Listen Later

Episode 170 of The Letterman Podcast features our very special guest, Jordan Zevon. A gifted singer-songwriter in his own right, Jordan is also the son of the late, great Warren Zevon — the genius, the icon, the soon-to-be Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee.Warren Zevon was a brilliantly bright thread woven into the fabric of David Letterman’s legacy, appearing on the show more than 30 times as a guest, musical performer, and even stepping in as guest bandleader when Paul Shaffer was away. His work and wit were cherished by fans — and by Dave himself.Joining in the conversation is friend of the show and official Warren Zevon historian Adam Unger, who helps navigate this heartfelt and often funny discussion. Jordan opens up about what it was like being Warren’s son, shares personal insights into his father’s legacy, and recalls his own performances on Late Show, including a memorable one with The Wallflowers. This episode is sponsored, as always, by our only sponsor — Hello-Deli.com, your official source for Late Show with David Letterman merchandise, run by the legendary Rupert Jee.
