The Late Late Show with James Corden never fails to entertain, and the latest episode was no exception. From hilarious jokes to surprising revelations, it was a roller coaster of emotions. Let’s dive into some of the highlights from the show.
To start off, Stephen Breyer‘s retirement from the Supreme Court made headlines. James Corden couldn’t resist poking fun at the fact that being a talk show host is probably the only job where you wear fewer robes after retiring. The news also raised speculations about President Biden’s choice for a replacement, leading to witty comments from Merrick Garland.
The surprises continued as Michael Cohen, Donald Trump’s former attorney, claimed that Trump instructed him to ensure that if any of his children were to go to prison, it should be Don Jr. instead of Ivanka. James Corden added his own twist to the situation, imagining Don Jr. teaming up with Cousin Greg and forming alliances in prison. He even asked his staff members who would handle prison best, sparking some humorous responses.
The topic then shifted to marijuana legalization, with Amazon backing a bill to legalize it on a federal level. James Corden humorously compared this partnership between big corporations and Republicans to a father urging his grown-up son to indulge in some recreational activities. Although he refrained from discussing personal experiences, he jokingly mentioned his parents and their potential reactions to being high.
Moving on to politics, the show touched on the investigation into parties hosted by Prime Minister Boris Johnson that possibly violated coronavirus lockdown laws. James Corden didn’t shy away from mocking Johnson’s appearance, suggesting that investigating whether someone had a party in mid-2020 seemed a bit strange. Louie, a guest on the show, expressed his belief that a Boris Johnson party would be incredibly boring.
In a surprising poll result, seven in ten Americans claimed that cooking for their partner feels more intimate than having sex. James Corden playfully joked about the sensual act of layering lasagna akin to the famous pottery scene from “Ghost.” The audience had a good laugh, and everyone had a different reaction to such a unique comparison.
Lastly, the show revealed Minnie Mouse‘s new pantsuit, designed by Stella McCartney, to celebrate Disneyland Paris’s 30th anniversary and Women’s History Month. James Corden couldn’t resist sharing his thoughts on Disneyland Paris, chuckling about the lackluster atmosphere compared to its American counterpart.
The Late Late Show with James Corden always delivers an amusing blend of humor, celebrity interviews, and thought-provoking discussions. From Supreme Court retirements to prison alliances and unexpected poll results, this episode had it all. With James Corden at the helm, viewers can always expect some quality comedy and lively discussions on his talk show.
