Oh, I’m not in a band (existential threat)


May 2021

“Trump’s been in potential legal hot water for a while now, as evidenced not just by his own criminal probes but all the criminals or alleged criminals surrounding him, including his former campaign manager Steve Bannon (indicted, then pardoned), adviser Roger Stone (pardoned), national security adviser Michael Flynn (pardoned), foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos (pardoned), deputy chair of his inaugural committee Elliott Broidy (pardoned), deputy chair of his campaign, Rick Gates (went to prison, pardoned), his personal lawyer Michael Cohen (went to prison) and his other personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani (under active criminal investigation). 


It’s just basic logic that if you’re surrounded at all times by that many criminals, there’s a solid chance you’re also a criminal. You never hear someone on stage at a concert say ‘that’s Doug on the bass, give it up for Russell on rhythm guitar, that’s Mick on lead, that’s Billy on keyboards, and me? Oh, I’m not in a band.’” —Seth Meyers

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic. 

A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”

JOKES: I'd rather be invading Baghdad (Wait, I’m not dead)



During the “In Memoriam” segment they accidentally showed the picture of a woman who is still alive, an Australian producer named Jan Chapman. Which in a way is a much bigger story than “La La Land.” Sure, it’s bad to think you have won Best Picture when you didn’t. But how about being told you’re dead when you’re not? –James Corden
This would send me into a deep existential funk. I would be like, “Wait, I’m not dead. But am I truly living?” –James Corden
The Oscars went very well. We were chugging along. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere, it turned into one of those Maury Povich paternity test shows. –Jimmy Kimmel
