Tim jokes he's for both sides of the strike, riffs on the absurdity of networks halting pilots, and escalates into a dark bit about AMPTP suggesting writers 'drown their children' if they can't afford them.
- Tim claims networks don't want to do pilots that don't make it to air anymore
- He insists he's for both the writers and the billionaires because he has integrity
- Tim says he'd poison Adam Conover if David Zaslav gave him something to throw at him
- The middle ground is the only position worth taking in this war between writers and CEOs
- Networks have suggested writers should drown their children if they can't afford them
- He wanted to protest with Mark Ruffalo until the writers got personal about CEO salaries
