Stuart does his best to host an honest show while Luke, who acts as a hype-man and adversary, builds the show up while tearing it down simultaneously. Together, they transport the audience and guests to a late night TV set that is as authentic as it is chaotic and silly. Catch The Late Night Show every month at the Hollywood Improv!
