Appearing on The Barbara Gaines Show Tuesday, Letterman who helmed the show 1982 to 1993 before moving to CBS said he was standing squarely behind his successor. I've never been more proud of Seth Meyers, he said. That's our old show, as a matter of fact. Yeah, we used to do that show, and he does a magical job.
Meyers noted the incredible balance Alexi Ashe maintained during her commencement speech as both a professional and a mother, demonstrating the duality of her roles. He said, 'She just had this incredible balance of like, 'I'm a professional woman, and now I'm gonna speak to my experiences in the world.' But also, you never can stop being a mom.'
