Good show, gents. Liked having the comic aboard.
Yes! to Future Islands! If you haven’t yet you should watch their performance of this song on Letterman in ’14.
Awesome interview, but did anyone else catch the contradiction between what Smith was saying about his fearlessness to “go there” about any topic, however taboo, as long as it’s funny, because in his words, if something is funny, people will definitely laugh at it (often involuntarily) …
— and Smith’s absolute unwillingness to play college campuses because today’s college students are such politically correct prudes?
It’s almost as if Smith is saying, hey, if the joke is well written and you deliver it right, people are going to laugh! So do it, baby! Be bold! Take that step! Cross that line!
— Except onto college campuses. Because that way lies madness.
In other words, the new SJW culture has had an effect on Smith’s professional life. A rather considerable one.
