Seth Meyers, without my approval, is taking some time off from Late Night with Seth Meyers. But his people are still distributing social media content.
One of the things they shared with us was his Q&A with the audience and someone asking how Day Drinking with Seth Meyers got started.
The segment originally started when Seth and his Gavin Newsom-looking brother, Josh, would go from bar to bar drinking. Then they realized checking out bars is boring. However, watching them get drunk is not.
So when Good Girls’ Retta asked him if she could go Day Drinking with him, he said yes, and the segment was born. Because of that, many celebrities, like Rihanna, Lizzo, and Paul Rudd, have woken up with some of their worst hangovers.
How many times can we see him and a celebrity get shitfaced every season? Meyers says, “We only do two or three a year cause we feel like at some point, people are going to be like, ‘This guy’s too old.'”
That people is probably his wife, Alexi, who has spent many nights regretting her husband’s decisions.
Who do you want to see Meyers get drunk with? My first choice is Timothy Olyphant. And my second choice is Henry Winkler, who asked to do it even though he doesn’t drink. Now, I wish Betty White were still alive because she probably could have drunk him under the table.
You can watch all but one of the hilarious Day Drinking with Seth Meyers segments on Peacock.
Timothy Olyphant was a guest on Late Night with Seth Meyers, and he once again proved why he needs his own talk show on a cable network. He is one of the top talk show guests out there.
In typical Olyphant fashion, he started off his appearance before Meyers even introduced him. How? By repeatedly interrupting Meyers’ intro of him. Not only did the star of Lucky The Five-Star Weekend, and who is filming Alien: Earth, talk during it, he also drew photos on the cue cards, giving the NBC host the finger in different ways.
So imagine how the interview went after that? Brilliantly! Because they were two friends ribbing on each other until the actor jokingly told his interviewer to “Shut the fuck up!” And yes, it was Justified for him to do so. See what I did there?
The two had drinks the night beforehand, and all I want them to do is go Day Drinking. It would be a laugh riot from the first sip to the last one.
On that note, you can watch all but one of the Seth Meyers Day Drinking episodes on Peacock.
Finally, yesterday was Meyers’ last new episode until September 21st, according to Late Nighter. They’d better have oxygen waiting for him when he has to recap all that happened while he was on vacation.
Every few weeks, Seth Meyers goes Day Drinking with a celebrity, and he gets shitfaced. We know what he looks like drunk at the bar, but what does he look like when he gets home? That is something an audience member from Late Night with Seth Meyers wanted to know.
At first, he shared that his wife took pity on him and gave him this activated charcoal drink that helps him feel less hungover the next day.
However, he shared, “I remember the last time, Alexi was like, ‘You need to take a shower.’ Because I smelled so much like alcohol. And my reaction was like a 1950s Soap Opera star. I was like, ‘I will be sleeping on the couch. I don’t need to come home and be told I smell bad.’ She was like, ‘OMG. You’re a child.'”
Considering she has three children with him, she knows. And I hope she made him sleep on the couch that night and that she hid his charcoal remedy for being a bad boy.
Before Ryan Gosling woke up in a spaceship in Project Hail Mary, he had already been in space when he was abducted by aliens in PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal. How brilliant was the 15-year-old in that 1996 episode?
Before Kurt Russell was kicking ass in movies, he kicked Elvis Presley in the shin in It Happened At The World’s Fair. How cute was the 11-year-old in that 1963 movie?
