My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman -- Netflix

Re: My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman (Netflix) premieres 1/12
This week Kanye West taped an interview with David Letterman for an upcoming episode of the latter’s Netflix talk show, Vulture has confirmed. Multiple sources say Ye and Dave chatted Monday in Los Angeles, with one person who was in the audience saying a big portion of the conversation revolved around both men’s mental health. (Letterman has talked openly about dealing with depression since at least 2012, while West spent a big chunk of 2018 more vaguely discussing his own mental condition in various forums.) A Netflix rep declined to confirm the Letterman-West powwow, but in addition to Vulture’s sources, anecdotal evidence of the encounter has started popping up on social media.
Users on both Instagram and Twitter have shared pictures of themselves with West and Letterman, as well as tickets from the event, which appears to have been taped at the Nate Holden Performing Arts Center in L.A.’s Mid-City district. The audience members also noted that Kim Kardashian West was in attendance, which follows a tweet from New York Times comedy correspondent Jason Zinoman earlier this week hinting at the get-together (tagged #rumormill). There’s no word yet on when the first episodes of the new season of Letterman’s My Next Guest Needs No Introduction will premiere, though Vulture hears Letterman has already taped at least one other interview for season two and that the series should return by this summer.
Letterman’s post-CBS show debuted last January and featured interviews with Barack Obama, George Clooney, and Tina Fey, among others. The streamer officially confirmed a green light for season two last month, though Netflix execs had said much earlier they wanted more episodes from Letterman.

This love Dave and will watch him do,anything but I found almost all these interviews to be uninteresting
the Obama and Seinfeld shows we’re ok but even the Stern one was pretty ordinary.
is there anyone interesting left to interview? Surely not West talking about his crazy brain.

Some conversations leave you speechless. My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman returns for a second season welcoming another round of guests Letterman finds fascinating. This season, Dave sits down with Kanye West, Ellen Degeneres, Tiffany Haddish, Lewis Hamilton and Melinda Gates for in-depth conversations, combining humor and curiosity. All five episodes of the Netflix talk show series will be streaming on Netflix beginning May 31, 2019.

I would argue that, at least in the United States, Lewis Hamilton needs an introduction.

Wow, I would watch Dave interview anybody but that’s an extremely disappointing list of guests considering we get only 5 episodes and the long wait between seasons. Not even close to as good as season one and he didn’t just go with big stars in season one. Not even a Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Steve Martin or just about anybody in the big celebrity category? I mean he had Fey, Stern AND Clooney in season one. Haddish hasn’t done nearly enough to distinguish herself yet. I didn’t think I would be this disappointed when they finally announced the guests but I am.
Seems like Letterman is almost making a point this year of going outside the box just because he’s already a legend and can do what he wants. I would be fine with that if this was 7 episodes and we got a star or two, especially the ones he’s been close with or if we got 5 episodes every few months or something like that.

I envy you.
She's kind of blown up in the past two years, starting with Girl's Trip. She's in everything now, like the female Kevin Hart in that way.

Haddish wasn't in What Men Want was she?

That list does nothing for me. Maybe I'm just getting old as I honestly don't know who Tiffany Haddish and Lewis Hamilton are? Ellen Degeneres would probably be the only one I would be interested in.

I doubt Letterman knows who Tiffany Haddish is either.

I have not been a fan of the crabby and angry version of Letterman that has been around for the last decade plus, and Lewis Hamilton is probably the only one of these interviews I'm remotely interested in. The rest are an easy pass. As semi-reclusive as he is, I wonder why he is even bothering with this endeavor if this is the quality of guests he is going to get.

I heard a lecture once about how major cardiac surgery requiring a heart-lung machine, while life-saving, cannot perfectly perfuse the brain as well as the heart and lungs can. The brain is such a sensitive and oxygen-hungry organ that even the briefest, slightest disruption or deprivation can permanently change a person's personality. After both had major heart surgeries performed, David Letterman and Bill Clinton seemed to changed their personalities and became more cranky and less tolerant than before.

I’m sure she has some sort of gripping rags to riches story, and she certainly appeals to a lot of people for whatever reason, but from what I’ve seen she’s unremarkable in every way imaginable.

Well, I guess Dave interviews who Dave wants to interview...it's the only reason Lewis Hamilton would be picked (Letterman is a major Formula 1 fan).
