Welcome to the Letterman RUclips Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. These highlights have been artisanally-produced, carefully-curated, and chosen completely at random by an old computer that used to pick numbers for the New York Lotto back in the 90’s.
I always loved John’s visits with Dave. So funny, and clearly a great friendship and rapport between the two.
LMFAOOO “I make my own grandchildren” lmmfaooooo that is a classic line.
Dave was The Godfather to Witherspoons Son. Dave was also his John’s best man at his wedding.
RIP Witherspoon. Naturally funny man!!
I read John was Harry's godfather so I'll have to research that again.
I’ve heard that they were like brothers, and I wish that Dave would share some of those personal stories.
I believe in 1987 John was on. After the set, he showed his recent wedding pictures.
I know they went all the way back to the Comedy Store days together.
I always laugh remembering when he says he is a 'multi-thousandaire'!! LOL
Dave was so loyal to the comedians who came up as the same time as him. Jimmie Walker, Tom Dreesen, George Wallace and John Witherspoon all got to perform on Dave’s show, in front of millions of people. Thank you Dave!
"I make my own grandchildren!" 😆😁 Hilarious
Witherspoon's delivery is hilarious by itself!
🙏🏽RIP John Witherspoon 🙏🏽 Laughter truly is the best medicine ! Thank you for sharing !!
Happy Heavenly Birthday Mr Witherspoon! 🙏🏿R.I.P.
😂 I love these two.
"I make mynown grandchildren". 🤣🤣🤣
Pops is/was a fool.
"Public enema? What the hell's a public enema, anyway?"
Anyone have any context on why the crowd and both John and Dave got excited and the nervous laughter when Thanksgiving was mentioned?
That’s what I was wondering too
Wondering that too. There must be a super-fan here who knows the backstory.
He was hilarious on a Thabksgiving scene in the Eddie Murphy movie Boomarang. It's what he was most well known for by most casual audiences at the time
“I DON’N’T know about “Happening”!
David was the best man at John’s wedding, and is the godfather of his two sons. The oldest is partially named after him: John David
“Pops” on the Wayans Brothers!
Bang Bang Bang
That is probably my most memorable scene from him
I never knew they were best friends...
I checked. This is a real one. John Witherspoon is deceased. He has shuffled off the mortal coil.
They were best friends, weren’t they? So sad. I think Dave is John’s son’s godfather.
I have a big appetite not my problem i have a small brain .that energy is awsome 👌 😎😎❤️❤️❤️
I miss this dude
We'll be right back with Days of the New.
Who's ever running this channel? Do you have the clip when John does stand-up on Letterman before talking a seat & talks about Brent Marsh, not by name. Brent was the funeral director were 350 decomposing bodies were found in a GA crematorium. Not a laughing matter but John Witherspoon was hilarious on this night.
Funnyyyy!
Thank you very much.

However, that's David Alan Grier, who is thankfully still with us. I've always felt Grier deserves so much more credit and recognition for what a great comedian he is...
Mr.Jones
Oh please, not the thong! I'll always remember that skit.
Mr. Jones? Here?
Still deceased.
