The other thing you have coming out is a TV show on Peacock, a comedy called The Miniature Wife.

And I have to say, I heard the title, and I said to myself, oh, that must be like a metaphor.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!

It's about a wife.

Like I said at the beginning, I first knew you and became a big fan when you were on The Daily Show.

But I heard a story, I don't know how this could be true, that you ended up appearing on The Daily Show the same day you auditioned for it?

Did it comfort you, maybe, given the circumstances of the day, to know that maybe your ex-girlfriend would see you on this hit, incredibly culturally significant TV show and think to herself, my God, what have I done?

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!

So your new series is The Miniature Wife, and we're going to ask you about a place you usually find miniature brides and grooms on top of wedding cakes.
