Interview0 Comments

Buscemi appears as a guest for the first time on The Late Show with David Letterman to talk about how he almost got into the show in 1994. He also shares his experience being a New York fireman during his early days as a stand-up comic.

Engine 55 is on Broome Street, and so we covered Little Italy and Chinatown and Soho and the Lower East side. Certainly in the early 80s it was probably busier than it is now, but I missed the heyday of when it was super busy in like the 60s and 70s.

I try to tell him the scene before, so he should go to the bathroom or something, because it’s uncomfortable. But the sex scene he was most uncomfortable was MacGruber.

McFarlane does a stand-up comedy performance on The Late Show with David Letterman. Her routine talks about a veal-loving vegan, her inability to remember names of people, and the struggles of being married.

Speaking of prison, I’m married. This is my 8th and final year. It is so much harder than I thought it would be. I used to think we’d

a divorce, but then we got life insurance, so now it’s more of a waiting game.
