I take it that this is before he fired Helen.

I guess this is when he started to become unfunny.

@08whitesoxluvr It's Leno's material that Leno wrote, and is pushing on Lettermans show.
Like all other Comedians, the host (Dave)is given questions to ask, so that the quest(jay in these cases) can promote his routine. Didn't you know that?

@TrailerParkUni You sure did rip him a new one.

Yeah, because Leno has a joke or story about travel. Leno has told Letterman beforehand to bring up the subject of his flight over because he has a story about it. That's the way it works, It is that simple.

No i know there is a format. He has the little card for topics... But come on the many times that Jay was on Letterman thats all he talked about
It's called a set up. Leno prearranges with Letterman what topics to bring up as to set Leno up for his jokes. If Letterman is only talking about flight and travel, it is because Leno has said he has a joke about travel, bring up the subject to lead into the joke. Oh! You thought it was a natural conversation, not a talk show format that has worked the same way for 50 years?
