“New York State now allows movie theaters to serve alcohol, which is how I’m finally able to enjoy my wife’s little art movies,” Jost, 41, said, wincing as he delivered the never-before-seen material.
“I’m kidding, honey, I love all of your movies and if you ask me you’re an even better ‘Black Widow’ than Coretta Scott King,” he said referring to the late Martin Luther King Jr.’s wife.
To make matters worse, Michael introduced a “poet, author and activist … who was last on this show, Season 3, 46 years ago” to sit next to Jost as he delivered the racist quip.
“Please welcome Dr. Hattie Davis, ladies and gentlemen,” he added, welcoming an actor to the set who was ostensibly a black civil rights activist.
