The fact John can just go on nonsense rants that make no sense but also total sense but yet somehow has reasoning and manages to sound educated the whole time-
it’s the english major in him talking
He's like a smarter, calmer Bill Burr
@@cleverusername9369 I agree. Both of them make a lot of sense while making no sense at all. People just like to get enraged over Bill because he puts it as it is whereas John is smart enough to say things in a way that they remain very clear yet still vague.
he majored in a language that he already spoke
Because he IS educated.
Seth: “Amy Coney Barrett”
John: “Amy Coney Island, yes.”
I was looking for this comment lol
Lol
I had to rewind a couple times for that one. So understated it was easy to not catch it the first time. So deadpan. I love it.
I actually think Mulaney calls her, "Baby Coney Island."
Either way, it is **chef's kiss**
4:17 I had to rewatch it to hear it. Thanks for the comment.
So, John Mulaney is just going to make appearances wearing a trench coat from now on? Because that's fantastic.
Seth got his own jon stewart under the desk
Imagine if John wore this trenchcoat during his kids' special.
Is it?
According to their showrunner, John's a staff writer for as long as he wants now
You should really get Mulder on that!!
John Mulaney should be a guest every week. He and Seth are even better without an audience.
According to Shoemaker he's a staff writer now!!! 🥰
@@geegeezlouis86 Is that true! That's awesome. He should be on camera more too then.
@@ChatterjeePriya Mike's tweet made it sound like Mulaney is just kinda bored and wants to work, seems it will be the arrangement for as long as John wants to do it, which is awesome for us because it sounds like these segments will be regular occurrences!
Petition......and I hope you all come on board.
Even after this whole covid monstrosity is over..........Meyers & Mulaney need to co-host this show from here on out.
With no audience. Ever. I don't need applause to know what's good.
Just the two of them....freeform talking about ghosts and whatnot. I'd watch. Religiously. Not even kidding.
For some reason I read that as „should be a ghost every week“... Don‘t get me wrong, I‘d sign up for that too, Trenchcoat and bad exits and all!
I‘m excited for more Mulaney/Meyers, and this makes it sound like it‘s completely possible to have this occur more often. Thanks for giving me hope, people!
The fact that he was respectful to deceased peoples religions.
ya, respecting religion is a good thing......
He studied religion (and literature) in college haha
@@HannaYoon i thought he was an english major?
His wife is also Jewish.
@@sierra3644 English lit.
“Ruth Bader Ghostburg”
I spit my tea 😂
That was great haha
"Amy Coney Island"
Dead Koch
how is no one else highlighting that??? he slipped it in so smoothly that probably they didn't even noticed it the first time around
Seth: *says anything*
John: I like the way you phrased that.
the way Seth cracks up because John wrote his lines too 🤣
So did i
@@MagicTimeTravel yes🤣
@@MagicTimeTravel thank you for spelling it out for my dumbass. That just makes this whole thing 100 times funnier now. No sarcasm. We should let more comedians be their true weird amazing selves. It’s what makes them special and hilarious and odd and I hope society embraces the genuine weirdness and off the wall thoughts that make comedians so wonderful and entertaining!!! I digress. Thanks for pointing that out 🤣
Since Mulaney wrote the whole thing, he's really saying that he likes the way he himself phrased that 😂
The jewish terminology implies that John's wife has participated in these conversations.
Or Seth?
Or Seth’s wife-he’s not Jewish. Maybe Jew-ish. Check his most excellent Netflix special.
IIRC Mulaney minored in Jewish studies.
or he just lives in new york lol
He minored in theology I believe!
Imagine being a time traveler and this is the only video you have for an explanation for this election
id know everything id need to know
Imagine a Republican, having only this as an explanation for this election...
I love this
It still makes more sense than what comes of of the White House.
If only the explorers of our current time had access to this incredibly accurate and concise information.
John mulaney wearing Julians coat and glasses is the only thing that's keeping me going
i want to see the leather jacket look too
Ok so who’s Julian and what did I miss?
Q STASH I think he’s referring to Julian Casablancas from the strokes, who played when John just hosted snl
@@Dontevenknowfam julian casablancas from the strokes. they were on able when john hosted on halloween and after the show julian gave him is coat lol
Kind of same
This is the kind of hard hitting, fact based reporting we sorely needed in this election.
"I'm a ghost: *booo,* I can't take four more years of this."
This is just John telling people that he went and saw hadestown.
He was somehow correct but also so wrong.
@@kl-1447 I was going to say, isn’t “real” Hades guarded by a three-headed dog called Cerberus?
@@regan3873 Yes, in the original myths. I'm not entirely sure what John Mulaney said
He probably saw it with the original Broadway cast too. Look at that smug face!
Yes because Helltown is Robert Blake Territory
www.imdb.com/title/tt0088533/
This is like how little kids wear their new favorite outfit everywhere all the time
Look how much more confident and suave he is in his little disguise lol i love it
little kids is me. and i’m in my 20s
Well he is a tall child after all
He's nothing but a tall child that looks terrible
“Biden must have travelled to the underworld, crossed the river styx, charmed hydra, the seven headed dog who guards the gates of hell, and played his fife for Persephone, the Queen of hell herself”
What a sentence
"Hades"
The hydra was a multi headed serpent that was vanquished by Heracles. Cerberus was (most often described as) a three headed hound with multiple snakes along its back who guarded the gates to Hades’ realm. Cerberus was also captured by Heracles as the last of his labors but then was returned to it’s post. The analogy of Biden’s to Heracles’s trials certainly does seam fit in this election! I think that both the Hydra and Cerberus fill the rolls of #45 and his administration quite well.
👏🏽
@@marenkuether-ulberg3311 awesome someone else knew! :)
Yeah, he definitely meant Cerberus
I appreciate the way he lounged around onstage like a Burlington mannequin dressed as D.B. Cooper, dropped a whole TED Talk about ghost civic duties on us, then rolled off stage like a loose bag of tangerines. An enchanting, high-waisted lamppost of a man.
This comment deserves more appreciation😂
Calling John a "lamppost of a man" is somehow so perfectly accurate it's scary
i have no idea what this means and yet it is the best thing ive ever seen
+
I'm not reading any further comments today. This one takes the cake and eats it too.
This is the only correct form of political commentary.
I would now like a podcast where John Mulaney and Seth talk about the role of ghosts in modern day politics.
"Look, I'm a ghost- *b o o* - I cant take 4 more years of this."
What John refers to as fieldwork is basically just him using "Hey! Have you ever seen a ghost?" as a conversation starter.
Also, "Ruth Bader Ghostburg" was thrown in so casually, I love this.
Jocelyn Glick he was on a roll with that and Amy Coney Island
I love how serious is tone is when it’s all a joke. It makes it that much better.
I don’t know if we know it’s a joke. Well it’s a joke but is it? Did John McCain haunt this election or not?
the no audience makes it so awkward and so much funnier.
we are there in spirit :)
“Amy Coney Island, yes”
Please explain this one to me .
@@Zaradoingstuff Coney Island is a famous place in America and it’s usually what comes to mind when you hear the word Coney so he’s mocking her name
If anyone can get to the bottom of this ghost business, it's a guy in that jacket.
With big dark glasses
so... julian casablancas?
I don’t understand how Seth is not crying with laughter at everything John is saying
They’ve worked together for years, I’m sure Seth has learned how to keep composed around Mulaney.
you can actually hear him crack up when the camera is on john
That has to be such a hard part of the job. Working with hilarious people, but you can't laugh in the moment. It's a fun version of hell.
The Trump Administration will have submitted this video as "evidence" of election fraud by Monday.
I would bet is edited. I may be wrong, but the way Seth talks right after the punchline is too indiferent, like he has already reacted to the joke.
john so carefully made a distinction between ghosts and ghouls lol
You loved "Amber says What", now get ready for "Mulaney says Boo"
We rly need another Amber episode.
Sarah O'Shea I love Amber. Even with her hit and miss tendencies.
The fact that John was absolutely flying on cocaine at this time and barely remembers it, yet he comes across as so on point and funny, is absolutely flabbergasting. I’m so glad he’s gotten help
You see, he was perfectly balancing it with his also crippling addiction to benzodiazepines. A downer for an upper, so to speak. He was literally trying to self medicate his anxiety and attention issues, the story is horrifying. The moral is: get a good psychiatrist and maybe go with ssris over benzos if you have anxiety.
"A metaphoric basement?" [Puts on sunglasses] " *Hades, yes* "
Plot twist, John is Persephone and Anna is Hades and that’s how he knows Biden went to Hades
We all know Anna is capable of dropkicking someone, and that is entirely Persephone
@@mrluvpups oh for sure she could, I just think she gives off more Hades vibes personally
@@blue_eyedfloozy i guess it just depends on which version of the myth you subscribe to
This is quite possibly the best Mulaney interview I've seen. He is spewing nonsense so eloquently that I understand exactly what he's saying. I'm mad that I'm not best friends with him honestly ://
Finally a genuine discussion about the election between two men who actually know what they’re talking about.
“Your folly is not in your logic but in your theology” such a natural sentence on a comedy show and absolutely glorious.
we need a 50 minutes podcast on this, please.
This really smacks of the British type of humor. All members of Monty Python should feel a sense of pride including the ghost of Chapman.
100% agree. Without the audience it definitely leans HARD in a Python direction
Do not forget the ghost of Jones!
Ryan and Shane: Comedian Edition
AHAHAH YES
Who’s Ryan and who’s Shane? I can’t watch the video right now sadly but I’m guessing Shane is John and Ryan is Seth?
This is all I was thinking. Someone needs to tweet this to them.
@@regan3873 you are wrong my friend.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ten points to you.
i love how you can tell seth was holding in an immense amount of laughter the entire time and it all came trickling out when they finished the bit
This is just John outing himself and his wife as hades and Persephone
Oh for sure!!😂😂
Hades would know the name of his dog. It's Cerberus, not Hydra
Daniel D he’s trying to keep his cover shhhhhhh
is it just me or is this whole video a fever dream
I goddamn love that John got to use the word “ghouls.” When do you get to say that?
“Ghosts (AND GHOULS)”
^^The inclusivity we need in the media
"Well, as with many things, I was psyched and then I overthought it and now I'm annoyed, and that's still where I am at."
John Mulaney will never stop being relatable.
I'm rooting for you, John! Best of luck in rehab and I hope you are able to get help and reach your goal of sobriety.
high John must have loved the word ghouls
"Amy Coney Island" LMAO
Back with Julian's jacket and glasses too.
I'm not convinced he's taken them off yet.
It's the same interview they just didn't put the whole the whole video up.
@@mamemb6258 they talk about the Giuliani four seasons fiasco which happened between both showings. John would have had to come back dressed the same.
also Seth is wearing a different shirt
but why is he in the same outfit? this is hurting my brain maybe he is a ghost
I am feeling so blessed with all the bonus Mulaney & Meyers content!
I want more!!
For my mental wellbeing I'm really going to need these two adorable super smart, quick witted goofs to make this a weekly thing.
@@TalkAsSoftAsChalk Ghost Chat!
@@TalkAsSoftAsChalk APPARENTLY MULANEY IS A WRITER THERE NOW SOHOPEFLLY WE WILL GET MORE OF THEMSOON YAYAYAYA
@@guyguyerson5356 I just that! So amazing he's going to be a staff writer!
“Look, I’m a ghost. Boo.” Spider-Ham at it again 😂😁
this is everything I've ever wanted
you know he was so faded in this
The Giuliani-Borat reference was absolutely excellent! Yikes what a creep.
I'm gonna need to watch this three or four times to fully absorb every joke here. Incredible.
i love the length of time that they devoted to this conversation
It's funny hearing John talk about Hades and Persephone when we all know that John and his wife Annemarie would make the perfect couple to play Hades and Persephone in a tv, movie, or Broadway play. Some of you may know this reference from tumbler (or was it Reddit?).
Or friends of the ghosts of Broadway...
IKR??? John would play an excellent Persephone
@@katiebohan698 Nah, he’s a perfect Hades. Look at all the evidence:
-loves his wife
-has a dog
-pretty chill dude, overall
Annamarie? Perfect Persephone
-easily underestimated
-will cut you
-the more competent one in the relationship
Julian's coat and glasses is just part of Mulaney's personality now
Exactly l had to go back to make sure it wasn’t a re upload
@@Theartsymuslimah175 i had to check seth's shirt to make sure
@@justinelouise2655 so basically from
Now on he will wear this jacket and glasses
John Mulaney wearing Julian’s coat and glasses are just a part of my personality now
@@NatanYael yeah agreed
That was like a little skit interview I loved it. They’ve always had great chemistry
The conversation between these two is the gift that keeps on giving
"Amy Coney Island, yes" 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks John, for coining a phrase never uttered before in history- "Dead Koch Dybbuk" - marvelous
Is nobody talking about the bark-laugh from one of the crew after “OR WAS I?”
Just read the news that John has joined Seth's show as a writer and that made me so happy.
I love that Seth was just like “I know you as a friend and comedian enough to trust that you’ll pull us all through as you take us conversationally off-roading”
My friend died from covid-19 the day before the election. Per state law, her vote counted. I miss her, but she played a role.
I'm sorry for your loss
There must have been so many situations like this. Every time Trump brings up dead people voting, I think about all the people who died due to his terrible leadership in the midst of this pandemic. I’m so sorry your friend was one of those people.
So sorry Daisy A.
Camera: cuts away from Seth
Seth: immediately starts laughing
I like how Seth acts like this is a weekend update.
These are just two guys smoking weed in a college dorm, but on camera.
So that’s what I missed in college! That’s too bad. Clearly I lost the more important of the education I received!
Love that they pulled off a simultaneous “paranormal consistency”
*Cerberus* is the multi-headed dog that guards the gates of the Underworld.
Technically Cerberus is a hydra, though.
@@danielgehring7437 they were bros, but similar in the multiple heads and parents. And they were both part of the 12 labors of Hercules. Hydra was the second and Cerberus the 12th.
@@danielgehring7437 True! Although he did say "hedra". It brought to mind "Hedra and the Multiple Angry Inches".
@@ianrastall Yeah I had to watch that part a few times to know what he was talking about, I suspect he just had a bit of a brainfart since this was clearly pretty extemporaneous. I do see to recall, although I have no idea where, hearing once that y's used to be pronounced that way back in the day so heck, maybe Mulaney's just way way smarter than all of us, lol.
@@danielgehring7437 Cerberus is almost always a dog in the mythology. The amount of heads he has is questionable. In most modern descriptions he’s show to have three but it’s been numbered as many as several hundred. Hydra on the other hand is most commonly shown to be some kind of multi headed dragon although some writers made him more like on upside down octopus. Greek myths are real weird. Anyways they are both children of Typhon, but clearly distinct from each other in every telling of the Underworld and the Trials of Heracles (or Hercules idc)
John summoning his inner Charlie Kelly with “ghosts and ghouls” lmao
Ed Koch as a Jewish Casper. Truer words have never been spoken
That "key catskills block"...
The fact that John Mulaney has a minor in theology scares yet intrigues me
Ok so that *puts sunglasses on* “Hades” had BIG QUEER ENERGY.
Thanks, John- I feel like I learned a lot today
Ghosts AND GHOULS!
In this episode of "John Mulaney: Paranormal Investigator" John examines the role of ghosts in the 2020 election. Next time, John will be trying to contact the ghost of Princess Diana and Dodi Al-Fayed to get them to admit that CLEARLY a 13 year old boy in wyoming could NOT have been the cause of the crash on that tragic french day.
This is tragic. John is so blitzed in this. I'm glad he finally got some help.
@@Abby-dr8vx It's obvious
@@Abby-dr8vx we do now
@@Abby-dr8vx he literally said he was during this period always high
I wonder if im the only one who struggled to enjoy this clip after knowing that john was most likely going through a very tought time with his addiction during this clip. Its an amazingly funny clip but as someone who has watched every john mulaney special, youtube clip and late night show ever its hard to appreciate the comedy knowing its born out of such a tough time for one of my idols and someone whos comedy has gotten me through my own tough times through laughing about such nonserious subjects from how people write happy birthday on cards to jokes about serious things like addiction. I ended up coming to the conclusion that its to enjoy this clip as we will see a lot more of john in the future and hopefully get to see this tall child that killed princess diana in a positive and sober place for a very very long time. I also hope that john adresses the relapse in a future special as it would add so much to his already positive impact on normalizing people getting help for addiction while still struggling but improving. That said if he doesnt i would understand.
finally some good f*cking reporting
The “I love the way you said that” is because John wrote it
Has john been living in the studio since last week
Sounds like he will be. Just read he took a gig writing for Seth in light of fewer gigs during covid.
A discourse between John Mulaney and Shane Madej will be great.
The Banfagiuliani joke probably went over non-Italians' heads.
i choked on my taco 😂
What’s it mean
It did, I’m of Scottish decent, give me a hint please?
I’m not Italian but I’m a New Yorker. Got it.
I love that he knew about dybbuks, it made me forgive him for not knowing Cerberus's name
2:24-2:34
The way he says it like it's so obvious is amazing.
More of this! More of these two having random conversations.
this is EXACTLY the content i come here for
“I’m a ghost boo, I can’t take any more of this” I love the double meaning of boo he used
I could listen to John banter on for hours....
I was interested in Mr, Mulaney’s argument until his hell hound comment. The multi headed hound of hell is Cerberus, Sir! You have been exposed as a charlatan and shall be dismissed as such! I will watch to 2:34 and NO FURTHER. Good Day sir!
Matt C I think Overly Sarcastic Productions did a summary of Dante's Inferno, and legends of the Underworld, and the dog had different names.
@@sophierobinson2738 it’s a slippery slope with OSP, the kids say OSP, from Cerberus to hedra, what’s next? They invade our space, and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn HeRE! This far, no further! And I will make them pay for what they've done!
Fun fact the only way past Cerberus (the Biggest ad best of good boys) without being dead or Heracles (or Hercules idc) is tiny red rubber balls
@@thedudejsb Not bacon? Hm.
@@theactualbajmahal833 it’s a Percy Jackson joke
i'm sad to know John was not exactly healthy at this time, but this is still very very good comedy, some of their best talks i think
Coming back to this interview after John Mulaney’s ‘Baby J’ makes a little more sense… so proud of him
Imagine you’re driving home from work, and your ears are graced by this conversation on a radio talk show.
Cerberus is good friends with Bernie Sanders who is loved by all manner of mythic dog. Even Fengir the chained wolf would just go along with whatever Bernie wants. So yeah I guess the afterlife is pretty left leaning.
True
Petition to Make Mulaney Seth's co-host during the pandemic
I am so freaking happy that John Mulaney has joined the writing staff. John joining the already stellar team has got to make them one of the best in shows airing after 11pm. Maybe the best anywhere.
Oh awesome! Surprised I didn’t know this yet
This was a true delight. You two are such a joy to watch
PARANORMAL CONSISTENCY! DYING! FIGURATIVELY! 😂
1. I love how coat Mulaney can now be looked at as high Mulaney.
2. Idk what hedra is, but isn't cerberus the dog he speaks of?
Mulaney's like a paranormal anthropologist
Is no one going to talk about john trying to roll on the ground yelling "cut to camera 4 cut to camera 4!" 😭😭
