"I'm standing backstage minutes ago, and I hear this ovation and it's huge. And I said to someone, 'In my entire life in television and just walking around in real life, I've never heard an ovation like that,'" Dave says. "And the ovation continues—and it continues and continues. And now it's just getting silly. So I said to the guy back there, 'Oh my God, what is Oprah doing out there to get this kind of ovation?' And he says, 'She's just standing there.'"

The audience members aren't the only New Yorkers cheering for Oprah. "Did you see the Statue of Liberty?" Dave says.
