After 33 years and over 6,000 episodes of Late Night and Late Show with David Letterman combined, when the king of late-night talk shows took a bow in 2015 it seemed the party was over.

However, David Michael Letterman at age 70 is back with a six-part interview series on Netflix titled ‘My Next Guest Needs No Introduction‘ and staying true to the name his guest lineup really needs no introduction.

The first episode featured the 44th president of the United States of America, Barack Obama and while Pakistani activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai was rumoured to appear in the second installment of the show, it was later revealed that George Clooney was the guest on the new episode which comes out this Friday.

The rumour mills are not dying down and it is expected that the third episode of ‘My Next Guest Needs No Introduction’ will feature an interview with Malala.

Surprisingly while the Netflix audience knew Obama was the guest, during filming, the audience at Aaron Davis Hall at The City College New York was unaware who the surprise guest would be.

In a relaxed atmosphere, Barack and Letterman talk about family vacations, their children, books, what each is planning next and the 1960’s civil rights movement.

 

Interestingly, during the entire interview, Obama doesn’t take any jibes on Trump — which might disappoint viewers. However, he does talk about social media as opposed to mainstream media and also talks about how the internet will show results depending on an individuals bias.
