    I’m a man and I would have been curious to hear the audience response, but my job isn’t hosting a talk show. I wouldn’t be surprised if Oprah jumped in.

      Legit wouldn’t be surprised if he saw the obvious answer coming and thought he’d give her a chance to make it funnier and more memorable

      I’ve been called nasty shit for setting up friends for similar joke enhancements by people not familiar with us, I bet pros do it too

        Absolutely - I’m not familiar with this host but Dave Letterman used to butt in all the time. Sometimes he made ridiculous objections and challenges, to create opportunities for bouncing back and forth. When guests got that (Teri Garr, for example) it was always fun to watch them interact. Some others (like Cher) who didn’t get it just thought he was an asshole.
