On a recent episode of “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” the energy was high as the host and his guests, Cedric the Entertainer and Robin, engaged in a lively conversation about hats and fashion choices. Cedric, known for his stylish headwear, was praised by James and Robin for his hat-wearing abilities. From baseball caps to fedoras, Cedric seemed to effortlessly pull off any look, leaving James wondering if he could do the same.
As the conversation evolved, James expressed his hesitation to embrace hats as a part of his everyday style. However, he conceded that he might be able to rock a western hat or a fedora if he were in a western movie. Cedric and Robin encouraged James to give it a try, much to the enjoyment of the audience.
The chat show banter continued with the hosts playfully teasing each other about their fashion choices. James, known for his casual attire, joked about the idea of pairing a fedora with his usual sweatpants and sweater ensemble. It seemed like the idea of James wearing a fedora on the show amused both Cedric and Robin, with the latter expressing his curiosity and support for the fashion experiment.
After the playful hat discussion, the talk show transitioned to the news segment, where James humorously commented on current events. He touched on the recent oil production cuts announced by Russia and Saudi Arabia, which is expected to affect gas prices. James cheekily likened the situation to “liquid Donald Trump,” drawing laughter from the audience.
In a surprising turn, the conversation shifted to energy drinks. James and his guests delved into a discussion about the rise in energy drink sales during the pandemic. The talk show host amusingly questioned the need for constant energy and jokingly suggested that people just want to feel something. The audience erupted with laughter as James playfully reminisced about the bygone era of “good old-fashioned cocaine.”
The segment continued with James highlighting a new trend in energy drinks, mentioning that sales have grown by 56 percent since the summer of 2019. He highlighted how newer varieties offer better taste, added vitamins, and reduced sugar content. James couldn’t help but sarcastically remark on the irony of people gravitating towards gentler and healthier energy drinks while simultaneously refusing COVID-19 vaccines due to concerns about unknown chemicals.
The talk show took a lighthearted twist as James praised the graphics department for their font choice in a recent graphic. He humorously praised their attention to detail and even engaged the audience in voting for the appropriate sound effect to commend their work.
Switching gears, James entertained the audience with a story about a Canadian mayor’s election. The twist? The mayor’s long-lost brother suddenly entered the race, causing an unexpected rivalry. James expressed his delight in the peculiar situation and gleefully imagined their mother having the final say in the election.
To end the show on a lighter note, James shared a quirky news story about a New Jersey man selling a 35-foot inflatable figure of Michael Myers, the iconic character from the Halloween movies, as a Halloween lawn decoration. He jokingly cautioned the audience that the decoration might not stab them, but it could result in their spouse stabbing them over the hefty price tag.
The episode of “The Late Late Show with James Corden” was filled with laughter and playful banter. From hat fashion to energy drinks and unexpected election rivalries, James Corden and his guests kept the audience entertained throughout the show. As always, James showcased his talent for delivering witty commentary on current events, leaving viewers amused and eagerly awaiting the next episode.
