What you're about to hear is an audio recording of a recent episode of Seth Myeers Corrections To watch new episodes of Corrections, subscribe to the Late Night YouTube channel. In the year twenty twenty one, late night talk show host Seth Myers unleashed the full fury of the internet with the utterance of a single word. Leg L These are the stories of one man's descent into the bowels of the internet and his courageed to take on the most dangerous people on Earth YouTube commenters Recorded every Thursday after the audience has left Studio HG and witnessed only by scattered members of the late night staff and crew This is Corrections, the podcast ions Episode one hundred and seventy seven Week of Monday, june fifteenth twenty twenty six Hey, I sent Chelsea the wrong correction script She she printed up the one I sent her. it's not her fault So that's why I have my computer. And I just think when you look back at the last few corrections, anyone 'm worried that this is on cruise control I mean, it's going worse than ever Like anybody that was feared that it would just sort of, you know, get into a rut You know, going through the motions. I mean, yes, a rut, but not going through the motions. The motions are different every week. It's pronounced Coaca, not cloaca. I don't think that's why the joke didn't work I also think that the audience we had in the house that night probablyably didn't know what it was no matter how I pronounced it. Now of course, the Ctions's comments were loaded up with people. If you do open Ale F for Coaca this week It's going to freeze your computer. That's how many people wrote it. And the reason the Jackals caught it, and again, is you're smarter than our regular audience And that's what makes me so mad because you don't use that intelligence to better the world. You just use it to worsen my day Someone wrote in, Can't wait for Seth to have to go on corrections and say that ducks actually have nine inch corkscrew penises. Well, Your wait is over We said that Donald Trump wants to be an MMA fighter so badly that he might suggest a face off type situation. and accurately pointed out, that wouldn't really solve the problem for him. He would just have a MMA fighter's face on a Donald Trump body and I feel like thats it seems like faces have like the least to do with success in the octagon or whatever it is DC, we talked about how how Washington, DC smelled in seventeen seventy six. DC did not exist. In seventeen seventy six It wasn't established until seventeen ninety. Before that, the capitol was in Philadelphia But then the Eagles won and the locals burned it to the ground. I remember my town Bedford, New Hampshire, there's a sign It says EST and then the year And I remember once I was in the back seat, my brother said, What is ESDMA? And I go, And I go, that's when it's estimated that this town was formed. My Dad's was like, no, it's not estimated. It's when it was established And I remember even as a kid band like M All right They're sure. Uh, d da dam. So we said that the u Reflecting pool. was sixteen hundred and eighteen meters. Somebody wrote in one sixteen hundred and eighteen meters is a mile. I know because the sixteen fifty was my event, Brag. And the reflecting pool is only two thousand twenty eight feet, which is six hundred eighteen meters. or a three eighths of a mile. Obviously, we got that wrong. We could have Googled the distance U I got it right in a closer look, but NBC has asked that for all distance related stuff, we use old Jack Um O Jacks, one of our crew members, who is really confident. about his ability to like look at a photo of anything and tell you how long it is. He he always says he'll get it within a thousand meters, which he technically did this time Um But u He's not You know, I don't even mind that he's wrong. He's just not pleasant to deal with You'll be like, O Jack, how long is this? And he's like, He always covers one eye when he does it But, you know, NBC said, we said, why can't we Google it? And they said, The tokens are too expensive Jackals in recent week have told me that Mother Teresa was a terrible person and also the Gandhi was a terrible person. And you know, it made me think, you guys give me a hard time? Maybe I'm not so bad Also, a lot of people said Lorna Bobbt, we told a Loranna Bobb a joke. she was treated terribly. She was a victim. You agreed, I concur Did you hear? Lorenna Bobbittt was in a car accident Yeah Apparently, some dick cut her off All right Let's address the elephant in the room. Last week's correction was mostly me trying and failing to remember the previous week's guests. I own this like confidently in a previous corrections. asked Shoemaker offered to shhoemaker that at any time he could yell out, name them, and I would have to name the guests U With that said, he me He waited for a week where they. Say the name. You really think I wouldn't have built a memory palace You really think that's literally what the rest of this was was this will never happen again. All right, first of all, we had three Broadway babies, Broadway babies, AKA, Oh, AKA, Anna Gastyire, Care Washington, Alden Earrenrich. We had three nicks. Carmelo Anthony, OG and Annobbe, and Cat, Carlin Thy Towns. Oho, the Nicks. You know what I do? I root, root, root for the Nnicks. Stehven root OGianaobi's tippin was wild. Olivia wild The next went ham. What kind of ham? Chef Hm L Way Caleb Harron, Kume Nanjani. Boom I cannot believe. I cannot believe, you thought I wouldn't be ready for this week. now next week Now that I got it, I feel better about now I'm just gonna to read comments about what people thought about last week's Um twenty six minute corrections. Oh, we are so back dot dot dot dot dot dot dot oh, never mind Uh I will say it's good that I didn't get it 'cause in my head, I was like If I get this, I'm gonna do the Denzel Washington speech from Training Day And I probably remember that speech about as well as I remembered last week's guess. I be like King Kong doesn't have anything on me I climb buildings better Swap the planes. U It did take me way too long to come up with Jenny Hgel who works here And I think everybody agrees where I should say everybody breathed a sigh of relief when I got it 'causeuse it would have been a thing. Somemer wrote Trp isn't noding off in meetings. He's also trying to remember Seth's guests Um You should totally submit this one for the Emmys. I mean, the outcome won't change, but it's nice to know that they'd have to suffer through the same thing we just did Um Jankks Sarah Jankks Daley left in the middle of corrections and a lot of people in the comments There was by the way, I didn't mean to call her out, but was it was like right when I was getting the names And it was a distraction But I've noticed recently that people don't know, I think people know our staff very well, but they often in the comments spell their names differently than their names are actually spelled. So just for the future, if you want to know, this is how you spell bays This is how you spell Jenx. And this is how you spell a shoemaker U I don't u Watch corrections back you know, like Unlike a lot of you, I don't have twenty six minutes for that bll S people are like I thought this was a bit that Seth was doing. but I don't think he's a good enough actor to sweat through his shirt I really cannot stress enough how uncomfortable last week was for me I really At one point, I wanted to tell Shoumemaker to off And I couldn't remember his name. It's never gonna happen again. Takaking it really serious. I wantna thank Bees McKeever who sent in a late night anti panic sweatstick. called Chase That Emmy. And you knowre we're going take a summer hiatus. and you know, just a reminder that we also miss doing the show and we wish we could be here with you guys. We like this very much. I'm very happy. I got it write today and I want to apologize to, you know, again, the guest I missed last week, that you know, whoever you are.
