Bert tells a story about getting a blowjob from a famous actress who broke off to ask about his production deal, using it to riff on how actors (unlike writer-producers like Amy Poehler or Tina Fey) are basically soulless vessels who just say other people's words, comparing pure actors to Jussie Smollett.
