Summary
Episode 173 of The Letterman Podcast is a spontaneous mashup for the ages!Mike was about to appear on The Alex Bennett Program when his phone rang. On the other end? None other than former Late Show with David Letterman executive producer Robert “Morty” Morton. When Mike told him what he was about to do, Morty asked, “Can I join?” — and just like that, this one became too big for just one show.What followed was a spirited, thoughtful, and wildly entertaining three-way conversation. Alex and Mike both asked Morton about his time working with Letterman, as well as his take on current events — including expert insight on the unfolding situation at CBS and Stephen Colbert’s future at The Late Show.The spontaneity made it even more special, and we’re thrilled to share this unique crossover experience with our audience.And speaking of legendary institutions, don’t forget to visit Hello-Deli.com — still the only place on the internet to grab official Late Show with David Letterman merchandise, proudly run by Rupert Jee himself!If you enjoy the show, we’d be thrilled if you’d like, share, subscribe, and leave a positive comment.
