      Yes surreal is the word I was looking for when going back and watching this after hearing just now that he checked out of rehab. What I don’t understand is, as read many red flags as this video obviously has in retrospect I wonder why Myers agreed to do it. The entire time Myers is clearly pissed and just barely keeping a scowl from his face.
      They are close friends and I’m sure that he had to of been fully aware of what was going on with him. He shouldn’t have done the segment if he was just going to be from the very get-go is clearly seething.
      If your friend is in a spiraling crisis from addiction, it just seems odd to knowingly bring him out on stage and do a skit that you’ve read and clearly hate, As you can tell if you listen to his introduction of the segment
      This particular portion of the three part segment is really the least cringy, it’s really the first 10 minutes That I’m speaking about

      So many shows have improved, without an audience since the covid-19 pandemic.
      If a joke is missed, or doesn’t land, there’s no awkward silence.
      And the people who want intimate interviews like this can watch at their own leisure. Instead of being fed zippy one liners constantly.
      Eg. Stephen Colbert has been a good example also of how a show can improve w/o an audience.
      These types of videos humanise the hosts.

    Seth must've been freaking out internally! His friend John, who Seth knows is really struggling with addiction, is talking about himself in the past tense while discussing what others will say at his funeral and going as far as to explicitly request they don't only say nice things. What a dark encounter for the both of them, one of many I'm guessing sparked the intervention. Glad they're on the other side.

      So I have ADHD, and even years ago before it was publicly known i always thought “man! He looks like he has what i have, he’s so relatable”. Funny thing about ADHD that many people dont know, is that it affects an emotional response in our brain. We feel things more deeply and intensely, often to our own detriment (he asks if he was angry with him or of his opinion of him, because of internalized anxiety and self esteem issues that stem from the natural aspect of ADHD).
      You know what else is funny but not really? ADHD makes you like ten times more susceptible to addiction, because it is a deficiency of dopamine in the brain. We crave stimulation because we have a lack of it internally, so we need more snacks and caffeine and sugar, etc to achieve normal dopamine levels. What else gives a dopamine high?
      Drugs. Methamphetamines. Which is a literal key component in-you guessed it-adhd medication. Stimulant drugs are literally prescribed to people with ADHD to cope with dopamine deficiency.
      Long story short: with dealing with anxiety/self esteem issues (connected to adhd) and dealing with quarantine and stress, he got addicted and it was harder to handle and stop his impulses because of ADHD. because another funny sad thing about adhd is that you have a hard tike controlling your impulses.

      Could you compile some clips and make a public playlist?
      I feel we dimensionally got lucky and John is okay and well but in another timeline he either hit rock bottom or died.

    i really truly appreciate that he is so open and real about therapy and saying he has adhd and anxiety it's nice to not feel alone.

    Wow this was just 7 weeks before the intervention. Fascinating to watch this knowing what happened next. Mulaney processes and talks about his whole experience with drugs, the intervention and rehab brilliantly in Baby J.

    Around 8:45, you can see him open his coat a little with his left hand, to put the small pad of paper into a pocket on the inside of the coat. His reaction to when he realizes where he's putting it, and what might be seen from the outside - you see him clearly react quickly by closing it shut, and opening only very slightly the 2nd time to try to put the pad of paper in there. In fact, he doesn't even put it in the pocket. So its almost like he's on auto-pilot, just trying to hang on to any semblance of sobriety and meaningful presence.
    I say this as someone who has had plenty of problems with addiction and mental health. I've been where he was at here. His new special on netflix is surprisingly relatable... I never got into his stuff until now. Probably because I couldn't see past his detached affect back then 😔

    watching this after he came on Seth post-rehab and recovery. I'm so happy he's happy.
