[ laughter ] shes whats known in the Republican Party as a moderate [ laughter ] executives at instagram have announced that the app will be renamed instagram from facebook. Seriously . [ light laughter ] why would facebook want to remind people of instagrams connection to an obscenely powerful reviled Parent Company . [ laughter ] i mean, thatd be like, i dont know, naming your kid [ laughter and applause former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper said during an interview on sunday that he may run for senate if his president ial bid is unsuccessful so i guess well just have to wait and see oh, okay, right. [ laughter ] so we know okay [ light laughter ] Hillary Clinton and her daughter, chelsea, are cowriting a new book titled the book of gutsy women not to be confused with trumps new book [ laughter ] olympic swimmer ryan lochte returned to Competitive Swimming over the weekend after a 14month suspension.

[ audience ohs ] this news first reported by an anonymous tip. [ laughter ] and finally, after four years of spewing racist antiimmigrant vitriol, President Trump read a scripted denunciation of racism off the teleprompter yesterday so the New York Times decided to go with this banner headline, trump urges unity versus racism. The times later admitted the headline was flawed and changed it for subsequent editions, which brings us to a segment called, hey [ cheers and applause seth all right lets lets take a look at a few seconds of trump urging unity. In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, and white supremacy. These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate has no place in america seth hey, it doesnt really sound like he was speaking from his heart. I mean, even the painting of George Washington behind him wasnt buying it [ laughter ] you cant say someone urged something when they do it completely without urgency hes already back to quoting fox news and attacking people on twitter again today. A better headline would have been, teleprompter urges unity while old man watches. [ laughter ] i mean, hey, nerk, is trump writing your headlines now . The only things missing from that were the typos. [ laughter ] youre supposed to be the paper of record, not the paper of record scratches trump urges unity . [ record scratch ] [ laughter and applause hey, New York Times, we depend on you we need you to learn the lessons of 2016 and one of them is dont just uncritically repeat whatever this president reads off a teleprompter, because he never means it i mean, the real trump always comes out later in his tweets or his rallies or during full moons. [ light laughter ] this headline was so weird, it was like when you read a newspaper left behind by a time traveler in a scifi movie and realize youre in an alternate timeline trump urges unity . Cleveland browns win super bowl . [ laughter and applause look, New York Times, we love you. We depend on you, and thats why we need you to do better im not saying youll never make mistakes im just hoping youll get wise to trumps act and when you do, i look forward to reading the headline, New York Times wakes the [ bleep ] up.

[ laughter ] not great seth you know what not great seth thats why youre the best friend in the world [ laughter ] this is such a great show, fosse verdon, and i want to talk about the movie as well, but obviously, you are a huge fan of musical theater i imagine that was one of the things that drew you to this project in the first place im always looking for an excuse to sing and dance seth yeah. Find a way to just sort of slip s it into the acting and try and really enjoy so whenever i can get away with it, i do seth and this really has theres a lot of singing and dancing but it is a performance that is rooted in acting and this is a character that i think, you know, a lot of people knew, fosse. Less people knew verdon and so this show is very entertaining but its also a nice education to a person that had such a big role in musical theater over the years. I just want people to be able to pronounce her name correctly. Seth yeah. Yeah. [ laughter ] seth how am i doing . Am i doing it all right . Lets try it. Seth gwen verdon very good seth okay, great yeah. Seth and i was very worried. I was like, oh, no, i hope its not gwyn. Silent p. [ laughter ] seth sam rockwell was here and he was talking about the fact that you had a slight advantage on the dancing because you danced as a kid. Was it an advantage . Right, but have you seen him at a party seth hes yeah. Sam rockwell hes like a dirty dancer. Seth yeah. Yeah. Seth and he sort of dances with very little prompting oh, yeah. Seth yeah. He loves to dance seth i mean, its liket doesnt even nto like, drops a plate in a musical way. [ laughter ] yeah. Seth i feel like he would dance to that. Uses it in an excuse to move. Yeah seth what dance did you take as a k i took tap dance as a kid seth gotcha. Yeah, i took a lot of tap dance as a kid and then in one episode, in the seventh episode, it came in handy and they threw me a few tap steps and i got to call my mom and say, it was all worth it. [ laughter ] seth but there had been a long gap from your last day of tap to this project . 25 years. Seth 25 years. Yeah. But it was still in there. Seth yeah. Thats yeah. Interestingly. Seth my son goes to a ballet class, although its really based on the time i went, it looks more like hopping. [ laughter ] theres a lot of well, that will come in handy later. Seth yeah, thats true you never know when you need to have a hop in your back pocket [ laughter ] yeah. Seth yeah. Really hop out of danger [ laughter ] and then also, tommy kail who directed hamilton and linmanuel miranda, they both produced this. Were you as is it safe to say you were as big of a hamilton fan as everyone else absolutely. Seth h. No, i when i had first met lin, i sat next to him at an awards thing and i screamed when i saw him when i sat down next to him but i thought it was going to be my only chance to ever interact with him and had to make sure that i came back with a lot of things for the children in my life [ laughter ] and so he, like, talked into the phone and said happy birthday and then he made a video and we went into a special place and took some pictures together. Seth so you, like, abducted him basically . Because i thought it was going to be, like, one and done. Yeah [ laughter ] but he was very goodhumored about it and but then when i realized that we were going to be working together, i had to calm down. Seth yeah. You realized, youre like, wow, i really i could have paced all this stuff over the course of months. [ laughter ] yeah, and not scared him. [ laughter ] seth i like when you said you took him to a special place. Because that sounds like a van, yeah i said we need to go somewhere quiet. [ laughter ] seth i happen to have brought my van to the award show [ laughter ] and my best friend is in the back waiting for you. [ laughter ] this film after the wedding is this is based on a danish film and its a remake of sorts but the gender roles are flipped and you get to work, obviously, with Julianne Moore how was that experience . It was well, the only thing that was really difficult about it is that we were are in an adversarial position in the film and were both sort of fighting for our points of view when really all you want to do is kind of, like, cuddle. Seth yeah, right [ laughter ] which is so warm and so generous and, you know, i just wanted to be her friend. So i really had to put that aside. Seth gotcha. Do you think, though, at the end of the project you feel friendlier with her than when it started . Yeah, we cuddled. Seth thats good okay, good [ laughter ] you this is a very serious film its a very beautiful film and your character is coming in from india and you shot in india. Had you been in india before interestingly, i had. I took my daughter there when she was 2 1 2. Seth wow she still actually had recollections of it. So its a place that ive always been interested in and really wanted to experience and wanted her to experience. And then we got to go back again, this time in business class, and [ laughter ] which seth do you recommend that, of the two i recommend it. Seth yeah. It actually changes the whole experience seth yeah. [ laughter ] because you dont, well, yeah, well, you know, you dont show up as grumpy. Seth yes do you what is your if you had a main takeaway of your time in india based on having two trips now . Honestly . Seth yeah. The thing that i felt like when we when we left, was if we cant be happy here in this country with all of our advantages and our clean water and our soft beds and the roofs over our heads, what hope does the rest of the world have the poverty that you see there is truly baffling. And you come back home and you realize were so lucky to have the problems that we think we do seth yeah. It must be nice to have perspective like that. [ cheers and applause your your character is sort of someone who does not need many comforts likes to be barefoot is it true that you also like to be barefoot . Even in new york city seth you really do its been a while its been a while. Seth yeah. Im a little older now, but, yeah seth right, but in your younger new york days you would go barefoot around town . Yes seth yeah. Did that draw attention . [ light laughter ] i dont think so. No, not that i remember. Seth i mean, i guess a lots going on in new york, but if i saw someone with no shoes on in the street but i was holding shoes seth okay. Thats better. No, not like walking
