I remember watching this. Still funny. The genuine smiles plus silliness do more good for humanity than the world knows. I hope all the interviewees are all doing well with life.
If anyone's curious, the guest is Letitia Baldrige. Among other things, she was an advisor to Clare Booth Luce, ambassador to Italy. Fascinating woman.
“Let’s Look for Swedes” was originally a talk show bit from the 1930s, but they found that it didn’t play as well over the radio … and the outcome was far less comical once the Swede was located.
I see only Swedes here where I live and in the 10-ish places I've lived at since 2006 when I was 16, which most of them are in different cities from Skåne to Västerbotten. I'm starting to think that most people who think otherwise are not outside as much as you should.
@@gangstaboy9387 I'm guessing you got the "everyone in Sweden is Swedish" card hidden up your sleeve? That's what the people that argue that Swedes can't become a minority use. You discuss with them and show them statistics etc, and their final comeback is "well, having immigrated doesn't make you any less Swedish!".
And if I remember right, it’s one of the states where the scandinavians immigrated, like MN, WI, NE, and the rest around there, and they still look Nordic (and Germanic, not just because of the hair but the faces too) despite probably being descendants thereof sooo 🤷🏻♀️
Just look at how all the people on the street were curious each time they saw the camera and wanted to see what was happening or to show themselves on TV. Now it's not like that anymore.
This is the type of stuff I miss that Dave used to do. Today someone would probably accuse a show of being racist, homophobic, or sexist for doing bits like this. They’re funny! Almost any humor is going to offend SOMEone. That’s why it’s funny! It’s irreverent and unexpected.
My wife looked over and asked me why Letterman looks like he is on the Simpsons. So we pulled up a pic of him on the Simpsons and yeah, almost the same shade of yellow.
Right, that's something Europeans don't understand or know..l had a friend he was blonde from north Italy looked like any Scandinavian. There're many blonde in middle east and Kurdistan as well. For example kurds have blonde, blue and green eyes but mixed in few hundred years with Arabs, turkish..when they attacked and moved to those places.. Anyway not only Europeans or Scandinavians are totally blonde, but many of them are because they don't mixed that much with another nationalities! Some Swedish have dark blonde hair and brown eyes! Scandinavian are more racist than Germany nowadays.. They have white power kind of movement and they demonstrating without shame on the street with police protection!! I just want to ad something on your comment, personally I'm spiritual l don't care what nationality, race... Because we all are one, no matter if you believe in that or not!!
@@Angel-nb2fnthey’re not racist even if you found some that are And yes we are all one, human and nonhuman animals, and all, are earthlings, and even elsewhere we still have similarities
of the two young girls interviewed about 3 mins in, the one the left looks a lot like a young teen version of Gwyneth Paltrow, doesnt she? (she's not swedish either though ,D )
