• 7:58Tim expresses constant shock at the sheer volume of demons in the entertainment business who hate more successful people.
• 8:36Colin Jost is one of the kindest and most generous people Tim has met, and paid him extra money when hosting at Caroline's.
• 9:02People attack Colin Jost for being Harvard-educated, white, and wealthy, but Tim argues they're just mad about his career and relationship with Scarlett Johansson.
• 9:48This is not the French Revolution—the wealthy and Harvard people are going to win because they control every industry.

• 10:42Tim wishes he didn't like comedy because of the vile people he has to surround himself with in the entertainment industry.
• 11:18People who half-hate Tim know he does the job and they don't, which is what they fear about him.
• 11:49Blaming the system for lack of achievement gives people an excuse to not do anything with their lives.
