    These things don't need narration. We can figure it out. Just play the clips. It's not Entertainment Tonight.

      bro's like: "and then he told a knock knock joke, starting the joke off by saying 'knock knock' to which Letterman responded 'who's there' "

      If they did that they couldn't claim "fair comment" for copyright reasons. Which is fair enough, but they could at least pay a tenth grader to come up with better scripts for the AI to read out :(

I really hope this isn't some fk'ingg 'new' thing but I bet it is.
