Yeah. And yet, you know, so back in the day, one of my jobs as head writer was to decide on which episode we submitted for the Emmys. And I remember Lauren submitted this one for show. And there was a real idea that this was the show for that year, which was the politics year.

And yet, as we talk through this season, there are other episodes that I like a great deal more on the writing side, even though we're gonna talk about sketches I like, just the writing that played hotter. And I feel regret about my decision while also knowing no matter what I picked, The Daily Show was gonna win. Yeah, that was so sad.

And by the way, every year, and I want to stress, I'm sure The Daily Show had an exceptional 2008. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it is so funny all these years later to be like, ah, should have picked Hathaway or Ham. And you're just like, it didn't matter. It didn't matter. But it is fun to know that all these years later, still in my head, I'm like that.

I will say the nice tale of it was, oh, I just might not be an award we're going to win after that year. You know what I mean? And, you know, our future, we would have some nice wins with songwriting. And that was a perfectly lovely way for things to turn out.

I do believe we got a WGA award this year, which was very nice. I'll tell you something, a true story. I was sitting next to Lorne a year we won a WGA award, and Lorne has never been to a WGA award before this or after, but he received a Lifetime Achievement Award that year, and so he was actually at the awards. And when we won the WGA award that year, Lorne did a little fist pump.
