I noted last year that David Letterman would be dealing with climate change in his first major post-retirement television gig. As part of the second season of Years of Living Dangerously (now on the National Geographic channel), Letterman went to India to talk energy. His episode will premiere on October 30, and there are now some video clips.
This first one focuses on Letterman’s interview with the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi.
The second clip is about solar panels and reflects Letterman’s previous work in late night.
The program typically airs two ‘stories’ in each episode. In addition to Letterman’s story, the October 30 premiere will include Saturday Night Live cast member Cecily Strong investigating the adoption (or not) of solar power in the United States. Continuing the late night trend, Aasif Mandvi, former correspondent for The Daily Show, is part of another episode in Season 2, focusing on how changes in drought patterns affect wildlife populations.
