Letterman Defines Difference Between Himself and Leno

Dave Letterman is a classic comic. His timing is near perfect – but his willingness to take on controversial topics nears courageous – even at the expense of his own reputation. Dave tackles the topic of the difference between himself and Jay Leno. Listen for the joke on Dick Cheney:

Letterman on Tiger Woods

That Dave Letterman is either really funny or he has no sense of shame.  He said he wished Tiger would quit calling him for advice.  That may have been intended as a joke but perhaps Tiger could use a little advice right now.

Raymond Crowe does Louis Armstrong

Raymond Crowe is a shadow puppeteer from Australia. The idea seems trite – but trite in the hands of a master changes perspective. This shadowy rendition of Louis Armstrong is perfectly executed.

McCain is a Mall Walker – Letterman

Son, David Letterman really took off on John McCain. Is this a sign of things to come? Are the comedians going to make fun of old people, or just John McCain? Does humor have boundaries? Not in this case. McCain has put himself out there – knowing as an experienced politician that all thing are […]
