President Barack Obama joined David Letterman at the Ed Sullivan Theater Monday for that night’s airing of The Late Show and while he was there the two men, each on their way out of their respective offices, took a minute to talk retirement plans.
In a preview of the show posted Monday afternoon, Letterman asks Obama what he’ll do once 2017 rolls around and he’s not president any longer.

“I was thinking you and me, we could play some dominoes together,” Obama responded with a smile. “We can go to the local Starbucks and swap stories.”
Letterman also revealed that during commercial break the President told him he’d be taking a month off.
“Are you kidding me? After eight years of this, you’re only taking a month off?” Letterman said.
Meanwhile Letterman said he plans to teach law at Columbia. To which Obama responded, “I’d be interested to sit in on that class. I mean, that would be a hoot.”
