Craig Ferguson (2016)

Hi Craig, I’ve been a huge fan for a long time and still watch The Late Late Show on the internet because I love it so much. Is there a historical topic you’ve wanted to discuss on your new show but couldn’t because it is too depressing, dirty, or in some other way controversial?

Have you ever considered a musical reunion with Peter Capaldi?

What's something not a lot of people know about you?

I made this for you! Enjoy!

Hi Craig,

I consider you one of my personal heroes for overcoming an addiction, your showmanship, and the amount of heart that you brought to the late late show.

I was just wondering who your personal heroes/inspirations are?

Thanks Craig for providing me with a load of laughs when I got back from university. Cheered me up a lot and I can't wait to see the new show!

I was wondering if you are gonna try get Stephen Fry on your show? I loved the LLS with him as a guest and I'm sure he would be so interesting to listen talk about history.

Who's your favourite philosopher and why?

In no more than three sentences, why should I watch Join or Die?

Hi Craig!

(It’s almost 5am in Australia so I’m literally posting this and going straight back to sleep.)

You’re basically one of my favourite people ever and The Late Late Show was incredibly special to me during my uni days. I miss it and you very dearly! I’m excited about Join Or Die though, so I decided to make a subreddit for it (/r/JoinOrDieHIST – I’ll make it look prettier later) for news and discussion of episodes etc. I may have to do some unspeakable things to be able to watch it *muffles voice in my region* but it will happen.

Anyway! I have a few questions:

1. Do you have any plans of touring Australia, ever? (I visited LA for the first time in June and was so sad to have missed your tenure on TLLS, as it was my dream to sit in Lesbian Row)
2. Would you support a campaign for you to be Peter’s next companion in Doctor Who? (Side note – are you two in touch often?)
3. Who’s a guest we should look forward to seeing on Join Or Die?

Thank you for doing this AMA!

Hi Craig,

1. If you were doing Join or Die a 100 years in the future which person or persons alive today do you think you would be talking about? 1000 years?
2. Do any of your regular Late Late Show guests make an appearance?
3. At any point during LLS did you think "this is too weird even for me"?

Hi there Mr. Ferguson! There's a void in my heart that The Late Late Show used to fill. I'm happy you're back on TV in an unscripted format. Congrats on the new show!

My question is if you could travel to any place in any time in history, where and when would you be?

what's the weirdest thing you ever had to do in a show?

Huge fan, Craig.

I HAVE TO KNOW: In the early days before Secretariat got his own stable, did he just wait next to the stage in case you rang the bell and summoned him?

Is today a great day for America?

You've seen genuinely interested in space exploration. Would you ever want to do a PSA for NASA, be involved with a space documentary (provided Morgan Freeman's hasn't already booked them all for infinity), or even travel to space yourself?

Hey Craig, is any part of you jealous of the current crop of late night hosts getting to do material on the 2016 presidential election?

Yo Craig!

What inspired you to get the Join or Die image as a tattoo when you became a citizen, as opposed to other 'Murican imagery?

Do you have any good life advice?

Hi Craig,
What is the most interesting new fact you learned while making "Join or Die" and are there any new stand up comedians you enjoy that we should be on a lookout for?
Really looking forward to watching the new show, best of luck with it.

Hey Craig, awesome to see you here. Are you thinking about getting another tattoo any time soon?

How's Geoff?

Promos have mentioned Plato, Marx, Cicero, Luther, etc. Do I have to know all that stuff in order to fully appreciate Join or Die? I stopped reading those guys when I discovered pulp fiction.

Who was your favorite puppet from the group (not counting Secretariat or Geoff Peterson)?

Loved reading your story in "American on Purpose" years back; any interest in writing a new biopic to recount your recent events?

What has compelled you to look at The world through the lens you're using for this new show? What period of history or what aspect of politics are you most excited to take on?

Hello Craig:

Just wanted to know what made you want to do this show?

Hello Craig and happy anniversary.

I asked Eddie Izzard this same question, and I'd like to see if you can corroborate...

Those segments you did with him on the Late Late Show(apart from the actual interview)...were they scripted? Or improvised?

Also, I really miss Wavy.

You've been an author, a screenwriter, an actor, a talk show host, a game show host, a stand up comedian, and a musician. Is there one you find to have been most satisfying, and if so, why? Likewise, has one been least satisfying?

Who or what would you like to see featured on US currency?

One question:

What is the cleanest joke you know?

Thanks!

What makes attracted to Psychology and Psychiatry as practices? The Late Late show has a really good system of "just talk." How did that come about?

What is the best thing that has come from your celebrity?

Did you figure out what Reddit is?

Hi Craig! Your Late Late Show is my favorite tv thing ever, so thanks for all these years! Question: would you ever come to Europe with your stand up show?

Halò Craig!

If you could meet any 3 people, dead or alive, who would they be?

What's the one thing your tired of people asking you?
