In both of these segments its heart warming to see Dave's facial expressions as he hangs onto every word. Don says with excitement They were truly two friends.
"There goes the Last DJ, who played what he wanted to play, and said what he wanted to say..." T Petty, Last DJ. A true American original. Thanks, Don, great post as always..
@@jabarithomas7290 If you were a regular listener to the Imus In The Morning Program, you'd know that Don Imus played Martin Luther King Jr's "I have a dream" speech every year on the date of Dr. King's death.
Notice the difference in Letterman's reaction to interviewing Imus and Stern; laughs it up with the former, stoic with the latter. Quite the dichotomy.
What a talent--so funny and intelligent--and how sad that in late career and late life he turned into a bitter, not funny, right-wing Trumper. But from, say, 1990 through 1998, the Imus in the Morning Program was the best satirical operation in American entertainment since the Sid Caesar gang.
When the scales of judgement are balanced, I’m quite certain Imus relieved more suffering and sparked more joy than he contributed to the suffering. Before the haters judge, perhaps they should consider where they are themselves on the scale!
He was from a different time, like Dr. Demento. That kind of radio voice is extinct, very aware of itself, and sarcastic. Gary Owens was my hero. He had a warmth alongside his weirdness. Imus was snarky, and ultimately a mean person.
@@dongiller I just saw the video for the first time this morning. Don, Fred and Bernie are gone. I believe Charles is still alive. No one would ever dare to do what he did at The Correspondents Dinner in 96 when he went after the Clintons (who were both there) and everyone else. He even described it as a train wreck and that some of the most putrid jokes that night were written by Charles and Bernie.
I WILL miss Don Imus😢. He was one of my FAVORITE personalities on radio and TV.

Don Imus helped thousands of kids have a better life - it's what you do not what you say
I love how these 2 legends make each other heartily laugh
Great guy what a giver to those less fortunate rip amen 🙏

"He wants to eat and get babes"
RIP Iman and Fred. Thanks
I discovered I-Man in 1992 driving to NY and found 66am.
Loved Larry Kenney and 'Bill from White Plains' aka Mike Breen.
I miss hearing him on the radio.
he is on the radio, he changed his name to Howard Stern
These two are great together
I missed that man every day
Imus is the Morning!
Quack Quack!
They remind me a whole lot of each other.
Lived in NY in 1992 listened to him
Imus actually came across as a nice guy during his visits with Letterman
The number of talented, influential people who just don’t give a shit what people say or think is dwindling fast....RIP
Loved this guy
RIP Don Imus
RIP Don Imus.
He was a racist asshole. Radio is better now
Wow had no clue that he had died 😕
@@wusinger89 You know not of what you speak.
Two legends

@@MrKlemps Funny: he was anti-Trump after he ran in 2016 & regularly called him a nasty name to the end , to his discredit.
@@MrKlemps You assholes just cant keep Trump out of your heads.

well said
9pm l l lp l
@@HoosierGarage Amen!
Nah Imus is awful
100%
That's the most I have laughed at Late Night Television in years.
Great rendition of Steam by Peter Gabriel during the 1994 commercial break by the band.
Imus was the GOAT
When Don was Good..He was GREAT!!
Don Imus - Around The Dial. RIP
Great interview. Funny
Never realized, Don has a kinda Hunter Thompson thing going on with the way he talks.
I miss Imus!!!!!!
Late Night TV just isn't the same. This is hilarious
It's too political, they focus on a message over the comedy
Howard stern was probably so pissed that imus did letterman
I miss Imus in 2024
I miss the Iman!

Imus would have been happier staying on the booze and coke.
Didn’t Imus do a lot for kids with cancer ?
Two radio guys 😊
Imus killed it here.
One of the best
He so reminds me of a sober Hunter S Thompson!!
Paul Conway one could imagine a conversation between the two of them
PopCultureMoron I know, right?
Imus was entertaining in those days.
He still looked the same after all those yrs
Can you find the clips of Joe Biden on Imus
I don’t have them.
one wonders why, in the '94 appearance, he's not wearing a lapel mic.
Maybe there's some kind of mic elsewhere close by
Do you have the Howard stern appearance after this where he said it would be his last appearance because he had Imus on?
I’ll get to Stern, Part 2 next year.

Wish Sue Lyon had been on the show. :(
He makes Stern look like a child!
RIP Don.
Stern was seething at lettermans gushing over imus
Hey look it’s what Howard Stern has become!!!
Aha. The era of men wearing tennis shoes, jeans, tie and jacket. The ultimate schizophrenic dress ensemble. Glad that look burned out.
and there's been even more nonsensical combos before and after
I tried but never found him at all funny. Bur RIP.
I couldn’t listen to his program. He upset me a lot.
Oh ... now l get Howard Stern ...
Eff Stern. Not clever, just cheap, tawdry, smutty.
Actually, now I get Imus. Stern's a troll.
Imus dressed like kind of an awkward nerd.
