Summary
Are you smarter than a Hulu cast? Live from NeueHouse Hollywood, Lovett sits down with some of the cast and producers of Hulu’s, “History of the World Part II” and tests all of our elementary school knowledge by seeing if anyone, anyone at all, can name a single historical event. Ike Barinholtz brags about being a friend of the pod, Mitra Jouhari takes a stand for Diet Coke, David Stassen settles the time-old debate: David or Dave?, and Poppy Liu’s rant evokes existential uncertainty as we all ponder whether there is any actual truth behind "The Da Vinci Code” (there isn't… is there?). “History of the World Part II”, is narrated by Mel Brooks, and Ike Barinholtz, Nick Kroll, and Wanda Sykes headline an allstar cast. This new, original series and long-awaited sequel is a four-night event streaming now, only on Hulu.
