Eddie Murphy Crashes Dick Cavett's Interview | Letterman

[@kstepko]

I love how Eddie was constantly conversing with off camera members of his entourage during talk show interviews.

[@Rob_Kates]

"Cable weasels."

[@cynthiafritze7418]

This is great especially when you hear Eddie talk about this time in his life now. Very cool. Time capsule. Thanks Dave❤

[@thelettermanpodcast]

This is Dick’s favorite memory of being on a talk show as a guest. He talks about it on his appearance on our show. Thank you to the Letter,a channel for putting this up!

[@marcusthompson313]

yo - what did he have in that sock?

[@AndyAcker]

​@@marcusthompson313 This was my question as well!

[@jesuschambrot2164]

THe guy who knocked on Eddie' s door was one of the Farrely Brothers of Dumb and Dumber fame and would later win an Oscar.

[@4747da]

He has so much charisma and natural talent. Not everyone can glide over letterman's cynicism with a smile.

[@kstepko]

Everybody talks about “Party All the Time”, but few people remember the B-Side “Too Much Party Can Kill You (Especially in the ‘80s)”.

[@Rob_Kates]

Martin Mull should have made a song called "Hollywood is like high school with money."

[@siggylloyd3566]

@@Rob_Kateskiller reference there 😊

[@chalkbunt81]

But do YOU remember, " Put Your Mouth On Me"?

[@AldousHuxleysCat]

Preferred Arsino's Make Me Say Ow!

[@RyanBell-k6c]

Tell that to Diddy.... Up! Too late! He's in jail now 😂

[@KevinAgot]

Talk about an “odd couple”. That was a friendship I never knew existed as they seemed to be complete opposites. Thanks for sharing this wonderful vid. It was great seeing their back and forth with one another.

[@yournamehere6002]

Cavett is friends with Woody Allen, who was good friends with Jean Domanian, who put Eddie Murphy on SNL when she was the producer in 1980.

[@misterx420]

This is a great clip! Cavett and Murphy have great chemistry together. Very funny!

[@MrNewktrane]

Classic: " What paper did you read that in? The Post?!" Eddie's facial expression here hits just as accurate 40 years on. I remember watching this Letterman episode .

[@heatherreis3276]

You can see the oops expression after the facial expression about the magazine; and then the relief once he realizes you can't be sued for making a facial expression.

[@horacio-ho3bf]

​@@heatherreis3276i don't think EM was too worried about being sued by a right wing rag

[@doktormcnasty]

I haven't by any means seen them all but this is my favorite Letterman interview thus far. Great chemistry here with these three.

[@Biboche23]

Thank you to whoever is paid to upload videos on here. I’m happy to see interviews I’ve missed over the years because i missed them, or was in school or not born yet or because i wasn’t living in north America yet so not on French tv, or bits I know from growing up in the late2000s KZbin 😂💀❤ im grateful for those clips they keep uploading randomly fun and interesting and very pop culture relevant

[@justayoutuber1906]

I love anyone that can make a comedian laugh.

[@MichelleUS66]

Eddie’s “Ed McMahon impersonation” at 12:40 was great! 😂

[@oldmangamer76]

The duo I never thought I needed. This is gold!

[@michelleagleton2344]

Eddie Murphy- funny, charismatic, handsome, genuine, polite, the real deal. Loved the early 80's when he first broke onto the scene.

[@marymagdalene3004]

Polite?

[@mariegeorge8865]

I watched "SNL" for Eddie Murphy. He was terrific.

[@damianbyrne1664]

3 legends...

[@denverrandy7143]

Dang,they had everyone on the 2nd Mtv Awards

[@rayhume1971]

A quintessentially American double feature.

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

I bet he did get "snowed in" at Rick James' place.

[@chuckolah4525]

Damn, I wasn't quick enough. Died as soon as he said that.

[@potatonots]

Heck yeah! Golden Child was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I. Even burned out the VHS😢😅 Golden Child 2! Let’s Go Eddie!

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

dave gave him such a good cue with that "lots of honeys" line.

[@JM-fi6ce]

I have loved this segment for sooo long. Belongs in some museum, or something.

[@Andrew-Antioch-Kim]

Eddie Murphy is one of, if not, the greatest comedian of all-time!

[@GregB419]

Richard Pryor is possibly the greatest of all time. Not much of a discussion about Eddie Murphy

[@Jonathan-pp3du]

​@@GregB419Naw Eddie is right there with him and I'm old enough to have seen both at their peak.

[@Put-that-down]

Did Cavet tell a story about visiting a Thai brothel? Different times.

[@AndyAcker]

Yeah that part hits different today, but he also seemed like a bemused observer of this cultural phenomenon

[@tomlichnofsky.7048]

Eddie Murphy IS the MAN! 👍😎👌 Again!! 👊😎✊🍁

[@shaneyoung3407]

Not what I expected. This was pretty damn funny.

[@taurusjohnson1682]

His baseline completely changed. You can’t find this version of Eddie in any of his interviews done today.

[@buggyboogle9]

True. He’s way, way more reserved nowadays. With some interviewers, it’s like pulling teeth, like he doesn’t give anything for free. And he said he even changed his natural laugh. I think in the intervening years, he’s been burned too much.

[@dochilliard2434]

Two masters doing what they do!

[@maddymud]

Imagine how it must have been for Eddie to hang out with this person while lived on his television screen as a kid, and tell him what to do - and he does it

[@denverrandy7143]

"I i i want tha knife.......Pleaseeee"

[@RyanBell-k6c]

That laugh roaring laugh Eddie got is contagious 😂

[@concernedhuman436]

Eddie Murphy (Michael Jordan too) made me love my complexion. Eddie is my hero.

[@GenesisGunn]

So what were you doing before?

[@TheDebbiesDooDads]

Lots of honeys. 😂😂😂😂

[@gjace26]

He ends up using his singing in his material. He was singing in vampire in Brooklyn, hilarious stuff

[@helzyah9531]

This guy sounds exactly like Donkey from Shrek

[@mariegeorge8865]

😂😂😂

[@peaceandlove544]

We had a paper route together 😂😂😂

[@GlennTillema]

"Why'd you tell me that?" Holy f**k!!! God that's funny!

[@peaceandlove544]

When he was humble and funny and charismatic

[@fuiers]

Cavett and Murphy what a duo.

[@kstepko]

Eddie has been nominated for an Oscar only once, for “Dreamgirls”. Unfortunately, he lost to Alan Arkin.

[@antoniomanriquez8176]

Dave could probably get these two on a stage together. The stories these friends could tell now would be perfect for that cable junk. Or Netflix.

[@jimmyfaherty8588]

I loved "golden child".

[@boomerang8909]

10:53 Wow, Eddie got MTV boss on air!

[@JornBjerregaard]

The bit with the toothpaste Cavett had bought in Bangkok has been cut out. Probably too controversial today…

[@AndyAcker]

Wait, is that what's in his sock?

[@pawsitivitypeople4305]

I ❤ Eddie Murphy.

[@SeanMcGonigle-ul3xk]

Jost/Che friendship 30 years earlier. ❤❤❤😂😂😂

[@bobbyk9815]

11:43 Eddie hoping for the glass sound effect.

[@ninestories2]

Google played an ad (for Boeing lol) to see that timestamp 😹

[@williamgottlieb8723]

That reminds me..... I have to put toothpaste on the shopping list.

[@boomerang8909]

11:33 The heat is on.

[@ednalegge9465]

The post lol

[@Henry-kz4gn]

"its music, not comedy at all" well, it was a little bit ...comedic

[@NelsonVlog66]

The title track "How Could It Be" is a good track, too.

[@stephenprescott8820]

What the HECK is in Cavett's sock???

[@AndyAcker]

Apparently toothpaste, but that part has been edited out

[@plaws0]

There are a few things I def don't miss from the 80s but this is NOT one of them. Holy cow was that funny.

[@horacio-ho3bf]

Wow, the MTV lineup sounded amazing....i hated a lot of the 80s when growing up, but those acts are choice

[@asynchronicity]

Well, he ended up moving to Hollywood after all😅

[@kevvymetal666]

Eddie was on not long before this and the interview is 65% same same.

[@DJMikeMarquez]

Well damn... After watching this, now i want to see Ruben Blades! Please 🙏

[@pwsn2007]

Note to self take a trip to Bangkok.

[@famebrightstudio451]

Bob looks like a Will Ferrell character, so does Les

[@heatherreis3276]

Cavett's expert sycophantic tendencies on full display. Endearing though some might find it cringey.

[@hicks727]

19:25 what the hell is in his sock

[@asynchronicity]

Bob was played by Andy Kaufman

[@Hypnogely]

So weird that MTV executive was there talking about it being sold and eventually CBS and MTV would belong to Paramount.

[@Progbassist]

I'm not sure what it is, but there was something "off" with Cavett in the 80's. Almost like he was under some substance or having some personal issues. Check the interview with Murphy in Cavett's own show also from 1985, just odd behaviour. He was better in the 60's and 70's.

[@mariegeorge8865]

Cavett had terrible depression problem; got help but may have affected him.

[@glenngrinter6818]

He's so cute!

What's Cavet hidind in his sock? 🤔

[@sheilaf1946]

I also was trying to figure that out

[@TheMatSignal.]

Whatever Eddie dared him to?😂

[@kevinmiller8924]

After watching this , I'm not so mad at David Spade. Eddie went a little overboard.

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

oy vay were his instincts wrong on Golden Child. wadda clunker.

[@Messonround]

Dig nuff like dat! A$$ 💸

[@ChangeShift-b4b]

tears for fears!!!

[@tallontedvideoandtechsolutions]

Golden Child didnt work out anyway.

[@KekeElBecko]

"What kind of a life does this man live these days?" Hmmm, could we ever even imagine? If only the 1980s lifestyle of Rick James were acted out for us 20 years later. Nice preamble Dave, but, ah well!

[@phrancklynbillsonmc2581]

Hello ' Eddy beauty hellas that nice movie for title : " Tower heist " Kiss and salute from europe ! ✌

[@mikefolknation2851]

Ironic I just watched Eddie's entire interviews on another channel last night.

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

More like, "coincidental" . Irony requires a bit more .....irony. for future reference: "A coincidence is two unrelated things happening in a way to make them seem correlated. Irony is when an action has the opposite effect you would expect.".

[@Newcreations525]

Bob looks like will Ferrell

[@kstepko]

No, Eddie! Don’t make “The Golden Child”! 😬

[@natmanprime4295]

it was a great film!!

[@pwsn2007]

REAL entertainment based on real life and no idiots to cancel them!

[@GojiAnguirus]

Eddie Murphy is still alive, right? With this channel, as much as I love it, you have to check sometimes.

[@bobbyk9815]

He's got a new "Beverly Hills Cop" movie out.

[@EldenRink]

He just released a new movie!

[@missoula2213]

Stupid comments like this have to stop.

[@codymoe4986]

Since you are here, one could assume that you've heard of the internet? Fun Fact: You can use it to multitask, plan ahead, etc...maybe sharpen your snark by using it to verify information before posting "country dumb" comments?

[@kowalski5599]

This channel shares old videos of stars who are in the news currently. Maybe they have a new TV show or a new movie, maybe they've died. Have to be living under a rock to not hear about the new Beverly Hills Cop 4 movie that was just released. If you're that uninformed: don't vote.
