What are Trump rallies like? Who would you interview from the past? Isn't Roy doing a good job? Jordan Klepper joins Roy Wood Jr. to answer audience questions in this edition of After The Cut.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You're listening to Comedy Central. Do you ever feel like nervous that they could go left quickly when you're out there? Do you feel nervous that it can go left? My crowd never wants to go left. I will tell you that. There is not an iota of left leaning in most of the crowds that I'm around. You know, the bum rushes at the rallies have increased. Literally four hours ago we were talking to someone,

and a woman in a giant maga hat humped my producer and jumped in front of the camera to try to interrupt the interview. Again, I can handle a random humping on the street, that's fine. As long as they're not armed. But stuff is getting weirder and dicey out there every time I go out. Over here, Mask Man. Question for both of you.

So let's say Comedy Central gave you a time machine and say, hey, you've got to go back and interview. If Comedy Central gave us a time machine, who would we go back in time and interview someone. Who did you go interview? If Comedy Central gave us a time machine, who would we go back in time and interview? How much money do you think Company Central has? Do you have any, that is such an insulting question. Do you know how cheap this network is? This network program 17 hours of the office every single day.

Roy is wearing my suit right now. You think they would invest in time travel technology? No way. If anybody from Comedy Central is watching this right now, that's Jordan Clepp has said, that not me. This is technically this is Roy's hosting week. So as the boss, you've okayed this moment. You have to, heavy as the crowd, Roy would.

If I'm going back in time, man, who would you interview? I gotta go Martin Luther King or Malcolm X, bro. Yeah. I don't want to bring one of them up to the present day and be like, man, you see this shit, man. You got to keep marching. Who, what about you? Well, you took the obvious ones. You know what, I would like to go back. It's a cliche, but I'd like to talk to Abraham Lincoln.

Oh, so... You know what, I would like to go back, it's a cliche, but I'd like to talk to Abraham Lincoln. One, it's nice to talk to somebody over six foot three. Whoa, I like some Lincoln heads over there. Springfield, Illinois, baby! I want to talk to Abraham Lincoln because I think his name has been besmirched in the last 20 years and he has used as like a get me out of being racist card by so many folks on the red like well he was a Republican so I'm like I want to sit Abraham Lincoln down read him the shit that's happening today and be like do you co-sign on this right now? Yes or no thank you for talking to me enjoy

I was taking place in Wisconsin yeah right and Roywood Jr. is is is funny like that that's not a problem but he's also one of the hardest working people in comedy I have ever met and I remember that day you wanted to study how it was done you put in the work you put in the effort and you're as kind as as can be and I think all those things you don't see because you th you th you th you the th you th you the th you th you the th you to the to the to the to the the the the to the the the the to to the the the the the to the to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the te. I. I. te. the the the te. the te. the te. te. the te. the te. te. toe. to. to. the t you're as kind as can be. And I think all those things you don't see because you make it look so easy. And so it's just a testament to hard work and being a good person,

the success that these shows have had. So it's as a fan of the Daily Show getting to watch you do, this is great. Roywood Junior. Thank you, huh. Thank you guys.
