Welcome to the Letterman TH-cam 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. The language may strike you as quaint & flowery, the clothing comically lacey & ornate - but that’s how things were back in this colorful and now bygone era. - บันเทิง
I was on the next version of Let’s Look for Swedes. If only The Donz could direct the forces that be to post it from Oct. 6, 1992.
If anyone's curious, the guest is Letitia Baldrige. Among other things, she was an advisor to Clare Booth Luce, ambassador to Italy. Fascinating woman.
I'm just about 100% sure Dave Carter is Swedish.
Letitia Baldrige was also private secretary for Jackie Kennedy.
How fortunate that Dave encountered an Italian ‘in the wild’ on a night when his guest happened to be fluent in Italian!
Dave's looking for swedes, sees a pretty italian and changes the game name, so Dave :D
I remember watching this. Still funny. The genuine smiles plus silliness do more good for humanity than the world knows. I hope all the interviewees are all doing well with life.
I miss this show!... It was the best!
“Let’s Look for Swedes” was originally a talk show bit from the 1930s, but they found that it didn’t play as well over the radio … and the outcome was far less comical once the Swede was located.
I loved this time, late ‘80s/early ‘90s. Peak of my life & I didn’t even know it. Being a kid then was the best.
i used to enjoy watching David Letterman in the 90s even at 12 pm in the night
"Her shots are up to date?"😂
Another fun segment. Love you Dave💋
We all know why Dave picked Daniella lol
I'm eating beefaroni right as I'm watching this!
_Have a tooth ache and it was the easiest to eat right now._

I saw this the night it aired; I spent junior high and high school in Omaha and thought, “Yep, those girls are definitely from Omaha.”
And if I remember right, it’s one of the states where the scandinavians immigrated, like MN, WI, NE, and the rest around there, and they still look Nordic (and Germanic, not just because of the hair but the faces too) despite probably being descendants thereof sooo 🤷🏻♀️
@@Cassxowary All true. About a quarter of the girls in my high school looked like those two.
She could have been from New York, and he would have still brought her up
Dave is such a horndog. She is gorgeous though
Reminds me of the time I rode up a hotel elevator once that was full of a batch of beautiful, blonde, Swedish stewardesses.
Bellissimo...
Dave in Ft Collins, Colorado USA
Dave is the best!
Beefaroni!!! Perfecto prize 🏆 for the Italian tourist who has no idea what is going on.
This would still be a good late night comedy show bit today.
This is the type of stuff I miss that Dave used to do. Today someone would probably accuse a show of being racist, homophobic, or sexist for doing bits like this. They’re funny! Almost any humor is going to offend SOMEone. That’s why it’s funny! It’s irreverent and unexpected.
Oh stop
Great stuff.
You didn't find any swedes, but a swede found you.
And it took 31 years or 16 hours depending on how you look at it.
He most likely found descendants of them, the two sisters from Omaha, NE
@@Cassxowary Possibly.
Beauty!
We have that game over here in Sweden too. 🤣
Dave sure knows how to pick winners 😂
If only Jordan was there for the Italian girl 😅
"That's alright, we're playing 'Let's Look for Italian's" LOL
Yeah... we do this in Sweden as well. Go out looking for other Swedes, but usually settle for an Italian girl (or who ever shows up) instead 😁
God what a looker!
god .. I miss dave ...
I bet that was a bus full of Swedes!
Great bit. Looking for Swedes/Italians/Beautiful ladies.
My wife looked over and asked me why Letterman looks like he is on the Simpsons. So we pulled up a pic of him on the Simpsons and yeah, almost the same shade of yellow.
Hilarious
I remember watching this, my heart raced when that German chick said her name
I would love to know what’s up with the beautiful Italian girl today if she ever came back to nyc
not all Swedes have blonde hair and blue eyes -- but you can find some in northern Italy
Right, that's something Europeans don't understand or know..l had a friend he was blonde from north Italy looked like any Scandinavian. There're many blonde in middle east and Kurdistan as well. For example kurds have blonde, blue and green eyes but mixed in few hundred years with Arabs, turkish..when they attacked and moved to those places.. Anyway not only Europeans or Scandinavians are totally blonde, but many of them are because they don't mixed that much with another nationalities! Some Swedish have dark blonde hair and brown eyes!
Scandinavian are more racist than Germany nowadays.. They have white power kind of movement and they demonstrating without shame on the street with police protection!!
I just want to ad something on your comment, personally I'm spiritual l don't care what nationality, race... Because we all are one, no matter if you believe in that or not!!
@@Angel-nb2fnthey’re not racist even if you found some that are
And yes we are all one, human and nonhuman animals, and all, are earthlings, and even elsewhere we still have similarities
Oh Dave... you big silly.
IKEA furniture is the best. You always end up with extra wooden dowels.
I actually had multiple damaged ones once so I was short one or two. Luckily, I managed to find some in my relative's basement.
Funny that he asked, have you ever seen a green Datsun. that was our first car in the 70s. I thought it was the only one in the world
I believe he said dachshund.
That's like trying to find an Italian in Montreal. It used to have the highest population of Italians in any city that isn't Rome.
Except Montreal Italians (as opposed to Romans) don’t know how to build roads.
@@dinosaursr Every time I've been to Montréal has been during some sort of Pothole Festival. Actually as soon as I cross the river.
@@m1t2a1 yes, and they repair the potholes by turning them into bumps.
@@dinosaursr But beer costs less there...
Little Italy! Well mostly? And LaSalle, and others probably
Mr. Autry passed in 1998.
Viewer Request Let's Play "What's in the bag"?
The US is full of Swedes, how couldn't they find a single one 😂
La Guardia, incoming Minnesota flights. But, Swedes are known for being reclusive, or at least non-inclusive?
It wasn't hard to find Italians in NY. That's kind of like looking for Catholics in the Vatican.
Hi Dave!
Let's look for..... Blondes!
Beefaroni.
I play this game in real life. Great way to pickup ladies.
Do you also catch Italians?
First Swede? Hejsan hejsan!
Är jag andra?
I'm a swede
cool
We know
You should have looked Swedish men.
Damn she is fine
So stupid.Who cares what this letterman does?
Would "Let's look for Africans" be racist?🤔
Not any more or less than this was.
Well Africa is a diverse continent so yes it would
They don't look like that in Sweden anymore thanks to the eu policy of taking refugees that your country is not responsible for
Liar.
Nice to see your lobotomy was a complete success bubba.
@@gerardodwyer5908 take a trip there and see for yourself
@@gerardodwyer5908 it appears yours failed .. they removed everything
