Dave fan with far too much time on his hands.

How I acquired and digitized every Late Night with David Letterman show.

@tpstoner1 @Sut_40 @Dodgers Someone else approached me about this. I supplied a Wiki list of all DR guest-host spots. I have just one from 1974. Odds are very poor that that’s the one.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@rhenagullee Nope, never did.

@tweetbrowser81 I’m reminded of the first words in Rolling Stone’s review of Dylan’s “Self Portrait” release:

“What is this shit?”

I’m going with Walter White’s “Say my name” scene:

“What you’re making is tepid, off-brand, generic cola. What I’m making is Classic Coke.”

Oh, the power I weld, sometimes for good.

@tweetbrowser81 I share your sentiments and have expressed my concerns. I understand they’re quite aware that longtime fans are disgusted at this “new direction” by its new partners, Merzigo. (Including me.)

I don’t know what happens next; it’s not my call.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@MoyKyra Unfortunately, I can’t share any Dave-owned or -licensed content anymore. That’s been in effect since February 2022, which was after that tweet.

Last year CBS took down the full 9/17/01 show (the first LS after 9/11). I've uploaded it in wetransfer. Here's the download link; it'll expire in a week.

@kianworld I don’t understand it either. I use the simple HandBrake application to convert 16:9 to 4:3.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@kianworld The arrangement took effect July 1. I’m not nuts about the gratuitous and pointless hype in the titles and descriptions. Either AI or some 22-year-old who doesn’t know the brand.
I’ve expressed my concerns. Hopefully they’ll tone it down.

@CONELRAD6401240 Should read “Chicks dig senators.”

@harryhew I did, thanks, and just played it back again!
I emailed Steve and Jim and thanked them both. Told them if only Dave were still there to remind them of the still-active ankle bracelet.

@tweetbrowser81 This’ll have to do — a YT Playlist of my favorite uploads.

YouTube thread of the week. And it’s only Monday.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@tweetbrowser81 Very uncomfortable answering that.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@tweetbrowser81 Dave and Costas have never had any business connections.
whoaskedforit@gmail is the Request email for the Letterman YT channel.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@tweetbrowser81 Thanks! The channel’s still there. It includes some Costas and Snyder (and one Snyder on Costas). I can’t add additional Dave-owned or -licensed content w/o permission. That went into effect when the official Dave channel launched in Feb. ‘22.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@pactenboy @wjcarter Crazy busy, consumed with two ginormous projects.

[Don Giller @thedonz5]

@CONELRAD6401240 @HowardMortman Not claiming you’re wrong, but I can’t find it.
