So race-based humor is sensitive terrain,

Gerund

who are experts at navigating it-- Roy Wood Jr.

and keep an open mind, it can really pay off.

That's why Jordan and I work so well together on camera,

because our friendship exists off camera.

we were doing a stand-up gig at this college.

Yeah. First time this guy's even been to college.

Almost as powerful as Roy's unregistered handgun.

But I see what you're doing, and it's okay.

When Jordan confronts me, it forces me to keep an open mind.

it force me to keep an open cash register.

-(Klepper chuckling) -What's your problem?!

I'm only saying this because we're friends.

The point is, as we saw with de Blasio and Clinton,

these types of jokes could be misunderstood

So save the CPT jokes for when you're among friends.

And making generalizations about an entire race

can sound like you're saying all black people are the same,

Like Roy, remember when we were down in Austin?

-I've never been to Austin. -We were playing pool together.

I hate pool. You're thinking of another black guy.

We were talking about when we were in high school together.

-We met six months ago. -Remember? -(laughter)

-and you played all the positions. -NOAH: Jordan?

Jordan, do you think all black people are the same?

No, no. Okay, I see what you're doing right there.

uh, you were the hall monitor, you were the bus driver,

You and my dad would have cigars and talk about Vietnam together.

I can't believe I'm losing my best friend

By the way, you are doing a great job hosting this show.

-(laughter) -Jordan, I don't think you're racist.

-I think you have a brain tumor. -(laughter)
