In a recent episode of David Letterman‘s talk show, the audience was left shocked and amused when comedian Sarah Silverman confessed to stabbing politician Al Franken in the head. The incident occurred during her time as a writer on “Saturday Night Live,” and Silverman couldn’t help but share the funny story with Letterman and his viewers.
As Silverman explained, she was daydreaming during a writing session at SNL, sitting next to Al Franken, who was like a home base to her. In the midst of her daydream, Silverman had the misjudgment of playfully attempting to stick a pencil through Franken’s afro, but instead, she accidentally stabbed him in the head. The result was a hilarious mix of screams from Franken and uncontrollable laughter from Silverman.
The aftermath of the incident was a blur to Silverman, as she was asked not to return to SNL. Luckily, Al Franken recovered from the unconventional head wound, and everything turned out fine in the end.
Aside from this unexpected revelation, Silverman also discussed her personal life with Letterman. They touched on her past relationship with Jimmy Kimmel and speculated about a potential reunion, leaving audiences wondering if there might be a romantic spark between the two once again.
Silverman also voiced her concern about Letterman’s upcoming interview with John McCain, urging him to be cautious as McCain had previously caused harm to the talk show host. However, she suggested a clever solution to minimize any potential risks by having McCain as the second guest, with the Super Nanny taking precedence.
Throughout the interview, Silverman showcased her trademark humor and wit, keeping the audience entertained and engaged. She also discussed her upbringing in New Hampshire, revealing that she grew up in a small town with her four sisters.
As the segment came to a close, Letterman reminded viewers to catch the latest season of “The Sarah Silverman Program” on Comedy Central, airing on Thursday nights at 10:30. With her distinctive brand of comedy and infectious personality, Silverman continues to captivate audiences with her unique style.
