Project Dave (On hold) … TalkShow with Spike Feresten
I recently submitted a dream guest list to Spike Feresten which contained numerous celebrities that had… yet to appear… on the show.
One of which (and no doubt the hardest to book, scheduling, etc) was legendary talkshow host (and Spike’s former boss) David Letterman.
I was encouraged however in that my past years repeated lobbying of Spike to have on Adam Carolla, perhaps yielded some fruit….as the Aceman will indeed be on in March 2008 (show already taped) as he promotes the wide release of “The Hammer” movie.
So…… Spike always the smarty…. politely replies to my submission with… “I’ll have Dave on. Call him and set it up.”
seeing how I, as a regular person and not in the biz, would have like a 0.000001% chance of pulling this off, much less get a call through to Dave.
Dave has been on with Oprah (finally) and Conan and with Johnny Carson…and with Spike?
So…. stay tuned… I say Dave will be up for great fun in freaking out Spike…
More to come as the story develops.
**********************************************
On 2/16/2008 Spike gets around to telling me that the second season taping is wrapping and perhaps said challenge will be for late summer when season 3 would start.
Dave as first guest for season 3 ? quips Spike…
So… looks like all the fun is on hold til we know about the logistics of the show getting picked back up, etc.
So…once again..more on this as it becomes obvious.
