Seth Meyers on Good Hang with Amy Poehler

The Hang, in Short

Seth Meyers finally started wearing reading glasses six months ago, and he's not happy about it. He tells Amy that trying reading glasses even once is like doing crack cocaine: you're instantly hooked forever. They compare prescriptions (he's at 1.5, she's at 2.0) and their matching tortoise frames before Amy gets real with him. She's got producer Mike Shoemaker calling in from Grand Cayman to ask the tough question: what does Seth think they saw in him back when he was just a feature player at SNL in 2001? Amy warns that Seth, being a talk show host, is way too good at deflecting compliments and turning conversations around. She's determined to make him actually say something nice about himself. Good luck with that.
