I met David at a book signing. I was with my young son of 17 and he was most gracious to us both. He signed my sons books and one book he drew a pussy cat in one go without lifting the pen off the page. Then he chatted to us about how he collects all these chocolates from all the hotels he stays in, then he reaches into his bag and gives us a chocolate each! Very pleasant gentleman.
David is more awesome than words 😀 Stay #Blessed🔥 and happy always ❤️❤️😘♾️🕉️🖖👽♾️
I saw Mr. Sedaris from across a room one time. It felt like seeing your favorite aunt at the door with a sack of donuts on Saturday morning. He is a guru. His books are the ones for the desert island, the hospital waiting room, the flight to Scotland.
You should write, you are much more funny than Mr.Sedaris.- RIP Tiffany Sedaris. * I disagree with you he certainly is no guru. He has been lucky , considering the fact that he picks up trash and then writes about it and people foam - not a person who I would want to have sitting across from me ever. Imho he is certainly creepy. Nothing funny about this sociopath .
I agree with you Pesterlig. I would adore to be in the presence of David Sedaris. Having read all his books (then mostly all again in audio) I feel I know him & what makes him laugh makes me laugh. His outlook on life is refreshingly honest, warts & all and at almost his age I wish I'd had some of his insights earlier in life. Other comments may describe him negatively but I only have praise for this peach of an author. Viva Sedaris!
Oregonblueberry awwww, someone needs attention. His entire family is humorous he just happens to be the one with the ability to put it to paper and regularly achieve top sales. He’s also a talented raconteur.
No Louis - you are incorrect I get all the attention I need and then extra on the good days. Shoot dude I just have a very different opinion and who knows I have friends that were in Elan with his sister Tiffany - I know what that place did to her and it was criminal.
So just because I have a difference of opinion at least have enough respect to my reasons which are based in facts , not on the fact that you think this freak is funny . So that is just my opinion based on the facts as I read 'em here.
Enjoy yer day .
I read Calypso whilst I was in the hospital this past week and it made time pass so much quicker.
More writers, less actors
I second that...
Third!
Why not..... both!!!??
...fewer?
yes, pleeeeease!
"But they give women babies!! How is that fair?......" LMAO
It's never a dull interview when David Sedaris is on.
This guy is an amazing storyteller, bloody hell...
Didn't know who he was upon watching this, but he does know how to pick out and deliver a story. Wonderful timing and interaction. Curious now about his writing.
David Sedaris is sort of a kinder, gentler Truman Capote.
Me DotOrg David Sedaris is sort of a gayer, gentile Woody Allen.
...gentile Woody Allen
Lmao!!! Nailed it
I love the way his brain works, I can't wait to read his new book!
I know, right? He sees the most simple things in such a bright and hilarious way. A true gem.
Dany I always get the audio version because I love hearing him read it in his own voice.
I just finished it and loved it. I think it may be his best yet
Great writer, great mind, hilarious delivery… National treasure
Two of my favourite celebrities on the one show. Both hyper excellent.
David Sedaris is crazy, and that is why I love his writing. I've seen one of his shows, and damn, it was funny, hope to see him again sometime!
For the past like 2 weeks Stephen has been hanging on by a thread and at 5:01 he let go. Laugh out loud my precious!
moonwalkingthroughlife ...if he had a mouthfull if milk, oh my!
Writers and comedians see the world in more ways than one. Love it.
Met him. A superb guy. Kind, unpretentious, funny as hell. Great writer.
I got to see him a few weeks ago and the full graduation speech is amazing.
He is a delight! Please Stephen, book more of this kind of people. The world needs more eccentrics!!
Katrin Stoffel Yes!
Good because I want to feed it to a snapping turtle. I fell out of bed laughing.
Funny certainly runs in that family.. one of my all time favorite people.
New Message he has perfect poise and comedic timing! I've read all 9 of his books and I'm still excited to read the new one. That's rare for me. Lol
New Message - Mine too.
Jessica DeNittis - You, not so much!
Jessi Gingivitis, nah what? Are you making a comment or just banging your face on the keyboard? Don't forget your safety helmet Messica 😆 and don't swallow anything sharp hun 😉
Jessica DeNittis 😂😂😂
Sorry I have a very different opinion of this person. I find him very creepy indeed- www.fornits.com/phpbb/index.php/topic,44069.0.html - more than creepy - Actually people get "lipomas " regularly . funny how he brings up the house in N.
C- again. He needs to write about Elan-
Sedaris is quite popular in Great Britain. I've heard more of him on BBC Radio than on Public Radio here in the US.
Every time I read 'Me talk pretty one day' it has me in stitches. He is brilliant. Can't wait for the new book!
my favorite book! "Is thems the thoughts of cows?" I really can relate as an introvert living in a foreign country. I speak like an evil baby all the time hahaha
He truly is Amy's brother.
socrappyicoulddie no, other way ‘round.
That's funny because I've never seen Amy so I think of her as "David's sister."
Actually, Amy truly is David’s sister
I couldn't pick Amy Sedaris out of a lineup
They’re brilliantly funny and have great legs.
His book NAKED is still one of the funniest books I've ever read
I was reading it on a bus and laughed out loud, and people looked at me-- I just held up the book and blushed. Several people read the title/author and just nodded. I love David Sedaris, he's way too funny and I love his delivery
delfin7461 same experience here: I was reading Naked at a coffee shop and was nearly on the floor dying of laughter. Embarrassing...
I was in a diner the first time I read Me Talk Pretty One Day and I was laughing so hard I had tears streaming down my face. I think the waitstaff was concerned.
I think it's his best although Me Talk Pretty One Day is higher-rated. I don't know why it's higher-rated because it's not as funny.
I'll have what he's wearing is my favorite story from that book. My sides hurt from my laughter.
I am a fan. He’s one of our greats!
David is the best. My god, how I laughed when I last saw him talk about his work. So good for the soul.
I love David Sedaris so much. I got to see him speak at a local event, and he was absolutely brilliant.
🤣🤣🤣 I don't know who this guy is- but I love him 🤣🤣🤣
einat1622, check out his self narrated audio books! Just be ready to nearly wet yourself laughing.
I literally just came to this to see him, and have a face to the name on the books I've read, but hes so funny and charming, i just HAD to watch the entire interview.
David Sedaris is a sublime comedic genius.
Consistently original and deadly funny. Good call Stephen - how about double-tagging him with Amy?
Brilliant writer. Love him!
I love David’s Crumpett the Elf around the holidays.
Genevieve Go see the play too!
lockergr there’s a play?! I need to see it!
JUST finished listening to his book on Audible and it was a riot from beginning to end. 👍🏻
I seriously can’t wait to see him 20 minuets from me! Oberlin is so lucky to have someone like Mr hysterical! Love it!
Reading his new book, Carnival of Snackery: Diaries 2003-2020... and it's a pretty good load of his best humor. He actively seeks out weirdness and then comments on it - day after day after day. The book is comprised of the entries he finds funny or interesting. His commentary is exactly like what he says in this interview with Colbert. You can't see what's coming.
Thank you David Sedaris. You just put a hilarious end on a long day!
I LOVE David Sedaris! He's hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing through this whole interview. Such wise advice!
We need more Sedaris in times like these. National Treasure.
Agreed. And we must #ProtectDavidSedarisAtAllCosts🔥❤️❤️😘❤️🕉️🖖👽♾️🔥
Amen David Sedaris...Love you!!!
I lie awake nights, when I have trouble sleeping, ranking people I want to have drinks with. David Sedaris is always top 5.
Who are the others?
Met him three times! He's so so lovely
He is the funniest person. I'm going to need this book in my life.
You gotta wonder what it's like when he and his sister are together...
rockets4kids Read his books. They're kind of short-stories-memoirs with some artistic licence. My favourite is a childhood memory of too many snow days so their mother sent them out to play & locked them out the house (I think he has 4 siblings. .. or is 1 of 4). Somehow a neighbour takes them home because they convince the youngest sister to lie in the middle of a road... I haven't ruined anything because that's definitely not the full story. I also love his collection of observations from when he was an elf at Macy's in NYC one xmas. His books are fantastic.
Can never get enough David Sedaris!
he is so awesome! i'm now listening to his books on audible read by him - next, i have to see him perform live!
He's so damned weird. In other words, I'm buying his book!
Love this man.
It's totally not fair David. You deserve to get every bit of your tumour back.🤣🤣🤣
I remember hearing this on his Radio 4 (BBC) show. Find it if you can. It’s amazing.
I love those Sadar-i.... Makes me proud to be a NC Boy....living in Ma...
Omg I'm dyinggggg!!!!!
Love you El Paso, Texas.
This person is a genius.
OMFG, I love this guy.
David Sedaris is a comedy/humor GOD!
what a hilarious man ,I love him!
I remember his sister Lisa and her parrot!!!
I love this guy. Read his books!
Lovely man, great guest.
1:10-1:15 Starling murmuration personified through human laughter
David Sedaris is a genius. Keeps me laughing even though I have read his stories over and over.
Big Boy is one of my faves 😂🤣❤️🤘🤘
Yippee! A new David sedaris book. Can’t wait to read it. He may think he looked good at 22 but I think he looks great at 60.
oh my god. i love him immediately
I LOVE this guy ! Ordered the new book yesterday .
I saw him in a bookstore in LR a few years ago. He signed my book “ My Doctor Friend Angie! He told me to go to Australia, I could make a lot of money there! Haha! He is a trip!
The best interview in my whole life 🤣🤣🤣
I cracked my ribs last night and I'm hurting. This video made me laugh so hard I might have to go to the E.R. I love him!
LMMFAO inadvertent comment Stephen made about his mom pulling for him
I feel like "Theft by Finding" just came out. Can't believe he's got another book already.
I want to be in their family. Such a funny lot.
Gotta love this guy, so funny!
I love that Stephen and David have known each other for decades.
David Sedaris’s stories might as well be zen koans. Brilliant.
I like him even more. Love from Chicago & Ashland Avenues Misters S. & C.
what a delight!!
That was great! I want his books now. Lol
FreethinkingSecularist They’re amazing!
. . ."pullin' for yah" . . .a rare moment when Steven picks the wrong words .
6:51 David Sedaris drinks from the mug to keep from laughing along with Colbert. He's a pro.
David wth are you wearing? I mean that sparkly number underneath that jacket needs to be showcased more properly!!
I'm pretty sure that's the only grown man in shorts I've ever seen sitting in that chair
just like a LEGEND
It's Comme des Garcons Homme Plus Spring Summer 2018 collection, the whole outfit is.
Buying his book right now!!!
“You could do that.” So could I, but he thought of it first.
So funny love all his books!
Brilliant guy and obviously shy.
My daughter asked the ENT for her tonsils in 1986, he put a note on them, we picked them up, she took them to school frequently. My sister who was a teacher borrowed them occasionally, for the "guess what this is" part of grade school.
When I watch your show I frequently discover there are weirder people than I.
When I read comments addressed directly to the busy famous person in the video, it always sort of puzzles me
God, I love this dude!
omg what i just heard made me happy
Last time he told that story, the snapping turtles had all gone into hibernation when he brought the tumour back. So he put it in the freezer. Nice to see the turtle ended up liking it.
David Fudging Sedaris, My favourite author/comedian
WTF? His middle name is Raymond
“Holidays on Ice” is the best cure for SAD ever.
I love him
I want this book!
One of best funny author out there. Littéralement.
This man is crazy. With a beautiful soul. But crazy
I've read all his books but never heard his voice before... 🤔😅 I should have guessed, lol, but I was totally not ready!😂😂😂
Yeah, I think he mentions in one of his books that people on the phone always assumed he was a woman or a little kid.
Alex Peraza yeah, it's just strange to hear someone after years of putting my own voice to the books I've read. .. and then be totally off. I've heard many interviews with his sisters on NPR and even his boyfriend and parents etc. I suppose I shouldn't be so surprised, but tbh my David Sadaris voice sounds way different😅😅
He always narrates his books for the audio version..... best way to "read" them!
Mari Hawley could do. 😅 I'm a huge reader though and can't really take books on tape. So slow. Lol. What I sometimes do is use the text to speech on my books and use the British female voice at 200 speed😂
Yes - great idea! Giving a little bit back (albeit not directly, unless he usually eats snapping turtle soup...in which case it could get a bit meta, like if he ate the wee beastie later :D
National treasure
A national treasure
Now I want to read his books. -- laughed so hard at this, so smart and weird and funny. Loved when Stephen cracked up, plus two Freaudian stumbles.
Ben W you have to read some. Funniest books ever.
he is the best
I liked before listening and I wasn't wrong!
