Druski's video skit, 'How Conservative Women in America Act,' went viral, showcasing a parody of Erika Kirk with over 7.8 million views on Instagram and 28 million on Facebook.
I started in stand-up because it felt like the most direct way to connect with people. There's no filter. You go on stage, and you find out very quickly if something works. That shaped everything for me. It forced me to be honest. If you're not honest, the audience knows. That idea still drives how I work today.
He is, without doubt, the cleverest host they've had in years, and probably the funniest too. Who else could recreate the famous chase sequence from Weapons - the freakiest horror of 2025 - with the same madcap energy and wit, and not have it be the cringiest sketch of awards season?
You've got to show [people] government can work. Shapiro made a straightforward but understandable case, arguing that not solving problems can lead to an increase in cynicism. He mentioned the evolution of the permitting system in Pennsylvania under his tenure as governor as one example of demonstrating governmental effectiveness and addressing constituent concerns through tangible policy improvements.
Michael has become a must-follow voice in queer comedy thanks to his sharp observations, deeply relatable videos, and his ability to capture the messiness, humor, and contradictions of gay culture. Whether he is skewering dating apps, touring internationally, or turning dumpsters, French onion dip, and therapy into comedy gold, his work resonates because it is honest and very funny.
I think of my dad, the 21-year-old broadcast journalism major said, explaining that he is a business owner who works in finance, not exactly the most trendy, fashionable guy. Watching from home was the subject of the joke himself: McCrary Mac Lowe. His reaction, a blend of disbelief and amusement, was captured by his wife, Shannon, who filmed the moment and later posted it to Instagram.
Oprah Winfrey has spent years turning her private health journey into a public conversation - and, at times, a lucrative business. The billionaire, real-estate mogul, talk-show host, journalist, actor, and producer has just released her 12th book: "Enough: Your Health, Your Weight, and What It's Like To Be Free." The book, which she co-authored with Dr. Ania M. Jastreboff, a doctor and professor at Yale's School of Medicine, dives into the role of GLP-1 drugs to facilitate weight loss.
Steve Martin Writes the Written Word is an aptly-named collection and excellent introduction to the comedian's best writings, including some new material. In another piece, he makes the list of 100 greatest books he read laugh out loud funny with fake titles such as "Omelet: Olga - Mnemonic Devices for Remembering Waitress' Names" and "Marijuana! Totally Harmless (can't remember author)."
A washed-up reality star and her live-in entourage of misfits scramble to rehab her image and reboot her career. When her estranged daughter unexpectedly moves into their crumbling Manhattan townhouse, the TV has-been is confronted with the one role she's spent her entire life avoiding: motherhood.
Under the deal, Wayans will produce original content for the platform, appearing in livestreams, hosting interactive sessions and launching his own multiplayer Play Together room. His addition comes shortly after NBA star James Harden joined the company as its first Premier Creator, signaling a broader push to mix star power with online play. Best known for his long career as an actor, writer and producer, Wayans plans to use the platform to meet fans in a more direct way.
Conan O'Brien is a singular and outstanding American humorist. His work, deeply rooted in close listening and keen observation, creates joyful connections between and among ideas and people. I look forward to sharing the stage with him in Tercentenary Theatre later this year. Harvard is tremendously fortunate to call him one of our own.
Davidson's debut episode, featuring Machine Gun Kelly, is assembled from the rough, requisite symbols of podcasting: host and guest sunk into plush, beat-up chairs vaguely facing each other, chatting and smoking cigarettes in a space that's presented as Davidson's garage, Benjamin Moore paint tubs doubling as an ashtray stand. Good pals, their conversation is loose and circuitous; their discussion drifts from adventures while getting high, stints in rehab, and - because this is the first episode - what a podcast even is.
Colbert will appear on Meyers's show as a guest. CBS had announced in July that The Late Show would come to an end in May, more than 30 years after its debut in 1993 under David Letterman. It's not just the end of the show. It is the end of the Late Show on CBS. I'm not being replaced this is all just going away, Colbert told his audience in July. A date for the final episode, however, had not been revealed.
He had already picked on me several times for laughing too loud, too readily (that wasn't even a joke, he chastised me at one point). I was trying hard to suppress my laughter to hold it in, to hold it back, to not fully express the joy I was feeling. I was being somewhat successful. And then I wasn't. Everyone in the audience was laughing but I was laughing too much.
Readers who saw my previous post will recall its focus on a recurring pattern of laughter and humor found during my deep dive into the humor of the Seinfeld series. I wondered why we tend to laugh at various things going into our bodies and tried to explain why we might be so inclined using the Mutual Vulnerability Theory of Laughter.
