## Resource

Standup comedian, novelist and comedy writer Bill Scheft spent 24 years as David Letterman’s confidante, right-hand man and head monologue writer, being nominated for 15 Emmys in the process. A few days after Dave’s farewell, Bill stopped by the studio to talk about his two-plus decades in late night and to regale Gilbert and Frank with hilarious showbiz tales about everyone from Larry David to Redd Foxx. Also, Bill pens jokes for the Oscars, praises the commitment of Martin Short and pays tribute to the British Invasion. PLUS: Slappy White! Larry “Bud” Melman! Bogie goes postal! The infamous “Uma, Oprah” bit! And Jerry Lewis sings The Who!https://www.gilbertpodcast.com/57-57-bill-scheft/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
