Speaker 2: I'm here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, We're all here, We're all doing it. This is
Speaker 1: the after, the day after. I don't know. I have
Speaker 1: only slept for three hours, crazy day since yesterday. That's
Speaker 1: what I feel. Anything kind in the dream like state.
Speaker 4: And you were You've been talking NonStop for like seventy
Speaker 4: days getting ready for this, and then you had you
Speaker 4: had Globes last night, stir this morning, I feel like
Speaker 4: you should just turn it over to these two to
Speaker 4: describe the event of last night.
Speaker 3: We started talk when we got here and I kept saying, well, no, no,
Speaker 3: we got to save it.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So, just to set the stage, last night I hosted
Speaker 1: the Golden Globes, the eighty second Golden Globes. It was
Speaker 1: live on CBS. It went extraordinarily well. All of the
Speaker 1: hard work, all of the running around doing sets, all
Speaker 1: of the writing, all of the just thought that went behind.
Speaker 1: It totally paid off. It's a testament to like, when
Speaker 1: you know something so well, you can just get up
Speaker 1: there and have fun and do it. We had a
Speaker 1: blast doing it all around. But it like truly was
Speaker 1: exceeded expectations. I believe, like if I would have dreamed
Speaker 1: for it to have a response, it truly was the
Speaker 1: response that it got in every way. In fact, like
Speaker 1: we were saying this morning, some of the article titles
Speaker 1: would have been if we were, like, if I pitched
Speaker 1: to the writer's room, can you guys like pitch on
Speaker 1: on some titles to articles that we would want people
Speaker 1: to write after this, they would have been these.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: It was like it was truly you know, yeah, it
Speaker 1: was just it's another another like Tom Brady Roast kind
Speaker 1: of like moment of like it all worked out and
Speaker 1: I'm so lucky and happy and grateful to.
Speaker 2: Have two of these like the Tom Brady Rose were.
Speaker 5: Then everyone in the world of sports knows who you
Speaker 5: are after it, and then now everyone in Hollywood knows.
Speaker 2: It's like you got to go do like a home depot.
Speaker 3: Right now, hitting well well across the board. You got
Speaker 3: rave reviews from not just Huffington Post, but also Breitbart
Speaker 3: wrote an article about you that because there was there
Speaker 3: were jokes in there for everybody.
Speaker 1: Yes, there really did.
Speaker 3: Appiece different demographics at different times.
Speaker 1: We didn't do that piece because we were like trying
Speaker 1: to be middle of the road and play both sides.
Speaker 1: It was just like we just felt the vibe of
Speaker 1: the We felt the zeitgeist right now, which would literally
Speaker 1: changed by the hour based on like if they knew
Speaker 1: who Luigi Manjione was, if they were worried about Trump,
Speaker 1: like if the vibe in the air was, you know,
Speaker 1: like it was changing every day. But we just nailed
Speaker 1: the tone and so no one felt we weren't we're
Speaker 1: you know, skewing them, because they weren't. It was like
Speaker 1: it was about skewing the idea of things more. It
Speaker 1: wasn't like no one got like scorched either.
Speaker 5: No, it was like it was so celebratory and the
Speaker 5: nicest tweet that I read that like like really just
Speaker 5: like ignited something in my brain to the point where
Speaker 5: it's all I thought about for the last eighteen hours
Speaker 5: is someone said this felt like the like the first
Speaker 5: award show to ever feel young and in the moment,
Speaker 5: and they were like Nikki should be like the millennial
Speaker 5: Billy Crystal moving forward man, where it was just like
Speaker 5: it really felt like for the first time ever, it
Speaker 5: didn't feel old and stale heard yeah, oh.
Speaker 1: No, no, yeah, I mean the we'redy young to be described,
Speaker 1: you know, when you're forty. But that's how long this
Speaker 1: takes to like be for me at least to be
Speaker 1: good enough to have done this. I couldn't have done
Speaker 1: this in my twenties or thirds. I think some people
Speaker 1: do have talent that emerges or they just find out
Speaker 1: who they are as a performer earlier on, but and
Speaker 1: just being able to be surrounded by the right people.
Speaker 1: But truly, like is such a win, Like I feel
Speaker 1: I feel like Tom Brady on the Patriots and we
Speaker 1: just want won the super Bowl. That's how I feel like.
Speaker 1: I really feel like it was it's our win.
Speaker 3: I think tom Brady is a pretty apt description because this,
Speaker 3: this was this. I felt way different this time than
Speaker 3: I did after the Tom Brady was after Tom Brady rose,
Speaker 3: I felt like I won the Super Bowl. I felt
Speaker 3: like I was euphoric. Yeah, this time I was not euphoric.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was what were you feeling?
Speaker 3: I was satisfied. I was like, we came here to win,
Speaker 3: we expected to win, and we want Yeah, totally I was.
Speaker 3: I was like, this is gonna I think I posted
Speaker 3: online beforehand. Yeah, on my Instagram, I said, get ready
Speaker 3: because you're about to see the best monologue in Golden
Speaker 3: Globe's history. And that was prior to the monologue. And
Speaker 3: I and if it was any worse than that, I
Speaker 3: would be depressed right now. Yeah, and we we we
Speaker 3: were the best monologue in Golden Globes history. And so
Speaker 3: now I'm satisfied, satisfied.
Speaker 5: So I love the difference between Brian right now and
Speaker 5: Brian on Saturday.
Speaker 1: It's great.
Speaker 5: It's like a new It's like, honestly, it's like the
Speaker 5: substance in a way where you got you're younger, You're like,
Speaker 5: r yeah for life. Yeah, Dennis Quad's jacking off to
Speaker 5: you right now.
Speaker 1: It is. It was, So it's just so awesome, like
Speaker 1: to just the relief on the other side of a
Speaker 1: lot of work, a lot of anxiety is just one
Speaker 1: of the best feelings in the world. It's like why
Speaker 1: you do it? It's like why, it's the real That's
Speaker 1: that's what I'm going after the feeling of yes, it
Speaker 1: like that was so scary and then now it's not
Speaker 1: anymore and there is like are with that comes like
Speaker 1: kind of like then what do I think about? Like
Speaker 1: I can't last night, I could not fall asleep because
Speaker 1: all it was monologu jkes were going through my head,
Speaker 1: the wording of joke like still my brain is still
Speaker 1: like keep running them, keep practicing them. It was really bizarre.
Speaker 4: How about Nikki memorizing that last joke incredible, it's it's
Speaker 4: it's like one of the most impressive things.
Speaker 1: I can't believe. I can't believe I did not. Let's
Speaker 1: just set the stage.
Speaker 3: Sorry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the last joke I do was about in
Speaker 1: the monologue. The last joke I did was about how
Speaker 1: you know, no matter what happens to night, whether you
Speaker 1: win or lose, just remember the point of winning an
Speaker 1: award is not to uh. The point of making art
Speaker 1: is not to win an award. The point of making
Speaker 1: art is to start it, to kill a brand so
Speaker 1: popular you never have to make art again. Great joke,
Speaker 1: and every joke was in the prompter, the teleprompter in
Speaker 1: case you know, I was off book for all of
Speaker 1: the jokes. But I would have to just look to
Speaker 1: see where I was in the in the monologue and
Speaker 1: some of the wording, maybe I would look to it,
Speaker 1: but we were moving things around, so it was more prompter.
Speaker 1: Was more about like what's next as opposed to like
Speaker 1: what am I say?
Speaker 2: Yeah, roadmap for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But that joke we took out because we found
Speaker 1: it rehearsal the one before it about you know, this
Speaker 1: is going to be memorable evening somebody You're going to
Speaker 1: look back and be like, oh see one of the
Speaker 1: crouch outs to go, oh my god. That was before
Speaker 1: they caught that guy that was supposed to be the closer.
Speaker 1: Because a rehearsal, a tag for it went really well, Yeah,
Speaker 1: where I say, it's like it could be it's a guy,
Speaker 1: it could be a woman. It's not going to be.
Speaker 3: And the it did do really well in the room
Speaker 3: that both those tags exploded the one hundred percent of
Speaker 3: the time it's a it's a man that exploded.
Speaker 2: That was the biggest pop. Yeah. The like the entire.
Speaker 3: Monologue and it got up Plausebury like but there is
Speaker 3: But but what Nicky sensed was that this is not
Speaker 3: this is kind of a downer to end. This is
Speaker 3: not a celebratory statement to be making right here, right
Speaker 3: the line, and this was not in the prompter. We
Speaker 3: removed it because.
Speaker 5: Yeah, John, even more impressive is every time you did
Speaker 5: this joke at in a set, you kept saying brand
Speaker 5: of tequila, and it was always supposed to be tequila brand.
Speaker 5: You kept saying brand of tequila, and in your memory
Speaker 5: you did the right wording, and it is.
Speaker 1: That's crazy, It was insane. I never once said it
Speaker 1: right before then.
Speaker 2: No holding it in your hand.
Speaker 1: Like because I would always like see the joke that
Speaker 1: I would look up from my phone and just say
Speaker 1: brand of tequila instead of tequila brand. I didn't even
Speaker 1: realize that I got that right.
Speaker 5: That's so great, completely right like last night and right now.
Speaker 2: And it's just like what if.
Speaker 1: I would have like like if it would be a
Speaker 1: totally different conversation. That's how delicate the ship is. That
Speaker 1: if I would not have landed that last joke, which
Speaker 1: is just a fraction of what I did up there
Speaker 1: the whole night, Yeah, it would have been a different
Speaker 1: like it would be different story today because a closer
Speaker 1: is your dismount is like that's your your pose at
Speaker 1: the end, and if you wobble on that. It's like
Speaker 1: it just gives a different it's it's more important than
Speaker 1: the first thing you do, so for me to go.
Speaker 1: And I was talking and I remember being like, it's
Speaker 1: that moment like when our gymnast is flying through the
Speaker 1: air on this like and and everyone's holding their breath
Speaker 1: and it's silent and like it's time slows down. That
Speaker 1: is what I felt like in a like movie moment
Speaker 1: in my mind, saying that joke of like I don't
Speaker 1: know if I'm if the next word is going to
Speaker 1: be the right word, what's gonna happen it? Think, fucking god,
Speaker 1: that is over. Yes, that moment is over. Because if
Speaker 1: someone would have told me that moment was coming up
Speaker 1: in my life, I would not I would And I
Speaker 1: hate that there are going to be more moments like
Speaker 1: that in my life that I can that I that
Speaker 1: I know are coming up because I set myself up
Speaker 1: for them all the time. Yeah, that was terrifying, but
Speaker 1: it was completely flawless. Yeah, it ended.
Speaker 5: It ended that the monologue in such a triumphant way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone like chee.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And then like half right after that, you get
Speaker 5: like another slam with the rock coming out it like
Speaker 5: it paired so well with bringing the rock up as well,
Speaker 5: because he has a Kilo brand that's very successful. Even
Speaker 5: meant it to be that because you got moved the
Speaker 5: day of God. Oh yeah, it's like a perfect circumstance
Speaker 5: that like you just nailed and it's like this electric
Speaker 5: moment that like it was like goosebumps.
Speaker 2: It was incredible, It was amazing.
Speaker 1: It really is just about like what it boils down
Speaker 1: to is like if you got to practice, you just
Speaker 1: And that's the reason I do lots of sets. I
Speaker 1: don't like I don't like to I don't like to rehearse,
Speaker 1: like when there's not an ought, Like I don't like
Speaker 1: to just go over the script reading it over with
Speaker 1: a group of rights in a room. I don't like
Speaker 1: to rehearse in by alone. I mean, I'm sure that
Speaker 1: that it would have worked also that way, to just
Speaker 1: say the lines over and over, but I just had
Speaker 1: to go out and do a bunch of sets so
Speaker 1: that I was forced to say it a bunch. It's
Speaker 1: not even it wasn't even about testing this your I mean,
Speaker 1: it was about that, but I realized that was about
Speaker 1: just like saying it so much that it I could
Speaker 1: say it anyway and still find my way back or
Speaker 1: if something happened, it was just like I had it
Speaker 1: memorized so well. But for me, there's no other way
Speaker 1: to do that than just book sets, because then I
Speaker 1: have like practicing lines for an audition I would never do,
Speaker 1: like I never I go into auditions, and I'm never
Speaker 1: prepared or off book because I don't there's no the
Speaker 1: auditioning sucks, but when there's an audience there, I'll audition
Speaker 1: or practicing sucks, but when there's an audience, practice can
Speaker 1: happen for me to.
Speaker 2: Scrimmage.
Speaker 1: She doesn't want to do drill, Yeah, I don't want
Speaker 1: to drill. I want And that's why, Like I practiced,
Speaker 1: I learned so much guitar when I was able to
Speaker 1: go live on Instagram. It's like I need an audience
Speaker 1: watching me, Like you know, I practice like what I
Speaker 1: really suck, like off Instagram, but like to try it,
Speaker 1: and like you need an audio. I don't know three.
Speaker 1: I guess three.
Speaker 3: That's that's all it is. And it can the whole
Speaker 3: monologue down to the fact that you're three. Oh God,
Speaker 3: I can't get away from it. So glad I was
Speaker 3: watching the monologue on YouTube today, which by the way,
Speaker 3: is over two million there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's at two point three.
Speaker 5: What it's at two point three It's been fifteen hours
Speaker 5: at the time of taping, and last year's monologue has
Speaker 5: two point nine in a year.
Speaker 2: Oh my word.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think that's mostly us watching to figure
Speaker 5: out what not to do.
Speaker 1: Funny.
Speaker 3: But I was watching it and I got that mark
Speaker 3: where you you have to do that, you do the
Speaker 3: audible and you have to do that last joke. And
Speaker 3: I saw it last night and I know that it
Speaker 3: went well, and even watching it knowing that, I was
Speaker 3: still nervous that you.
Speaker 4: Weren't going to get so my heart sank in that moment. Yeah,
Speaker 4: when I saw it was an imprompter and I knew
Speaker 4: Nikki had to do it.
Speaker 2: I was terrified.
Speaker 5: It's the wildest audible call because you you start saying
Speaker 5: all right, and then you're like before we start giving
Speaker 5: out awards like it. It was like, so you caught yourself.
Speaker 5: You're like, I'm not gonna start it right, yeah, but
Speaker 5: like you know that, but everyone in the room is
Speaker 5: just like, oh, of course, Like she's taking a beat
Speaker 5: as we're laughing.
Speaker 2: Yes, it was.
Speaker 3: It was flawless. And then I want to say something
Speaker 3: that I think is an underappreciated aspect of your hosting,
Speaker 3: which is obviously it was funny, and the monologue was amazing,
Speaker 3: and the interstitials were amazing. But I watching it back,
Speaker 3: I really like the way you introduce people. It's very professional.
Speaker 3: It's got like the great a great tenor in your voice.
Speaker 2: Yes, now it was. It was.
Speaker 5: It was wall to wall some of the best hosting ever.
Speaker 5: Your introductions were incredible, Like.
Speaker 3: The smiles, it's like you it's like you know when
Speaker 3: you see like a kid and like they've been trained
Speaker 3: to be a debutante, and like how do you know
Speaker 3: which fork to use? And how do you know how
Speaker 3: to position your arms? It was like that for hosting.
Speaker 3: It was just like it really was. You were like
Speaker 3: adult John Bonnet.
Speaker 1: Of the Great Guy. That's so nice.
Speaker 2: I mean popular, Like, let's talk about popular.
Speaker 4: But honestly, I think there could be an hour long
Speaker 4: documentary about how popular. I'm serious, you could interview every
Speaker 4: single person there is this. There's a story for most
Speaker 4: people that have been involved in this project with Nikki,
Speaker 4: and everybody had some little part to play to create
Speaker 4: something that was so funny that people.
Speaker 3: Loved it, loved it really is loved.
Speaker 5: To a point that like literally my son today woke
Speaker 5: up and the first thing he did like to wake
Speaker 5: me up was sing Popular.
Speaker 2: Kim and his friends were singing.
Speaker 5: Popular at a golden like an adult gold golden globes thing.
Speaker 5: Does I mean everybody was topless. No, It's like it
Speaker 5: really like it changed something in my son.
Speaker 2: He like loved it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my god, I was listening to the soundtrack at
Speaker 3: the gym today. I was just like, I got to
Speaker 3: hear Popular.
Speaker 1: I went to the gym today.
Speaker 3: I went to the gym this morning.
Speaker 1: I have to She got to sleep in.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you didn't do stern.
Speaker 3: I got back pretty late. I talked to Ali, stayed
Speaker 3: up so I could give her, like the.
Speaker 2: Download and what grade did she give it?
Speaker 3: She gave it an A plus plus.
Speaker 2: That's really good. Yeah.
Speaker 3: We talked until like two o'clock in the morning about
Speaker 3: it because we stayed out really late.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Fact, I didn't leave the Hilton until midnight or a
Speaker 3: past midnight.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was trying to go to sleep for us,
Speaker 4: and I just kept trying to talk about how great
Speaker 4: she was and she's trying to Sleep on the episode to.
Speaker 1: Sleep, No, No, No. I wanted the company. I was like,
Speaker 1: because you went downstairs for a bit to collect like
Speaker 1: some stuff from the you know, writer's room, and I
Speaker 1: was like, when is he coming back? Like I can't
Speaker 1: be alone. I haven't been alone forever. I wanted to
Speaker 1: like talk or like process and like, yeah, it was.
Speaker 2: It's all I wanted. I got home and every one
Speaker 2: was asleep.
Speaker 5: But then I got like a text message from my
Speaker 5: friend who is not in the industry, but he's like
Speaker 5: a he's in the music industry and he's like way
Speaker 5: too cool for school with everything, and he was like
Speaker 5: I was at a party and as she started doing popular,
Speaker 5: the whole party was like.
Speaker 2: No, don't do this.
Speaker 5: And then the turn of this sucks. He was like,
Speaker 5: it was a celebration. We all got got like we're
Speaker 5: all so good because.
Speaker 1: Like we were feeling like so many people were like
Speaker 1: they really wanted the song, and like I think some
Speaker 1: people it would have been like a fun thing to do.
Speaker 1: We like, but I didn't really hear that anyone had that,
Speaker 1: Like I haven't heard the reaction of like what is
Speaker 1: she doing? Like and then they were like, oh, you
Speaker 1: got us that's so good to hear that that paid off,
Speaker 1: because that's what we were writing to, Like we wanted
Speaker 1: to trick people.
Speaker 5: We tricked like we tricked like a group of like
Speaker 5: like alternative musicians in a way where they were just
Speaker 5: oh my god, like anything.
Speaker 1: But the whole thing sucks. That was my favorite part
Speaker 1: was just saying this whole thing sucks. That really like
Speaker 1: maybe laugh every time I said it, which was like
Speaker 1: three times. Yeah. But to practice, we came up with
Speaker 1: Popular the night before at like ten pm, nine or ten.
Speaker 5: It happened so late that like I went to sleep
Speaker 5: being like, well, popular is definitely get it cut.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see what we do it at
Speaker 2: three loopy.
Speaker 3: You never can trust an idea like that late.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's a miracle that it even happened like
Speaker 1: it just is. Thank god. I had canceled my sets
Speaker 1: that night because it was just I was having a
Speaker 1: fun time in the writer's room. I was like, I
Speaker 1: don't need to practice anymore. It's down, like we don't
Speaker 1: need to do that. So I canceled my sets and
Speaker 1: then we were just that just came from us being
Speaker 1: kookie and just go like throwing out stuff and like
Speaker 1: saying like, oh, what could be we do if we're
Speaker 1: not just like because Jess Dwek was the one that
Speaker 1: was like, you know, you just had a great monologue
Speaker 1: and you have another you're talking in all the acts
Speaker 1: we have this act three, like if you just we
Speaker 1: were gonna do another mini monologue about TV, which would
Speaker 1: have been great and great jokes. But she was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know. At that point, I'm like looking for
Speaker 1: something more. I'm like kind of bored. It's like the
Speaker 1: same thing we already saw. And then to me, I
Speaker 1: was just like, God damn it, she's fucking right, and
Speaker 1: now we have to like come up with something like
Speaker 1: to come up with like an interactive bit where I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to like go in the audience or I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to like I don't know, like go over
Speaker 1: like do some just just do some sort of like bit.
Speaker 1: Just doing bits is like it's hard to come up
Speaker 1: with a bit that works. Like, yes, I'm great at
Speaker 1: telling jokes, that's what I do. Like let's just stick
Speaker 1: to that. But she was so right, and I'm like
Speaker 1: I really was like, oh, this is gonna be such
Speaker 1: a long night and this is just insurmountable of like
Speaker 1: where do we where do we even go? What do
Speaker 1: we do?
Speaker 5: Her saying that at like eight thirty nine pm. It
Speaker 5: was so helpful though, because we got you said in
Speaker 5: a windowless room all day. Oh my god, you're so
Speaker 5: right windows everyone's crazy. The original pitch was like you
Speaker 5: that you come out like Linda, and the song was
Speaker 5: cut and then J P. McDade said popular yeah, and
Speaker 5: then we all no one heard him except for Mike Gibbons,
Speaker 5: who then asked him to repitch it again, and then
Speaker 5: we kind of just talked.
Speaker 2: He thought he was like he backed off on it
Speaker 2: because like, everybody hates it.
Speaker 3: There's no way that was a good joke. Nobody laughed
Speaker 3: at this again.
Speaker 5: And then he pitches it again because Gibbons makes him
Speaker 5: pitch it again, and then we kind of riff on
Speaker 5: it for like ten minutes and then like three of
Speaker 5: us just go into another room bang out a script,
Speaker 5: and then you're sending it off.
Speaker 2: And thank god we did it, because not only was.
Speaker 5: It really funny, but it also gave the every like
Speaker 5: news outlet an iconic photo of you wearing a pope hat.
Speaker 2: Thing and you look fucking awesome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's my favorite thing I've ever done, I
Speaker 1: think for sure, and I definitely want that as my
Speaker 1: in memorial photo. It's one hundred percent like, please, if
Speaker 1: I die, please have this clippery surface at the Emmys,
Speaker 1: because that's the one I'll be shown dead on.
Speaker 4: Nicky said this last night, and her mom and her dad,
Speaker 4: like a bunch of us were there and Nicky's like,
Speaker 4: I want this as my in memorial image. Please, we
Speaker 4: need to make that happen. And Nicky's mom goes, oh,
Speaker 4: we'll make it happen.
Speaker 1: But I think it'll get a laugh in the room.
Speaker 1: That is like it just looks ridiculous.
Speaker 5: It looks ridiculous, but it also looks iconic, Like you
Speaker 5: have a white background from the spot, Yes, you look cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's so dumb.
Speaker 1: It's so dumb.
Speaker 3: It's a callback. It's just the longest callback of all
Speaker 3: time if you have picture pops.
Speaker 1: But when we were when we were in the room
Speaker 1: and you had written it out and you guys had
Speaker 1: like give us this amazing script and like we had
Speaker 1: pitched out on it in the room and stuff, and
Speaker 1: I was just like fired up by it. But it
Speaker 1: was also like we were like high and caffeine and
Speaker 1: adrenaline and nerves and like, you know, there's a I
Speaker 1: would say there was probably like thirty times we all
Speaker 1: collectively got like really excited about something and it didn't work. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like thirty times.
Speaker 3: That happened for thirty different wicked jokes. We never wound
Speaker 3: up telling.
Speaker 2: Me yes, medal.
Speaker 4: Yeah, even Brian, it's like DWEK has done it or
Speaker 4: like another person has done it multiple times.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there were so many ideas that we had that
Speaker 1: we you know, in the room. It's it's a great
Speaker 1: feeling because even if it doesn't work out, there's like
Speaker 1: this feeling of like and then this and this, and
Speaker 1: we're just like we're making each other laugh about it
Speaker 1: and we're like should we do this? This is crazy?
Speaker 1: And they never go. But this was one when I
Speaker 1: was like, God, I really do I like singing, and
Speaker 1: it's I don't. I'm not doing it too much that
Speaker 1: it's like seems like I'm like I am singing and
Speaker 1: it's making fun of myself and it's and it's just
Speaker 1: and it's catchy, like and it's just it's so good.
Speaker 1: Popular is so funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's such a catchy song.
Speaker 5: The joke is so clear immediately, and then on top
Speaker 5: of that, it's like, honest maybe the most cutting joke
Speaker 5: of the entire show, because in any other award show
Speaker 5: they would do the entire song. Yeah, and it's on
Speaker 5: every award show. Yes, honestly, you like took that away
Speaker 5: from like the SAG Awards might have actually done that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just got it. Okay, I gotta text to
Speaker 1: someone very important that I gotta good. I uh will
Speaker 1: be back after this. We're back. Yeah, that was crazy.
Speaker 3: This article is crazy. So there is an article on
Speaker 3: Rolling Stone that the title of the article is, and
Speaker 3: Bob's just sent us to us credit the pop system
Speaker 3: of a down jokingly confirm Glenn Close was a bandmate.
Speaker 3: Following Golden Globe shout out.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is so funny. Guitarist, Uh got joke,
Speaker 1: did not get anything in the room, were so confused.
Speaker 1: It was just for people who were listening closely.
Speaker 2: You know, I will say closely.
Speaker 5: It was the dumbest thing I've ever pitched in my
Speaker 5: entire life.
Speaker 4: Fundy failed in the room and it you know, sometimes
Speaker 4: sometimes the jokes are for the people, and this one
Speaker 4: was definitely.
Speaker 1: It was like two time Golden Globe recipient, Hollywood legend
Speaker 1: and former drummer of System of the Down Glenn.
Speaker 2: Close, that was like definitely for the room.
Speaker 1: It was so funny. It's like, but like why not
Speaker 1: say that, like that is so funny, and like even
Speaker 1: if it's like for me those like kind of tosses
Speaker 1: to presenters, there's no harm in that because it was
Speaker 1: just like to say, the weirdest thing made people go,
Speaker 1: what did she say? That's more interesting than just like
Speaker 1: here it comes.
Speaker 5: Because those when you bring somebody out, nobody's even really
Speaker 5: paying attention to the person walks out exactly. The idea
Speaker 5: that you even put some jokes in there is like
Speaker 5: so exciting.
Speaker 1: It's like it was just a little treat for anyone
Speaker 1: who was paying attention, which I at that point of
Speaker 1: the show was late in the show. It was probably
Speaker 1: the seventh act out of like ten or so, it
Speaker 1: was twelve.
Speaker 2: The last thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she was about to give the award to the
Speaker 1: Brutal God.
Speaker 2: She was walking out.
Speaker 3: She was laughing as she walked out. She liked the joke.
Speaker 3: I think I assume that's why she's laughing.
Speaker 5: Glenn Close, like rewatching the monologue was a Top five
Speaker 5: audience member Glenn Close Raye finds fucking loves you. Like
Speaker 5: the entire halftime recap. He You're like, he's right behind you.
Speaker 5: He's just laughing the entire time.
Speaker 1: Really, He's like.
Speaker 5: He starts laughing at Tucci and pointing at Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love rEFInd so much that just
Speaker 1: I cannot believe you just told me that that makes you.
Speaker 1: I was so nervous just standing because we you got
Speaker 1: in the crowd. I was so nervous being there because
Speaker 1: I just didn't want anyone to like feel forced to
Speaker 1: say something to me because I'm just like waiting there.
Speaker 1: So I even told the stage manager, don't set me
Speaker 1: out there until, like I go, like, literally, let's start
Speaker 1: walking a minute before we're back on. He was like,
Speaker 1: I want to go out a minute thirty. I was like, please,
Speaker 1: I can't be. I just don't want to stand out
Speaker 1: there and like while everyone's still talking and I'm just
Speaker 1: standing there alone, like they're gonna feel like they'll have
Speaker 1: to say good job, and if they don't, I'll feel sad.
Speaker 1: But people people just were like leaving me alone because
Speaker 1: they're like, she's a job to do. Yeah, vibe it
Speaker 1: wasn't like we don't like her vibe.
Speaker 5: Oh no, like I mean mental notes of everyone who
Speaker 5: like was really digging it at close.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got MVP Huge Star Edition. Yeah, so who
Speaker 4: are some of yours?
Speaker 5: Oh? Kylie, Kylie, Kylie you Even during the Timothy part, I.
Speaker 1: Was sure to even ask it matters.

Speaker 2: It's on the monologue.
Speaker 5: She is like bending over laugh at am I Tivothay
Speaker 5: is like trying to play it cool, but he's laughing.
Speaker 5: And then like during the Sandler thing, you really broke Timothy.
Speaker 1: Right, God, yes, well it's it's I realized, like it's
Speaker 1: so much. It's so hard to have a camera in
Speaker 1: your face when you because all the cameras are in
Speaker 1: people's faces wait and there they don't know when the
Speaker 1: joke is coming about them. They know it's coming because
Speaker 1: there's a camera in their face. Yeah, and they're a
Speaker 1: big star, so it's probably like they're like, oh, what's
Speaker 1: this going to be? And when you like from doing roast,
Speaker 1: when I would even see my name up in the
Speaker 1: prompter when someone was like doing their roast set and
Speaker 1: I know a joke's coming about me. You like blackout,
Speaker 1: you don't even listen to it, Like you're just like
Speaker 1: you can't like process information when you're so nervous. What's
Speaker 1: going to be said? So I went to bed last
Speaker 1: night being like, oh, I have to remember they are terrified.
Speaker 1: In that moment, I really was like, they have nothing worth.
Speaker 1: They should trust me, and like, I just like know
Speaker 1: that I am trustworthy, So I just think that they
Speaker 1: will be. But they were so scared.
Speaker 5: They might have been scared, but oh my god, like
Speaker 5: Kate Planchet, every reaction shot, She's dying, dying, Eddie Redmain,
Speaker 5: Eddie Redman isn't an is MVP?

Speaker 3: The most attentive audience member of all.
Speaker 1: Was having She was just being a fun human day,
Speaker 1: like made me feel so safe there.
Speaker 5: He literally said to Chris, I think when you were
Speaker 5: out there that Arianna doing the hold your finger and
Speaker 5: then she picked up Cynthia's and was like, this is
Speaker 5: you felt like the Kevin Hart moment at the Tom
Speaker 5: Brady Roast.
Speaker 1: It was just a co sign of like this were
Speaker 1: on board with this girl. It said this everyone was
Speaker 1: like in and like they didn't have to go that
Speaker 1: hard on it. They or like, you know, have that
Speaker 1: kind of moment. I met Ariana once when she was
Speaker 1: dating Pete, like very quickly, and I don't think she
Speaker 1: knew who I was. I mean there's no way so
Speaker 1: there was no like goodwill I had with her in
Speaker 1: my mind before that, but she I like I just
Speaker 1: sensed I sensed them even before that joke of like

Speaker 5: You.
Speaker 2: We were more afraid of you than you were amazed.
Speaker 1: They were so cool because wicked you that they were
Speaker 1: the ones to win over. And then it turns out
Speaker 1: like that that fear I had of like they might
Speaker 1: be taking themselves too seriously was so un found it. It
Speaker 1: was like the exact opposite. They were so about themselves
Speaker 1: immediately about it, and they were.
Speaker 4: So yes in the press conferences there was they were
Speaker 4: sore about all that stuff.
Speaker 2: But the fact that they were so light and fun
Speaker 2: and president that.
Speaker 1: Arianna is down for comedy. She's funny.
Speaker 2: She's funny, you know, Kidman. Kidman brought it.

Speaker 3: The fact that he laughed at that.
Speaker 1: Yes, that was so so cool. I wish I could
Speaker 1: have seen better. I couldn't really see what everyone was doing,
Speaker 1: but that's from my years of blurring my eyes and
Speaker 1: not paying attention to people's faces, Like my body doesn't
Speaker 1: know how to to like look at people and like
Speaker 1: see what they're doing. I literally can't, and so I
Speaker 1: just kind of saw like an energy. It was a
Speaker 1: positive energy, wicked I like did see because I'm like,
Speaker 1: they were so close, I couldn't. But everyone else there
Speaker 1: was just like sailor Challo May. I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I could see an energy of like he was. I
Speaker 1: saw him moving in a way that was laughing, but
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I couldn't really track it. It's it's nice
Speaker 1: to hear this.
Speaker 2: He had a great time. I mean, what did.
Speaker 5: This is one of my favorites, the greatest, like I'll
Speaker 5: never besperach my queen Club Shallow May.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 5: There.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's the fan group, the people who love Timothy Shallame.
Speaker 5: It's one woman. She's a forty five year old woman
Speaker 5: in New York. We love Club Shallow May. Show the
Speaker 5: moment Timothy laughed at you, that was the endorsement that
Speaker 5: she needed. She said, we think Nicky's funny. Timothy laughed.
Speaker 1: It was such a great tweet. Nicky Glazer is funny.
Speaker 1: Timothy laughed, like yeah, it's yeah, I love that. And
Speaker 1: there really meant a lot to me.
Speaker 4: So much generosity in the room from these huge stars
Speaker 4: the rock. I will I love the Rock for the
Speaker 4: rest of my life.
Speaker 2: That was My voice just cracked. I almost teared up.
Speaker 5: That was I know it was your moment, but for
Speaker 5: me and Mike Lawrence, that was a pivotal moment in
Speaker 5: both of our lives.
Speaker 1: I melted at just the sight of the rock.
Speaker 5: But oh my god, I don't think the human brain
Speaker 5: could comprehend what the rock looks like in real y.
Speaker 3: For context, it was after the show ended.
Speaker 1: Before the show he had he was presenting, so he
Speaker 1: was on the other side of the stage. He walked
Speaker 1: across the stage to come say hi to me and
Speaker 1: say good luck and say like you're going to kill
Speaker 1: this and give me like, uh, just the sweetest thing.
Speaker 5: Hu.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think I hugged him before and
Speaker 1: then after, which he did not need to do, came
Speaker 1: by after everyone was in the room, we were all
Speaker 1: kind of celebrating. Was probably like ten minutes after the
Speaker 1: end of the show, and he came back.
Speaker 5: He came back like he was the president of Hollywood.
Speaker 1: To make him yeah, I mean like he kind of is.
Speaker 2: He's the fucking rock.
Speaker 5: It's like, yes, he came in like swooped in and like,
Speaker 5: Nate Pergatia just come in. And I was like, uh, Nikki,
Speaker 5: you have a visitor. And all of a sudden, like Nate,
Speaker 5: we love Nate. This is the rock And just like honestly,
Speaker 5: like two d and eighty pounds of twisted seel and
Speaker 5: sex appeal walks into the room and then you and
Speaker 5: then he just held in pure charm, pure charm, like
Speaker 5: the most charismatic man to ever live tells you that
Speaker 5: for three hours you held the world in your hands.
Speaker 1: Yes, you do what you did up there, you can
Speaker 1: hold the world.
Speaker 2: You're so kind to you. Oh my god, he said.
Speaker 3: The monologue was perfect, and he made this sign and
Speaker 3: then then he said goodbye.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean it was just perfect, perfect length. Made nobody
Speaker 3: feel like, oh what do we do with the now?
Speaker 3: He came in, he delivered his piece and he got
Speaker 3: out of there.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And then like I looked at Mike Lawrence and I
Speaker 5: was like, do I kill you? And we stab each
Speaker 5: other at the same time, like this is as good
Speaker 5: as life could ever be.
Speaker 2: That's so awesome.
Speaker 5: A man that we've watched since we are nine years old.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Marty and Martin Short were laughing having
Speaker 4: such a good time.
Speaker 2: Steph Myers was having Ray You.
Speaker 5: I know you hate watching yourself, but you should really
Speaker 5: watch the halftime part. Ray finds is having the time
Speaker 5: of his life.
Speaker 1: That is so great to hear, like.
Speaker 5: He looks starstruck with you just standing in front of him.
Speaker 4: And I would say this this like season of Nikki
Speaker 4: watching movies. There's two people that have stood out to
Speaker 4: Nicky that I can remember. I'm sure you have more that.
Speaker 4: She was just like, I love this man, Ray Fines.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I like, I'm sorry, I've been sleeping on Ray Fines. Yeah,
Speaker 1: now I'm sleeping with him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I have.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I wasn't. I'm not a Harry Potter girl. Y.
Speaker 1: I don't know what Schindler's list. I've never seen. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: what's the other ones?
Speaker 2: So much? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I knew him from Made in Manhattan that I
Speaker 1: saw him, that I saw him in that recently, because
Speaker 1: that's the one he was. He's actually so I mean,
Speaker 1: it's like a rom company. He's so like what a versatile.
Speaker 2: He's like one of the greatest actors to ever live.
Speaker 1: He's next like you just I don't know watching him
Speaker 1: just like that. It just that's acting in a way
Speaker 1: that I and it's so subtle. It's like I don't
Speaker 1: even know what he's doing, but it's moving me in
Speaker 1: a way that I've never been moved by acting before.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's pretty obviously he's going to be
Speaker 5: listening to this. I feel like he's a bestie now
Speaker 5: based on Like truly, I saw stars in his eyes
Speaker 5: like it was just like, oh my god, she's here
Speaker 5: now that she was like that, he was laughing at everything.
Speaker 5: Oh my god. It was so fun to rewatch today.
Speaker 5: He came to have a good time. A bunch of
Speaker 5: those people. I cannot believe they came to have a
Speaker 5: really good was a party table.
Speaker 1: Yes, I can't wait to do this again.
Speaker 2: I mean Tucci.
Speaker 5: Tucci was an active audience member the first the first
Speaker 5: mention of Stanley Tucci freakof it looked like we betrayed him.
Speaker 5: But when you know, when you said there's no baby oil,
Speaker 5: there's olive oil, he starts laughing like okay, like it
Speaker 5: really got him. And it's so funny. Somebody made a
Speaker 5: meme that I sent to Chris. It's to show it
Speaker 5: like you can see his reaction to freak off, and
Speaker 5: it's so funny what it says on top and then
Speaker 5: the what it says on the bottom.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm so excited for this. I love
Speaker 1: like a like, okay, what freak off? No, he looked
Speaker 1: she started roasting him again for no reason, and he
Speaker 1: looked like he was in pain. I know it sounds harsh,
Speaker 1: but it's honestly what he deserves for not being gay.
Speaker 2: I saw that on Twitter with family.
Speaker 1: Tucci's so funny, was.
Speaker 5: Such a great audience member and such a good sport.
Speaker 5: I'm so glad it happened again in the halftime a
Speaker 5: thing when you clone with the clone. He was confused
Speaker 5: that he laughed.
Speaker 1: Again, the old, the old Tucharu.
Speaker 5: I mean, at this point, every award show you host
Speaker 5: from now on needs at least.
Speaker 1: One things were going hard, and that we lightened the load.
Speaker 1: We love take the load off. Who doesn't that? And
Speaker 1: that that like the who we were going to say
Speaker 1: for like you know, the it's the after party is
Speaker 1: gonna suck this year? And then like who we're gonna say?
Speaker 1: You know, you know our Martin short freak off doesn't
Speaker 1: have the same bring to it a Tilda sweat and freakoff.
Speaker 1: We were like, Who's going to have the freak off?
Speaker 1: And then because we were switching jokes around and Martin
Speaker 1: Short was going to be He.
Speaker 3: Was in so many jokes, he was going to be
Speaker 3: a freak off every joke in the monologue.
Speaker 2: We wanted him to be a part of this thing
Speaker 2: so bad. The first day we started, we.
Speaker 1: Knew we landed when where he should because it was
Speaker 1: like someone said, it was like such the or I said,
Speaker 1: and Martin Short is here because we have cameras. Someone said,
Speaker 1: that's such a Martin Short joke. Yes, I love that.
Speaker 5: It was great, And then they widened out after Martin
Speaker 5: was laughing and to show Steve Martin laughing even harder
Speaker 5: at it, that was a great Martin was was fully
Speaker 5: on board with it to its just me. It was
Speaker 5: I I like, truly, it was the greatest night of
Speaker 5: my life.
Speaker 2: So I have no idea how you're feeling.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I feel literally ill right now. My body.
Speaker 1: I'm not even kept your body like sick right now
Speaker 1: and like go puke. I'm like it started. I'm like
Speaker 1: so happy, but I'm feeling physically worn down. I didn't
Speaker 1: eat much yesterday because I was just I just wasn't hungry,
Speaker 1: you know, like when you're like I was too I
Speaker 1: felt too nervous. And then today I've like been just
Speaker 1: I just ate so many blueberries.
Speaker 3: I think it was that too many blueberries, unwashed blueberries.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yesterday, I literally right after dress rehearsal, I started
Speaker 5: having a panic attack. So I took an atavan and
Speaker 5: then Brian said that I was a completely different person.
Speaker 5: Oh my, well, once you were comfortable after act three,
Speaker 5: like with Popular, I I was depleted of anxiety. I
Speaker 5: was so calm that I'm like, I can't even pitch
Speaker 5: jokes now, Like I don't even know where to pull
Speaker 5: them from. I've never been I was like, I was
Speaker 5: like Mexican Pope Cockleve.
Speaker 2: I was just turtles are beautiful.
Speaker 5: Look.
Speaker 3: I looked at you, and you looked like a totally
Speaker 3: different It was around act five or something, and all
Speaker 3: of a sudden, I turned to Sean his hair show.
Speaker 5: Like five in the show, the show, I took an
Speaker 5: ad evan between rehearsal and uh, the show and.
Speaker 3: You're still pumped up. I mean then after the monologue
Speaker 3: and like the halftime show, was pretty much locked in.
Speaker 3: All of a sudden, I turned to Sean. His hair
Speaker 3: is like up and he's just eating a bag of chips,
Speaker 3: and it's just like his soul left his body. I
Speaker 3: was like, Sean, Sean, give us, give us jokes.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I have nothing.
Speaker 1: What caused the panic attack. I was just mean, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's everything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was everything.
Speaker 5: Like I feel like Popular it might have been popular
Speaker 5: where I'm like, oh boy, It's like I felt like
Speaker 5: a mother sending off her son to war.
Speaker 2: I'm like, did you did you guys have doubts.
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm just playing out every scenario in the
Speaker 5: ail Popular.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I don't. I didn't. I thought I.
Speaker 1: Thought brushed so hard. I was like, there's just a way.
Speaker 3: As soon as your family came in and we performed
Speaker 3: it for that was.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's another layer to the story of Popular.
Speaker 2: Was Popular could have?
Speaker 1: It could have?
Speaker 4: It was people were all loving it and having a
Speaker 4: good time. But when when you called your parents in
Speaker 4: and I was like, I was like, what's going on here?
Speaker 4: And you when you performed it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I canceled a set that night or four sets
Speaker 1: that night, but I booked one and I brought the
Speaker 1: audience and I was like, I need to I need
Speaker 1: to see myself if this works, Like because when something
Speaker 1: gets we're pitching it out like and then you perform
Speaker 1: it like we've all already all seen it, like we
Speaker 1: wrote it, you know, so even when the performance is
Speaker 1: all put together, we can all laugh and stuff, but
Speaker 1: there's something we're giving it more or maybe less than
Speaker 1: it deserves. It's just hard to tell what the people
Speaker 1: who wrote it. So I was like, I need I
Speaker 1: texted them they're coming back from dinner. I was like,
Speaker 1: can you come to the writer's room. I have something
Speaker 1: for you to see. You need to let me know
Speaker 1: because they're a great like they just have such great taste.
Speaker 1: They're also like both uninformed and as informed or like
Speaker 1: they're informed, but like they don't get every reference. Like
Speaker 1: they didn't they didn't get My sister didn't know, but
Speaker 1: like the finger holding thing, I think or maybe one
Speaker 1: or two of that. I think she knew that, but
Speaker 1: she didn't know what didn't she know there was some
Speaker 1: reference that I was like, Oh, that surprised me that
Speaker 1: she knows. She's just like they're just like the perfect
Speaker 1: focus grip of Midwest.
Speaker 3: Kind of Midwest Middle America. Yeah, good old fashioned funks.
Speaker 1: Who you want? Who was paying attention to the who
Speaker 1: would be watching the show.
Speaker 3: And it worked killing you were immediately, you were off
Speaker 3: book before the script was written.
Speaker 1: It it was no Curbula was in my bones. It
Speaker 1: was the role I was always meant to play. It was.
Speaker 5: It was so wild how you didn't even look at
Speaker 5: it when they got it.
Speaker 2: You just had it. You had like I don't know
Speaker 2: if it was I was.
Speaker 1: Not off, but it was close. It was. It was
Speaker 1: just fun. It was like I love I want to do,
Speaker 1: Like musical theater is something I've always loved. So even
Speaker 1: getting to touch on it a little bit. And then
Speaker 1: the idea of like a sketch moment of of being
Speaker 1: told you suck is just wonderful to act out because
Speaker 1: it's the voice in my head anyway. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: and I know I get to like say it out
Speaker 1: loud and like and no one else can say it
Speaker 1: about me, but now I have a chance that I
Speaker 1: say it, so it just robs anyone the opportunity to
Speaker 1: say it. Yeah, in any way, And that's not why
Speaker 1: I'm doing it, but talking it out, I'm like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that's kind of a part of it is, like, it's
Speaker 1: just so fun to say this sucks. This sucks so much,
Speaker 1: you're embarrassing yourself in front of Elton John And I.
Speaker 2: Didn't see it, but you mentioned it that Ariana wanted.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, there was a buzz they all Her and
Speaker 5: Cynthia both.
Speaker 1: Were like, they want one. Why is she doing the
Speaker 1: whole song?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: So the internet wanted more to the who did it?
Speaker 3: They've a culture wrote the lyrics.
Speaker 2: To the song.
Speaker 5: New York Magazine wanted the whole song, wanted the whole song.
Speaker 3: And yeah, it just it gives us car at blanche
Speaker 3: if we ever do this again, to have a song.
Speaker 5: But but it's so fun, so mad. It works so
Speaker 5: well because you also commit so hard and your voice
Speaker 5: sounds lovely when you're doing it, to the point where
Speaker 5: it's like, oh, like we are incapable hands.
Speaker 2: Here she is, She's gonna get this is plausible.
Speaker 5: But it's so crazy to me that everyone thinks that
Speaker 5: you're gonna do it.
Speaker 2: Would you go, you're gonna love this.
Speaker 1: That's my only regret is that I should I wish
Speaker 1: I would have said, wicked table, this is for you
Speaker 1: or I wish I would have said wicked table, like
Speaker 1: the audience couldn't tell at home who I was pointing to,
Speaker 1: but me just cockly being like, you're gonna love this.
Speaker 1: It is so funny. I wish there would have been
Speaker 1: something about Cynthia and Arianna you pay close attention, take
Speaker 1: notes like something like that. That was my only regret,
Speaker 1: But it was so fun.
Speaker 2: Here's a free lesson.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: But we did it the right way because I think
Speaker 3: if we did do the entire song this time, then
Speaker 3: people would have been like, oh, that's too much. And
Speaker 3: we just showed that this was a proof of concept.
Speaker 3: This was our sizzle reel for the thing that could
Speaker 3: be in the future.
Speaker 1: Yes, you don't know that you didn't want more of popular,
Speaker 1: but I assure you you did it.
Speaker 2: You did not.
Speaker 1: The only reason you think you want more is because
Speaker 1: we didn't give you.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes it is.
Speaker 1: It's a it's crazy paradox. Yeah, less is more here,
Speaker 1: I promise you. Like everyone's like you should have just
Speaker 1: done a little bit more. I'm like, I promise you it.
Speaker 1: We cut it off. The believing people wanting more is good.
Speaker 3: Classic bad boy boyfriend move. Yeah yeah, yeah, didn't give
Speaker 3: it to him.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you probably did want to bite or a taste
Speaker 5: of insane in the penguin.
Speaker 3: Insane in the Gwain is a great lyric.
Speaker 4: You know what was beautiful about the monologue and all
Speaker 4: the things. I'm getting a text about something different from
Speaker 4: every sing every single person, every single person in one
Speaker 4: of the big texts I'm getting from like people that
Speaker 4: love Nikki and that everybody wanted more Nicki in the show.
Speaker 5: Yes, oh my god, Yes, I'm in a Mets fan
Speaker 5: discord that has ninety people and I was going through
Speaker 5: because they were all watching the Golden Globes and like
Speaker 5: I didn't even say it was right on it, and
Speaker 5: so I was like basically a spy. And then they're like,
Speaker 5: at like eight pm, they're like, where's Nikki gone? Like
Speaker 5: we need more of it, Like they were mad that
Speaker 5: she like kind of disappeared at a point.
Speaker 1: So nice, you know what, we gotta go to break
Speaker 1: and let's continue this conversation when I get back. All right,
Speaker 1: final thought, So what's next?
Speaker 3: The after party? How is that for you? Not a
Speaker 3: non event?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think I like parties. My sister
Speaker 1: and I were both like my mom loves parties, and
Speaker 1: my sister and I were both like we couldn't be
Speaker 1: more not like you like they're too loud. I wanted
Speaker 1: to change out of the dress. I yeah, I wanted
Speaker 1: to sit down. I wanted I wanted to dance. Would
Speaker 1: have been really fun.
Speaker 4: We probably should have gone over there as a group
Speaker 4: because it would have been Was there a dance floor, Yeah,
Speaker 4: there was a dance I didn't even notice. What we
Speaker 4: need to do next year is either have a separate
Speaker 4: section amongst the party for us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like thirty of it.
Speaker 5: There was, and we were all kind of trying to
Speaker 5: we were trying to stand with each other, but it
Speaker 5: was like we were just in people's way and just as.
Speaker 1: People get drunk or they just like feel like more
Speaker 1: entitled to come up and take your time, and like
Speaker 1: we're just telling the story of why they like And
Speaker 1: I think I can speak freely that the besties know
Speaker 1: that I love when people come up and say nice things,
Speaker 1: and like I always invite it, and like would I'm
Speaker 1: never think I'm too cool for a compliment. But there's
Speaker 1: just some people where it's just like it was just
Speaker 1: starting to feel like I was being taken advantage of it.
Speaker 3: There's a type of person that's at an after party
Speaker 3: then that like a.
Speaker 5: Show that Yeah, your fans are different than like Hollywood
Speaker 5: hanger ons. Yeah, there's like an entitlement, a little bit like.
Speaker 1: Take out your phone, take my number, your number.
Speaker 3: Hollywood bullshit, the Hollywood snakes.
Speaker 1: It's not the celebrities, by the way, not that, not that.
Speaker 1: If they were celebrities would have made it okay. These
Speaker 1: are just people that like, I'm like, why do you
Speaker 1: think that I want to be in touch with? Like yeah,
Speaker 1: and this is not If you think I'm talking about you,
Speaker 1: it's probably not you because I did give my information
Speaker 1: to some people because I didn't give if I gave it.
Speaker 1: If I didn't, I didn't give it to you. If
Speaker 1: I gave it to you, I like you, but I
Speaker 1: didn't give it. Yeah, it was just it was just
Speaker 1: a lot. It was just I was just tired. You
Speaker 1: just want to be around people that you can be
Speaker 1: really comfortable with and like next year, take your shoes
Speaker 1: off and take your pants off and just like hang
Speaker 1: out and yeah, you.
Speaker 2: Should throw our own party.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sweatshirts.
Speaker 4: And we should we should throw and immediately get into
Speaker 4: comfortable class.
Speaker 3: That Noah has a question that maybe other people love
Speaker 3: to hear it. Did Harrison Ford really think you were
Speaker 3: a waitress?
Speaker 1: L O L That's so cute. No, No, that was
Speaker 1: part of the joke. That was like built into the
Speaker 1: joke as you know, uh, kind of painting Harrison Ford
Speaker 1: as someone who obvious doesn't know who I am and
Speaker 1: is just you know, begrudgingly even at this award show
Speaker 1: and I'm backstage and I go up to and I'm
Speaker 1: like hi, Harrison, and He's like, I'll take a vodka soda,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, I actually wanted to ask you
Speaker 1: an important question about Hollywood.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it used to be like a like we used
Speaker 5: to have a joke about Harrison Ford before that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: That was like kind of like setting up that character, Yeah,
Speaker 5: setting up that character that we would then pick him
Speaker 5: up and put you down a little bit, ye, so
Speaker 5: that you could do the Indica.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we cut the joke before it, which was
Speaker 1: Harrison Ford is here to show us a cool rock
Speaker 1: he found.
Speaker 4: Can I just say on that note, so many incredible
Speaker 4: decisions you guys, you especially, and then so many great ideas,
Speaker 4: like the writers every writer had a moment or multiple
Speaker 4: moments like just had of like I would I think
Speaker 4: we should do this with like stepping back and giving
Speaker 4: everybody perspective at different times. Yes, and there were moments
Speaker 4: of like killing jokes. It's like maybe we shouldn't do this,
Speaker 4: but so many.
Speaker 3: Good decisions, a complete team effort.
Speaker 4: It was true, so much perspective, Like somebody would be like, hey,
Speaker 4: what if we did it this way, and it's like,
Speaker 4: oh my god, that's the exact way to do it.
Speaker 5: I think every single writer in that room got at
Speaker 5: least one thing into the monologue, and like and like
Speaker 5: and stuff sprinkled throughout the show.
Speaker 3: It was like and there were a lot of things
Speaker 3: that were room babies. Yeah, we just all came up
Speaker 3: with together. I mean, like we were talking to this.
Speaker 3: As we were talking about this in the podcast, there
Speaker 3: was a joke that Nicky came up with on the
Speaker 3: fly at a Japanese restaurant. And now and we talked
Speaker 3: about this, now we can reveal what that joke was.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and that joke was our case freezer. We
Speaker 3: had the list of animals and it was going to
Speaker 3: be sexual at first, and Nicky was like, I don't
Speaker 3: think it should be sexual because the ben affleck things sexual.
Speaker 3: And then we were riffing on what it could possibly
Speaker 3: be for like like thirty minutes and all of a sudden,
Speaker 3: Nicki goes rfkse freezer and then it was like, yes,
Speaker 3: that's it. That's it just came out of your head
Speaker 3: full flash. So that was what we're talking.
Speaker 1: That was so exciting. Yeah, it's it's even for me.
Speaker 1: Getting stuff in the monologue felt like a way. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I got a few things into it. Like it's like
Speaker 1: it's like that. It's so such a great feeling of
Speaker 1: like seeing where you had your influence on it, and
Speaker 1: like it just felt like such. It was just the
Speaker 1: it was the best time. I'm gonna like miss going
Speaker 1: in every day like I had a blast.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 1: It was not I was saying, you know, after the show,
Speaker 1: giving a little you know, speech or whatever, and saying
Speaker 1: like I just I usually dread everything I do, even
Speaker 1: if it's fun, and this is something I did not dread.
Speaker 1: I was like, never was like I gotta go down there.
Speaker 1: You don't have to wear makeup in a writer's room.
Speaker 1: You don't have to look cute. There's snacks. Yea, there's
Speaker 1: enough people that someone's talking. If you don't want to talk,
Speaker 1: you don't have to. Like it's and it's relaxed.
Speaker 4: It's fun, and it's some of the funniest people on
Speaker 4: this planet.
Speaker 2: Were in that laughing the energy, each other laugh the energy.
Speaker 5: Everyone was like, is truly the funniest person and like
Speaker 5: to the point where, like last night when everyone was
Speaker 5: making speeches, Brian made a speech where he was like,
Speaker 5: it was the best Golden Globes ever, and I was like,
Speaker 5: I can't follow that. So what I did was I
Speaker 5: went to a real Housewives logic and I was like,
Speaker 5: I was only mad one day to get some mystery
Speaker 5: because I thought.
Speaker 2: It would get a laugh.
Speaker 4: And everyone it was the only time you didn't get
Speaker 4: a laugh in the last seventy days.
Speaker 1: It was so funny. No, I love that line. Then, Yeah,
Speaker 1: my favorite line of the room that like or not favorable,
Speaker 1: one that just comes to mind is when we were
Speaker 1: like really trying to like take apart a joke and
Speaker 1: we were like kind of almost like tired and like
Speaker 1: just going over this wording that didn't really matter, but
Speaker 1: it did, and it was just arduous and just we
Speaker 1: were all bored with it at this point. Then Noah
Speaker 1: was just like, hey, what, oh, we were putt It
Speaker 1: wasn't that we were putting together the map of the set,
Speaker 1: so we what was that? What is the what is
Speaker 1: the platform that is used? Two? I can't think of words.
Speaker 1: When he put up each little joke was in a
Speaker 1: square and he moved it around the screen.
Speaker 2: Oh the mirror, the mirror.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was using this like God, and we're moving
Speaker 1: all these jokes. No, we should put that there, and
Speaker 1: I really think that that it's better up there. It
Speaker 1: was just like we're getting bogged down by this, and
Speaker 1: I was like, well, why don't we just take a
Speaker 1: quick break and watch the mirror highlights of the year.
Speaker 1: It was like a little it was a little Spotify
Speaker 1: wrapped of mirror, like mirrors trying to mirror this application
Speaker 1: where you like put up you make grid, you make grids.
Speaker 1: Is like tried to do a Spotify wrap for the
Speaker 1: other users to be like, let's see what grids you make.
Speaker 5: And he's like, oh my god, and he just goes, hey.
Speaker 1: Why don't we just take a little time, take a
Speaker 1: little breather, and watch a mirror wrapped of the year.
Speaker 1: And just see what that was so funy.
Speaker 4: His line because you know, again we were trying to
Speaker 4: like parse words and it was like, should we say, uh,
Speaker 4: he is still yes, still needs money, still needs It's
Speaker 4: like I just don't like the still.
Speaker 2: Uh somebody said I still. I just don't like the
Speaker 2: still he needs money.
Speaker 4: And then and then he goes, we can move the
Speaker 4: still to another spots like.
Speaker 2: We needed still in the monogue, lot of.
Speaker 1: Like staying at that and someone wants to keep still,
Speaker 1: but he says, like, we'll put it somewhere else. Defeats
Speaker 1: the purpose of why anyone will. It's so funny. Shout
Speaker 1: out to finger follow him on Twitter and stuff.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I guess closing because we can we can
Speaker 3: end now is just thank you. I mean that what
Speaker 3: an incredible experience this whole year, honestly, between and.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, yeah, this was this was the culmination
Speaker 5: of like truly like the it was the greatest job
Speaker 5: I've ever had.
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, you guys, I feel like Sean and I
Speaker 3: are your sons now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, truly, I feel like.
Speaker 5: We are weird twins and your older sister.
Speaker 1: So much. Thank you guys.
Speaker 2: It was over brothers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll save my thank yous for another day. But
Speaker 1: this was really fun to wrap it up, and I
Speaker 1: truly my body's shutting down. This was actually really fun
Speaker 1: to recap. I don't want anyone to think I was
Speaker 1: in pain the whole time. Just a little bit.
Speaker 3: You can just think that I was in pain.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because you are.
Speaker 1: Because you are. For one day, you weren't like this
Speaker 1: is how you feel all the time. This is terrible.
Speaker 1: I feel I literally feel hungover. It feels like I
Speaker 1: was drinking last night. That's how my body's feeling.
Speaker 3: Well, you were drinking it. You had adrenaline flowing through
Speaker 3: your body for about two weeks. Probably the last.
Speaker 1: Time that I felt this way. I said I'd never
Speaker 1: want to do what caused that again. So this is
Speaker 1: not a good sign. I have a good great Alan
Speaker 1: car is the easy way to quit hosting a worship.

Speaker 1: just because I'm bogged down right now, but if I
Speaker 1: give it a little double tap in a heart, just
Speaker 1: know that that means I saw it, and I read it,
Speaker 1: and I would write more, but I just don't have time,
