    Roy Wood Jr.'s correspondents' dinner set was excellent.

      I just checked it out, and he starts right out with such a perfect joke, damn 😂 Just glad to see a comedian daring to go there, beyond just taking sides.

      Roy killed it at the Correspondent's Dinner. He deserves to be the new host of The Daily Show.

      Actually way better than Conan’s.

    This is one of the most analytical discussions of a comedy set I've ever heard. You have to be a genius to do the Correspondent's Dinner.

    I can't imagine working on the spot like Conan and Roy, chopping and changing your jokes, editing your script on the spot! That's high pressure environment, but makes them geniuses in their line of work. Very neat to hear how Roy stacked his set, to make the jokes progress in levels, and to go after people on both sides and how to time it right. There's a science behind all this!

    Super interesting to hear the crafting of the order of jokes and the thoughts behind it. Really makes you appreciate even more the skill that is required to do what they do and how they make it seem so effortless, like it's just a natural conversation.

      Thought the exact thing. Love listening to comedians talk through the technical aspects of a set.

  • @iomaelstrom5681

    Great to listen to Conan talk about the craft of comedy. It’s easy to assume joke writing and performance structure are just a given with these people. It’s a difficult set of skills and Conan is world class with presentation. Love this timeline, thank you for all of the great content and love Team Coco ❤

    That killing with kindness part is so hilarious because you can picture it happening. I can guess how infuriating it is when you're busy doing something then someone tries to be cordial and converses with you at the same time, which would be great if the talk is happening on another occasion.

  • @rscamp81

    Roy is awesome, so glad Conan got him on the show!

    Roy Wood Jr and Jordan Klepper for Daily Show Hosts! Have 2 anchors like most news shows. They banter back and forth, have them both try to do a news story about the other's culture. Like Roy does some white people news story, Jordan does something about a black entertainer. It would be perfect.

    I always love the anxieties and inner workings of the comedian mind in these awkward situations and their fear of bombing. There's nothing greater than comedian's telling each other about gigs where they bombed. IConan having to follow the most powerful man in the world that's also charismatic and knows how to work an audience is hilarious.

    Roy, it was an amazing speech. Funny, on the point and the serious note hopefully got some in that room and beyond to overthink their political agendas.
    Love & Peace from Germany 🤘💜

    I think Roy's set was the best correspondence set I've seen. None were bad.. Seth Meyer's was funny scorching t-rump but he definitely caused him to run for President..

    Roy absolutely destroyed.
    He was hilarious(arguably the funniest host ever, except maybe Norm), but he also was serious and tried to use the opportunity to speak directly to the people who need to fix/stop what they're doing in journalism

    The Clarence Thomas NFT joke was priceless. Unlike Clarence himself who absolutely has a price.

    The idea of having comics at the front of the stage watching another comic do their set sounds like the premise of a good comic show. 3 comics, randomly drawn to see who goes in what order. #greenlight it.

    Roys set was one of the funnier sets I've seen from anyone in the past few years. I genuinely think Chappelle wouldn't have been as funny,

    It would never happen, but it would be cool to see Katt Williams do the correspondence dinner. 🤔🤓

  • @cleverusername9369
    @cleverusername9369 Před 10 měsíci +1

    This was a very interesting discussion, but possibly the least funny episode. Roy was obviously more interested in having a deep conversation, which is absolutely fine and I enjoyed it a lot, but it wasn't as funny an episode as I may have been hoping for. Please don't get me wrong, listening to Roy was riveting. Just a different kind of episode.

    Donald Trump did not attend one of these dinners in either of those awful four years. That's some kinda' lame right there.
