Stephen welcomes Senator John McCain, Cellist Yo-Yo Ma, plus an interview with and performance by ballerina Misty Copeland.
I wanted to make this post just to point out how neat it was to hear Yo-Yo Ma's cello during the opening credits and throughout the show.
Now I wanna produce my own talk show, make Jessica Williams the host and have Mother Falcon be the in-house band.

I'm not a regular fan of ballet, but that performance was really captivating, probably in no small part because of Misty Copeland being as talented as she is, and that Yo-Yo Ma is amazing with the cello, which I've really grown to appreciate as an instrument in the last few years.

If he continues to be able and willing to pull these kinds of guests, this show is gonna be a powerhouse.
(Only one of my roommates was actively watching this episode, but all three of us got totally sucked in by that Yo-Yo Ma/Misty Copeland performance.)
