The Irreplaceable David Letterman (And His Replacement Stephen Colbert)

When David Letterman gave up his seat behind the desk in 2015, people wondered over who would be able to fill in those shoes. The answer: Stephen Colbert. Based on two separate articles about both men, The Irreplaceable David Letterman, and The Late, Great Stephen Colbert, Ezra Zaid joins Lee Chwi Lynn in exploring the world of late night show hosting, how comedy flourishes in moments of discomfort, and how to navigate sea changes on our televisions.
