I remember him saying, during a very long show, if you're still enjoying the show, you have something called Stockholm Syndrome.

And I guess we all do.

And he's hosting the ceremony again in March.

Have you started writing and rehearsing for the Oscars?

It's a high-risk, maybe even low-reward gig, isn't it?

I mean, I think back over the years.

Anybody give you some good tips, whether it's Billy Crystal or anybody else on how to deal with an audience?

I don't even know how big that audience is now.

Not the play.

Where does politics play a role in the way you're thinking about that kind of night?

Does that make sense?

Yeah, but when you watch the cold opens for Saturday Night Live or Jon Stewart on Monday night or any, or Trevor Noah at the Grammys, I think, inspired Trump to even threaten to sue him.

No, I know.

I'm involved in a lawsuit right now.

I'm sure you are.

You wouldn't believe it.

But on what basis?

Are there rules, or is it just human persuasion?

And so it's OK for Nikki Glaser and Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes.

Ever since the Will Smith incident, the slapping incident, do you, and when we were kids, you had the streaker incident.
