    Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

      I guess Ismo just makes fun of himself. That'll get old pretty fast. Basic rules of stand up, you need a person or group of people to make fun of. Not for every joke, but you can't go for a whole show telling jokes about yourself.

    • @zjusten
      @zjusten 4 роки тому +6

      Each language is its own point of view. When you compare languages, you note the differences. If you can hang the conversation about those differences into a simple enough context ("I've lived here for few years now but I still notice these things..") then you have material for a lifetime.
      In case you're interested in the sense of humour, there are a lot of books written about how different languages express ideas. If you want a bit less serious, translated literature usually retains the POV of the original writer and their language. Classic Russian literature is the go-to example.

    As devoted fans know, Ismo studied physics in a University in Finland. It is also a pretty well known fact that higher education is free in Finland , except your own living etc. costs. But not as well known fact is that Finland is the toughest country to get into university! There are faculties where only 1% of the applicants pass. And in Finland you score 0 points for your dad´s fat wallet or if you are a Olympic gold winner or what have you. You simply need to do really well in the high school (or senior secondary school if you are European) and in the tests to even get into a university. So the mere fact that Ismo has passed the tests to get to study physics, means he must be a smart Alec.
