Blast From The Past: John Waters on "Letterman"

John Waters is always hilarious; he's so verbally deft and loquacious, I could listen to him talk all day; if you have a couple of hours to kill one Sunday afternoon, you owe it to yourself to check him out in all his glory - say, on one of his commentary tracks... Try Cecil B. Demented (2000).

You'll learn so much your ears will hurt.

Here then is the man himself, talking with vintage Letterman (c.1986) - back when Dave was still a real prick; watch and marvel as Letterman is manipulated by a better conversationalist. The highlight is their discussion, early in the interview, of Divine.
