"Jay is horrible, right?" he asked Letterman, to cheers from the audience. Letterman only laughed in response.

He also called the "Tonight Show" host talentless, and criticized Letterman for doing a Super Bowl commercial with him a few years back.

"Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time, and people sort of responded favorably to it," Letterman explained.

"I didn't like it," Stern told him.
