‘Her dad comes out with a shotgun!’ John Oliver’s Last Week Tonight compiles a montage of wild quotes from Phillies commentator John Kruk.
John Oliver ended a recent episode of Last Week Tonight with a montage of utterly bizarre quotes from Philadelphia Phillies commentator John Kruk.
Kruk, who played for the Phillies, has become beloved in the broadcast booth for his habit of going on wild tangents and telling unbelievable stories from his playing days. Last Week Tonight decided to honor Kruk by compiling various clips of him doing exactly that.
John Oliver Demands Every Olympic Medalist Be Awarded a Duck From Here on Out
“That is the Olympics that I want to see next time, or I’m out,” the HBO host says
In addition to getting their respective medals, “Last Week Tonight” host John Oliver thinks every Olympian who makes the podium in the future should also be awarded a duck. Why? Well, because of one Australian Olympian in particular.
As always, Oliver kicked off Sunday night’s episode of the HBO show with a quick recap of the week’s highlights, which included the closing ceremony of this year’s Olympic games. But Oliver was more drawn to the story of Arisa Trew, a 14-year-old who took home the gold for skateboarding.
Following her win, Trew revealed that she had asked her parents if she could get a pet duck if she won, which they agreed to. When asked if she’d teach her duck to skateboard, Trew smiled and confirmed that it would indeed be coming with her to the skate park, and that she’d take it on walks.
You can watch that moment in the video below.
