Maybe its his hair, but John has grown from "perpetually youthful carnival barker" to "Jason Bateman gamely goes to work even though the caffeine pills don't work on him anymore" Can't wait to see what's next!
I asked for Simon’s books for Xmas. If I don’t get them, I will buy them myself. Ever since Simon’s conversation on Family Trips, I’ve wanted to read his work
I have tickets for All In in late January. The cast I'll be seeing is Lin Manuel Miranda, Aidy Bryant, Nick Kroll and Andrew Rannells. Looking forward to it.
Simon ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Miss Kim is the best she is living her life as the best i start to love her, what a character of story John found him self dealing with😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He posted a pix on ig a few days ago of him laying on a couch and I was so confused bu the position his feet were in lol idk whats going on with those ankles
Simon Rich may be this generation's Larry David: both have two first names, both are atheist jewish new yorkers. both are prolific genius comedy writing talents, both have a more-famous problematic performer friend whom they've propped up for years. i think John Mulaney might be Simon Rich's lucky friend the way jerry seinfeld is for larry david
For $300 a seat for back of the balcony, you would think they would at least bring new stories and memorize them instead of reading a book with zero staging
Delighted to see John carrying on the bit of asking Seth if he knows members of his wife's Vietnamese family
Someone should tell Simon that former SNL writers can come back to the show and get free haircuts

I love when Seth has his friends on!
Simon Rich is a wonderful writer. His books are a delight.
I love that John is living his best life

They're all so good - definitely worth reading
Any farm and free range chickens made me laugh out loud while I was literally by myself.
Sooo good
Same w me I have read almost all of his work
Glory Days' audiobook is read by John Mulaney - it's like a new Mulaney album, with all of Simon's writing, highly recommend
@ thank you for the recommendation! I’ll check it out

Wow, what a lineup! That’s gonna be one hell of a show!
Simon's chosen hairstyle has baffled hairdressers, stylists and aerospace engineers since his time in college.
he went to the barber and said "give me the Ken Burns or Rodney Bingenheimer".
@@mst3kpimp Ken Burns came immediately to mind
Wow, a basic mod haircut. INSANE amirite guys?
i believe the Paul Mitchel school of stylists call it the German Shepard
@@mst3kpimp also has fallout 3 npc vibes
I could NOT LOVE ALL 3 OF THEM MORE
Lifelong Bears fan here: I really enjoyed this conversation, especially the part about Richard Kind.
Richard Kind is from my hometown, Levittown Pa.
I lived in Levittown when I was a kid. Was there from '78 to '83. Lived in Forsythia Gate.
Thank you guys much for and happy merry everything 🥂
The first about 2 minutes of this, Simon looks like he was told by John and Seth if he doesn't smile enough they'll kill him
Simon is a smiley kind of guy! You can see it in his many, many interviews
@@Xanderall If I was born into privilege and funneled into success, I'd feel pretty good too.
@@user82938I mean he’s crazy talented and delightful. He’s from a very prominent literati kind of family.
But his writing is hilarious.
❤ this interview/ chat! Idk what’s up with the trolls. Appearances are irrelevant. They are hilarious, talented writers!
2:23 So, one could say he is very.....kind?
Half way expected seth to respond to Johns final story with,
"Well there goes that premise, glad it worked out for you."
Simon ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Miss Kim is the best she is living her life as the best i start to love her, what a character of story John found him self dealing with😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not Jason Bateman, John looks like Jason. His edges aren't so pointy. 😂
Love Miss Kim.
I once shared a buffet with Richard Kind.
3:20 lmfao
John's ankle was achieving some unusual angles during the mother-in-law story?
He posted a pix on ig a few days ago of him laying on a couch and I was so confused bu the position his feet were in lol idk whats going on with those ankles
I’m gonna say it because nobody else will. The Chin and Simon Rich are on the show tonight. 😂😂
2:01

As others said, NOT. A. PLAY.
13 or 30?
It’s not a play, it’s a reading. They’re just sitting there on stage reading scripts. No costumes no sets, just broadway prices for a staged reading
I can do this and I want to do this
I don't know how people expected anything else with those casts
🧐 🤣
Theres was a play called Love Letters where it was just two people sitting reading letters. Who care that theyre sitting down?
For $300 a seat for back of the balcony, you would think they would at least bring new stories and memorize them instead of reading a book with zero staging
Weird how john looks like he’s slightly purple, very weird skin colour
I’m not shitting on Seth but I wonder when everyone will credit Howard stern with realizing the intrigue of talking about SNL behind the scenes
