Aging vagrant and late night legend David Letterman got out of the house for the first time since his retirement — for an interview with Jimmy Kimmel. Sporting an incredible beard, Letterman talked with Kimmel about sending Conan O'Brien a horse, his new show on Netflix, and reconnected with Paul Shaffer.
