I'm missing Seth's show really bad right now from the writers strike! I just love hearing him talk, he's super smart and funny.

Seeing Seth’s parents and brother are my favourite shows!!! I would love to see them every month!!!!

I didn’t know you wrote a children’s book Seth this was interesting and I watched that speech again early hours this morning the trump thing and trumps face was hilarious and look what happened yikes! It’s my birthday today and I’m now a pensioner woo hoo! ♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I'm guessing there's no Jackals in the room... nope. No mention of Corrections or Jackals.

I noticed that, too!

Seth is the best late night host since Conan O'Brien ! I don't even remember Jimmy's but it had to be better than his current show!

Seth is a great interviewee (and interviewer, of course). The interviewer here is very monotone. Glad he didn’t talk much.

11:45 silence your phone for Seth, people!

18:08 I definitely know Amber's laugh. I think I know Shoemaker's laugh, but there's someone who laughs kinda like John Mulaney, but I'm not sure who that is.

[@NouriaDiallo]

It might have been John Mulaney, he worked as a writer there for a while...

[@lynnhettrick7588]

@@NouriaDiallo I think it’s one of the cameramen named Buck. Seth mentioned that Buck is a generous laugher.

Next time please repeat the question from the audience member, we can't really hear it then just have to surmise what was asked.. Thanks!
