Tom Snyder's last episode on his cable talk show aired live on December 1, 1994. His guests that night were Bob Newhart, telling great stories, and Calvert DeForest, plugging his book, _Cheap Advice,_
...
which he had no hand in writing. Dave Letterman, Tom's forthcoming boss, called in as "Elliot from Gas City, Indiana."*
Tom would return on air the following month, on January 9, 1995, to launch his new Dave-owned talk show, "Late Late Show with Tom Snyder" on CBS, right after Letterman's "Late Show."
Following the show is a profile CNN aired on January 9, 1995, that featured Tom and his new "Late Late Show," which would debut later that night.
