With over a century of television appearances between them, Barbara Walters and David Letterman are both about to retire and both expressed misgivings about their decision.
On Wednesday’s Late Show With David Letter, Walters told Letterman that she was not happy with his decision to retire.
WALTERS: “I do not want you to retire.”
LETTERMAN: “I don’t want to retire now, either. I’ve decided I changed my mind.”
WALTERS: “Can you stay?”
LETTERMAN: “Oh no, that ship has sailed. They got plans. They’re repainting, and they measured and everything. No.”
WALTERS: “I feel the same way. I said yes, I wanted to go. I’m not ready!”
As NBC News reports,
Concluding two such remarkable careers will take teamwork, it seems. Extending her hand, Walters suggested, “Let’s walk into the sunset together.”
Shaking Walters’ hand, Letterman said drily, “That’s fine. We’ll do that.” Then he paused for a moment and observed, “I think — wait a minute. I think we just made a suicide pact.”
Walters laughed. “You first.”
