That was back when late night TV could be late night TV. Way to go, Dave, Paul, and the rest of Dave's team!

[@hinthegroove9740]

Paul and canned ham, those were the nights 😅

[@hinthegroove9740]

A lb of canned ham was a buck back then

[@MattTee1975]

The number on the Tom Brokaw card still works, in case anyone is looking for some catering.

[@bluebear1985]

Also, it's nice to see that Gorbachev managed to find some work after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It had only taken place about two weeks prior to this episode, so that didn't take long for him at all.😁

[@thelettermanpodcast]

Do they serve ham?

[@BearbearbearbearbearbearRarrrr]

Sometimes a saltine is all you need.

[@SESteve]

The question we're all asking: did everyone get some canned ham?

[@paulhammons7077]

😊I hope so

[@Bill-cv1xu]

Big ass ham...😂

[@catherinegigliotti1368]

I always loved the canned ham

[@hotlov72]

Interesting how they didn't blank out Tom Brokaws number but the rest they did lol

[@daveidmarx8296]

I used to love watching Dave every night in the 80s as just about every show was absolutely fascinating to watch, as this ridiculous six-minute slice proves.

[@jaymo8206]

Ahh the days before the internet ruined society. Glad we can still watch Dave on KZbin 😆😆😆

[@ruthecker399]

love dave miss him

[@Hogtownboy1]

Shaffer is the coolest uncool person

[@pauld.172]

Paul will always be the hippest man in show business in my book.

[@Hogtownboy1]

@@pauld.172 absolutely and one of best music producer ever. Plus writing it raining men.

[@johnperrigo6474]

That would make him cool.

Bryan Adams! 🇨🇦

[@brycemcneil4404]

This would have been two days before he opened his "Waking Up the World" tour in Sydney, NS.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

@@brycemcneil4404 and what a kick off it was!

[@SaintMartins]

Bryan Adams the pride if Vancouver, B.C. Canada & Paul Schaffer the pride of Thunder Bay, Ont. Canada

[@KickOutTheJams-u2h]

BOTH BRYAN AND PAUL WISH THEY WERE THAT YOUNG AGAIN !!

[@roryoutdoors5431]

Bryan Adams in the first clip? lol Actually that's a fancy dinner plaid he's wearing eh?

[@thelettermanpodcast]

Please be sensitive to those who delight in Canadian formal wear.

[@t23001]

Gorbachev retired to Caldwell, New Jersey and does landscaping. I can see that.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

Bryan Adams is a national treasure. Note: Our host is Canadian, so we are obligated to post the sentiment about Mr Adams. Its just easier. We'll never hear the end of it if we don't just do it. And with OUR host, that would mean annoyance on a level that simply isn't tolerable.

[@kenmckinnell8153]

Where have you gone, David Letterman? A nation turns it's lonely eyes to you.

[@janeltranmer2284]

200 pounds of canned ham, Dave!

[@thelettermanpodcast]

Also, interestingly, this isn't the only time Dave uttered the phrase, "Well, Mr McDouche, let's see." Note: yes it was.

[@casualobserver620]

Paul might have had a talent with the keyboard, but he was the neighborhood kid that would offer money to anyone that would play with him.

[@markhouston2468]

He's a musical genius. You are who >>>>??? Oh ya -no one !! lol

[@casualobserver620]

@@markhouston2468 I'm the guy that gets you worked up over a post !!~!!

[@pauld.172]

Ian would be 89 now.

[@jimmyjames2022]

Oh sure I'll take some ham and saltines with your bloopers, but more importantly, who's the guy with Bryan, is it Keith Scott?

[@MiddleMalcolm]

It is! 👍

[@natfunk5992]

RIP Paul Schaefer

[@thelettermanpodcast]

He had a good run. Also, this joke is getting old. So let's keep making it. One day it will be funny again.

[@bbbart77]

Dave's mom made fried ham sandwiches everyday for lunch, 40 years later they had to crack him open. Just saying!

[@S1L3NTG4M3R]

:)

[@thelettermanpodcast]

sup.

I never thought a sideman could be more obnoxious than Ed McMahon but I was wrong.
