If you can do that accent like Seth Galifianakis and talk in fluent Spanish, I don’t know why, but it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. I do it every once in a while and people either love it or absolutely hate it and ask you to stop… which is even funnier.

[@ls60fd]

When he says "Do you know some actors turn down rolls" to Bruce Willis hits differently because we now know he was taking every roll he could to make money for his family because he knew he didn't have much time before he would be unable to act anymore.

[@protonaccount2811]

The quip about too many roles is just a morbid coincidence. Willis originally appeared on Between Two Ferns around 2010/2011 this was before his health issues and way before he went down his much criticized appearances in various direct-to-streaming projects.

Acid, I feel you. He’s just an actor, but he’s been in movies our entire lives and some have made us laugh and some have made us cry and he just always seemed like a joy when he was interviewed. It is sad that he’s being taken away while still alive. I also wish him as much happiness as possible before the end.

[@kennymac61]

Steve and Conan. They were both all in, whereas the others play the game very very chill. I get the humor, but so much is implied and emoted (thinking of Cera and the thigh massage) but Conan and Steve engage hard; in what seemed like pushing Zack a bit out of his comfort. It all ends up where it ends up, some of Zack's best work is a line or two he has without response, but this reel here is pure gold.
