Join the Emmy Award-winning actor, comedian, and former host of The Late Late Show to hear about his new memoir, Riding the Elephant: A Memoir of Altercations, Humiliations, Hallucinations, and Observations.

He shares stories that are “too graphic for television, too politically incorrect for social media and too meditative for stand-up comedy performance.” He discusses his deep love for his native Scotland, and looks back at a career that’s encompassed everything from multiple tours across North America and beyond, five Grammy-nominated stand-up comedy specials, a bestselling novel, two Daytime Emmy awards for Celebrity Name Game, acting roles in The Drew Carey Show, Winnie the Poo, Brave, and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. And he shares personal stories about fatherhood, growing up and growing older, becoming an American, and much more.

Recorded on May 7, 2019 at the 92nd Street Y.
