| 10/10/25 | ![]() 180 Our Tribute To Longtime Staffer And Our Good Friend Arthur Kelly | Episode 180 – A Tribute to Arthur KellyEpisode 180 of The Letterman Podcast is a heartfelt tribute to our dear friend Arthur Kelly, who passed away around the Fourth of July.For 15 years, Arthur was the receptionist on the 12th floor of the Ed Sullivan Theater office building — Dave’s floor. His job was to be the gatekeeper: ensuring the right people and calls got through, while keeping the chaos of show business at bay so the brain trust could focus on making television magic.A few years into his tenure, something strange and wonderful happened — Arthur became an on-air personality. In a recurring segment dubbed “Coach’s Corner,” he portrayed a hilariously unhinged version of football Hall of Famer Mike Singletary, barking out locker-room-style motivation that instantly became a fan favorite.Arthur was also one of the first staff members to befriend Mike, and he holds a special place in the history of The Letterman Podcast. In this emotional conversation, Mike sits down with Arthur’s brother, Andre, as the two reminisce, share heartfelt stories, and reflect on the kindness, humor, and heart that Arthur brought into every room he entered.On behalf of everyone who considers themselves an enthusiast of the broadcasts released by David Letterman and Company, we extend our deepest condolences to Arthur’s family, and to his Late Show family, whom he cared for so deeply.We would also like to thank Worldwide Pants for allowing us to include a few classic clips of Arthur from Late Show with David Letterman in this tribute.Stop by Hello-Deli.com — the only place to find official Late Show merchandise, brought to you by the legendary Rupert Jee.And while you’re at it, give this episode a like, share it with a fellow fan, subscribe to the show, and leave a kind word or two — we’ll take all the positive reinforcement we can get. | — | ||||||
| 10/3/25 | ![]() Andrea Engelsberg Ordered Lunch From The Soup Nazi For The Letterman Writers, And It Was Awesome | Episode 179 of The Letterman Podcast features Andrea Engelsberg — a former Late Show with David Letterman intern who had a front-row seat to the magic during one of the show’s hottest eras.In what feels like a nostalgic sugar rush, Mike and Andrea (who snack on candy throughout the episode) dive into her journey as a dual U.S./Canadian citizen who landed the coveted internship during the “last hurrah” of an era where most of the Late Night staffers who had made the jump to Late Show were still on board. Andrea soaked in every incredible moment from the inside.From hilarious tales of her chaotic New York living situation to legendary behind-the-scenes memories, Andrea shares it all — including the time she braved the line at the Soup Nazi to grab lunch for the entire Late Show writing team. And then there’s the unforgettable story of how a sprinting David Letterman, in his pre-show adrenaline ritual, collided with Andrea in the hallway… resulting in a brand-new staff rule.It’s a joyfully unfiltered, candy-coated romp through one of the most exciting chapters in late night history — all from someone who was lucky enough to live it.Then: • A sweet shoutout to our only sponsor, Hello-Deli.com — still the only place on the planet (and the web) to grab official Late Show merch from Rupert Jee, Letterman’s favorite deli man. • Followed by our traditional plea to like, share, subscribe, and leave a glowing comment… or even a lukewarm one (we’ll take it — it still helps with the algorithm). | — | ||||||
