“Most bottoms should be felt” genius line!!
Long before Kendell Jenner or James Harden, Adidas turned to Barbara Gaines as their brand ambassador.

“Most bottoms should be felt.” A little foreshadowing, perhaps?”
its segments like these where i can clearly see the influence dave had on conan.

Dave had an influence on everybody, whether they had a talk show or not. He changed the comedic sensibility of the 80s.

that's what i was thinking as i watched it. i can see conan doing this and making the same jokes.
Dave was so original and irreverent. A legend.
History does not record the reaction of Brandon Tartikoff.
I love seeing these classic episodes of the Barbara Gaines Show!
“…all bottoms should be felt…” That went right by like the 5:00 express.😅

I loved how he had no respect for the network he was on. He knew they needed him more than he needed them.
not a bad guess... he was 42 when he shot this.

We need Dave back on TV. I don't care that he's 172 now. He needs to be back on TV.
lol Most "bottoms should be felt" He was really proud of himself for that one.
You won't get that on late night TV anymore. Thanks, Dave!
Happy Birthday Dave. You don't look a day over 80.
It’s just crazy how long Barbara has been putting up with Dave 😂

I think he inflated the profits for the network, a bit. General Electric was at $50~ Billion in 1989.
Adidas paid Barbara 100k to run that fast.
That is hilarious - although I’m sure that Brandon was not too pleased.
I need to know what exotic poultry looks like😂
I would have loved to see the follow up video giving this to Brandon.

Hey!
The guy tells him he looks 45 years old. He was only over by three years.
Brandon Tartikoff died of Hodgkin lymphoma in 1997.
Impressive
Gold $351....lmao

Dave was 43 +/- 1, at the time.
As a garbage company, NBC was just giving Dave a little piece of itself.
The price of gold and silver then vs now tells you all you need to know about inflation.

“Most bottoms should be felt, don’t ya think”. 😂😂. It took me a second to catch that because of how casually he said it! Dave and Conan were the only funny late night hosts left, now it’s just Conan.
Rick Mercer is 100 times funnier
Dave got screwed, and Leno sucked !
Is this comedy?
And Dave wonders why he did not get the Johnny Carson job? A great gag but if this was truly a gift from NBC Chief and he lampooned it this savagely, he cannot be shocked they chose Leno? And although I preferred Dave to Jay, NBC’s decision turned out the correct one. For only for a few months did Letterman ever beat Jay in the ratings over a decade period they competed against each other.
I have a feeling little ole' Tracy there at the counter was a hot little ticket. And I think Barbara Gaines just really lucked out career-wise, I'll just leave it at that.
