Dave Hears Way Too Much About Barbara's Trip To Europe | Letterman

[@kinsmed]

Barbara is finally the highlight of her own show. Mary takes to the camera provide accent.

[@w46try7]

This is the perfect group; all 3 keep showing up. I’m now addicted to these simple funny videos.

[@tvviewer4500]

I love that Barbra finally accepted that she has a show!!

[@kstepko]

Mary always has the look of a teenager visiting her grandparents against her will.

[@ApolloVIIIYouAreGoForTLI]

Thats a brillant anaology!

[@RideAcrossTheRiver]

That zinger she let go!

[@badad0166]

I love her twisted mouth. "ERmm, okay."

[@martiemc8398]

I never thought Letterman would be shocked at anything😂😂😂

[@debschaefer7820]

"I threw up in your dressing-room once" 😂😂😂

[@dongiller]

None of them have heard of the Dave Cave? What a waste of a life.

[@TheKarlos]

We need some Barbara Gaines Show merch.

[@TheKarlos]

Plastic vomit with the show's logo.

[@mhmrules]

I got a Barbara Gaines Show shirt! :D

[@7wolfman78]

May you all keep your youthful enthusiasm ❤ Thanks for all the laughter

[@dontrockwobble]

Was it also Barbara who once handed Dave a blue card mid-segment that read "before the show, an audience member threw up and everyone in line saw it", which sidetracked the entire bit?

[@debschaefer7820]

I think so. I think I saw it recently.

[@lifegood1712]

Definitely a connection, she knows what seeing someone vomiting can do to an audience and didn't want to traumatize Amsterdam by vomiting in front of everyone. She felt that the audience wasn't into the show because of that first incident, so she gave the note to someone she thought should know, like a director or producer, and they decided to put it on Dave's desk. It is on one of her favorite memories of the show videos. Maybe this will be one of her favorite memories from her show! The question now is, was she the person they saw vomit. I'd say "no".

[@HoosierDuhawk]

Hi Dave, Barbara, and Mary. The answer to the World's Largest Cave is: Mammoth Cave in Kentucky. I've been there a few times! An amazing place! I look forward to my prize! Thanks! -Tim

[@alandoane9168]

I'm so happy Barbara's feeling well enough to travel!

BARBARA! - Get that checked out!!!! I had an issue with my esophagus forever...turns out it was an Esophageal Ring that was restricting it....then went in with a balloon and expanded it and its been fine ever since!

For a few reasons, I think this conversation would have really worked on Dave's 1980 morning show.

[@rocketreindeer]

Oh man, that was disgusting as hell, plus I also laughed hilariously. A stained glass window of feelings. I hope the non-barf parts of the trip were fun.

[@mostamused2797]

My wife and I had a great meal at the Brat Stop in Kenosha. Exiting, she vomited just outside the entrance. (Same problem, Barbara.) We hightailed it out of there. She won't go to restaurants anymore. She saw your photo and she agrees, "nice pants".

[@flyjarrett]

Been to the Brat Stop many times. I doubt anyone noticed!

[@JackSilbert]

Send this one directly to the Museum of Broadcasting. Love you, Barbara!!

[@elizabethlarson9655]

It's really pretty hilarious how much Mary clearly hates being on this show. Her body language is like that of someone being interrogated by police.

[@falsemcnuggethope]

She's perfect.

The deadpans to the camera are perfect.

[@gregmiell3037]

[@MissylovesTrouble]

The first thing I noticed in the picture was her pants too! I glanced over at the vomit, then back at the pants cause they are so cute. ROFL, her wife taking pictures while she vomits, rofl.....

[@falsemcnuggethope]

Did you roll in her vomit laughing?

[@naneek2]

Mr. Letterman, I found your lost marbles. Literally. Remember when you rolled thousands of marbles down a hill in San Francisco? my mom and I recognized the hill, so went out bright and early the next morning and searched for any remaining marbles. Your crew did a fantastic job cleaning them up, but we were able to find a few handfulls of marbles waaay down the hill. I would love to see some more clips from Dave's week long stint in San Francisco in the mid 90s. Especially the marbles.

[@JusticeForTheDead]

She wins her own show finally! LOL... she's fun. Dave SLEIGHS me when he talks all old-folksy about technology and 'ring the bell' etc... you silly man. I love your personality!! :)

[@clarkschuyler8245]

Mary's face when Barbara starts telling how she vomit's everywhere is classic. 🤣🤣

[@notchrisfast4355]

Best episode ever!

[@Tommyr]

Barbara "Look out, here it comes!" Gaines! Glad to see Mary too, what a great smile she has!

[@kstepko]

I was not expecting a PHOTOGRAPH … and frankly, could have done without seeing it!

[@falsemcnuggethope]

You choose what you watch.

[@bortusklyden831]

Wonderful that Barbara visited my country, would have loved to greet her. Next time visit Rotterdam, so much more beautiful than Amsterdam. Completely rebuilt since WW2, looks like New York in its infant phase.

[@ownpetard8379]

Is Rotterdam vomit friendly, like Amsterdam? Are vomiters welcome to visit? And by "New York" do you mean New Amsterdam?

[@bortusklyden831]

@@ownpetard8379 Certainly vomit friendly however probably cleaned up more swiftly. And yes New York was originally called New Amsterdam but good thing they renamed it, unless it was for New Rotterdam ;)

[@fredericksmith7169]

But we also have a Rotterdam, NY near me. ​Of course it was originally Dutch but Italians arrived about 100 years and now it's a city with a Dutch name but more people from Calabria and Sicily than the Netherlands.

[@bortusklyden831]

​@@fredericksmith7169 I know you guys have another Rotterdam. It always pops up when I want to select my own Rotterdam in my weather app. But anyway, I want to officially welcome the Italians in my shadow town ;)

[@fredericksmith7169]

@ownpetard8379 New Netherland actually. I don't personally have any Dutch lineage but my sister's husband is a direct descendant of one of the founders of our Rotterdam (and the larger neighboring city of Schenectady), a man named Hendrick Meesz Vrooman of Leiden, Holland.

[@cactaceous]

I once many moons ago threw up on the streets of Amsterdam when I was 20 years old because I had eaten mushrooms. The next 7 hours where quite eventful.

[@HockeyXC31]

[@mattkramer4132]

Tivo her show Dave??? I just set the timer on the VCR for Barbara's show. Still trying to figure out if I wanna stay with Beta or switch over to VHS.

[@oregonebikermark8953]

There goes my appetite lol

[@johnh3]

Can we have a “Dave Reacts” edition of the Barbara Gaines show please? Dave… bring back the sanity to the world!

[@ClockwiseCat]

Is this the first time she has introduced it as the Barbara Gaines Show? I love her!

[@dennyzartman]

This could be the single greatest episode in the history of television. Plus the KZbin subtitles call her "Barbie Games", which makes it even better.

[@rafaelcaus3762]

Vomiting in amsterdam > Bear story. LOL

[@RZLAND]

Glad to see Mary is so happy to be there. I've not heard the answer yet, but my guess would be Kentucky.

[@adrianmiller1971]

Best trio on youtube...this should be a morning show

[@robclarkson5356]

Hey Barbara, if you missed any episodes of the BGS while you were away you can find them on youtube

[@irenehoffman2190]

Barbara, don't let the sherbert dish/street incident keep you from another Amsterdam visit. Try the Van Gogh museum or the tulip village for your next throat upset.They've got lovely designated areas at each of those places. Hello, Mary!! Good to see your guest again!

[@AnnieThyme]

Omg, I relate way to mich to this. I have gastroparesis and while Barbara was talking I was thinking I hope she has been checked for it as acid reflux is a common misdiagnosis and more suspicious when the reflux treatments don't control it. I was so shocked when Dave mentioned gastroparesis as it's not usually mentioned when people talk about stomach problems. Mine is quite severe and to avoid getting caught with no empty sorbet cups to hand I have a tote bag that I have a sandpail or small garbage can inside that I can hide by closing but can theow the flap back quick as needed and it's really a life saver! I wouldn't want anyone else to need to carry this around with them but it really makes life a lot easier when you vomit at unexpected times!

[@ForbinColossus]

Have you ruled out 'H. Pylori' ?

[@AnnieThyme]

@ForbinColossus yes, it was ruled out several times :) They have since found I have a number of other linked symptoms related to a neuro immune issue that is likely the cause of it all :)

[@rocketRobScott]

This should be known as the “Exorcist” episode.

[@Armakk]

Mary, Barbara & Dave at 5:20 is my new desktop wallpaper 🙌👀

[@vinalboy]

Barbara you should have this checked by a gastroenterologist to make sure you don’t have Barrett’s Esophagus. It will involve having an endoscopy. 🙏

[@TheMattsterling]

If I hadn't already subscribed, this would have clinched it. Barbara came on strong and I thought this was going to be her moment to shine. I did not expect the visual proof of her Dutch induced vomit. Didn't they used to call Reagan Dutch? That would explain a lot. Keep up the great work, I'm retired and the alert for this show is one of my few remaining pleasures.

@MostAmused I saw your comment about your wife, I too suffer for almost 30 years with gastroparesis--Dave is right that is the name of the condition ---after just a couple of bites I can’t eat anymore I feel very full, if I try to eat more then I have to throw up. But I don’t let myself go that far which means I can barely eat and no doctor was able to help me all these years. I can’t remember when was the last time I enjoyed a meal. Since you said your wife has this problem,did she find any help? I hope you don’t mind me asking, they told me there is no cure or medication for it, it’s extremely unpleasant, it actually turns your life upside down. So I hope you don’t mind, I thought I ask. Thank you 😊

@Dane Orschlovsky. Beside how funny this few minutes of “show” is and I am a huge fan of Dave and Barbara who of course was one of the producers on his Late show but it got my attention what you wrote: I agree it wasn’t the most desirable thing to talk about how much she was puking,but Dave was right: it is gastroparesis. I have it for almost 30 years, but I don’t let myself go so far to throw up. But that means that I can barely eat, I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a meal. I eat a few bites and I feel I am very full, can’t eat a bite more. Yes I was diagnosed with gastroparesis,but no doctor could help me to this day. I’m taking Prilosec that helps very little,but I actually don’t really have acid reflux or heartburn, I don’t have those symptoms. I am struggling with this for so long. Since you mentioned that you know someone who has it and she’s a doctor I hope you don’t mind me asking,does she know what helps with that, I know there is no cure or medication specifically for that,but does she do something that helps her? I would so much appreciate if you can find out something. Thank you 😊
