I'm no one's idea of a photogenic human being, so this has to be funny.

It's a real who's who of people and media, the people who really, as we like to say, drive the conversation of what America talks about.

If I'm part of the 35 most powerful people, New York is about to become irrelevant.

I'll be trying to poke fun at important things like this.

If I'm part of the 35 most powerful people, New York is about to become irrelevant. Last week, tonight. Last week, tonight.

The promos are great. That's like yesterday's news tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah. I'll be trying to poke fun at important things like this.
