Oh, wow, great job, Academy. Solid group of nominees. But maybe you're snubbing someone? Someone like, I don't know, me, Ronny Chieng? Supporting actor in Crazy Rich Asians, available on iTunes and airplanes everywhere? Wait, you genuinely think you've been snubbed? I think I've been, yeah, of course I've been snubbed. I lost to a bunch of no-name hacks.

Come on, Ronnie, those are great actors in this category. Sam Elliott was amazing in A Star Is Born. Sam Elliott. Listen, Trevor, everyone in the business knows his mustache is doing all the acting, okay? I could have grown a mustache like that, but I care too much about the craft to rely on cheap facial props like that, okay? Also, my lip can't do that. Okay, well, fine.

What about Adam Driver in Black Klansman? You mean emo Darth Vader who brought whining to a galaxy far, far away? Big deal, he played a Jewish guy pretending to be in the KKK. I was playing a Chinese person from Hong Kong when I'm really a Chinese person from Malaysia, okay? That's range. Plus, in the movie, I had to play an asshole, when in reality, I'm more of a dick, okay?

And understanding that subtle difference is what separates the best supporting men from the best supporting boys, okay? And what about Mahershala Ali, huh? He just sat in the car for two hours. I do that every time I take a Uber. All I get is two stars. And don't get me started on Richard E. Grant. I bet you're like, who's that, right, Trevor? No, actually, we know him.

He's the veteran actor, he's a character actor, he's been in movies for decades. Okay, well, shut up, Trevor, all right? You know what? I should nominate you for least supportive friend. Besides, this guy's movie only made $8 million. I know Instagram stories that made more money, all right? Last and certainly the least, Sam Rockwell in Vice, again. He already won last year.

After the Cut | Correspondents 2024 - Part 2

Yeah, role models. I don't know about role models, but comedy inspirations, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I always thought Bill Burr was great, and I got to meet him. He messaged me on Facebook one day when I was in Australia, and his profile picture was a car. And so I didn't believe it was him when he messaged me. I was like, I'm getting catfished right now by Bill Burr.
