"The following message is for all the people named Bob in the Letterman Channel’s office… “HI, BOB!”
Anyway, the recent April Fools’ switch of the two Jimmy’s in late night reminded me that there was an episode of the Late Show back in the early years where Dave changed his name to “Jimmy Letterman”. I would love to see some highlights of that episode. I think the “Jimmy” name even had its own theme song."
Yours sincerely,
Fard Muhammad
(From "Late Show," air date: 10/24/95)

That awkward period when Dave wore contacts instead of glasses

Jimmy is such a silly name. What kind of self-respecting late night host would call themselves Jimmy?

Love you, Dave! I mean, Jimmy! 🤟💞

My cat’s name is “Jimi” and he’s flipping out.

I've remembered the Raitts' performance, and I"ve certainly watched Norm's segment many times. However, I did not remember the "Jimmy" era. Funny how memory works.
