    Nice to see you for the first time on actual TV, congrats. Anyways I was battling sleep staying up for your appearance which at about 12:30 ish I believe. Haha. Anyways you seemed a bit nervous there with your finger nails… Haha. I just wish it was longer and you got to talk about the actual record, the Oklahoma event, etc. Great job though. Now for you to come out with a second book something else has to be done right? Haha…

    Awkward moment around 7:19…. Good interview, wish you got to talk longer though. Did you get to meet Luci?

  5. 5 Alex Roy

    Awkward moment? LOL! That’s because Letterman had his license suspended and I caught him on it!

  6. 6 Kyle H.

    haha nice one Alex

  7. 7 Dave

    Yeah Alex, the “awkward moment” was great. I what rolling on the floor knowing that you had caught Letterman on his suspension. It took me a while to explain to all my friends what was so funny. Loved it man. Keep up the great work!

    Great Interview, but it was too short. If those writers wern’t on strike I bet the interview would have gone on longer. Too bad we didn’t see any clips from 31:07 apart from the 3 seconds at the end of the intervew. I thought it was hilarious how David thought Ross’s Bently Continental GT was the BMW E39! Then he says (referring to the second picture) “What were you guys doing here?”

    Great interview! Wish it was longer!

    Nice interview but too short

    Good appearance!

    Great to catch you on television last night. Your cousins tried to stay up late - we lost 2 out of 3. Robert, Jordan and I caught you “live” and we TIVO’d it for Kenny and Madison to catch later. You look terrific. Hope to see you next time you’re in L.A. - watch your speed! xoxo - Patricia

    Alex,
    Loved the book, btw. Did you have any time at all after the interview to talk cars/rallying with Dave, or did they just rush you off the stage? He’s a big automotive enthusiast. I would think that he would have been interested in talking with you during the break.

    Didn’t know Dave had lost his license and can’t find anything about it with a quick google search, so a nice little inside-joke there. Maybe spill some more beans on this? What an honor to be featured on the show, I think the interview was excellent and I think you got a lot more coverage and on-air time than comparable guests on the show (the intro was pretty lenghty and funny!). It would be interesting to get some followup posts here with inside anectotes on being on the show, was ‘Monty’ around, haven’t seen her in a while..
    My favorite adventurer on my favorite talk show, what could be better? Ok, maybe the 177A in ‘Will it float’ :D

  14. 14 Everyones a Critic

    Oh, ok. I was unaware that letterman had his liscense suspended. Haha, that is great. Nice job man.

  15. 15 fpborges

    Too, too short. We want more! Doing Leno or Conan anytime soon? :P

  16. 16 Richard

    Really nice!!! cool that David Letterman to u on the show:)

  17. 17 lazy dude

    ok well that wasn’t so bad.

    I am surprised that the audience were silent at the revelation of the simultanius Gas/ bathroom gag…

    I for one was wetting my self with laughter!!!

    maybe thats ‘coz its usual to do that in USA? LOL!!!!

    well done Alex, now go and hide away again before they start casting you in the re-make of Magnum PI !!!

  18. 18 Florian

    You pulled up a grea show Alex! But again it was a little bit short.. I hope you get a shot at Jay Leno´s show!! I think at his show you will get a much longer interview.. Keep going on!!
    Greeting from Germany Herr Roy!!

  19. 19 Cartorialist

    If you do Leno you’ll be a sell out Alex and you wouldn’t want that, now would you?

    Am I the only one that feels cheated that Lucy Liu wasn’t still in her chair?

    Congrats Alex, Good Job…

    If only you could’ve got to Dave a lil sooner, you could’ve taught him a few tricks on how to avoid all those speeding ticket he’s gottin’ from that long drive he does from CT to NY everyday to work. He’s been getting nail with tickets for years now on the Merritt Pky, guess its about time he go his license suspended.

    I loved the interview… but like most people said, it felt like he cut you short. I guess that’s the planning of television, though.

  22. 22 Mr. Bechard

    Roy nice interview!

  23. 23 Flo

    Great appearance!
    I like his reaction in the “awkward moment”…ah what? :D

  24. 24 Lex
