He is joined by fellow comedians Tiffany Haddish, and Alonzo Bodden, who are regular correspondents on the show.

The show comprises of studio guest interviews, pre-recorded sketches, and segments featuring various animals from around the world. These animals range from household pets like cats and dogs to more exotic creatures like elephants, bald eagles, and even dancing horses.
