    Seth helped me through the pandemic so much.
  • @studuerson2548
    Aha! That's why Corrections work. Seth turned the audience into the writer's room.
  • I absolutely love Corrections, but my favorite part of it is how much Seth loves it too
  • @damidget41
    Seth’s impression of Mikey the shoe was 100% accurate all along. I’m delighted.
  • @themorales6
    “The amount of A-listers who wanna drink right now and the only thing stopping them is my liver.” 😂 I believe it! It’s both troubling and also CLASSIC comedy.
  • @NewMessage
    "He doesn't do impressions... at least he didn't then." * clutches chest * Impressions Camp was a LIE?!?!?!
  • This makes up for the "see me in 2 weeks". 🥰 Love this show, this staff and the kinda host we need right now.
  • @jimtokheim1422
    Seth is absolutely the best interviewer in late night - no comparison.
  • @CarlieQuinn
    Corrections is truly the most amazing thing to come out of the pandemic.
  • @aleks-33
    It makes me so emotional to know Seth was as changed by the pandemic as we were and he loves Corrections and his YouTube commenters as much as we love him. ❤🥺
  • @d.h.4778
    Seeeeee, you can’t stop corrections. It’s our inside joke and even YOU love it. 100 isn’t enough Seth! It helps everyone feel like a part of your crew, and love you even more..
  • @badass_squirrel
    Thanks to all of you for this. I am one of those European who wakes up every morning with a closer look and a coffee lol Thanks for the attic and thanks for corrections... Thanks for the laugh, Thanks for making us a part of an international family, And amber is right, we can feel the niceness and the love you all share and reflect back on us. I rarely comment but needed it today.
  • @carstenstrand99
    “I showed my wife this and she said it wasn’t funny at all” I have never felt more SEEN
  • @Ktcsr17
    Mikey the shoe and Baez doubting Seth’s impression skills.... all he needed was one stay at camp and now he’s the master!
  • @kellywiffen8505
    I am one of the Europeans who watch Seth in the morning as I eat my breakfast. He helped me deal with the Trump Presidency and all the fall out afterwards. The Late Night hosts were the only ones able to tell it like it was and not worry about trying to appease both sides. That made me feel like I wasn't totally insane or, more importantly, alone
  • @andreac3362
    I miss those Thorn Birds books! Attic shows were so comforting in the Pandemic.
  • Even when at my worst, Seth is the only one who can make me laugh ... his facial expressions are gold ❤
  • @juliest6015
    I suddenly realized I’m always so thankful to have the Late Night with Seth Meyers and Seth Meyers to lift me up in this Dumpster Fire world we live in right now, but this video of a podcast made me realize that I should be, and will be from now on, grateful for ALL of the talent that makes this uplifting magic happen. So thank you to all of the staff of Late Night, and Seth for helping me through the last 9 years.
  • @SueBeka
    We finally know what Mikey da Shoe looks like 👍 😆 Happy Jackal
  • Seth is an empathetic, curious, kind, funny, well-spoken person who is truly at his best when he is laughing kind of at someone or something and somehow everyone is ok with it and in ok the joke. It’s some sort of kindness-magic effect he has put in this whole production. I’ve seen normally super shy stars truly enjoying themselves and also the Nathan Lanes and Martin Shorts of the world having a fabulous stage for their huge personalities simply in seth’s interview. Seth: no notes.
