy to see him on TV.
That was a great interview and yes, he should be on every night! Or at least weekly! 😆
He got tired of being beat every night by Leno, ratings don’t lie! Also congratulations Jimmy on the lowest ratings for the oscars in over a decade!!!
What a sweet delight seeing these two. Jimmy loves Dave, and Dave is so gracious. It’s the best.
We want Dave back on air.
He has been back on air. His Netflix show is incredible.
@@ToniMcGinty And now this Disney+ special... Dave's starting to do the tour of the streaming networks.
He's going to be the next guest on Michelle Obama's new podcast. Maybe next week?
Please.....🎉
Master of dry wit comedy 😂, everytime I could run home in time and watch "Late Night with David Letterman" was a treat... cracking up after midnight, when my parents were trying to sleep.Paul Schaefer could be funny too
Yep! And then I would switch over to NBC to watch Conan after. Perfect end to every weeknight. 😘
I miss those days so much! I raised my kids on Letterman!
Simmons was a great interview...specially with Dave...absoulte fun 🤣🤣🤣
I love seeing my favorite talk show hosts show their appreciation for each other and the camaraderie between them.
Super fun watch. So good to see Dave looking fit and trim, sharp as a tack and funnier than the average cocaine bear. 🤣👏
😂😆🤣👌
Dave completely took over the first half of this interview, always the host lol
...and to Jimmy's credit, he just rolled with it and it turned out great!!!
Same old Dave! But he has warmed up a little in his old age. He used to be more distant with people but I think age has shown him how nice it can be to let people in. Glad he's still up and around!
And this is why I love Jimmy Kimmel. We share a common love! ❤ I, like Kimmel, have been a Letterman devotee since his daytime show, with Edwin Newman doing the news at the half hr.
David Letterman was the opening act of a concert when I was in college (late 70s - early 80s). The headliner? Ray Charles. To this day, it is the only performance that I wanted to immediately buy tickets to see the show again. An unlikely pairing and both gave A+ performances.
That must have been fantastic!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love both Dave and Jimmy.
This interview took me back 20ys. Dave is still amazing.
Jimmy's laugh is so cute, he's so happy to have Dave as a guest.
There is only one David Letterman. He is the best!!
Jimmy interviewed his inspiration. 👏👏
😅
OMG I wish you could talk to David every night. He was the 1st talk show host I stayed up late to watch when I was a kid. I'm still hooked. Love his hilarious stories ❤
I feel truly sorry for people who didn't grow up watching Late Night with David Letterman
Glad to see Dave again, I love him so much💋
My favorite David Letterman interview was when he was interviewing Barack Obama and watching Barack Obama turn the interview around, and he was interviewing David Letterman. It made me laugh. ❤
It's a delight to see such a quick thinkers talking funny stuff like these two..
I'm glad this year's Oscars were about the Oscars and not eclipsed by bad behavior. Seeing the nominees and the awards being what it should be
You actually watch that garbage? 🤮
Dave’s the perfect person to represent given his past behavior of being a predator to an intern
Like Bill O'Reilly...
"Bad behavior"? Try criminal.
@@edub9930 I suggest you look up the state states for criminal behavior. NOWHERE will you find sex between consenting adults categorized as "criminal " But then you send like a moron
I really loved Dave's interview show on Netflix. His style has changed from the Late Show, but I enjoy how much fun he's having. I still can't ever get over that beard every time I see him.
That was the most confident walk out in late night television history... 🥇
I have always been impressed with Dave’s posture and his stride.
💯 at home in that setting! It truly looked as if he was just walking into a buddy's house, looking around to see the new decorations and saying hi to the family before flopping down in his favorite seat 😊
It's so great to see David Letterman again! And also seeing his influence on Jimmy's comedy❤
I can watch this interview all night, Dave is a boss at what he knows, very comfortable, good conversation, goes back and forth with the host.
(Letterman/Bernie Sanders 2024)
They are both such lovely and funny gentlemen.
Not really.
I appreciate Dave sharing that he has anxiety. He’s really an inspiration for people who deal with it ❤
I used to watch a lot of Late show with David, glad to see him still as witty and sharp as ever 😂❤Time has flown🕊️....
Awesome segment!
Great to see Mr. Letterman again and hear his stories.
Much fun. 🙂
I love Jimmy Kimmel and David, what a legend!
This is so great. I know how Jimmy admires Dave and Dave's complements I'm certain mean the world to him. Plus Jimmy deserves it. He did a bang up job at the Oscars, smooth, professional. I particularly liked how casual and relaxed he came off doing the show. Must have put others at ease, too. Nice going, Jimmy. One of the best Oscar Shows yet.
jimmy rules!
It's just plain heartwarming to see the love and respect Jimmy K has for Letterman. It's a beautiful thing to have someone to look up to. I've been fortunate to have my older brother set an amazing example and pace for me my whole life. Although there are enough "Days", I wish that they had a "National Role Model Day" for folks.
Nice to see Dave take time off from the elves at the North Pole. 🎅🏼
I’m sorry 😊I don’t know what are you saying 😅
@@landy9989 Dave’s white beard looks similar to Santa Claus’s white beard.
There's something very calming and comforting listening to David Letterman's voice again.
Dave, I love your work and you as a person. Thanks for all those times you made me laugh and forget my troubles! Many blessings to you and your loved ones! 😎🌈
I watched Dave faithfully for many years. It was heartbreaking for me when he ended his run on late night. The man is one of a kind. What made him so funny is the fact you never know what is going to come out of his mouth. He's incredibly intelligent and goofy which made his interviews all the more engaging. He could make most mundane guest interesting. He's interviewed Presidents and other heads of state then turn a 180 and interview Paris Hilton!! Yes, he did poke fun of some of them but that's his way. I just love the work he does now. He has an incredible presence and still has that sharp sense of humor that makes him so unique. Loves that he refers to Jimmy as "James". LoL!!!!
Why can't Dave fill in a few nights when Jimmy takes vacation?
Good call
@Magpie That would be awesome!
It would be fun if they could make Dave guest hosting a surprise.
I think he might do it at this point. I could see him filling in for a week.
Such a heart warming show 💓 Thank you 💓
It's a good thing Dave took over the interview because I think Jimmy would've been too overwhelmed to ask anything! 😄
Love seeing Jimmy fanboy so much!!! 😍❤😍
I cannot get enough of Dave! Had a crush on him since the early 90’s. 😍
“You resurrected this carcass” (the Oscars)- excellent observation!
Letterman is the KING 👑
SAY THANK YOU
so blessed to have him in your studio
Dave we miss you!
I am so happy every time Jimmy gets to talk to David. It’s so amazing to meet people you really have admired your whole life,AND not be disappointed.💜
This was truly a pleasure to watch. Two guys just chatting and enjoying each other.
His recognizable voice behind that silvery ball of hair, brought good memories of his show, which I watched practically every night..🌙
Good to see David Letterman again.
David Letterman is the best!! I first saw him on his day time TV show years ago!! Thought he was great and then it got cancelled!! Moving to late night was the best!! Love love loved his shows!! Thanks for having him on Jimmy!!
Dave really set the bar for fantastic musical guests of all levels and genres. I always felt like he was a fan of each band on his stage. And every host of late night shows that's attempted to repeat that level has created so much joy for those of us who get to experience it on their shows.
I still remember discovering Kpop through Dave’s show, 6 months before Gangnam Style went viral!
So many artists and bands before they were popular.
Dave is the host actually tonight it seems🙈 love him so much!!!!
