Dave Chappelle makes a rare media appearance to have a conversation with his longtime friend Mo Amer. He tears up as he praises the second season of 'Mo' and it's "perfect punchline" of a finale. The two also discuss Chappelle's 'Saturday Night Live' monologues, the time Amer ran into Eric Trump on a plane, and the unexpected timeliness of 'Mo'.

Season two of Mo was truly a masterpiece specially those final two episodes man. But I really do hope he does a season three.

Two things I've observed from Dave: His memory is impeccable and he is a compulsive listener.
